Western Zodiac
Gemini and Gemini
Compatibility overview
This is likely to be a vivacious, often exciting, and almost never boring combination. The common world view shared by two Geminis can be expected to contribute plenty of lively intellectual banter and delightful good humor. Own-sign matches must always counter a lack of balance, which here might occasionally result in legendary disputes or cantankerousness, or repeatedly diverging paths. But ultimately there is a strong foundation here for happiness and dependability.

Two Geminis form one of the most spirited and changeable matches in the Western zodiac. The shared element of Air usually lends these two a strongly intellectual bent, and they tend to draw on an incredible breadth of ideas to develop their playful humor and wide-ranging repartee. From the beginning, they will usually recognize in each other a kindred irreverence, desire for respect, and appetite for diverse experiences.
Gemini is the Western zodiac's most dyed-in-the-wool traveller. Forever imprinted with the age of late adolescence, freedom to experiment with different identities is usually essential to them maintaining a sense of forward momentum. Hence two Geminis will often be at their most comfortable exploring new terrains together, both physical and cerebral. Where other signs might occasionally suspect Gemini of trying to show off, a pair of Geminis will often be more than happy accommodating each other's real and figurative ventures. These two together can weave a merry dance indeed, the more creatively varied and attention-grabbing the better.
The main source of potential problems may be the shared Mutable modality. Mutable energy is inherently reflective, concentrated on consequences and implications rather than direct action. Without a balancing contrary influence, two Geminis can sometimes feel a bit lost together, as if they are spiralling out of control. They may find it hard to maintain focus or bring projects to completion. Also, Gemini's typically intense fascination with individual identity can lead to bouts of instability from time to time. Not for nothing is Gemini symbolized by the twins. People drawn in by the delightful jocularity of their Dr. Jekyll can sometimes be quite shocked by the darkness of their Mr. Hyde. Hence if two Geminis go to war, their battles—though usually short-lived—could be quite dangerous.
Often the complexity of this match may lead to intermittent bouts of intense enjoyment, rather than living in each other's pockets day-to-day. Yet there is a core of shared values that it would be a mistake to underestimate, and that may result in a stable and nourishing connection for the long term.

George H. W. Bush (6/12/1924, Gemini Rat), Barbara Bush (6/8/1925, Gemini Ox) : The 41st US President and First Lady were married from 1945 until Barbara Bush's death in 2018, and had six children. George H.W. Bush died seven months after his wife. In a famous letter written on the day their engagement was announced in 1943, shortly before George Bush went to war, he wrote: "I love you, precious, with all my heart and to know that you love me means my life. How often I have thought about the immeasurable joy that will be ours someday. Goodnite, my beautiful. Every time I say beautiful, you about kill me, but you'll have to accept it." In 1990, Barbara Bush described: "One of the reasons I made the most important decision of my life, to marry George Bush, is because he made me laugh. It's true, sometimes we've laughed through our tears, but that shared laughter has been one of our strongest bonds."
Peter Dinklage (6/11/1969, Gemini Rooster), Erica Schmidt (6/8/1975, Gemini Rabbit) : The actor, who initially found fame as Tyrion Lannister in Game of Thrones (2011-2019), and writer/actor have been married since 2005. They have two children. They collaborated on the film, Cyrano (2021), a musical romantic drama which starred Dinklage in the lead role, and was written by Schmidt. Dinklage described in 2015, "[Schmidt is] very inspiring. She’s definitely the artist of the family. I am just the TV actor who pays the bills." Schmidt said in 2012, "What’s frustrating about it is that Pete is an incredibly handsome, charming, funny guy, but when he does a magazine or something it’s like, ‘Isn’t it amazing he’s four foot five inches tall and he’s sexy?’ You know, that’s just who Pete is. And the rest of the world has to catch up."
Tom Daley (5/21/1994, Gemini Dog), Dustin Lance Black (6/10/1974, Gemini Tiger) : The diver/media personality and screenwriter/activist began a relationship in 2013, and married in 2017. They have two children. Daley described in 2018: "It was a real love-at-first-sight thing. But then I had to come back to England so we were just talking on the phone or WhatsApp or whatever. Then [Black] came over eight weeks later. The first night, I took him to meet my friends and said: ‘This is my boyfriend.’ The next night we went on our first date. The next night he asked me to be his boyfriend. The night after that, after a couple of lychee martinis, he told me he loved me. He extended his trip, we were already talking about babies and weddings. So that was in the first week. It was weird. But now it’s five years later …"
Mike Myers (5/25/1963, Gemini Rabbit), Dana Carvey (6/2/1955, Gemini Sheep) : The two comedian/actor/screenwriters worked together on Saturday Night Live, and became household names after they appeared as the eponymous central characters in the films, Wayne's World (1992), and Wayne's World 2 (1993). After Carvey expressed resentment about a lack of credit for the character Dr. Evil in Myers' Austin Powers film series, in recent years the two have become close again. Carvey explained in 2022: " We’ve become very, very close friends...We have too much history, an unbelievable amount of stuff in common. … We had so much shared history together, riding the rocket of Wayne’s World....We got closer during that whole process [of making a Super Bowl commercial in 2021] and started talking more. It’s very nice to have such a long friendship with someone...I came to know him in a much better way, as we’ve been really really talking these last couple years."
Sondra Locke (5/28/1944, Gemini Monkey), Clint Eastwood (5/31/1930, Gemini Horse) : The two actors were romantically involved from around 1975 to 1989. Their partnership included six film collaborations, including, The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), Every Which Way But Loose (1978), and Sudden Impact (1983). Unfortunately, their relationship later descended into acrimony, including two lawsuits brought by Locke. Locke was quoted in 1997: "People can say, ‘He made her famous; he gave her movies.’ He didn’t give me movies—I did a job. He didn’t make me famous. It was never my fame—it was his fame. I was Clint’s girl. I only stood to lose professionally."
Gladys Knight (5/28/1944, Gemini Monkey), Patti LaBelle (5/24/1944, Gemini Monkey) : The two singers have been friends for over 60 years. They collaborated (with Dionne Warwick) on the successful song, "Superman" (1991), and joined up for a memorable Verzuz match-up in 2020, with LaBelle saying, "We are so happy to be together. We’ve been together for many, many, many years." Asked about the secret to their relationship in a joint interview, LaBelle said: "[Honesty, keeping each other grounded,] [a]nd not being afraid to go behind [Knight] on the show, or her going behind me. You can't play or hate a good friend, and that's what she is to me." Knight added, "We actually grew up together. This is one of the best feelings about these kind of things that I've had. ... [that's] what love is all about."

