Capricorn and Pisces

Compatibility overview

This calm and supportive energy is one of the treasures of the Western zodiac. The combination of firstwest and secondwest has an understated quality, usually more in the manner of a trusted confidant than Romeo and Juliet. However, the energy these two share has boundless potential for encouragement, kindness, and reliability.

An interval of two steps around the Western zodiac wheel, as there is between Capricorn and Pisces, forms a Sextile connection. This famously relaxed, nurturing energy means these two typically enjoy a shared freedom from tension or constraints from the very beginning.

Capricorn's patient commitment to achieve mastery in their chosen field holds a visceral appeal for the wise, sensitive Pisces. Capricorn's intuition for power means they have a rare appreciation for the diplomatic and caring side of Pisces' nature, as well as the depth of insight and hard work Pisces can provide when they are comfortable. The elements here—Earth for Capricorn and Water for Pisces—are reliably harmonious, lending themselves to natural dependence and co-existence. The modalities are equally compatible. Capricorn is a Cardinal sign, an always-beginning energy synonymous with ideas and projects at their most pure and formative, while Pisces' Mutable nature brings a reflective emphasis on consequences, effects, and implications. Hence these two are extremely effective collaborators. In an easygoing atmosphere balancing good humor with comfortable silences, Capricorn contributes perseverance and astuteness, while Pisces brings perception and empathy.

Predictably for a Sextile coupling, both these signs usually retain a strong sense of their individual identity. This is often a relationship that these two can return to as regularly or infrequently as they choose, safe in the knowledge that the warmth and encouragement they share will be just as dependable as ever. In fact, if there is a qualification for Capricorn and Pisces, it is that the energy between them can be too relaxed at times. Affection here is more gently protective than intense or passionate, meaning this connection can sometimes be taken for granted or not prioritized. Capricorn and Pisces may find the very lack of pressure between them causes them to take a back seat in each other's lives, even when that might not be the path most conducive to their shared happiness.

On the plus side, the natural flexibility of this energy means it is capable of narrowing or widening as circumstances require. In whatever context, and however much or little time these two signs spend together, there is every chance the dependable qualities of reassurance, motivation, and tenderness will enrich both of their lives.

Cheryl Howard (12/23/1953, Capricorn Snake), Ron Howard (3/1/1954, Pisces Horse) : The actor/director and actor met in high school. They have been married since 1975 and have four children. Howard has described: "People say, ‘How’d you do it?’ There’s no technique. There’s no tactic other than communication is really important. You have to learn to communicate and have difficult conversations in constructive ways. Beyond that, there’s an element of luck because people either grow together or they don’t and I don’t think you can force that."

Rod Stewart (1/10/1945, Capricorn Monkey), Penny Lancaster (3/15/1971, Pisces Pig) : The singer and model have been married for 14 years and have two children. Stewart has described: "Intimacy is the most important thing in a relationship. Don't take it for granted. I'm not talking about sex, but a kiss and a cuddle and a hold. Penny and I do that every morning. We hug each other — sometimes in bed, sometimes out of bed, all throughout the day. It's a wonderful relationship."

Cary and Jennifer Grant

Cary Grant (1/18/1904, Capricorn Rabbit), Jennifer Grant (2/26/1966, Pisces Horse) : The two actors were father and daughter. At one time one of the most famous actors in the world, Cary Grant famously retired from acting in 1966, after Jennifer was born, to devote himself to her upbringing. In her book, Good Stuff: A Reminiscence of My Father, Cary Grant, Jennifer describes: "To me, [my father] was like a marvelous painting. All the art historians wish to break down the motives, and the scheme, and so on. I would rather know, as I do, his essence. I believe that at the heart of a person lies passion. For the last twenty years of his life, I was given the extraordinary privilege to experience the full, vital passion of his heart. Dad used the expression 'good stuff' to declare happiness or, as one of his friends put it, he said it when pleased with the nature of things. He said it a lot. He had a happy way of life. His life was 'good stuff.'"

Mary Tyler Moore (12/29/1936, Capricorn Rat), Bernadette Peters (2/28/1948, Pisces Rat) : The two actors were close friends before Moore's death in 2017. Together, they co-founded Broadway Barks, an annual dog and cat adoption event benefiting New York City animal shelters and adoption agencies. About vacationing together, Peters described: "Mary was always the planner. Mary was always the one who would say, ‘We wanna go to the Bahamas, and we're gonna swim with the dolphins.' She was the one that always came up with the ideas and the adventures and things to do. Life was precious to her, and she knew if she kept moving that was healthy for her."

