Compatibility
Gemini Rabbit and Scorpio Snake

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?

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."

Bridget Fonda (1/27/1964, Aquarius Rabbit), Danny Elfman (5/29/1953, Gemini Snake) : The composer and actor have been married since 2003 and have one child.

Kendrick Lamar (6/17/1987, Gemini Rabbit), Dr. Dre (2/18/1965, Aquarius Snake) : The rapper/producer and rapper have shared a mentoring friendship, including working together on Dre's as-yet-unreleased album, Detox. Lamar described in 2011: "Dre and I have a personal relationship. In the first studio session, we clicked so crazy. It was more like a uncle-nephew kind of vibe. Because everybody sees Dre as just a gangsta rapper, but he shares the same story that I have, a good kid in a mad city. When we sit in the studio, we talk about these different streets that we both lived on and experiences he had that I can relate to being two generations younger. I think that’s why people attach it so strongly because of the chemistry that we have outside the studio....Being under him and watching the passion, the same type of feel he has since the first early days of N.W.A., it’s crazy. It makes me go harder."

Blake Lively (8/25/1987, Virgo Rabbit), Taylor Swift (12/13/1989, Sagittarius Snake) : The music superstar and actor/director made friends in 2015. They have traded frequent affectionate social media posts and attended parties together.

At the 2022 American Music Awards, Swift said in a speech accepting her "Favorite Pop Album" award: "I want to take a moment to thank someone who directed the music video 'I Bet You Think About Me,' my beautiful, brilliant friend, my director Blake Lively."

Michael Jordan (2/17/1963, Aquarius Rabbit), Scottie Pippen (9/25/1965, Leo Snake) : The two celebrated basketballers formed one of the most successful pairings in NBA history, leading the Chicago Bulls to "three-peat" championships between 1990-1993 and 1995-1998. Pippen has described the closeness of their relationship at that time, saying: "[Jordan and I] grew up together and we defended each other. That respect we had on the court, that competitiveness we took through to the top – it was special. That was the respect we had for each other, because we had to be on the court to do what we did. We had to be dominant." Following the Jordan-led documentary, The Last Dance (2020), Pippen has expressed frustration on multiple occasions. In 2020, he said: "I don’t think [The Last Dance] was that accurate in terms of really defining what was accomplished in one of the greatest eras of basketball, but also by two of the greatest players...I thought it was more about Michael trying to uplift himself and to be glorified. I think it also backfired to some degree in that people got a chance to see what kind of personality Michael had."

Frank Sinatra (12/12/1915, Sagittarius Rabbit), Dean Martin (6/7/1917, Gemini Snake) : The two legendary singer/actors were friends who formed part of the so-called "Rat Pack" in the 1960s. They toured together frequently and co-starred in films including Ocean’s 11 (1960) and Robin and the 7 Hoods (1964). Sinatra was reportedly "too overwrought" to attend Martin's funeral in 1995, but he released a statement saying, "Dean was my brother — not through blood but through choice. Good times and bad, we were there together."
