Sagittarius Compatibility

Sagittarius (usually November 22 to December 21) is a mutable fire sign ruled by Jupiter.

Sagittarius compatibility chart

Leo and Aries are Sagittarius's best matches, tied at the top: the other two fire signs. Libra and Aquarius, the air sextiles, tie just behind them. Cancer is the worst match, with Taurus just above it, and Virgo and Pisces come next. For marriage the answer is narrower: Leo stands alone at the top.

Score Sagittarius with any sign

Two birth dates give a Full chart score across both whole charts, with no birth time and no account needed. For a Sign score, switch to Simple, where Sagittarius is filled in and you pick the other Sun sign.

Two birth dates are enough.

Simple runs in your browser. Full chart sends both people's birth details to our server and to our chart provider, astrology-api.io, to calculate the result, and Mapbox receives place searches. We keep the computed result under a one-way code, with no birth date or place text. No account is needed. After a Full chart result, a signup link carries both people, and that browser stores their details. The app stops reading that copy after 30 minutes. Privacy policy.

What does each sign give a Sagittarius, and what does it ask back?

Leo wants to be chosen in front of people. Taurus wants you home at the hour you promised. Every sign gives a Sagittarius something and asks for something back, and for a sign that guards its freedom, the ask usually decides a match more than the score does.

Start with the asks you'd struggle to keep up: coming home on time, making a decision and sticking to it, explaining a changed plan. Each sign's card above names its ask next to what it gives. Pick the signs whose ask you could meet in an ordinary week as well as a good one, and then look at what they give. If none of the top four's asks appeals, read the middle of the chart before you choose by score.

Sagittarius worst match: why Cancer comes last and Virgo doesn't

Two signs ask a Sagittarius to stay put, and they're the two at the bottom: Cancer last, Taurus just above it. Both are five signs away, a quincunx, with no element, mode or easy angle in common, so every area scores low. Cancer wants you home for the close circle it looks after, and Taurus wants you back at the hour you promised.

Other lists often put Virgo at the bottom instead. JobCannon, read November 10, 2026, ranked Virgo and Pisces lowest for Sagittarius, with Cancer and Taurus tied just above them. Our chart has it the other way round. Virgo and Pisces square Sagittarius, and a square loses on talk and marriage but keeps some heat: sex is a good score with both, and that lifts them past the two quincunxes. The weights are under how the score is built.

Both squares still carry a challenging marriage score. With Virgo the fight is over getting the facts right, and with Pisces it's over what each of you believes.

Sagittarius and commitment: which ask can you live with?

Some asks cost you time. Others cost you the option to change your mind. Here they are in four groups, from the ones a Sagittarius usually finds easiest to the ones it finds hardest.

If you know which ask ended a past relationship, read that group twice before you choose again.

Sagittarius marriage compatibility: Leo, then Aries

Leo has the top marriage score on the Sagittarius chart, alone, with Aries a step behind and Aquarius and Libra after that. Leo's ask, to be chosen out loud, is one a Sagittarius gives easily on a good day, and two fire signs who both like a big gesture tend to keep giving it. Aries keeps up just as well, and the thing that pair lacks is someone who says wait.

Marriage is the lowest area, or tied for lowest, with eleven of the twelve signs. Taurus is the one exception, and only because its love and talk scores are lower still. So the useful marriage question for a Sagittarius is which ask you'd still meet gladly once the novelty has gone. The lowest marriage scores belong to Cancer, Virgo and Pisces, and two Sagittarians have the lowest of the top five.

Sagittarius best friend: Aries and Libra

Aries and Libra tie for the top friendship score, with Leo and Aquarius level just behind and another Sagittarius next. Libra brings the best talk on the chart as well. Aries is the friend who comes along, and Libra the one who stays for the conversation afterward. What the best of them give back is enthusiasm: someone who wants to learn the new thing with you, and who lifts you when a plan falls through. Taurus, Cancer and Virgo share the lowest friendship score, so those friendships tend to run on long history more than shared plans.

