The peculiarly appealing energy between firstwest and secondwest has plenty of potential to foster a creative and nourishing connection, which may counterbalance the more unsettling influence of the firsteast and secondeast.

Western Zodiac
Aquarius and Virgo
Compatibility overview
The match between firstwest and secondwest is one of Western astrology's most puzzling. Neither directly confrontational nor in consistent harmony, these two signs tend to approach each other with mystified curiosity. True, it is sometimes claimed they have almost nothing in common. But such a limited interpretation misses the great potential of this combination, especially for creative enterprises.

Aquarius and Virgo are five signs apart, which makes this pairing a Quincunx (or inconjunct) aspect. The Quincunx is generally a minor aspect, so from the beginning the energy here is softer and more subtle than other influences can be.
The classical view is that the 150° angle between these two signs means they are completely foreign to one another. This will likely be true to an extent, because the respective elements are famously contrary. Where the Air sign Aquarius is fundamentally abstract and universal in outlook, Virgo is an Earth sign with their feet planted firmly on the ground. Early conversations may thus suggest little potential for common ground. Aquarius' cerebral attitudes, especially their unquestioning acceptance of others and tendency towards unorthodox behaviour, may appear a world away from Virgo's goal-oriented planning and strict adherence to structure. Importantly, however, these differences are often more quizzical than unsettling. If the relationship deepens, fascinating synergies may be revealed.
Aquarius' Fixed, productivity-focused modality is a wonderful match for Virgo's more reflective, Mutable nature. Hence, while the instincts of these signs may be radically different, they have the potential to collaborate extremely effectively. They should probably take responsibility for different aspects of any project, since working hands-on together may bring their polarized instincts to a head. But if they can compartmentalize effectively, their joint efforts will benefit hugely from their divergent energies. Creative ventures especially are favoured by this Quincunx energy.
If Aquarius and Virgo understand just how different their impulses are, and make sure to address problems as they arise rather than allowing them to smoulder in the background, this connection can be a true secret weapon for professional and even intimate relationships.

Noah Baumbach (9/3/1969, Virgo Rooster), Jennifer Jason Leigh (2/5/1962, Aquarius Tiger) : Actor/screenwriter Leigh and director/screenwriter Baumbach married in 2005 and separated in 2010.

Speaking in 2007, Leigh described: "We’re really well suited for each other. It’s kind of unbelievable to me. It’s what I always wanted in a relationship." Later that year, discussing her performance in Margot at the Wedding, https://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/11/movies/11lim.htmlLeigh said: "I had to abandon acting in a way. Noah’s probably the only person I could ever trust enough to get that out of me."
Richard Gere (8/31/1949, Virgo Ox), Alejandra Silva (2/16/1983, Aquarius Pig) : The actor and the publicist/activist married in 2018. Silva described in 2020: "[Gere] is the most humble, sensitive, affectionate, attentive, funny, generous man that I’ve ever met. What can I say? I’m so in love!"
Baz Luhrmann (9/17/1962, Virgo Tiger), Catherine Martin (1/26/1965, Aquarius Dragon) : The film director and costume designer married in 1997 and have two children together. They have also collaborated extensively on the films including Moulin Rouge!, The Great Gatsby, and Elvis. Described as "a delight to be around" by Vogue's Anna Wintour, Luhrmann has explained the couple's creative process as follows: "I see things in pictures and I always have. I start with an idea, a lot of collages, and very quickly CM and I get into these philosophical discussions, which in turn begins the research. We are almost like detectives, the thinking is so intense and deep, we live in it."
Rupert Grint (8/24/1988, Virgo Dragon), Georgia Groome (2/11/1992, Aquarius Monkey) : The two actors have been partners since 2011 and have a daughter together. They were together for seven years before disclosing their relationship publicly. Grint has said: "It’s a very natural thing - we’re just best friends. We’re kind of the same person; we think the same way. That’s always made it work - that’s why it’s lasted. It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what it is, but it works and it’s great."
Beyoncé (9/4/1981, Virgo Rooster), Kelly Rowland (2/11/1981, Aquarius Rooster) : The two celebrated musicians and founding members of Destiny's Child have known each other since they were nine. Rowland has described: "[Beyoncé and I] grew up in this industry together; we’ve shared ups and downs and we are closer than ever. I can tell her anything and she’ll never judge me. She’s a real friend: genuine, loyal and trustworthy. She’s also one of the sweetest people you ever did meet...I’d be lying if I said I didn’t look up to her as an artist; she has ignited fire inside so many women."

