AstrologgerSagittarius Compatibility
Nov 22 – Dec 21 · Mutable Fire sign ruled by Jupiter
How Sagittarius pairs with each of the twelve signs in love, friendship and work. Every score below is computed from the same three real relationships — element, modality and ruling planet — so it reads the same whichever partner you start from. Sagittarius’s strongest match is Leo at 92%; the one that asks for the most deliberate effort is Cancer at 57%.

Sagittarius in Vedic matching: the rashi axes
Indian matchmaking does not read elements — it counts the distance from one rashi to the other. Two of those distances, the 6/8 shadashtak and the 2/12 dwirdwadash, are the combinations Bhakoot koota scores zero of its seven points; the 5/9 nav pancham trine is the one it treats as most harmonious. Counted from Sagittarius:
- Nav Pancham — Aries, Leo
- Samsaptak — Gemini
- Kendra — Virgo, Pisces
- Trishadaya — Libra, Aquarius
- Shadashtak — Taurus, Cancer
- Dwirdwadash — Scorpio, Capricorn
One caveat worth repeating: Bhakoot is judged on the two Moon signs, not sun signs. Use it here as an indication of the rashi relationship, and run full kundli matching on both birth charts before treating any of it as a verdict.
Why Sagittarius matches the way it does
Leo (fire) and Sagittarius (fire) draw on the same fire element, which traditionally reads as an easy, instinctive rapport — both are warm, direct and energised by action. Speaking the same elemental language, they rarely have to explain their basic motives to each other. The watch-point is that a shared temperament can double down on the same blind spots rather than balancing them.
Leo answers to the Sun while Sagittarius answers to Jupiter, so their underlying motivations pull in contrasting directions. Traditionally that contrast is workable — even enriching — when each treats the other's ruling instinct as a different lens rather than a flaw.
Common questions
Which sign is most compatible with Sagittarius?
On element, modality and ruling-planet relationships, Sagittarius's strongest overall match is Leo at 92%. Aries (91%) and Gemini (91%) follow closely. Sun-sign matching is a starting point, not a verdict — a full chart comparison weighs Moon, Venus and the 7th house too.
Which sign is least compatible with Sagittarius?
Cancer scores lowest at 57%. A low score means the two temperaments need more deliberate effort, not that the relationship cannot work — plenty of long marriages sit on "difficult" sun-sign pairings.
What makes Sagittarius compatible with another sign?
Sagittarius is a Mutable Fire sign ruled by Jupiter. Compatibility here is computed from three real relationships: how the two elements interact, whether the modalities clash or cooperate, and how the ruling planets relate. That is why the scores are the same whichever order you read the pair in.
