Expert Interview} They bond pretty quickly over the fact that they're both super-spontaneous (a trait that can annoy other signs).
- Pisces: Be willing to go out on adventures in the real world—you have a tendency to get lost in your imagination, while your Sagittarius pal wants to make their dreams a reality.
- Sagittarius: Be patient with your Pisces friend when they'd rather have a quiet night in. With that Piscean imagination, you can have some of your wildest adventures without ever leaving the house.

As friends, they get along well because they know they always have each other's best interests in mind.

- Sagittarius: Help your Pisces friend be more assertive when you notice that they're trying to avoid conflict. They'll appreciate your support and you can help them feel more confident about standing their ground when something bothers them.

- Sagittarius: Pay close attention to your Pisces friend. They can be pretty subtle and won't always tell you straight-up when you've said something that rubs them the wrong way. If you're worried you've hurt them, just ask!

Expert Interview} While fiery Sagittarius gets emotional as well, they tend to have a tougher exterior and don't let things get to them. And when an archer does get upset, they don't dwell on it quite as long as their fish friend might. Open conversations are really important for these two to strengthen their emotional bond.
- Pisces: Learn to interpret when your Sagittarius friend is just kidding around with you and when they're being serious. Ask them questions and let them know when you're confused about something they've said.
- Sagittarius: Practice thinking before you speak to your Pisces friend, rather than just saying the first thing that pops into your head. Be considerate of their sensitivity and apologize sincerely if you unintentionally hurt them.

- Sagittarius: Open your mind and your heart to your Pisces friend and they'll do the same. Your differences mean that you have a lot to learn from each other.

1
Sagittarius might feel that Pisces is too sensitive and easily offended. At times, Sagittarius just wants to tell their Pisces friend to lighten up a bit. A lot of things they mean as jokes get taken the wrong way by their highly emotional friend, which can lead to some tense situations between them. Sagittarius also tends to be pretty blunt and might say things the sensitive Pisces takes more personally than they should.
- As Pisces spends more time with their Sagittarius friend, they'll get a better understanding of when the archer is just messing around. Talking about misunderstandings can also help.
- It helps if Pisces tells Sagittarius how a comment made them feel, rather than stuffing it down and keeping it inside. Often, Sagittarius didn't mean what Pisces thought they did—they'd hate to know they'd unintentionally hurt their friend!

Pisces might find their Sagittarius friend's energy overwhelming. If Pisces feels like their Sagittarius friend is being aggressive or overbearing, they're going to run for the hills.^{[5]

Expert Interview} As a fire sign, Sagittarius can seem a little hot-headed at times, which Pisces could find hard to handle. But it's not just the angry energy—Sagittarius can sometimes have too much energy in general for their calm, laid-back Piscean pal.
- Sagittarius needs to learn how to control their energy and keep their outbursts to a minimum around their Pisces friend. This will keep Pisces from getting too overwhelmed.
- Pisces can help Sagittarius calm down and go with the flow a little more, rather than feeling like they have to be "go-go-go" all the time. This will help Pisces feel more comfortable around their favorite archer.
