Although Western and Chinese astrology are fundamentally different, a key synergy between them is the pre-eminence of Trine combinations—signs that are four steps apart. In the Western zodiac, one such celebrated Trine match is the pairing of Leo and Sagittarius.
These signs share the element of Fire, the most intense, dynamic, and passionate of the elements. Leo's honor, ambition, and relentless pursuit of justice will appeal from the outset to Sagittarius' far-seeing, philosophical outlook. Sagittarius' commitment to idealism and harmony with the natural world will similarly inspire and resonate with Leo, who prides themselves on their integrity and love of beauty. In other company, these signs can both be somewhat overwhelming, such is the force of their personalities and the unapologetic strength of their convictions. How gloriously inspiring it can be, then, for them to discover in each other a like-minded compulsion to strive for the highest standards of endeavour, above all else.
Mutual enthusiasm, exhilaration, and admiration are all indicated early in this relationship. Over time, Leo and Sagittarius may find that their potential for collaboration and emotional support expand exponentially. Leo's Fixed modality, with its emphasis on productivity and achievement, forms a perfect transition into the reflective, Mutable energy of Sagittarius. Relations between these two thus conform to a natural cycle of realization to contemplation. Shared projects are likely to be completed fully and successfully, and then to serve as a platform for further stirring opportunities. Potential problems for these signs—vanity or disdainfulness for Leo, belligerence or overcommitment for Sagittarius—can usually be corrected by the generosity and encouragement of their shared connection.
There is no such thing as perfection in human relationships, of course, and challenging energy on the Chinese side could always throw a spanner into the works. However, irrespective of context, this is a justifiably prized connection, as promising as any in the Western zodiac.

Jennifer Lawrence (8/15/1990, Leo Horse), Nicholas Hoult (12/7/1989, Sagittarius Snake) : The two actors became a high-profile couple after they started dating while co-starring in X-Men: First Class in 2010. They broke up around 2014. Lawrence was quoted in 2012: "[My boyfriend] is honestly my best friend, and hopefully I’m his best friend too. He’s my favorite person to be around and makes me laugh harder than anybody … We can eat Cheetos and watch beach volleyball and we turn into two perverted Homer Simpsons, like, 'Oh, she’s got a nice ass.' I never thought we’d have such different opinions on asses."
Iola Brubeck (8/14/1923, Leo Pig), Dave Brubeck (12/6/1920, Sagittarius Monkey) : The jazz pioneer and lyricist were married from 1942 until Dave Brubeck's death in 2012. They had six children. They collaborated multiple times, notably on the musical, The Real Ambassadors. Iola Brubeck has also been credited with developing a strategy to publicize and perform Dave's music to young college audiences during the 1950s, which proved transformatively successful. Iola once described the time before Dave achieved widespread recognition: "We learned to improvise in living; whatever place we could find to stay we stayed. We couldn’t afford the best so we learned how to use camping equipment inside a city hotel. We had sleeping bags and air mattresses...[F]ortunately, I think my background and Dave’s ranch background gave us sort of that, I don’t know, pioneer fortitude, I guess to [say,] okay, these are the circumstances, accept it and make the most of it. Make it work, it will work."
Michelle Yeoh (8/6/1962, Leo Tiger), Jamie Lee Curtis (11/22/1958, Sagittarius Dog) : The two actors starred together memorably in Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022). Curtis' celebratory reaction made headlines around the world after Yeoh won a Golden Globe for her performance. When Curtis herself won a Screen Actors Guild Award for her role in the film, their relationship was again in the news after a celebratory kiss. Curtis said: "I kissed [Yeoh]?, Did I really kiss her? I love Michelle Yeoh. We love each other. We fell in love with each other. She's married. I met her husband in England, he's lovely. I also have a husband."
Bridgid Coulter (8/2/1968, Leo Monkey), Don Cheadle (11/29/1964, Sagittarius Dragon) : The two actors had been together for 28 years before marrying in 2020. They have two daughters. Somewhat tongue-in-cheek, Cheadle described in 2021: "[Marriage] came up a lot of time[s]. But every time, we were like, 'But we're already together?' [The accountant said], 'Yeah, but this is a better reason to be together.' Really, it's because our accountant proposed to us, I wish there were some big sweet romantic story, but the romance happened, you know, the first year."
James Cameron (8/16/1954, Leo Horse), Kathryn Bigelow (11/27/1951, Sagittarius Rabbit) : The two film directors were married from 1989-1991. At the 2010 Oscars, they were famously in competition for the Best Director award—Bigelow for The Hurt Locker (2008), and Cameron for Avatar (2009). It was reportedly Cameron who recommended Bigelow direct The Hurt Locker. A decade later, Cameron said about Bigelow's win: "[F]or me to begrudge not only someone that I’ve loved and believed in winning the best director, but also the first woman... f—, man. Stand back. Let her have her night. We talked about it endlessly before and after. They wanted us to be co-presenters, but we looked at one another and said, 'We’re not going to play that game.' If I was sitting here now, however many years later, looking at an Oscar that could have been hers, I would be feeling like s—. I was very happy at how it worked out."
Christine Taylor (7/30/1971, Leo Pig), Ben Stiller (11/30/1965, Sagittarius Snake) : The two actors married in 2000 and have two children together. After separating in 2017, they reconciled during lockdown in 2020. Stiller described about their reconciliation: "I think we have a respect for the ways that we're similar and the ways we're different. And I think accepting that, you can really appreciate someone more because you're not trying to get them to change for you."
Sam Champion (8/13/1961, Leo Ox), Rubem Robierb (12/1/1976, Sagittarius Dragon) : The weather anchor and artist had been together for several years before they married in 2012. Robierb has described: "Sam and I connected on every level early on. We have always connected on important social issues. As we have grown more as a couple, we enjoy tackling them together and being around like minds."
Whitney Houston (8/9/1963, Leo Rabbit), Robyn Crawford (12/17/1960, Sagittarius Rat) : The two friends were inseparable for much of the legendary singer Houston's life. Crawford described in her memoir, A Song for You: "We never talked labels, like lesbian and gay. We just lived our lives, and I hoped it could go on that way for ever."

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."
