Scorpio and Capricorn compatibility
Two people who do not need to be told twice.
Scorpio: October 23 – November 21. Capricorn: December 22 – January 19.
Are Scorpio and Capricorn a good match?
Tradition calls it a good match, with one warning: it is so pleasant that the real conversation can wait for years.
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
This is a formidable match. You both have enormous discipline and a great appetite for what is real, and you both keep your own counsel. Once you trust each other, you can accomplish almost anything together.
The hard part
You can both wall yourselves in. Control is the shared temptation, and either of you can turn cold when threatened. A relationship can become a very well-run alliance without much warmth.
How your signs sit on the wheel
You sit two signs apart, a sixty-degree angle astrologers call a sextile. The tradition counts this as friendly: your elements feed each other without either having to become the other. The door is open, but it asks to be walked through.
Earth holds water. One of you gives the other a shore, and the other keeps the ground from going dry. It is one of the most naturally tender combinations there is.
One of you starts things and the other keeps them. That is a working partnership, as long as neither mistakes it for a contest of wills.
What each of you is really asking
Scorpio is asking: Can you bear all of it, and stay? Scorpio brings depth and fears being betrayed after handing over the keys.
Capricorn is asking: Is it all right to set the weight down with you? Capricorn brings staying power and fears being a fool for trusting.
The desire under the question
Each of you wants one person you do not have to be strong around. Ask who goes first.
