Compatibility overview
Traditionally, astrologers saw firstwest and secondwest as strangers with next to nothing in common. In practice, however, the ambiguity of this combination can be surprisingly delightful, and these two are capable of powerful creative synergies and lasting intimacy.

The interval of five steps around the Western zodiac wheel, as there are between Libra and Pisces, is known as a Quincunx (or inconjunct) aspect. In classical astrology, this 150° angle had quite a poor reputation. It was thought that the two signs were too different, too fundamentally out of alignment, to enjoy a meaningfully positive connection.
Admittedly, the respective elements are not well suited. Libra's Air energy is irrepressibly intellectual, whereas Pisces is the most emotionally sensitive and variable of all the signs. Libra's enthusiasm for brainstorming from all angles can thus often strike Pisces as at once exhausting and superficial. Pisces' deep feelings and moodiness, on the other hand, may weigh down Libra's instinctive excitability. Libra may crave some headspace that is less sombre or changeable.
The beauty of the Quincunx connection, however—and the reason the Libra/Pisces match is too often underestimated—is that the tension here is rarely antagonistic. In fact, for both signs, the inevitable misunderstandings or contrasting instincts between them can often seem pleasantly intriguing. Perplexed but amiable banter is par for the course. Affection, physical or otherwise, flows gently and easily. Libra's Cardinal modality, with its always-beginning purity and excitement, gels superbly with Pisces' end-and-beyond, contemplative Mutable energy. Therefore, while collaboration between these two may need plenty of separation to cater to their essential differences, the prospects for ultimate success are actually considerable. Creative projects that blend the contrasting qualities Libra and Pisces bring can be especially impressive and rewarding. Intimate or family collaborations, too, can harness the pair's disparate energy into remarkably effective unions. Importantly, the Quincunx energy between Libra and Pisces can tthough be far less resistant to headwinds than other relationships. Therefore it is important for problems to be worked out quickly.
With requisite individual space and effective dispute resolution this contrary pairing can defy expectations and succeed astonishingly well in a wide range of contexts.

Michael Douglas (9/25/1944, Libra Monkey), Sharon Stone (3/10/1958, Pisces Dog) : I found that as I began dipping my toe into Kamala’s world, it brought us even closer together. I realized how much of yourself you leave on the trail, how much these stories weigh on you, and—though I couldn’t imagine it possible before this—I grew to understand and admire who she is and what she’s been able to accomplish even more. She had such a tremendous weight on her shoulders, and we were in a fight for the soul of this nation—together.
Dorothea Hurley (9/29/1962, Libra Tiger), Jon Bon Jovi (3/2/1962, Pisces Tiger) : The musician/founding member of Bon Jovi and his partner met at high school. They have been together for over 40 years and celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary in 2019. They have four children together. Bon Jovi has described: "[Our secret is] [m]utual respect. Having grown up together and grown together. And we really like each other. We want to hang out...[W]e enjoy each other and we never fell for the trappings of what celebrity can do."
Tim Robbins (10/16/1958, Libra Dog), Robert Altman (2/20/1925, Pisces Ox) : The actor and actor/director collaborated on multiple occasions, including on the films The Player, Short Cuts, and Ready to Wear. In 1997, Altman expressed his admiration for Robbins, saying: "If an actor doesn't surprise me, I don't work with him again. They've got to show me something I could never think up myself. But what really amazed me was Tim's restraint as a director in Dead Man Walking. A lot of guys are facile at showing off. But he hid. To do that, you have to have your ego in the right place. I can't do that. It was masterful."
Gwyneth Paltrow (9/27/1972, Libra Rat), Daniel Craig (3/2/1968, Pisces Monkey) : The two actors have been friends since co-starring together in Sylvia (2003). Paltrow recently admitted to being somewhat overawed by Craig: "If you’re friends with someone before they become James Bond, and then they become James Bond and you’re nervous to see them at a party because they are now James Bond, is that weird?"
Mary Beth Hurt (9/26/1946, Libra Dog), Glenn Close (3/19/1947, Pisces Pig) : The two actors have been close friends since the 1970s. Close described: "I remember one time we were in an actor bar, and I think a famous tennis player came up and [Hurt] literally said, 'Shoo! Shoo! Go away.' She’s very funny, very smart, and I always felt a little like I didn’t quite measure up. Because I didn’t think I could be that kind of witty-funny. But I remember deciding that I’d much rather have Mary Beth as my friend than to try to be the wit of the party. And we’ve had this extraordinary friendship our whole careers."
Tom Petty (10/20/1950, Libra Tiger), George Harrison (2/25/1943, Pisces Sheep) : The two celebrated musicians became friends when they collaborated as part of The Travelling Wilburys. Petty described: "The Hindus think that when you meet someone and you feel really close to them immediately, that maybe you knew them in a past life. And that was how it was with George. We instantly became very close. And I remember him saying to me, 'You know I’m not going to let you out of my life now.' We really got along well, and shared a sense of humor. And we became very close friends."

