When Sagittarius and Capricorn unite in a love affair, things can start slowly and they may feel that they don't have much to gain from the other.

In a way, Sagittarius and Capricorn are opposites: Sagittarius is easy-going, capricious, seeks knowledge for its own sake, always jumps into new things and is typically impatient. Capricorn is detail-oriented and passive, even shy, and is always looking ahead to the next project. Their differences can forge a stronger relationship in the long term, and there are huge amounts that each partner can learn from the other.

At the beginning of their relationship, Sagittarius and Capricorn may only be able to see each other's flaws. Sagittarius can sometimes seem undisciplined, and Capricorn can seem pompous and elitist. But once they stop focusing on each other's faults and look at their respective strengths, they will see a vast array of attractive qualities. Sagittarius can show Capricorn adventure and excitement, and can offer a glimpse of the freedom so often missing from Capricorn's life. Capricorn teaches Sagittarius to pay attention to detail, uncovers the knowledge that the little things are important and helps them to harness their random energy. Sagittarius may see Capricorn as too responsible, and will teach their partner to lighten up. The Capricorn can accuse the Sagittarian of being reckless and impulsive, and can help them to become well-mannered.

Sagittarius is ruled by the Planet Jupiter and Capricorn follows the Planet Saturn. Jupiter is about higher education, philosophy, expanding knowledge and good fortune that sometimes leads to excess. Saturn is the ruler of hard work, assiduity, ambition and responsibility. Their effects on each other can be positive and tend to bring out the best aspects of each other. Both signs need to take a step back to appreciate their partner's approach, Sagittarius can teach Capricorn to be more spontaneous, while at the same time gaining stability from Capricorn's rational perspective.

Sagittarius is a Fire Sign and Capricorn is an Earth Sign. Sagittarius starts projects after philosophical evaluation, while Capricorn adopts a more practical and factual approach. Capricorn will think about the consequences of their activities, while Sagittarius likes to explore only for their own personal satisfaction. Although these partners may have difficulties arising from their moral diversity, when they put their differences aside, they make an excellent couple due to their complementary and well-rounded nature.

Sagittarius is a mutable sign and Capricorn is a cardinal sign. Sagittarius is not necessarily a leader or motivating force; when they have a good idea and see a way to contribute, they like to do their bit. Capricorns, on the other hand, come up with ideas and assign roles to others. Sagittarius and Capricorn can work towards the same goals with great success due to the lack of conflict over roles.

What's the best aspect of the Sagittarius-Capricorn relationship? It's their effectiveness in working out small bumps in the road. When they overcome their initial resistance to each other, this pair will see how much they have to gain from each other. Their personalities, different in many ways, make them a highly effective love match.
