Trine matches are often said to be the Universe's favorites, the most propitious blend of similarity and difference there can be. Aquarius and Libra are both Air signs, so they share a natural inclination towards conceptual and social matters.

Early conversations are likely to be delightfully convivial. Air signs can be somewhat fickle or acerbic when stressed, but these two kindred spirits should be able to steer effortlessly away from any hints of unpleasantness. Libra's patient judiciousness and wide-eyed enthusiasm are likely to appeal immediately to the intellectual Aquarius. Meanwhile, Aquarius' concern for universal truths will resonate deeply with Libra's lifelong quest to improve their self-knowledge and decision-making. Given an opportunity to grow together, however, these two may discover that the tantalizing possibilities of early meetings were if anything an underestimate of their true potential.

Air signs are accustomed to finding social interaction relatively easy. Yet the modalities here are beautifully aligned. The Cardinal energy of Libra represents the Air element at its most pure, and this eager intellectualism forms a natural complement to Aquarius' Fixed energy, with its focus on achieving real and lasting wisdom. Traits that can cause problems in other contexts, such as the unorthodoxy of Aquarius or the irrepressibility of Libra, will in this relationship not merely be tolerated but hugely appreciated. Indeed, these compatible souls may come to feel as if with each other they can truly be themselves, their connection growing ever stronger the more they surrender to vulnerability and intimacy.

Whatever the context, and whether for brief or enduring periods of time, this connection offers to enrich both parties' lives long into the future.

Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta

Olivia Newton-John (9/26/1948, Libra Rat), John Travolta (2/18/1954, Aquarius Horse) : The two actors displayed legendary on-screen chemistry in Grease and developed a lasting friendship. Asked about why they did not become involved romantically, Newton-John explained, "I think it was good, because I think it kept the tension there and the chemistry. It might have been a real disaster had we decided to date, or we had a falling out or something. So, I think it was just as well that it didn’t happen. But we’re still great friends." Travolta has revealed that he advocated for Newton-John to be cast in the role, saying, "There was only one person on this planet I could see as Sandy, and that person was Olivia Newton-John. I told the producers."

Jason Alexander (9/23/1959, Libra Pig), Daena E. Title (2/14/1957, Aquarius Rooster) : The actor and actor/artist have been married since 1981 and have two children together. Alexander has described their courtship, saying, "I had $1000 to my name and for our first date, I wasn’t sure what she would want to do, so I took out all the money from my bank account." They moved in together three weeks later.

Jack Lemmon and Felicia Farr

Felicia Farr (10/4/1932, Libra Monkey), Jack Lemmon (2/8/1925, Aquarius Ox) : The two actors from Hollywood's Golden Age were married from 1962 until Lemmon's death in 2001. Quoted in Michael Freedland's biography, Jack Lemmon, Lemmon described: "Before I met [Felicia], I never got angry. I was all bottled up, constricted, emotionally. She opened me up. For the first time in my life I could get violently mad and I could feel an attraction that I had never felt for any human being. She is so alive, so open to everything. She drew me out of myself. She made me care—about poverty, about politics, about the rotten air we breathe."

Sacha Baron Cohen (10/13/1971, Libra Pig), Isla Fisher (2/3/1976, Aquarius Dragon) : The actor and actor/comedian were together from around 2001 until 2023. They married in 2010 and have three children. Fisher has described: "Maybe I'm sick and twisted, but I tend to find [Cohen] really funny. He always surprises me in the best possible way. I'm proud of him for taking risks and putting himself out there as an artist. I think once we start censoring everything, well, what will there be left to look forward to?"

Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg

Snoop Dogg (10/20/1971, Libra Pig), Dr. Dre (2/18/1965, Aquarius Snake) : The two rappers share a close friendship. They famously collaborated on Dre's debut solo album, The Chronic (1992), which proved to be a catalyst for both of their later successes. Dre described in 2018: "Back in the day, Snoop came to me at a very low point in my life. I had no money for food. I didn't even have furniture in my house...Snoop is always there for me, ready to work, and constantly motivating and pushing me and making me believe I could do it. I mean, I could always hear his voice in my head...I cannot imagine where I'd be in my life if I had not collaborated with Snoop...[We] became family...We always show up for each other no matter what that is. Just imagine having a person like that in your life for almost 30 years."

John Mayer (10/16/1977, Libra Snake), Jennifer Aniston (2/11/1969, Aquarius Monkey) : The actor and musician formed a high-profile couple during the late 2000s and have continued to speak fondly about each other. Aniston has described, "It’s funny when you hit a place in a relationship and you both realise, we maybe need to do something else, but you still really, really love each other. It’s painful...I deeply, deeply care about him; we talk, we adore one another. And that’s where it is." Mayer asked an interviewer, "Have you ever loved somebody, loved her completely, but had to end the relationship for life reasons?"

Pig and Snake

Compatibility overview

In contrast to the usually more equivocal teachings of the Western zodiac, Chinese astrology takes no prisoners when it comes to matches that are considered unfavourable. Sadly, the match between the firsteast and secondeast has a terrible reputation for causing conflict and stress to both parties. There is another side to the coin, however—for, unsettling as it may be, this match is also capable of producing some stunning benefits.

Facing each other across the Chinese zodiac wheel are six Opposite matches, one of which is the combination of the Pig and Snake. Typically for this oppositional energy, it is hard to imagine two personalities with less in common than the seductive Snake and the pure-hearted Pig.