Tiger and Snake
Compatibility overview
Devotees of the Western zodiac are often surprised by how critical Chinese astrologers are of certain energy matches. Nowhere is the Chinese prognosis as bleak as with the Adversary matches along the fourth degree axis. One such pairing is that between Tiger and Snake, an unsettling combination that is likely to test even the most amiable personalities.

An infamous adversarial energy surrounds the pairing between the Tiger and Snake.
A confounding aspect of this combination is that the Tiger and Snake both have strong visual appeal, and both naturally focus on abstract ideals over more everyday concerns. Someone who knows them separately could be forgiven for imagining they might get along famously! Yet appearances here can be quite deceptive. The Tiger's instincts favor speed, action, and decisiveness. The Snake, by contrast, leans towards restraint, patience, and reflection. This essential disconnect tends to produce instability and miscommunication. These two will likely vacillate between recklessness and procrastination, secrecy and tactlessness, miserliness and extravagance.
More challenging still, the conflict here is ambiguous rather than direct. Resentment is more likely to fester than to reveal itself through confrontation. There is a quicksand quality to communication, so even attempts at kindness and resolution can be misconstrued by the receiver, or make the giver feel as if they have surrendered or compromised their true self. Ultimately, for a Tiger and Snake to succeed together will likely require strong counterbalancing energy on the Western side, or highly-developed conflict resolution skills. Otherwise the personal growth of both parties may lead to limiting the relationship's scope, or even abandoning it altogether. If such countering forces are brought to bear, however, there is potential here for harmony, and for the relationship to inspire profound personal growth.

Axl Rose (2/6/1962, Aquarius Tiger), Slash (7/23/1965, Leo Snake) : Before reconciling in 2015, the two founding members of Guns N' Roses were almost as famous for the feud between them as for their legendary collaborations. A lowpoint was Rose saying in 2009 that, "Slash either should not have been in Guns to begin with or should have left after [1988’s GNR Lies]. In a nutshell, personally I consider him a cancer and better removed, avoided — and the less anyone heard of him or his supporters, the better."
Marilyn Monroe (6/1/1926, Gemini Tiger), John F. Kennedy (5/29/1917, Gemini Snake) : Monroe's performance of "Happy Birthday" for John F. Kennedy is one of the most famous events in modern U.S. history. Rumours have abounded of a sexual relationship between the two, but according to reports any such liaison was not especially memorable for either of them. The only known photo of them together shows Kennedy looking down and away.
Megan Fox (5/16/1986, Taurus Tiger), Michael Bay (2/17/1965, Aquarius Snake) : The actor and model Fox starred in the first two Transformers films directed by Bay, but was famously dropped from the third instalment after saying this about the director: "He’s like Napoleon and he wants to create this insane, infamous mad man reputation. He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. So he’s a nightmare to work for…"
Phil Collins (1/30/1951, Aquarius Tiger), Lily Collins (3/18/1989, Pisces Snake) : The celebrated musician and his model/actor daughter seemed to reconcile in 2020 after a well-publicised estrangement. Lily Collins wrote in her autobiographical essays collection, Unfiltered: No Shame, No Regrets, Just Me (2017), addressing her father: "We all make choices and, although I don’t excuse some of yours, at the end of the day we can’t rewrite the past. I’m learning how to accept your actions and vocalize how they made me feel. I accept and honor the sadness and anger I felt toward the things you did or didn’t do, did or didn’t give me. I’ve learned a lot and my eyes and heart are wide open."
Rosie O’Donnell (3/21/1962, Aries Tiger), Barbara Walters (9/25/1929, Libra Snake) : The two television personalities, both stars of The View, famously clashed during a dressing room confrontation in January 2007 following a dispute about Donald Trump. O'Donnell has since been quoted as saying, "I said something about her daughter, which I should not have said. But I did...Things that were way too personal to bring up, and I brought them up, and I felt regretful since."
Tom Cruise (7/3/1962, Cancer Tiger), Brooke Shields (5/31/1965, Gemini Snake) : The two actors starred together in the 1981 film, Endless Love. In 2005, Cruise criticized Shields' use of antidepressant medications to treat postpartum depression. She rebuked him: "[C]omments like those made by Tom Cruise are a disservice to mothers everywhere...If any good can come of Mr. Cruise's ridiculous rant, let's hope that it gives much-needed attention to a serious disease."

Final Words
The own-sign combination of firstwest and secondwest raises inevitable challenges of overfamiliarity, but it also offers plenty of shared values and common ground. The firsteast and secondeast pairing, however, has a notorious reputation for poor communication and resentment. It may be essential for these two to leverage the benefits of the Western match, for this relationship to flourish.
