Scores are a simple guide based on the angle between your signs and your elements. Real compatibility depends on whole charts — compare Moon and Venus signs too.
Elements and Modalities: Fire + Earth
Fire and earth move at different speeds. The fire sign wants to leap; the earth sign wants a plan. When it works, earth gives fire's ideas a foundation and fire gives earth's plans a spark — but patience is needed on both sides.
A cardinal sign leads and a mutable sign adapts. Plans get made and adjusted with ease; just ensure the mutable partner's input isn't overridden by the cardinal partner's speed.
Ruling Planets
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter: Jupiter gives optimism, generosity and a thirst for meaning. Capricorn is ruled by Saturn: Saturn gives ambition, caution and a sense of duty. In the relationship, Jupiter and Saturn have to find a rhythm that honours both.
Love & Attraction
Attraction can be subtle at first and deepen as you appreciate how differently you approach life.
Sagittarius loves adventurous energy and needs freedom, adventure and honesty; Capricorn needs respect, reliability and shared goals.
What Each Sign Wants in Love
Through Sagittarius's eyes: Sagittarius loves freely and generously. They need a partner who is also a travel companion — curious, independent and up for growth.
Through Capricorn's eyes: Capricorn loves seriously and steadily. They show devotion through commitment, support and building a future together — romance grows with trust.
Communication
