Where You Click

Both Sagittarius and Pisces are signs that love to mentor. Helping other people sort out their problems is something you’d each drop anything to do–provided the troubled party was receptive to your advice. You’ll both take on a matriarchal role in your family, and this should be a friendly tag-team effort that you willingly share. You struggle with a similar pitfall too: knowing when to step back and let go. At times you can both become busybodies who need a reminder to back off.

You’re both big picture visionaries who love to use your imaginations to dream up large-scale plans and productions. Your Sagittarius mother-in-law has a great head for business and you’re more of the creative force. If there’s a family event to be planned, the two of you will collaborate beautifully, turning the occasion into a magical wonderland for all.

Where You Clash

As a sensitive Pisces, you absorb the moods of everyone around you. At times, this can lead to dark spells and even depression. Your Sagittarius mother-in-law is not empathetic to this part of your personality. She may try to shore you up like a chipper drill team captain. Unfortunately, the words, “get over it already,” only prolong your agony.

Pisces struggles with passivity and it’s not always easy for you to speak up for yourself. Your impulsive Sagittarius mother-in-law is off to the races before you can stop her, leaving you feeling trodden over or dragged along for a ride you never wanted to go on in the first place. Learning to vocalize a dissenting opinion to her will be a big challenge in your relationship. Your tendency may be to play the passive aggressive role–saying yes then canceling plans in the last minute. At times, she simply doesn’t realize how forcefully she can come off. Be direct if you don’t want to do something. She’ll understand and will likely wish you would have spoken up sooner.