Between relatives, astrologers read two Moon signs side by side as much as two Suns, and a birth time and place give you the Moon and rising sign to start from.

Sagittarius man or woman: where Venus and Mars come in

A Sagittarius woman and a Sagittarius man read the same chart, with a partner of any gender, since the score uses Sun signs only. The asks shift with Venus, though. On Sagittarius Sun dates in our sample, Venus was more often in Scorpio than in Sagittarius, with Capricorn next. A Sagittarius with Venus in Scorpio may want more closeness than the Sun suggests, and one with Venus in Capricorn is often the partner asking for the plan. Look up the Venus sign for any birthday, then the Mars sign for how each of you pursues.

Gemini, the sign straight across the wheel, comes sixth overall, just below another Sagittarius, with sex its top area by a long way and marriage its lowest.

How the Sagittarius score works

We score two signs from four traditional relationships: the distance between them, their elements, their modalities and their ruling planets. Each area weighs them differently, and the headline score is the average of the five areas. Sagittarius scores highest with the two other signs of its element (the trines), then with the two signs a sextile away, and lowest with the signs it squares or sits five signs from.

The distance sets the base for every area: a trine or sextile starts high, a square or quincunx starts low, and an opposition starts high for sex and lower for friendship. Elements shift it (two air signs talk easily, two fire signs run hot), as do modalities (two fixed signs are loyal and slow to give way). Two different signs with the same ruling planet, a Venus-ruled sign with a Mars-ruled sign, or the Sun with the Moon add a little more. Every Sun-sign pairing on ZodiScope's compatibility pages uses the same rules, so the Sagittarius chart above can be compared with any other pairing here.

Venus, Mercury and Mars on Sagittarius Sun dates

Uranus, now in Gemini, stands opposite the Sun once in every Sagittarius season from November 25, 2026 to December 20, 2032. Saturn, Uranus, Neptune or Pluto was in Sagittarius on 956 of the 1,655 Sagittarius Sun dates in our 1950–2005 sample, more than half, a share only Scorpio beats. To see where those slower planets sit for one birthday, pull up the whole chart for that date.

How we calculated the date sample

We calculated Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars positions at noon UTC on each of the 20,454 calendar dates from 1 January 1950 to 31 December 2005, using PyEphem 4.2.1. Each date has equal weight. Apparent geocentric positions are converted to ecliptic longitude for that date and divided into twelve 30° tropical signs.

We group the dates by Sun sign, then count the share with Mercury, Venus or Mars in each sign. Pair estimates multiply those rounded shares, assuming two independent date draws with no age-gap restriction. For example, 20.5% of Taurus Sun dates and 20.4% of Cancer Sun dates have Venus in the same sign as the Sun: 0.205 × 0.204 × 100 gives about 4.2% for both placements together.

Shares are rounded to one decimal place and may not sum to exactly 100%. For two people with the same Sun sign, reversed Venus combinations are combined. These are frequencies in a date sample, not birth-population statistics or observations of couples.

Sagittarius compatibility questions

Can a Sagittarius commit to anyone?

Yes, and most easily to Leo, which has the top marriage score on the Sagittarius chart, then to Aries. What usually goes wrong is an ask nobody named at the start: be home more, explain each plan, decide early. A Sagittarius who hears the ask up front and agrees to it tends to keep it. For how a Sagittarius pursues and how fast, read the Sagittarius Mars and its pace in love.

What is Sagittarius's worst match?

Cancer is Sagittarius's worst match, last on the chart, with Taurus just above it. Both sit five signs away and share no element or mode with Sagittarius, and both ask a Sagittarius to stay put. Virgo and Pisces come next. They square Sagittarius, which costs talk and marriage, but sex scores good with both of them.

Who will keep up with a Sagittarius as a friend?

Aries or Libra, tied for the top friendship score. Aries matches your speed, and Libra keeps the conversation going long after the plan falls through. Leo and Aquarius are level just behind them. Taurus, Cancer and Virgo share the lowest friendship score.