Naturally, matches between natives of the same Chinese zodiac sign involve the same Trine Family. Like the elements in Western astrology, this means that the relationship begins on a sure footing from the outset. The family of the Dragon—which also includes the Monkey and Rat—emphasizes creativity, enthusiasm, and expression. And the Dragon is the most expressive sign of all, blessed with such a commanding presence they are destined to be the center of attention, whether they like it or not.
Two Dragons together will thus most likely share immediately an understanding of what it is like to inspire awe in others, for better and worse. They will respect each other's eternal passion for performance and desire for impact. They will sympathize with the other's loneliness, knowing the isolation that can result from—through no real fault of their own—tending to outface and overwhelm less intense signs.
There are, of course, drawbacks to having so much in common. The absence of contrary, balancing energy is something all own-sign astrological matches have to deal with. For two Dragons, each will be accustomed to being the star of the show; sharing the limelight may sometimes require playing an unfamiliar supporting role. There is also the Dragon's instinct for independence to contend with. The Dragon is by nature a quintessential "rolling stone". A pair of Dragons may shine blindingly bright together but find they roam too freely when apart. Sensitivity is not the Dragon's strongest suit, so they may not pick up on the growing distance between them until it is already too late.
None of these potential tensions is insurmountable, however. If the relationship between two Dragons becomes the true source of their attention, impact, and reward, then the affinities and emotional understanding they share can provide incredible sustenance. Dragons simply do not do things by halves. If two Dragons forge a successful relationship—whether professional, familial, or intimate—then they are likely to be no less astonishing together than they are individually.

Rihanna (2/20/1988, Pisces Dragon), A$AP Rocky (10/3/1988, Libra Dragon) : The musician/businesswoman and rapper/record producer have been friends since at least 2012 and were first romantically linked in 2013. In 2021, they announced publicly they were a couple, and in 2022 Rihanna gave birth to their baby son. Previously a self-confessed ladies' man, A$AP was asked in 2021 what it was like being in a relationship: "So much better. So much better when you got the One. She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. I think when you know, you know. She's the One."
Lil Dicky (3/15/1988, Pisces Dragon), Benny Blanco (3/8/1988, Pisces Dragon) : The rapper and music producer are close friends who starred memorably together in the show, Dave. Speaking of Lil Dicky's "No Stone Unturned Method" in the recording studio, Blanco has described: "[Lil Dicky's] the worst person I've ever been in the studio with. But also the best person."
Burt Bacharach (5/12/1928, Taurus Dragon), Dionne Warwick (12/12/1940, Sagittarius Dragon) : The songwriter and singer shared an iconic collaboration (with lyricist Hal David), recording 33 hits between 1962 and 1971, including "I Say A Little Prayer" and "Walk on By". Though they fell out in the 1970s, they reconciled in 1985 to record a version of "That's What Friends Are For". Warwick described at the time: "We realized we were more than just friends. We were family. Time has a way of giving people the opportunity to grow and understand ... Working with Burt is not a bit different from how it used to be. He expects me to deliver and I can. He knows what I'm going to do before I do it, and the same with me. That's how intertwined we've been."
Joss Ackland (2/29/1928, Pisces Dragon), Rosemary Kirkcaldy (1/15/1929, Capricorn Dragon) : The two actors were married for over fifty years until Kirkcaldy's death in 2002. They had seven children and 32 grandchildren. In 2009, Joss Ackland wrote a moving tribute in which he described caring for Kirkcaldy as she suffered from motor neuron disease during her final years and the great bond they shared: "Sixty years ago, less was considerably more: the pleasure of being together, the joy of the first touch, the longing for the unobtainable—and then, when the unobtainable was obtained, more became considerably more. We were soulmates. We loved each other more than we loved ourselves." Ackland also quoted Kirkcaldy's diary entries from the year before she died: "I woke at seven this morning with Joss crying—he'd had a bad dream. We then had a lovely cuddle. I do love Joss so very much. We've had the most wonderful, exciting, romantic life together, and I really don't want to leave my soulmate."
