Are Sagittarius and Pisces a good match?

Tradition calls it a hard match. Plenty of long loves are built on it, because neither of you gets to fall asleep.

I will not hand you a percentage. A number like that is invented, and a Sun sign is one line of a long letter. Two people of any signs can love each other well.

What draws you together

You share an old ruler in Jupiter and a real belief that there is more to the world than this. Sagittarius brings hope, Pisces brings compassion, and you can each find a kind of faith in the other.

The hard part

Sagittarius can be careless with Pisces's tender feelings. Pisces can go quiet and leave Sagittarius confused. Neither of you is naturally the one who deals with the bills.

How your signs sit on the wheel

You sit three signs apart, a ninety-degree angle astrologers call a square. You move through the world the same way, but in elements that do not agree. Tradition names this friction, and friction is also how a fire gets lit.

Fire and water make steam. One of you acts on a feeling while the other is still inside it, and each can feel the other is either too much or not enough.

You are both adapters. You bend around each other gracefully, and it is possible for neither of you ever to say what you actually want.

What each of you is really asking

Sagittarius is asking: Can I love you and keep the horizon? Sagittarius brings faith and fears being fenced in.

Pisces is asking: If I dissolve into this, will you hold the shape of me? Pisces brings tenderness without conditions and fears being too much, and then too little.

The desire under the question

Pisces wants to be gently kept. Sagittarius wants to be gently let go. Ask what a love would look like that did both.