Rabbit and Dragon
Compatibility overview
The Chinese zodiac—with its emphasis on year-long rather than month-long time intervals—is known for not pulling punches. This is especially true for the so-called Adversary matches, which include the firsteast and secondeast. There is some deeply troublesome energy here, and clashes or brooding disquiet may be difficult to avoid.

This is a case of conflicting styles, if ever there was one. Where the Rabbit is celebrated for their usually impeccable manners and peaceful disposition, the Dragon inspires through audacious intensity. Mixing the two together has the potential to bring out the worst in both.
In this combination, the Rabbit may become evasive, stressed, or fawning. The Dragon can be nasty, cruel, or obnoxious. The uniquely problematic nature of Adversary matches like this one arises in part because the energy is more ambiguous than direct. Rather than building to a head-on confrontation, the tension here is more likely to fester. These two tend to alternate uncomfortably between secretiveness and bluntness, doting and betrayal, reticence and attention-seeking. The quicksand quality to interactions between these two is a particular danger, meaning that even attempts at conciliation often wind up simply making matters worse.
In short, this energy combination can be a challenge for the parties themselves and those around them. Successful examples of this match will need strong counterbalancing energy on the Western side, or an admirable commitment to self-knowledge and conflict resolution.

Mikhail Khodorkovsky (6/26/1963, Cancer Rabbit), Vladimir Putin (10/7/1952, Libra Dragon) : The exiled businessman, once reputedly the richest individual in Russia, has had one of the most famous political feuds in history with the Russian President. Commentator Masha Gessen wrote in 2012, "At the root of the conflict between Putin and Khodorkovsky lies a basic difference in character. Putin rarely says what he means and even less frequently trusts that others are saying what they mean. Khodorkovsky, in contrast, seems to have always taken himself and others at face value."
50 Cent (7/6/1975, Cancer Rabbit), Ja Rule (2/29/1976, Pisces Dragon) : A feud between the two rappers has been described as one of the longest-running in Hip-Hop history. In 2018, 50 Cent claimed to have bought the first 200 tickets at a Ja Rule concert, so there would be empty seats in the front row.
Beverly D'Angelo (11/15/1951, Scorpio Rabbit), Al Pacino (4/25/1940, Taurus Dragon) : The two actors were in a relationship from the late 1990s until 2003, and D'Angelo gave birth to twins in 2001. D'Angelo described: "I got pregnant at 48, delivered six weeks after I was 49, and by 51, I was looking at a landscape as a single parent." An acrimonious custody dispute followed. More recently, however, D'Angelo has said positively: "You have to accept differences and all the things that led to a break-up in a way that allows you to move forward. And out of my support system and people I know and love, I’ve created [in Pacino] the ideal (parenting) partner."
Quentin Tarantino (3/27/1963, Aries Rabbit), Harvey Weinstein (3/19/1952, Pisces Dragon) : The director and producer were longtime collaborators before Weinstein's imprisonment as a sex offender. In the wake of the allegations against Weinstein, Tarantino said: "There was more to it than just the normal rumors, the normal gossip. It wasn’t secondhand. I knew he did a couple of these things. I wish I had taken responsibility for what I heard. If I had done the work I should have done then, I would have had to not work with him."
Sarah Palin (2/11/1964, Aquarius Rabbit), Todd Palin (9/6/1964, Virgo Dragon) : The US politician (including 2008 Republican nominee for Vice President) and oil field production operator were married for 30 years until 2020 and had five children together. Despite years of tabloid speculation, the marriage appeared strong until Todd Palin reportedly filed for divorce on his 55th birthday in 2019, citing "incompatibility of temperament". Sarah Palin learnt of the divorce filing in an email she received a week after their 31st wedding anniversary. She later described: "It's not easy to talk about. It was devastating. I thought I got shot."
Johnny Depp (6/9/1963, Gemini Rabbit), Sherilyn Fenn (2/1/1965, Aquarius Dragon) : The two actors dated for two and a half years before either found fame. Fenn has indicated on Instagram that she thinks fondly of her relationship with Depp, but the two do not keep in contact: "Simply the very first love of my life...After so many years it would be fun to talk. Yet, memories are enough as well."
George Orwell (6/25/1903, Cancer Rabbit), Graham Greene (10/2/1904, Libra Dragon) : The two authors were contemporaries writing in postwar Britain. Orwell's review of Greene's novel The Heart of the Matter has become an archetype of scathing criticism. Orwell writes, "I have not parodied the plot of the book. Even when dressed up in realistic details, it is just as ridiculous as I have indicated..."
