One expands whatever is in front of it; the other establishes what it will actually cost.","The one who says yes and the one who signs for it","Sagittarius enlarges a plan by instinct, and Capricorn works out what the enlarged version will actually require of somebody, and this pairing spends its life on the space between those two operations.\n\nThirty degrees apart, they are neighbours in a semisextile, which supplies no shared element and no shared cross — nothing to translate through, and a border. What is unusual is how visible that border is. One of them ends a stretch of the wheel in enthusiasm and the other begins the next one in accounting, and the changeover is audible in almost every conversation these two have about the coming year.",[12,15,18,21],{"heading":13,"body":14},"Expansion and limit","Sagittarius sees the opportunity and Capricorn sees the obligation attached to it. Both are looking at the same offer.\n\nThe pair is far stronger together than either alone, which both discover slowly and neither admits early. Sagittarius without a Capricorn overcommits and pays for it; Capricorn without a Sagittarius declines things that would have worked.",{"heading":16,"body":17},"What each secretly wants","This is the pairing's odd feature. Capricorn envies the ease with which Sagittarius abandons a bad situation, having spent years in one out of duty. Sagittarius envies the solidity, having noticed that freedom without a base is just movement.\n\nNeither says so. Both would find the admission humiliating, and each occasionally borrows a little of the other's method and pretends it was always there.",{"heading":19,"body":20},"Money, and the argument about it","Sagittarius spends on experience and Capricorn spends on security, and neither is being frivolous by their own standard.\n\nThe practical trouble is not the amounts. It is that Sagittarius makes a financial commitment in conversation, informally, sincerely, and Capricorn hears a contract.\n\nDividing the money is the single most effective thing this pair can do, and both resist it, since each experiences the separation as a comment on their judgement.",{"heading":22,"body":23},"Adjusting a settled plan","Capricorn sets the direction and Sagittarius keeps adjusting it, which suits both until the adjustment happens after Capricorn has told somebody else what will occur.\n\nWhat looks like flexibility from one side looks like a broken arrangement from the other, and neither reading is unfair.","The rub is seriousness. Capricorn experiences Sagittarius's lightness as a refusal to carry any weight; Sagittarius experiences Capricorn's caution as a life organised around things that have not gone wrong yet.\n\nUnderneath is a difference about time. Sagittarius acts on what is available now and trusts that later will look after itself. Capricorn is always partly in a future that has to be secured. Neither one is going to convert, and the pairs that do best are the ones where each has stopped trying to. What replaces the persuasion is usually a division of territory that both would once have found insulting and both come to rely on.",[26,29,32],{"q":27,"a":28},"Are Sagittarius and Capricorn compatible?","They are an unlikely combination that works well in practice and rarely on paper. Nothing structural is shared, so nothing here is instinctive. What each supplies is precisely what the other lacks, provided neither treats their own setting as the correct one.",{"q":30,"a":31},"Why does Capricorn find Sagittarius unreliable?","Because commitments are made in the same tone as ideas, and Capricorn cannot hear the difference. Sagittarius means it at the time and considers a change of circumstances a reasonable ground for revision. Marking which sentences are promises removes most of the difficulty.",{"q":33,"a":34},"What does a semisextile mean between two signs?","It is the 30-degree gap between adjacent signs, and it gives a pair no shared element, cross or instinct. The two are side by side without being alike, which is why this angle tends to produce a handover rather than a partnership of equals.","b",1789041548474]
