We investigate the pressure-induced evolution of crystal structure and magnetism in the kagome ferromagnet Fe$$_3$$Sn$$_2$$ by combining X-ray diffraction, X-ray Emission Spectroscopy, X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism, and spin-polarized density functional theory calculations. X-ray diffraction reveals a structural phase transition above $$\sim$$20~GPa, which coincides with a pronounced reduction of the local Fe magnetic moment evidenced by X-ray emission spectroscopy, indicating a high-spin to low-spin transition. While XES probes the amplitude of the local moment, XMCD provides direct information on the orientation of the ordered magnetic moments and uncovers a rich pressure--temperature magnetic phase diagram. At room temperature, a collinear ferromagnetic phase with moments aligned along the $$c$$ axis persists up to the structural transition. At low temperature, a tilted magnetic configuration remains stable to significantly higher pressures, while at intermediate temperatures pressure stabilizes the low-temperature magnetic phase at the expense of the high-temperature one. Spin-polarized first-principles calculations show that, although isotropic ferromagnetic exchange interactions remain robust under compression, pressure enhances spin--orbit--driven magnetic anisotropy and Dzyaloshinskii--Moriya interactions, favoring non-collinear magnetic configurations. Our results demonstrate that pressure reshapes the magnetic energy landscape of Fe$$_3$$Sn$$_2$$ by coupling lattice, spin state, and relativistic magnetic interactions, establishing hydrostatic pressure as an effective control parameter to engineer magnetic anisotropy and potentially topological phases in kagome materials.
