Western Zodiac
Libra and Scorpio
Compatibility overview
As a match between adjacent signs around the Western zodiac wheel, the combination of firstwest and secondwest has not always enjoyed the best reputation. Orthodox astrology suggests that these two may be most comfortable remaining at arm's length, much like real-life neighbors who fear that over-familiarity could backfire in the future. With time, however, these two can prove to be highly effective collaborators, capable of developing a close and deeply supportive bond.

The Semi-Sextile connection shared by next-door signs Libra and Scorpio has traditionally attracted some skepticism. For starters, this is a minor aspect—one of only two (with the Quincunx)—meaning the energy is somewhat indeterminate. This can feel powerfully liberating at times, but it can equally contribute a certain aimlessness to the relationship.
The real uncertainty here, however, stems from the respective elements. Libra is a quintessential Air sign, a devoted explorer of intellectual realms. They sample multitudes of ideas with great enthusiasm, seeking out the most diverse sources they can find, and rarely taking concrete action without extraordinary research and reflection. Scorpio, by contrast, is a profoundly emotional creature, a deeply sensitive yet powerful presence who cannot help but experience life as a spectrum of extreme highs and lows. Early interactions between Libra and Scorpio may thus struggle to find common ground. Libra may find Scorpio much too serious, as if Scorpio's legendary sense of humor is too cutting, and Scorpio's moods generally are claustrophobically brooding and depressing. For Scorpio, on the other hand, Libra may seem altogether too flighty and superficial, as if they flit around annoyingly on the surface of life without ever penetrating the real existential substance that is most important.
This kind of initial wariness means many Libra and Scorpio pairings never progress beyond a respectful distance. If these two signs take the time to understand each other better, however, some marvelously surprising results may occur. Libra's pure Cardinal modality, which emphasizes unbridled creativity and new beginnings, complements perfectly Scorpio's Fixed energy, a driving force towards actualization and productiveness. Mutual projects may have to accommodate the signs' different instincts, but in fact Libra and Scorpio are natural collaborators. Their combined output may be highly creative and original, and gain considerable momentum over time. These signs also have much to learn from each other. Libra, for example, may find that in Scorpio's company they take themselves more seriously and are less likely to procrastinate. Scorpio, meanwhile, can enjoy a break from weighty intensity, and enjoy the kind of effortless sociability and enthusiasm Libra is famous for.
Ultimately, these two may never shake a sense of respectful difference, and independent spheres of activity are probably inevitable. Yet the affinities between Libra and Scorpio may contribute eventually to a dependable, warm, and greatly rewarding bond.

Matt Damon (10/8/1970, Libra Dog), Jimmy Kimmel (11/13/1967, Scorpio Sheep) : Actor Damon and talk show host Kimmel have shared a legendary fake "feud" for almost 20 years, verbally jousting with each other on the show, Jimmy Kimmel Live! (2003-present), and at multiple Academy Awards ceremonies. Their relationship began one night in 2005, when Kimmel ended his show by saying, "Apologies to Matt Damon, but we ran out of time." Damon explained in 2021: "I'd never met Jimmy. He literally pulled my name out of thin air one night...He could've said, you know, George [Clooney] ― he could have said somebody else. But he just, for some reason, maybe I had a movie out that week or something, but he just said my name. And it changed the course of both of our lives. We've kept this feud going for, you know, it's gotta be 15 years now. I've had a lot of fun doing it."
Serena Williams (9/26/1981, Libra Rooster), Ciara (10/25/1985, Scorpio Ox) : Singer Ciara and professional tennis legend Williams share a longstanding close friendship. Ciara described in 2022: "I think the key to our friendship is the fact that when we get together it's not about what we do in our professional lives — it's about being free to experience our authentic selves with each other. The world gets to see her passion for tennis when she's on the court, but behind the scenes she carries that same passion and enthusiasm."
Doja Cat (10/21/1995, Libra Pig), SZA (11/8/1989, Scorpio Snake) : Singer/songwriter SZA and rapper/singer/songwriter Doja Cat share a supportive friendship. They have collaborated on the tracks, "Kiss Me More" (2021), and "Kill Bill" (2023), with the former winning the Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance in 2021. Interviewing Doja Cat in 2021, SZA described: "I really feel like I relate the most to you because...I always felt like I couldn’t fit into anything. That my music isn’t 'Black enough' with 'Drew Barrymore.' Or I’m doing s— that’s strange. I never felt that as a Black girl, I could make music and be in these realms. You make music in all these other realms and make it sound like it touched my inner mind and spirit. It’s like, you’re exactly who I needed when I was in high school [and] college. I just wanted to feel like it’s ok to be an individual that isn’t really planted but is highly mutable and superfluid. Working with you was literally my dream."
