Sagittarius Sun, Scorpio Moon, Capricorn Rising
The Smoldering Arrow, with Capricorn at the front door.
Packs light, talks big, chases the horizon
A Sagittarius Sun makes you an explorer. New places, big ideas and honest conversations light you up. You want to be seen as adventurous, open-minded and fun, the friend who always has a story and a plan for the next trip.

With the Moon in Scorpio, your feelings run deep and private. You need trust before you open up, and once you do, your loyalty is total. You notice what people are hiding, and you remember who showed up for you when things got hard.

Capricorn Rising gives you a composed, capable first impression. You approach life seriously and strategically, with an eye on long-term goals. People often assume you are older or more senior than you are, and then discover your very dry sense of humor.
More on Capricorn RisingHow the three combine
Your Sun, Moon and Rising sit in three different elements: fire for who you are becoming, water for what you need, and earth for how you meet the world. People who know one side of you may not recognize the others, and that range is one of your strengths.
One cardinal, one fixed and one mutable placement: you can start, sustain and adapt, and you tend to switch gear depending on who you are with.
Your Sun and Moon: The Smoldering Arrow
Fire Sun, water Moon, and the two work at very different depths. The Sagittarius Sun wants openness, laughter and room to roam. The Scorpio Moon needs intensity, trust and a firm grip on what it shares. At a party you laugh louder than anyone, and you also notice who left early and exactly why. Mutable Sun, fixed Moon: your plans shift easily, while your feelings, once set, barely move. You chase big questions with real hunger, and you tend to go past the comfortable answer toward whatever is hidden underneath it.
Capricorn Rising in front of it
People tend to take you seriously right away. You carry yourself with quiet authority and speak with care. Strangers read you as competent, reserved and possibly in charge; new coworkers may ask you questions you have no official reason to answer. You come across as trustworthy. Some find you hard to approach at first, until a well-timed deadpan joke breaks the ice.
Rising and Sun: Neighboring signs, 30 degrees apart. Different elements and a different pace: each holds something the other has just left behind.
Rising and Moon: Two signs apart, 60 degrees. Elements that feed each other, so talk comes easily and help is offered without being asked.
People see someone steady and in control. Inside, you may feel the weight of expectations more than you show, and you can doubt yourself while looking completely sure. The serious front protects a softer, funnier person. Letting people see you be silly, or admitting you are tired, often brings you closer to them.