Niki Lauda and Lewis Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton (1/7/1985, Capricorn Rat), Niki Lauda (2/22/1949, Pisces Ox) : The two Formula One world champions became close friends, after Lauda was instrumental in luring Hamilton to drive for his Mercedes team in 2013. Speaking after Lauda's death in 2019, Hamilton described: "I just so miss talking to the dude, I miss his texts, the videos we shared. I still have them. I’ve kept them and still revisit them. Without his support I probably wouldn’t have made the switch to come to this team...That’s what he was best at – support and being real...To have someone talking to the [Formula One] board who understands and empathises how difficult it is to deliver weekend after weekend, when you make a mistake. That is where he was such a great pillar for me...When he took his hat off [in salute to an achievement in the car] or he goes like this [the finger/thumb gesture indicating something very close to a skirting disaster limit], you knew it was real, that you’d really done something. I miss him a lot."

James Earl Jones (1/17/1931, Capricorn Horse), Cecilia Hart (2/19/1948, Pisces Rat) : The two actors were married from 1982 until Hart's death in 2016, and had one child together. Receiving a Lifetime Achievement award at the Tony awards in 2017, Jones said: "I want to thank my wife Ceci for being such a wonderful companion in my life and in my work. And for being the great coproducer of our son Flynn and for being so dazzling on the red carpet."

Lou Reed and David Bowie

David Bowie (1/8/1947, Capricorn Dog), Lou Reed (3/2/1942, Pisces Horse) : The two legendary musicians were friends who collaborated multiple times, including when Bowie co-produced (with Mick Ronson) Reed's landmark album, Transformer. Reed described in 2004: "How can I remember my first impression of David Bowie? That’s really… [smiles] Okay… I mean, David and I are friends to this day. He’s very smart and very, very talented, and I met him in New York and thought, ‘This guy would be a fun guy to work with; we could really bring something to the dance.’"

Sheep and Sheep

Compatibility overview

A pairing between two Sheep natives is a standout match, not just among own-sign matches, but among all matches in the Chinese zodiac. Naturally, the overlap between these personalities results in occasional overfamiliarity. But the Sheep's artistic sensibilities and gentle nature mean they are well-equipped to resolve problems and concentrate on the good things in life—not least each other.

Chinese astrology is built on the foundation of the four Trine Families. The family of the Sheep (which also includes the Pig and Rabbit) is well known for their love of beauty, peace, and coziness. Two Sheep together thus share a bedrock of values that are close to their heart.

Early conversations will likely emphasize the importance of family, as well as artistic subjects of various kinds, for the Sheep is one of the most naturally creative and visionary of all the Chinese zodiac signs. Because they are also highly sensitive to disruptions of one kind or another, two Sheep will also frequently bond over things they don't like. Cruelty, injustice, and ugliness are usually anathema to these idealist souls, and sharing their romantic outlook with a fellow Sheep can be a source of profound existential comfort. Naturally, as time passes, having so much in common can make for close and lasting friendships and professional collaborations, as well as gentle and intimate personal relationships.

A pair of Sheep will have to keep a lookout for the effect of anxiety on their shared lives. Sheep natives can sometimes be just as worried about potential or imagined disturbances as real ones. Without the calming influence of contrary energy, these two might sometimes be guilty of stressing unnecessarily or over-reacting, using a sledgehammer to crush a walnut so to speak. Clear strategies to address paranoia or excessive sensitivity are likely to prove useful. Fortunately, the Sheep personality is adept at seeking out and maintaining the tranquility they need to be at their happiest and most productive.

Two Sheep working together will usually be able to shake off their anxieties quickly and fulfil themselves in the ways they cherish most—with highly original creativity, joyful conversation, and blissful environments. Having such desires in common, there is a strong prospect that in any context, two Sheep will form a lasting and intensely rewarding bond.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban

Nicole Kidman (6/20/1967, Gemini Sheep), Keith Urban (10/26/1967, Scorpio Sheep) : The actor and singer have been married for 15 years and have two children together. Urban has described how he entered rehab for addiction within months of their wedding, saying, "I caused the implosion of my fresh marriage. It survived, but it’s a miracle it did. For the first time in my life, I could shake off the shackles of addiction." Later, speaking of the support Urban provided after the death of her father, Kidman said, "To have my husband to step up in that way, it makes me cry. He’s amazing. I will keep him. I’ll do anything for that man."

