Sagittarius Man and Scorpio Woman Relationship Dynamics

Mars and Jupiter are friends, which is the only thing holding this together. They respect each other's strength. He admires her intensity, and she admires his honesty. However, the application is different. Jupiter expands; Mars (in Scorpio) contracts/focuses. He wants to invite the world in; she wants to lock the world out to be alone with him.

Fire and Water create steam. There is passion, but it is volatile. Her Water (emotions/possessiveness) threatens to extinguish his Fire (optimism/freedom). He feels suffocated by her need for deep emotional bonding and secrecy. She feels insecure because of his need to roam and his casual nature. He is too light for her; she is too heavy for him.

The Scorpio woman is Fixed—she wants commitment, definition, and permanence. The Sagittarius man is Dual—he wants options and fluidity. He cannot give her the absolute assurance she needs because his nature is to wander. Her attempts to control him (Fixed) result in him fleeing (Dual). It is a chase dynamic that exhausts both.

This is a relationship of drain. Scorpio is the 12th from Sagittarius (loss/dissolution). She represents a loss of his identity and freedom; he feels he loses himself in her depths. Sagittarius is the 2nd from Scorpio. She sees him as a resource or something to possess, but he slips through her fingers. The energy flows unevenly, often leaving the Sagittarius man feeling drained and the Scorpio woman feeling empty.
