They form a sextile: compatible elements that spark each other without cancelling each other out.

What is love like between Scorpio and Capricorn?

Earth and water complete each other: water gives earth sensitivity and earth gives water security, and the relationship grows calmly and deeply. A Scorpio loves intensely and completely, and needs absolute loyalty. A Capricorn loves seriously and with commitment, and shows it by building a future together.

And friendship?

It is a friendship of mutual care, the kind where you can count on each other. A Scorpio is the friend of a chosen few, but for life, who keeps secrets like no one else; a Capricorn is the reliable friend of few words who is there when needed.

And working together?

A cardinal sign starts things and a fixed sign keeps them going: a good working pair, if the first does not grow impatient with the second’s pace. A Scorpio is strategic and persistent and gets to the bottom of things; a Capricorn is ambitious and disciplined and thinks long-term.

Where might they stumble?

The challenge is that the relationship becomes so easy that nobody makes an effort to help it grow. A Scorpio can become suspicious or possessive when feeling insecure; a Capricorn can put duty before affection and seem distant.

One piece of advice for both

Use the ease to plan new things together, rather than settling into comfort.