Mira Sorvino (9/28/1967, Libra Sheep), Christopher Backus (10/30/1981, Scorpio Rooster) : The two actors have been married since 2004 and have four children. Sorvino described in 2021: "Date nights kids are absolutely essential when you have four children, because so much of your time is spent parenting. You're next to each other, but you're relating to your kids, rather than to each other. So we'll go on date nights where we'll leave the kids with our trusted, wonderful, amazing nanny. We'll go to a hotel somewhere...or maybe we'll go to Beverly Hills, or Venice Beach, or just someplace out of our zone, and just go to a dinner ... so that we get to be a couple, not a couple with children, just for that moment. That's really important."
Kate Winslet (10/5/1975, Libra Rabbit), Leonardo DiCaprio (11/11/1974, Scorpio Tiger) : The two actors share a strong friendship. They famously co-starred in the film, Titanic (1997), and later collaborated again in Revolutionary Road (2008). Winslet described in 2021: "Do you know Leo just turned 47? I turned 21 on that shoot [Titanic], and Leo turned 22...[On hearing that Di Caprio had complained about the arduous Titanic production] I remember! I remember that he was [miserable]! It wasn’t pleasant for any of us, but we were all in it together. Though he had way more days off than I ever bloody did. I guess I was raised to be grateful and just get on with it. I didn’t feel it was my right to be miserable, and if I was miserable I certainly would not have let a journalist know...[About meeting for the first time in three years] I couldn’t stop crying, I’ve known him for half my life! It’s not as if I’ve found myself in New York or he’s been in London and there’s been a chance to have dinner or grab a coffee and a catchup. We haven’t been able to leave our countries. Like so many friendships globally, we’ve missed each other because of Covid. He’s my friend, my really close friend. We’re bonded for life."
Graham Greene (10/2/1904, Libra Dragon), Evelyn Waugh (10/28/1903, Scorpio Rabbit) : The two celebrated British novelists shared a close friendship. Greene wrote in his autobiography, Ways of Escape (1980): "I was for many years puzzled by [Waugh's] reputation for rudeness and cruelty—I must have known him well for nearly a dozen years without seeing any example to justify it. I had even stayed with him several times in the country (a feat regarded as extraordinary by some of his friends) and had seen only an excellent and witty host, one who disguised his own inner torment in drollery rather than disturb his guest...Those who have built Evelyn up as a sort of sacred monster have left out the other side...When I come to die, I shall wish he were beside me, for he would give me no easy comfort."
Gwen Stefani (10/3/1969, Libra Rooster), Gavin Rossdale (10/30/1965, Scorpio Snake) : The two musicians met and began a long-distance relationship when their respective bands—No Doubt (Stefani) and Bush (Rossdale)—toured together in 1995. They were married from 2002 to 2016, and have three children. While they were together, Rossdale reportedly had affairs with Courtney Love and their children's nanny, discovered he had a 15-year-old lovechild, and admitted an affair with the male singer Marilyn in the 1980s. Stefani once said that No Doubt's album, Rock Steady (2001), was "[A]bout how hard it is having a relationship that's not only long-distance but also between two people in different touring rock bands." In 2020, Rossdale said: "It's a lifetime. I still think [Stefani]'s incredible. It was a lovely 20 years and we have three amazing children. There were a lot of positives, and with time they'll become more and more obvious."

Four Trine Families provide the backbone of the Chinese zodiac. The Ox and Rooster together make up one of these (along with their natural ally, the Snake). This family tends to attract great fortune in ventures, especially of a commercial nature, that reward tenacity, patience, and excellent judgement. The Rooster is sometimes underestimated in these respects, because they are usually flamboyant fashionistas with a lively, even brash, exterior. Onlookers might not expect them to gel with the usually more staid and obviously purposeful Ox. In truth, however, these two complement each other wonderfully.
The Ox tends to guard the more excitable side of their character, preferring to seem unflappable even in the company of those they know well. But the Rooster's brand of extroversion helps the Ox to relax, to feel comfortable about revealing their more adventurous side. Don't be surprised to find these two injecting some hilarity into social situations! Perhaps the Ox is put at ease because beneath the Rooster's panache lies such profound diligence and commitment. For their part, the Rooster is likely to find themselves deeply impressed by the stamina and shrewdness of the indefatigable Ox. Together, not only will these two be able to draw on an extraordinary ability to identify untapped opportunities, especially of a financial nature, but they will have almost limitless reserves of determination and patience to ensure ultimate success in their chosen venture.
Outsiders may find the shared world between the Ox and Rooster somewhat difficult to penetrate, and there is potential for inflexibility or insensitivity to others. But it would be unwise to bet against these two achieving whatever they set their minds to, not to mention having a whale of a time together along the way.

