Not a headline-grabber, perhaps, but this combination of the delightfully puzzling firstwest and secondwest with the naturally harmonious firsteast and secondeast can be a true unsung hero.

Western Zodiac
Gemini and Scorpio
Compatibility overview
The mysterious combination of firstwest and secondwest has sometimes been looked at doubtfully by Western astrologers. Conventional thinking was that these signs are so different, so seemingly disconnected, that they have almost nothing in common. In fact, however, these contrasting personalities can combine to achieve astonishing creativity and an intimate, lasting bond.

Western zodiac signs that are five steps apart, like Gemini and Scorpio, form a Quincunx (or inconjunct) aspect. Right from the start, this so-called minor influence—one of only two, with the Semi-sextile—gives this relationship a somewhat shapeless character, one that can be liberating, confusing, or both.
To be sure, there are some striking differences here. Gemini is an Air sign, a freedom-loving traveler, with a keen intellectual interest in just about anything and everything. Water sign Scorpio, by contrast, is a powerful, often brooding soul, known for their deep emotions and undeniable force of will. Air and water are generally more conflictive than harmonious. Hence Gemini's instincts can often seem flighty and distracting to the serious-minded Scorpio, while Scorpio's intensity can try Gemini's patience, and make them feel closed-in or exhausted. These signs are both known for their tempers when roused, too, so differences of opinion could produce some spectacular fireworks!
The beguiling energy of the Quincunx, however, means the differences here are often experienced with enjoyment, even fascination. Sexual chemistry is likely. The atmosphere of mutual puzzlement may be more likely to produce humor or banter than crossness or aggression. The secret weapon of this relationship, indeed, is the two signs' deeply compatible modalities.
Scorpio have their Fixed nature to thank for their determination and impact, while Gemini's more reflective Mutable personality means they are ever alert to consequences, implications, and effects. Thus, provided their differences are sensitively managed—independence and kindness will probably be essential—teamwork between these two can be startlingly effective. Creativity may prove especially fulfilling and effective, but any shared endeavor that harnesses their differences into common goals will be marked for success. Problems and resentments should be dealt with quickly, as Quincunx energy is known to become restless if not tended to regularly.
With good communication these surprising allies may find their relationship a wonderful source of warmth and achievement.

Eve Ensler (5/25/1953, Gemini Snake), Dylan McDermott (10/26/1961, Scorpio Ox) : The actor and playwright forged a powerfully supportive bond when Ensler adopted McDermott during her marriage to his father, Richard McDermott. Dylan McDermott described in 2014, "My theory is that all you need is one person to believe in you, and you can do anything ... [Ensler] saw something in me that I never saw in myself and she said, 'you're an actor,' when I was 15 years old." Dylan, whose birth name is Mark, changed his name after Ensler suffered a miscarriage; he explained, "I changed my name to the baby's name they had chosen out of my love for her." Ensler said in 1999, "I always wanted [Dylan] to know he had a mother...Loving Dylan was central to me learning how to be a loving human being."
Alanis Morissette (6/1/1974, Gemini Tiger), Ryan Reynolds (10/23/1976, Scorpio Dragon) : The actor and singer started dating in 2002, and were engaged from 2004 to 2007. During the relationship, Morrisette described, "We have the perfect combination of compatibility and incompatibility that makes the relationship very passionate. It’s perfect. I think it’s about stretching each other," and that, "[Reynolds is] just such a supportive creature. I feel so loved by him, in a trampoline kind of way. He’s always very happy for me." After their break-up, she said: "I’ve been on a constant journey toward finally surrendering and hitting the rock bottom that I’ve been avoiding my whole life. So this was a huge, critical juncture for me. Everything broke, and it was an amazing and horrifying time."
Kendrick Lamar (6/17/1987, Gemini Rabbit), SZA (11/8/1989, Scorpio Snake) : The rapper and singer/songwriter share a supportive friendship, and have collaborated multiple times, including on the tracks, "Babylon" (2014), "untitled 04 | 08.14.2014." (2014), "Doves In The Wind" (2017), and "All The Stars" (2018)—the last being nominated for an Academy Award in 2019. In 2014, Lamar described: "SZA’s got the skill, confidence, hunger and courage to revive a sound that’s been lost. Her substance and abstract concepts have the ability to make a lifetime connection that hasn’t been around since Erykah Badu’s Baduizm or Jay Z’s In My Lifetime. A true artist at heart, one hunnit." When Lamar was criticized for lyrics including, "Show me something natural like a— with some stretch marks," SZA responded: "How is that misogyny if he’s supporting positive body image? I think that’s so weird, and it’s reaching. If you want to support women, you should support all shapes of women. I used to be 200 pounds, and I have stretch marks all over my body. I find more comfort and solace with Kendrick reinforcing that I'm beautiful. I don’t really feel anything misogynistic from that."
Frank Drake (5/28/1930, Gemini Horse), Carl Sagan (11/9/1934, Scorpio Dog) : The two astrophysicists were both professors at Cornell University. As Drake described in his book, Is Anyone Out There? (1992), "[E]vents conspir[ed] to bring us together as lifelong colleagues." Among their many collaborations, they worked together on the so-called, "Pioneer plaque", a metal plaque sent into space in 1972/1973, which was intended to notify possible extraterrestrial beings about humankind. Drake described: "Carl asked me to work with him on the message. The next session of the astronomical meeting was almost ready to begin. Participants bustled past us with empty cups and saucers...The ‘Yes, of course’ wasn’t even out of my mouth before the two of us started firing ideas at each other about what we would include…We could even make line drawings of human figures—and we immediately agreed to do so. In the next moment, we hit on the idea of a galactic map that would pinpoint the location of the Earth in space."
Jill Biden (6/3/1951, Gemini Rabbit), Joe Biden (11/20/1942, Scorpio Horse) : The U.S. President and First Lady married in 1977. They met after Joe Biden's first wife and their daughter were killed in an automobile accident, and faced tragedy again when Joe Biden's son from his first marriage, Beau, died of brain cancer in 2015. In a joint interview during his presidency, Joe Biden said in 2021: "[Jill] has a backbone like a ramrod. Everybody says marriage is 50/50. Well, sometimes you have to be 70/30. Thank God that when I'm really down, she steps in, and when she's really down, I'm able to step in." Jill said, "All that we've been through together — the highs, the lows and certainly tragedy and loss — there's that quote that says sometimes you become stronger in the fractured places. That's what we try to achieve."

