Signs like Capricorn and Libra, that are three steps apart around the Western zodiac wheel, make a hard 90° angle, known as a Square aspect. This is not a match for the faint of heart.
Square energy is notoriously powerful and demanding. These two are likely to realize quickly that there is little they see eye to eye about. Libra naturally tends to consider every question from every possible angle, whereas Capricorn is defined by their motivation for control. Libra thus tends to resent what they see as Capricorn's attempts to force them into decisions or courses of action, while Capricorn worries that Libra will squander time or potential. Part of the problem stems from the respective elements.
Libra's Air encourages intellectual freedom and exciting new possibilities, where as an Earth sign Capricorn is guided by patience, determination, and predictability. Further, these signs share the same Cardinal modality, which emphasizes beginnings and inception. With little to balance this pure, initiating energy, and such differing instincts, these signs can both feel as if joint initiatives are doomed to fail at the first hurdle. This can bring out the worst in both signs, making Libra ill-tempered and indecisive, and Capricorn morose and inflexible.
On the positive side, the magic of Square energy is that it is essentially constructive. For all the tension between Capricorn and Libra, they can also be strongly drawn to one another—intellectually, personally, or sexually. They can also achieve greater self-knowledge and confidence than in just about any other combination. A Square match has a devil's advocate-like quality, as if every motivation is being tested to see how valuable or worthwhile it really is.
Ultimately, whether Capricorn and Libra move beyond their connection or sustain it together, the energy is fundamentally advantageous, with both signs likely to achieve a clarity about themselves and their aspirations they never thought possible.

Kim Kardashian (10/21/1980, Libra Monkey), Ray J (1/17/1981, Capricorn Monkey) : The media personality and singer/actor were a couple between 2002 and 2006. The relationship has attracted significant ongoing attention because of a sex tape released in 2007. In 2022, Ray J. reportedly criticized Kardashian, saying, "I've sat in the shadows for over 14 years allowing the Kardashians to use my name, to abuse my name, make billions of dollars over a decade-and-a-half talking about a topic I've never really spoken about. I've never leaked anything. I have never leaked a sex tape in my life...She's always had all the tapes...Once I pitched the idea to her, just playing around a little bit, that's when she jumped on the idea, talked to her mom and it was out of my hands from there."
Jeff Goldblum (10/22/1952, Libra Dragon), Emilie Livingston (1/4/1983, Capricorn Dog) : The actor and dancer have been married since 2014 and have two children together. In 2018, Livingston posted to Instagram: "Some people like to play games and play hard to get but we were just honest and aware from day one and took our relationship day by day until I had to express my feelings of wanting a family with HIM and to share the rest of my life with his beautiful soul! That was a scary day, opening myself up completely...we just kept talking about it together and with our therapist until we decided that it was the right thing to do! Ladies stay true to yourself, have fun but when it stops being fun be honest with yourself and your mate and be open to discussions that may be uncomfortable at first but worth releasing in a calm and safe environment!!! I love this man with ALL of my heart! ♥️ Thank you universe 🙏🏻"
Annie Leibovitz (10/2/1949, Libra Ox), Susan Sontag (1/16/1933, Capricorn Monkey) : The photographer and writer were in a relationship for 15 years. Liebovitz has described: "Words like 'companion' and 'partner' were not in our vocabulary. We were two people who helped each other through our lives. The closest word is still 'friend'." About her decision to have children, Liebovitz said: "I think [Sontag] wanted me to herself. I think she didn't think I was serious enough. 'Let's talk about it when you're serious about it,' she would say. And I made a decision myself to have children and then she was very supportive. But it took me making my own decision. She loved [Liebovitz's daughter] Sarah. She just loved Sarah.
Sting (10/2/1951, Libra Rabbit), Trudie Styler (1/6/1954, Capricorn Snake) : The musician and actor/film producer have been married since 1992 and have four children. Their relationship began with scandal, as Sting lived next door to Styler with his previous wife, who was also Styler's best friend. In 2006, Styler described: "I don't know how happy I was when I met Sting. I always had this difficulty of not really knowing who I was. But I'm happy now. I don't look back - it sounds a bit New Age and wanky, but I prefer to look forward. I know where I came from and I hope I don't take anything for granted."
Marcello Mastroianni (9/28/1924, Libra Rat), Faye Dunaway (1/14/1941, Capricorn Dragon) : The two actors famously lived together in the late 1960s, despite Mastroianni being married at the time. Dunaway wrote in 1995, "There are days when I look back on those years with Marcello and have moments of real regret. There is that one piece of me that thinks that had we married, we might be married still. It was one of our fantasies, that we would grow old together. He thought we would be like Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn, a love kept secret for a lifetime. Private and only belonging to the two of us."
John Lennon (10/9/1940, Libra Dragon), Phil Spector (12/26/1939, Capricorn Rabbit) : The musician and music producer (who was later convicted of murder and died in prison) collaborated extensively, including on the landmark Imagine album. Lennon described: "[Spector's] got a tremendous ego. He considers the artist like a film director considers actors, just pieces of garbage… canned goods that you bring on and wheel off. He’d like to bury the artist and so the production is the main thing. But we didn’t allow him to do that to us. So on that level it was very good, because we used what we considered is his amazing ear for pop music and sound, without letting it become [deep voice] ‘Spector’."

