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 Horse and Tiger pairing is a truly wonderful energy match, attracting both inspirational and profoundly stabilising energy in the Chinese zodiac.
The central concept underlying Chinese astrology is the four Trine Families. One of these families includes the Horse and Tiger (with their kindred spirit, the Dog). This family is bound together by spirited, righteous energy. They are driven to succeed, and willing to make all kinds of sacrifices to achieve their goals, yet they also aspire to noble values of egalitarianism and service to others. Early contacts between the Horse and Tiger thus often represent a true meeting of minds. Horse natives are rarely shy about putting their prodigious talents on show—their pioneering brand of razzle-dazzle will likely captivate the Tiger from first sight. Even quieter Tiger souls have a commanding presence, and their noble pronouncements tend to immediately impress and attract the freewheeling Horse.
As these two get to know each other better, the real magic can potentially take hold. The Horse and Tiger are each defined by an essential inner contradiction. They are dyed-in-the-wool independents, reluctant to defer to anyone else's vision or authority, yet they also feel forever incomplete without a trusted partner or inner circle. The great compatibility between the Horse and Tiger means that somehow their respective needs for autonomy bring them together instead of wedging them apart. These two can comfortably spend time at a distance, or intensely challenge or confront one another, and the connection between them will only grow stronger as a result. Indeed, as is typical for Trine Family matches like this one, it is the evergreen nature of this combination that sometimes represents its greatest risk. For this kind of precious connection can sometimes seem too natural, too effortless, to be worthy of total commitment.
If the Horse and Tiger trust and invest in the power of their shared energy, then whatever the context, their relationship can be a once-in-a-lifetime source of belonging, adventure, and potency.

François-Henri Pinault (5/28/1962, Gemini Tiger), Salma Hayek (9/2/1966, Virgo Horse) : The actor and business entrepreneur had a daughter together in 2007 and have been married since 2009. In 2021, Hayek was quoted as saying, "When there is conflict, we put all the energy in solving the problem - never finding who to blame or 'You should have done this or that.' No, all our energy goes into: 'How do we solve this?'"
Pauletta Washington (9/28/1950, Libra Tiger), Denzel Washington (12/28/1954, Capricorn Horse) : Married since 1983, the Washingtons have four children together. Denzel Washington has described: "The difference between a house and a home, it’s a big difference. You can buy a house, but that doesn’t make it a home—and not to say a man can’t make a home a home, but my wife has made our house a home, and raised these beautiful kids, and protected them and sacrificed for them. She did the heavy lifting."
Christine Baumgartner (3/4/1974, Pisces Tiger), Kevin Costner (1/18/1955, Capricorn Horse) : The actor and model/designer were together from around 2000 until Baumgartner surprised many by filing for divorce in 2023. They married in 2004 and have three children. Costner said in 2018, "Fear kept me from marrying Christine. I woke up and thought, Am I going to lose a beautiful woman who is willing to be with me to my very last breath because I am afraid to say yes to a child? That’s all it took. Sometimes you learn the thing you’re most afraid of will save your life."
Rande Gerber (4/27/1962, Taurus Tiger), Cindy Crawford (2/20/1966, Pisces Horse) : The supermodel and business entrepreneur have been married since 1998 and have two children together. Gerber has said about the relationship, "We started as friends and we remained friends. You have to just keep that friendship and fun in the relationship."
Robert Pattinson (5/13/1986, Taurus Tiger), Kristen Stewart (4/9/1990, Aries Horse) : The two actors became household names as stars of the Twilight film series. They dated between around 2009 to 2013, and for a time were one of the most famous celebrity couples in the world. Stewart continues to speak positively about Pattinson and their relationship. She has described: "When me and Rob were together, we did not have an example to go by. So much was taken from us that, in trying to control one aspect, we were just like, 'No, we will never talk about it. Never. Because it’s ours.'"
Jackie Sandler(9/24/1974, Libra Tiger), Adam Sandler (9/9/1966, Virgo Horse) : The two actors have been married since 2003 and have two daughters together. About his critically-acclaimed performance in the film Uncut Gems (2019), Adam Sandler said: "My badass wife, she gave me the balls to take the part. I was scared and she said, 'Go [expletive] do that and you can do that [expletive]' and we rehearsed together all the time."
Stevie Wonder (5/13/1950, Taurus Tiger), Aretha Franklin (3/25/1942, Aries Horse) : The two celebrated musicians shared a longtime close friendship. After Franklin died in 2018, Wonder described visiting during her final days: "[Franklin] wasn't able to speak back, but her family felt that she could hear me, and so I just said all the things that I've always said and told her to say hello to my sister [Renee Hardaway] that I lost this year as well...She was just consistently a great human being, and she always — even with whatever turmoil may have been happening in her life, even through her illness — she did not put that on anybody else. She believed, I think that most of all she was doing God's work, and she was. She brought joy to others' lives, and she will — her voice and the essence of her will long [out]live all of us that are here right now."
Kirstie Alley (1/12/1951, Capricorn Tiger), John Travolta (2/18/1954, Aquarius Horse) : The two actors starred memorably in the Look Who's Talking films and formed a close friendship. Alley described later: "I almost ran off and married John. I did love him, I still love him. If I hadn’t been married I would’ve gone and married him and I would’ve been in an airplane because he has his own plane…He's a very generous person. He's very interested. If you ever talk to John, and this is genuine with him, you will become the most interesting thing that he's ever met in his life."