Like the elements in Western astrology, the four Trine Families that are central to Eastern astrology divide naturally into two compatible pairs. One such pair comprises the family of the Horse (with the Dog and Tiger) and the family of the Rabbit (with the Pig and Sheep). The Horse and Rabbit may not be the most attention-grabbing match between these two families, but they still profit from the auspicious surrounding energy.
It's not always obvious, given their swashbuckling, go-it-alone character, but the Horse is an idealist at heart. The sensitivity and artistry of the Rabbit thus appeal greatly to the Horse's core values. The Rabbit's gentle nature can also put the Horse at ease, helping them to relax and open up in a way they seldom allow themselves with other signs. The Rabbit, meanwhile, can be easily rattled or disturbed on their own. The Horse's independent spirit fortifies the Rabbit, making them less vulnerable to criticism or drama. This frees the Rabbit to pursue their talents with an unperturbed mind, at peace with the world.
These two will need to keep an eye out for distance between them occasionally. Mutual admiration need not always translate into the strongest alliance. Both parties should make sure the other knows just how much they are valued or loved. The Horse and Rabbit also need to maintain the protection the relationship provides. The Horse is by nature more forceful and independent-minded, and can be selfish or blunt. If outside influences, insensitivity, or neglect are allowed to threaten the cocoon-like quality of this relationship, problems may ricochet around without resolution, especially for the more delicate Rabbit.
Fortunately, the underlying positive energy here means that strategies to avoid potential challenges are likely to work well. This is a relationship that may function best with each party having their own sphere to work in, then joining together to enjoy the special connection they share. Ultimately, these two are likely to recognize and trust in the goodness in the other's heart, which can be a cornerstone of a lasting, nourishing, and inspiring bond.

Taika Waititi (8/16/1975, Leo Rabbit), Rita Ora (11/26/1990, Sagittarius Horse) : The director and singer are rumoured to have become a couple around April 2021 and married quietly during 2022. Ora has said about the relationship: "I've always wanted the fairytale, that's what I grew up loving. For me, it was always about that love, finding a partner, so I'm really happy I did."
Ali MacGraw (4/1/1939, Aries Rabbit), Steve McQueen (3/24/1930, Aries Horse) : The respective stars of Bullitt and Love Story were married from 1973 to 1978. McGraw said in 2018: "He was incredibly attractive most of the time but there was also danger, there was bad boy there. I wish we had both grown old sober. There were wonderful days and dreadful days."
Mackenzie Davis (4/1/1987, Aries Rabbit), Kristen Stewart (4/9/1990, Aries Horse) : The two actors starred together in the film Happiest Season, said to be "the first mainstream festive romcom about a same-sex couple". Stewart described how the obvious on-screen chemistry never felt forced: "[Davis] is such a real person. I wanted this couple, and the way that we represented these individuals, to feel really casual, sort of self-assured. And Mackenzie is fun and infectious, and she has a confidence that I find contagious. It was really important for me to show a queer couple feeling cool and comfortable and in their own skin. I can’t watch this movie and be like, it’s kind of [expletive]. Anyway, luckily, Mackenzie exists, and there you go."
Jerrod Carmichael (4/6/1987, Aries Rabbit), Bo Burnham (8/21/1990, Leo Horse) : The two comedians are close friends. Burnham directed Carmichael's HBO comedy specials 8 (2017) and Rothaniel (2022), the latter during which Carmichael came out as gay. Carmichael has described: "[Burnham]’s the friend of my dreams, in a way. I’m really happy that we found each other. I trust him with my life, in all ways. And so a lot of the moments you see in Rothaniel, the reason I was able to go there is because he's directing. It's like my best friend's directing, and I can give everything. I don't have to hide anything, that I can take down any wall. He's the best friend you could ask for. He really protected me."
