• Deal‑sealers: clear boundaries + a shared adventure pipeline (next trip, next mission, next skill).

Communication & Mind

• Style contrast: Scorpio reads subtext; Sagittarius speaks in big, blunt headlines. Translate: ask, “What did you intend?”
• Rules of engagement:
  • One mic at a time; no interrupting. Complex topics get notes first.
  • Use a “parking lot” list for off‑topic ideas so Sagittarius feels heard and Scorpio stays focused.
  • Weekly truth check‑in: what’s exciting, what’s heavy, what needs deciding.
• Caution: Mars square Mercury inflames tone. Slow down, mirror back, then respond.

Emotional Compatibility (Moon Matters)

• Scorpio emotes privately and deeply; Sagittarius emotes openly and moves on quickly. Validate first, fix later.
• Moon aspects to monitor:
  • Moon trine Moon: easy empathy, quick recovery from conflicts.
  • Moon square Moon: different needs timing; schedule solo recharge.

• Best aspects:
  • Venus trine Mars: desire flows both ways.
  • Venus conjunction Mars: strong chemistry, little warm‑up needed.
• Turn‑ons: honest dirty talk, novelty settings, trust rituals that make vulnerability safe.
• Turn‑offs: broken privacy (Scorpio) and routine/jealous control (Sagittarius). Negotiate openness clearly.

Trust & Boundaries

• Transparency tool: share location/itinerary for freedom without secrecy. First mention of Neptune: watch for vagueness, late replies, or drifting stories—clarify facts kindly.
• Hard aspects like Mars square Mercury can make defensiveness feel like deception. Ask for details, not confessions.
• Boundary pact: list “private vault” topics (Scorpio) and “non‑negotiable freedom” items (Sagittarius). Revisit monthly.
• Repair: if trust is nicked, agree on one measurable behavior for 30 days (check‑ins, shared calendar, spending log).

Daily Life & Routines

• Flow: Scorpio prefers stable routines; Sagittarius thrives with flexible blocks. Use a shared calendar with “fixed anchors” and “wildcards.”
• Home: zones—quiet/private (Scorpio) and open/messy/creative (Sagittarius). Headphones and doors save love.
• Health: intense workouts for two (sculpt + sweat) satisfy Mars and Jupiter; add solo days to avoid crowding.
• Conflict hygiene: time‑out word; 24‑hour revisit rule; decision deadlines to prevent simmering resentments.

Working Together & Money

• Use the money houses:
  • 2nd house: personal income values—set a shared savings % and a “fun money” %.
  • 6th house: daily work systems—assign roles; automate bills.
  • 10th house: public goals—pick one flagship project per quarter.
• Career combo ideas: investigative journalism, documentary travel, crisis response, venture building, research‑driven startups.
