Compatibility
Capricorn Snake and Pisces Horse

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 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."

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."

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.’"

Oprah Winfrey (1/29/1954, Aquarius Snake), Gayle King (12/28/1954, Capricorn Horse) : The iconic talk show host and television personality have been close friends since the mid-1970s. When Winfrey interviewed King for the first time in 2020, King described: "The secret to me is trust. I trust you totally, even if I disagree with you, I still trust you. I have this joke with Oprah where people say, I found my best friend with my husband...I say to Oprah, ‘If you ever walked in and caught me with Stedman, you should not be mad, you should take me to the mental institution. Don’t be mad, I need help!’ But I mean, we’re honest with each other and trust each other and actually are very like-minded."

Ron Eldard (2/20/1965, Pisces Snake), Julianna Margulies (6/8/1966, Gemini Horse) : After originally meeting at an acting class in the early 90s, the two actors reunited on the set of ER and were together for over 10 years. Margulies described their background and plans to work together in 2002: "Ron and I had met in acting class in 1991. We were great friends. Ron has seen me at my worst and most dejected...Doing movies together is a no-brainer, but the thought of acting opposite Ron on stage is intimidating...He's so breathtaking on stage, but I want to give it a try. Ron says he wants to direct me in a play."

Linda McCartney (9/24/1941, Libra Snake), Paul McCartney (6/18/1942, Gemini Horse) : The musician and photographer were married from 1969 until Linda McCartney's death in 1998. They adopted Linda's child from a previous relationship and had three children together. They also played together in the band Wings. McCartney has described: "We were very up and down, quite funky compared to the eventual image of '25 years of married bliss! Aren't they lucky for people in showbiz?' But we are. You get this picture of us swanning along in a little rowboat managing to avoid the white water, but we were right in the middle of that white water, man, so it's even more miraculous that we made it. But we did."

Dina Eastwood (7/11/1965, Cancer Snake), Clint Eastwood (5/31/1930, Gemini Horse) : The celebrated actor/director and news anchor were married between 1996 and 2014. In a 2007 interview, Dina Eastwood described: "Being married to Clint is almost a full-time job, just trying to keep up with him...Breaks are great for every marriage. The longest we go [apart] is maybe 10 days. When you travel with Clint, it’s a one-week trip and three cities. He works from the second we arrive until the second we leave... I love that he’s so conscientious about nature...He’s one of those people who takes bugs outside....I wonder if it’s because he gets so much attention from humans, and I think he’s self-conscious about getting so much attention, that I wonder if he fixates on animals because he gets to give all the attention."

Daniel Radcliffe (7/23/1989, Leo Snake), Emma Watson (4/15/1990, Aries Horse) : The two actors grew up together filming the Harry Potter series of films, and have compared their relationship to close siblings. Radcliffe described: "Oh, God. We used to argue about everything. Religion. Politics. I remember one of the big arguments we had on the fourth film – [Watson and I] didn’t speak to each other for a couple of days – was about… She was arguing about the Latin language, that nobody knows what it sounds like, what a Latin accent should be. And I was like, 'Yeah, but it’s still spoken a lot in the Catholic church.'...[It] got totally out of hand. She was furious; I was livid. I certainly would advise anyone, if you’re going to debate with her, know your [expletive."

Paul Simon (10/13/1941, Libra Snake), Edie Brickell (3/10/1966, Pisces Horse) : The two musicians wed in 1992 and have three children together. Brickell has described how she saw Simon watching her while she performed on Saturday Night Live: "Even though I'd performed the song hundreds of times in clubs, he made me forget how the song went when I looked at him. We can show the kids the tape and say, 'Look, that's when we first laid eyes on each other.'"

Chris Rock (2/7/1965, Aquarius Snake), Jerry Seinfeld (4/29/1954, Taurus Horse) : The two comedians have famously been friends for decades. During a 2011 HBO comedy special, they debated how much new material comedians should use in their live shows. Rock said: "See, this is the eternal argument between [Seinfeld] and I. We've been having this discussion for literally our whole relationship...I like a whole new show...It's a completely new body of work. And that's the way I look at it. Here's the new stuff." Seinfeld countered: "When I go see somebody work, I don't want to see your new hour...I want to see the act... Every year I get rid of, I don't know, 10 or 20% percent and I add...So, every five years or four years... I don't know. I don't really keep track of it. But I do feel like there are those core things [that should be maintained over time]."