Imelda Staunton (1/9/1956, Capricorn Sheep), Mike Leigh (2/20/1943, Pisces Sheep) : The actor and director worked together on the multi-award-winning films, Vera Drake (2004) and Another Year (2010). Staunton described in 2005: "Mike empowers you as an actor. We created together the character of Vera [Drake] from the day she was born. The creative process was long but very fulfilling, because it involved improvisations and extensive research of the whole period...The sessions with Mike are always very personal, one-to-one. During that time, you don’t talk to the other actors at all. You don’t exchange notes about what you're doing, or what they're doing. Each one of us only talks to Mike. My sessions with Mike varied in length, but they were always one-to-one."

Bonnie Wright and Evanna Lynch

Evanna Lynch (8/16/1991, Leo Sheep), Bonnie Wright (2/17/1991, Aquarius Sheep) : The two actors co-starred in the Harry Potter film series, and have gone on to share a friendship based on similar commitments to activism. Promoting an event to publicize Wright's book, Go Gently: Actionable Steps to Nurture Yourself and the Planet (2022), Lynch posted in 2022: "Over the past few years, I’ve been very inspired by Bonnie’s lifestyle and her passion and commitment to sustainability and to making sustainable practices accessible for everyone. I’ve seen her in many different settings gently but consistently advocate for zero-waste facilities, and each time, it jolted me into realising how wasteful and careless of the planet my normal everyday habits become, unless I consciously choose otherwise...I have LOTS of questions for Bonnie!! And I cannot wait to ask them and be part of this conversation on May 10th!"

Jason Momoa (8/1/1979, Leo Sheep), Lisa Bonet (11/16/1967, Scorpio Sheep) : The couple were together for 16 years and married for five. Early in the relationship, they made headlines because of the 12-year age difference—when they met, Momoa was 25, Bonet 37. They have two children together and remain close after separating in 2022. A joint statement issued after the separation described: "We have all felt the squeeze and changes of these transformational times… A revolution is unfolding — and our family is of no exception… feeling and growing from the seismic shifts occurring...The love between us carries on, evolving in ways it wishes to be known and lived. We free each other — to be who we are learning to become…Our devotion unwavering to this sacred life and our Children."

Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner

Leonard Nimoy (3/26/1931, Aries Sheep), William Shatner (3/22/1931, Aries Sheep) : The two actors were close friends who created one of the most iconic on-screen relationships of all time, as Captain Kirk and Spock in the original Star Trek film and TV series. Shatner described in his book, Nimoy, Leonard: My Fifty-Year Friendship With a Remarkable Man (2016) that the pair grew apart later in life, which Shatner has described with great regret: "No, [I never understood why,] and [Nimoy] was my dearest friend. We talked about all kinds of things in the darkness of the limousine, about divorce and children. But something happened, I don’t know what, it was so bizarre. But his daughter told me not long ago: 'He really loved you.' And that moved me to tears."

Barbara Eden (8/23/1931, Virgo Sheep), Larry Hagman (9/21/1931, Virgo Sheep) : The two actors displayed memorable chemistry as the stars of I Dream of Jeannie (1965-1970), in spite of Hagman's famously erratic behavior and alcoholism. They later appeared together on the show, Dallas (1978-1991), and in the play, Love Letters. Eden has said that there was never a romantic relationship between them, although, "We just...we clicked. We had the same rhythm. We’ve got the same truth out of whatever we were doing. I loved him a lot." Eden described that once, when she was upset after an incident on set, Hagman comforted her: "Don't cry, Barbara. That's my act."

Mick Jagger and Keith Richards

Mick Jagger (7/26/1943, Leo Sheep), Keith Richards (12/18/1943, Sagittarius Sheep) : The two founding members of The Rolling Stones knew each other as children, and have shared a lifelong collaboration that is one of the most famous working relationships of all time. Richards described in 2021: "It's almost indescribable. When Mick and I are out there [on stage] working, we both know that, ‘Hey, I'm counting on you.’ And there's a beautiful jousting and also like a support. That's where I feel my friendship with Mick more intensely than at any other time he's on stage. You know, I have his back. He has mine. It's an interesting piece of improvisation goes on every night and it's like, how far do you want to push it? And that's half the fun of it. It's never the same, this show, there's no script."


Combined Relationship Horoscope

Final Words

The Sextile match of firstwest and secondwest is one of the most dependable combinations in the Western zodiac, so from the beginning these two will likely share a good-natured and pleasurable connection. This natural camaraderie may be enhanced by the own-sign combination of firsteast and secondeast, which offers plenty of scope for a shared outlook and mutual admiration. There are limitations—the Sextile is sometimes so easy-breezy both signs overlook its potential, while the lack of balance on the Eastern side may at times cramp the relationship or make dispute resolution difficult. On balance, though, these are two kindred spirits, with excellent prospects of providing each other with long-term support, tenderness, and enjoyment.