Pharrell Williams (4/5/1973, Aries Ox), Ariana Grande (6/26/1993, Cancer Rooster) : Musician/producer Williams produced and collaborated on singer/songwriter/actor Grande's Sweetener album. Grande described: "I don’t mix well with people who have crazy egos and right away [Williams] was super fun and chill and nice and there wasn’t any of that. He was more worried about getting to know me and making sure I was comfortable."
Sammy Davis, Jr. (12/8/1925, Sagittarius Ox), Kim Novak (2/13/1933, Aquarius Rooster) : The actor and entertainer reportedly shared an intense but risky romance in the late 1950s. Novak later described: "It was a very dangerous relationship then—a white woman and a black man, no matter his status—it simply didn’t mix publicly. I was suddenly in the eye of a hurricane."
Warren Beatty (3/30/1937, Aries Ox), Diane Keaton (1/5/1946, Capricorn Rooster) : The two actors had a high-profile romance around the making of Red in 1981. Thirty-five years later, Keaton still talks fondly about Beatty: "He is curious about everyone. He is so seductive in that regard. He makes you feel like you are the only one, the person that matters; that you are just absolutely fascinating, you know? And it’s with everyone, across the board. He just has this presence."
James Gandolfini (9/18/1961, Virgo Ox), David Chase (8/22/1945, Leo Rooster) : The actor and film-maker were close friends, who shared an iconic collaboration as the creator and lead actor in the TV series, The Sopranos (1999-2007). In a eulogy at Gandolfini's funeral in 2013, Chase described: "[V]ery early on, we were shooting in that really hot summer in humid New Jersey, and I looked over and you were sitting in an aluminum beach chair with your slacks rolled up to your knees, and black socks and black shoes, and a damp, wet handkerchief on your head...I was filled with love, and I knew then that I was in the right place...It made me so proud of our heritage to see you do that, and when I say that you were my brother, this has a lot to do with that. Italian-American. Italian worker. Builder. That Jersey thing, whatever that means. The same social class. I really feel, though that I’m older than you, I always felt that we were brothers — and partly based on that day. I was filled with so much love for everything that we were doing and what we were about to embark on. I also feel you’re my brother because of the things we both loved. Family. Work. People in all their imperfection. Food. Alcohol. Talking. Rage. And a desire to bring the whole structure crashing down."
Woody Harrelson (7/23/1961, Leo Ox), Matthew McConaughey (11/4/1969, Scorpio Rooster) : The two actors have been close friends for decades and have collaborated multiple times, including in Welcome to Hollywood (1998/2000), EDtv (1999), Surfer Dude (2008), and True Detective (2014). Responding to the suggestion that they might in fact be biological brothers, McConaughey said in 2023: "You know, where I start and where [Harrelson] ends, and where he starts and I end, has always been like a murky line. And that’s part of our bromance, right? My kids call him Uncle Woody. His kids call me Uncle Matthew. And you see pictures of us and my family thinks a lot of pictures of him are me. His family thinks a lot of pictures of me are him."
Sissy Spacek (12/25/1949, Capricorn Ox), Jack Fisk (12/19/1945, Sagittarius Rooster) : The actor and production designer/director have been married since 1971 and have two daughters together. Spacek has described: "First we met working together, and throughout the 1970s we just did almost every film together. We really supported one another and we really understood the business. It was what brought us together. And we were passionate about the same things, including movie-making. And that's something that we continue to share."
Naomi Osaka (10/16/1997, Libra Ox), Serena Williams (9/26/1981, Libra Rooster) : The two champion tennis players forged a strong bond after they met in the final of the US Open in 2018, when Williams received three on-court violations, and Osaka was visibly upset after her victory. In the aftermath of the match, Williams wrote an apology to Osaka, saying: "As I said on the court, I am so proud of you and I am truly sorry. I thought I was doing the right thing in sticking up for myself. But I had no idea the media would pit us against each other. I would love the chance to live that moment over again. I am, was, and will always be happy for you and supportive of you...All my love and your fan, Serena." Osaka responded, "People can misunderstand anger for strength because they can’t differentiate between the two. No one has stood up for themselves the way you have and you need to continue trailblazing." The pair have since maintained their supportive relationship, with Osaka saying in 2021: "It’s always an honour playing [Williams]...I was a little kid watching her play, and just to be on the court playing against her for me is a dream."
Kate Beckinsale (7/26/1973, Leo Ox), Pete Davidson (11/16/1993, Scorpio Rooster) : The actor/model and comedian/actor attracted pervasive media attention when they dated in 2019, with Beckinsale being nearly 20 years older. Seemingly referring to the relationship, Beckinsale said at the time: "I’ve never been in this position before — never dated anybody who comes with their own bag of mischief. It’s all quite shocking, and something to get used to. I think if you liked the person less, you would bow out of it. If that were the main thrust of the relationship, there would be a problem. But it’s not."
