What signs are compatible with Sagittarius?

A travel-loving Sagittarius should pair with someone equally spontaneous who loves the outdoors.

Best matches:

• Aries – both are fun-loving signs who love socialising, adventures, and new challenges. They are also both naturally optimistic, making a harmonious, positive relationship
• Aquarius – Aquariuns are inventive, and they both thrive on change and variety. They’re also both interesting people, who love in-depth discussions
• Leo – both are free-spirited and love adventure, and they’re compatible in the bedroom too as they have similar sex drives, making for a pleasurable relationship

Worst matches:

• Taurus – those with a Taurus star sign tend to stick close to home, which will clash with an adventure loving Sagittarius
• Capricorn – Capricorns are practical, and may feel like they have to take responsibility for a Sagittarius partner
• Virgo – Virgos need security and commitment, and can be too perfectionist for a flighty Sagittarius

Where does the Zodiac come from?

The Zodiac is the term used to describe the circle of 12 divisions of celestial longitude that are centered upon the path of the sun.

The 12 divisions share the names we know as our star signs.

The term zodiac derives from Latin zōdiacus – meaning “circle of animals”.

Throughout history, the zodiac has been used to predict or echo characteristics of personality.
