Scorpio and Sagittarius sit next to each other in the zodiac, yet they have little in common at first. Scorpio is a fixed water sign, Sagittarius a mutable fire sign. Scorpio goes deep into things and stays there. Sagittarius wants to move on and see what is around the corner. The first impression is contradictory: one watches quietly, the other talks and laughs.

Love and relationship
In a relationship, Scorpio is drawn to the freedom of Sagittarius, and Sagittarius to the seriousness of Scorpio. The start can be exciting, since each sees something the other lacks. In daily life, Scorpio wants closeness, honesty and certainty. Sagittarius needs space, trips and the right to go out alone sometimes. Scorpio easily reads carefree as careless. Sagittarius feels control in Scorpio's questions. If each speaks honestly about their need, they can reach an agreement.
Friendship
As friends they fit better than as partners, because expectations are lower. Sagittarius brings ideas, travel plans and new acquaintances to the group. Scorpio is the one people call when things get serious. Together they go hiking, argue about films and talk for hours about the meaning of life. Honesty holds the friendship: Sagittarius says what it thinks, and Scorpio values that. Trouble starts when Sagittarius forgets a promise, because Scorpio remembers it for a very long time.
Work and money
At work this pair is tricky. Scorpio plans thoroughly and holds the chosen course. Sagittarius changes the plan when a better idea comes along. Scorpio calls that unreliable, Sagittarius calls Scorpio rigid. Roles should be clear: Scorpio takes the details and the money, Sagittarius looks for new options and clients. They speak different languages about deadlines. For Scorpio a deadline is a promise, while Sagittarius sees it more as a suggestion.
Where it rubs
A quarrel usually starts with something small. Sagittarius says something bluntly and without thinking, and Scorpio takes it personally. Then Scorpio goes silent for days, and Sagittarius cannot work out what happened. To Sagittarius the matter is long over, while for Scorpio it is only beginning. Sagittarius suspects Scorpio of keeping secrets. Scorpio suspects Sagittarius does not take them seriously. Each expects the other to act the way they would act themselves.
Advice
If you are Scorpio, say what bothers you before it grows for days. If you are Sagittarius, ask whether the other is in the mood before you joke. Agree that silence lasts no longer than a day, and keep to it. Give the other space without explanations, but say when you will be back. Settle who decides what, so you do not have to argue about every single thing again.