The Snake, gloriously attractive and profoundly philosophical in outlook, can also be calculating and ethically flexible when it comes to advancing their own interests. The Pig, by contrast, is the most trusting and benevolent of all the signs—any form of guile or subterfuge typically causes them distress. Communications between these two thus tend to become inevitably fraught. The Snake may feel as if their sage advice is being ignored, their cherished talents being belittled or wasted. The Pig, on the other hand, may sense either that they are being humiliated or manipulated, or that they are powerless to protect the Snake from being wounded. The potential weaknesses of both signs may thus be magnified, with the Snake becoming envious, conniving, or judgemental, the Pig turning to self-sabotage, over-indulgence, or belligerence.

A particular site of discord for these two is finances, or really any kind of shared resources. Even when relaxed, the Snake tends to be jealously guarded about expenditure. Faced with the carefree indulgences of the Pig, the Snake may have conniptions! The poor stressed Pig, meanwhile, is apt to lose themselves to extravagance or guilt. As strange as it may seem, however, there are some powerful redeeming features to this relationship. Indeed, in terms of ultimate results, this connection can prove every bit as fruitful as the challenges are disturbing. Because each of these signs is so strong in those character traits where the other is weakest, their combined qualities as a duo forms a complete spectrum of energy. Hence any kind of collaboration or association between these two—as difficult as it may be for the Snake and Pig themselves—can be brilliantly impactful.

Even if these two signs struggle to take as much pleasure in the process as they would with other signs, joint enterprises between the Snake and Pig can prove truly, transformationally, life-changing.

David Letterman and Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey (1/29/1954, Aquarius Snake), David Letterman (4/12/1947, Aries Pig) : The pair of legendary talk show hosts shared a long-running tension, beginning with Winfrey's appearance on Late Night with David Letterman (1982-1993). After the two later reconciled, and Letterman appeared on Oprah's Next Chapter (2012—),Winfrey described: "You had asked me before to do [your show] in Chicago...and it was a terrible experience for me. The guy in the audience started yelling, ‘Get her, Dave!’ You were sort of baiting the audience, and there were a bunch of drunk guys down the front. I was trying to like, you know, mitigate the whole thing, and it felt so uncomfortable to me. I didn't want to have that experience again." Also reportedly contributing to the unease between them was Letterman leaving Winfrey with the bill at a restaurant they both happened to be visiting at the same time, Oprah refusing to acknowledge Letterman when they were in the same place, Letterman making fun of Oprah's name when he presented the 2010 Academy Awards ("Oprah? Uma [Thurman]. Uma? Oprah.").

Matthew Weiner (6/29/1965, Cancer Snake), Jon Hamm (3/10/1971, Pisces Pig) : The actor and writer/producer/director established a memorable legacy through their collaboration on the acclaimed TV show, Mad Men (2007-2017). Studio executives at AMC were apparently loath to cast Hamm in the lead role, but Weiner was adamant that he was the best choice. Hamm described later, "I auditioned about seven or eight times and I was just thinking, God, at this point, I've pretty much read every single scene in the pilot to somebody. What do I have to do?" A former SVP at AMC, Christina Wayne, described: "We were like, 'Really? This is the guy you want?' Matt [Weiner] was telling us he just knew it in his gut and he could see it."

Christopher Plummer and Julie Andrews

Julie Andrews (10/1/1935, Libra Pig), Christopher Plummer (12/13/1929, Sagittarius Snake) : The two actors memorably appeared together in The Sound of Music (1965). However, Plummer was less than complimentary about both the film—which he famously called, "The Sound of Mucus"—and acting with his co-star, which he described as, "[L]ike getting hit over the head with a Valentine card."

Simon Cowell (10/7/1959, Libra Pig), Howard Stern (1/12/1954, Capricorn Snake) : The two outspoken media personalities became involved in a heated feud, after Cowell replaced Stern as a judge on America's Got Talent (2006- ) in 2015. When hackers subsequently released internal Sony emails, they apparently revealed that Cowell had lobbied to have Stern fired and to replace him. Stern reportedly said on his radio show in 2019, "Personally would I love to see Simon Cowell [expletive] suck one up his [expletive]. In other words, would I love to see him fall flat on his face...My only beef with [Cowell] is he had a campaign behind my back, which I wouldn't have known if the Koreans hadn't hacked Sony. They exposed these emails he had going, 'We can get rid of Stern and I'll work for so much cheaper.' And by the way, if I had really wanted that job, then I would've been pissed. But I just find him sleazy and he is a liar."

Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards

Denise Richards (2/17/1971, Aquarius Pig), Charlie Sheen (9/3/1965, Virgo Snake) : The two actors were married from 2002 to 2006. They had two children. Their divorce was famously acrimonious, including court proceedings and a custody dispute. Interviewed in 2022, Richards described: "The behind-the-scenes stuff was way worse than what was out there. It was really bad...There is a lot that the public doesn’t know, and you never know what goes on behind closed doors. It was not a good situation...[I asked myself, ] [w]ould I want my daughters to be married to this man? No offense to him, but it’s true. And I think he would take that, he would understand what I’m saying. ... It was very toxic."


Combined Relationship Horoscope

Final Words

The Trine match of firstwest and secondwest is one of the most illustrious in the Western zodiac, a delightfully enriching influence conducive to effortlessly close collaboration and great personal fulfillment. The Chinese zodiac match, however, is a far cry from this natural harmony—firsteast and secondeast share a take-no-prisoners, at times savagely combative opposition, potentially filled with explosive disagreements. The key to this relationship may be channeling the potent firsteast/secondeast combination into arresting and revolutionary achievements—something the Trine energy of firstwest/secondwest may ably equip them to do.