The Rabbit and Snake may encounter both powerful affinities and tensions in this energy match.
At the heart of the Chinese zodiac is the concept of the four Trine Families, which naturally divide into two streams. The families of the Rabbit (with the Pig and Sheep) and the Snake (with the Ox and Rooster) belong to different streams, which contributes an underlying instability to their connection. However, while there are some seriously challenging matches between their families (e.g., the Rabbit and Rooster, or the Snake and Pig), the Rabbit and Snake manage to avoid the most disturbing aspects of this surrounding energy.
These two signs share some powerful affinities. The Rabbit is instinctively an artist, highly sensitive and attuned to the emotional realm, and these traits resonate profoundly with the deep-thinking, philosophically-minded Snake. The Snake exudes sensuality and usually possesses an other-worldly attractiveness that can be powerfully captivating for the imaginative, impressionable Rabbit. Indeed, it is perhaps the mutual appreciation of beauty that binds these signs together most strongly, and they often feel deeply protective towards each other, as if the preciousness of the other sign is something that should be carefully guarded and shielded from harm.
Tensions are likely to surface around issues of freedom and resources. The Rabbit usually seeks to avoid drama at all costs, while the Snake can be terribly vulnerable to jealousy, so these two are at risk of a vicious circle where the Snake's possessiveness moves the Rabbit to wander, which makes the Snake yet more possessive. One of the Snake's great strengths is their pragmatism and skill in shaping social dynamics, which the more innocent-minded Rabbit may interpret as manipulative or untrustworthy. These pressures on the relationship may be quite emotionally fraught, given the soulful nature of these signs' initial connection. It may take some time for them to reconcile themselves to the kind of independent and respectful distance that in fact enables their relationship to function best.
With that said, the Rabbit and Snake will rarely, if ever, lose the sense of aesthetic admiration that unites them, and there are strong prospects for an enduring and stirring relationship long into the future.

In her memoir, A Doctor in the House: My Life with Ben Carson (2016), Candy Carson described: "The life of a neurosurgeon isn’t an easy one...The life of a neurosurgeon’s wife isn’t much easier. But it’s all been worth it."
Keely Shaye Smith (9/25/1963, Libra Rabbit), Pierce Brosnan (5/16/1953, Taurus Snake) : The actor and author/journalist have been married for 25 years and have two children. Brosnan has described how the couple, "[L]isten to the sounds of each other’s voices and [sort] out the world." Asked to describe the last perfect day in their relationship, Brosnan said: "It was yesterday. I painted in my studio, then I went down and sat on the beach, read and did some drawing — and then I had lunch with Keely."
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. Shortly before her 2003 engagement to Elfman, Fonda was involved in a serious car accident.

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."

Final Words
firstwest and secondwest share a Square aspect that represents some of the most challenging energy in the Western zodiac—yet even as they struggle to reach agreement together, they can reap far-reaching benefits in terms of individual priorities, growth and direction. Complicating matters here is the combination of the firsteast and secondeast, who may admire and care deeply for one another, but who can also feel instinctively somewhat nervous or distant when together for extended periods. Ultimately, the best aspects of this relationship have terrific potential, and with requisite independence and clear communication, these two may achieve lasting personal growth and solidarity.
