Compatibility
Pisces Monkey and Sagittarius

As combative and intense as any relationship under the sun—yet there may be critical benefits here, as firstwest and secondwest offer rare prospects for personal growth, and the firsteast and secondeast can provide extraordinary achievements and social impact.

Western Zodiac
Pisces and Sagittarius
Compatibility overview
This match is at once explosive and enriching. As a Square connection, which occurs when Western signs are three steps apart on the zodiac wheel, the relationship between firstwest and secondwest attracts remarkably intense energy. Chances are, this influence will involve some important challenges, but it can also prove enormously beneficial.

Beware the Square! Though somewhat tongue-in-cheek, the idea that a warning may be necessary for the combination of Pisces and Sagittarius is not completely out of place. For there is no shortage of head-to-head confrontation in this supercharged pairing.
Classical approaches to astrology identify some serious headwinds here. The respective elements—the Fire of Sagittarius, the Water of Pisces—are generally regarded as one of the least compatible mixtures. Both signs share the somewhat elusive Mutable modality, so there is none of the balancing influence that Cardinal and Fixed signs offer these two in other combinations. Pisces, being typically dreamy, gentle, and polite, are likely to struggle with Sagittarius' sometimes brusque, even disdainful, manner of delivery. Sagittarius can be exceptionally driven, and may at times disapprove of Pisces as flaky, overly meek, or prone to wasting their time. However, while Pisces can seem idealistic to the point of fragility, they are usually loath to compromise on their commitment to beauty and propriety. Some of Sagittarius' requirements may thus seem to be more trouble than they're worth.
As surprising as it may seem, however, given all these tensions, there is also much to be gained here. Sagittarius has been called the most philosophical of the Western signs, and there is a powerful synergy between their instinctive and all-encompassing command of ethics and Pisces' innate sense of oneness with the universe. As ever, opposite personalities can share intense attraction, and while these two may challenge and confuse each other, they may equally share a kind of mystified admiration. Perhaps most importantly, there is a quality of "partner stand ups" to this relationship. By forcing each other to confront what is most important in their lives, their respective identities can rise together, building mutual and independent strength.
It's not an easy road for these two, by any means, but it may ultimately prove a long and rewarding one.

Frank Sinatra (12/12/1915, Sagittarius Rabbit), Quincy Jones (3/14/1933, Pisces Rooster) : The legendary singer and the composer/arranger/producer were friends who collaborated on several occasions, including on the albums, It Might as Well Be Swing (1964), Sinatra at the Sands (1966), and L.A. Is My Lady (1984). In his autobiography, Q: The Autobiography of Quincy Jones (2001), Jones described: "Frank was my style. He was hip, straight up and straight ahead, and, above all, a monster musician. I loved him, man, I admit it, I loved him as much as anyone else I ever worked with, because there was no gray to the man. It was either black or white: If he loved you, there was nothing in the world he wouldn’t do for you. If he didn’t like you, shame on your ass…Frank led me into a new world. A land of dreams, high living—anything you felt like doin’, whatever, with whomever, whenever you felt like doin’ it—and making the music we both loved."
Milla Jovovich (12/17/1975, Sagittarius Rabbit), Luc Besson (3/18/1959, Pisces Pig) : The actor and director were married from 1997 to 1999, and famously collaborated on the films, The Fifth Element (1997), and The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc (1999). Jovovich has described: "Luc had cast me as the perfect woman [in The Fifth Element]. That felt wonderful in itself, but then when I saw how he had filmed me in the movie, I knew he loved me as much as I loved him...The movie [Joan of Arc] did not break us up. Luc and my personal life never got entangled in our professional life. If we could make movies 365 days a year, we would still be together. Luc and I have this unique creative connection. We did get married. But we're not together anymore in that sort of particular context. We're best friends, apart from being together or not. He loves me, I love him."
Hailey Bieber (11/22/1996, Sagittarius Rat), Justin Bieber (3/1/1994, Pisces Dog) : The musician and model/media personality first dated in 2016, and after a hiatus reconciled and married during 2018/2019. In 2019, Justin Bieber explained: "Fighting is good. Doesn't the Bible talk about righteous anger? We don't want to lose each other. We don't want to say the wrong thing, and so we've been struggling with not expressing our emotions, which has been driving me absolutely crazy because I just need to express myself, and it's been really difficult to get her to say what she feels."
Paula Patton (12/5/1975, Sagittarius Rabbit), Robin Thicke (3/10/1977, Pisces Snake) : The actor and singer were married between 2005 and 2015, and have a son together. Thicke has described how their relationship has established an equilibrium after an at times acrimonious divorce: "There's so much emotion when you first break up, and there's so much stuff that spills over...But time heals those wounds, and she's an incredible person. Once you can put yourself second, your son rises to the top and you go, 'It's not about us anymore.' We're very lucky the way everything has worked out."
Felicity Huffman (12/9/1962, Sagittarius Tiger), William H. Macy (3/13/1950, Pisces Tiger) : The two actors married in 1997, after 15 years of dating on-and-off. They have two children. Describing her decision to marry, Huffman said: "I was finally smart enough to go, 'I'm going to marry this guy or really lose him for good.' … I knew I couldn’t say no. It was the work I had to do in order to bring myself to the marriage and then the work that I did to be able to trust another person and see what comes out of that comfort and that safety. I was able to blossom out of that."
Ray Romano (12/21/1957, Sagittarius Rooster), Anna Romano (2/24/1963, Pisces Rabbit) : The successful comedian and actor/cinematographer met while working together as bank tellers and married in 1987—before Ray Romano committed full-time to comedy in 1990. They have four children together. Speaking humorously about their marriage, Ray said in 1997, "I talk a lot about being married and being tired and not having sex. She’s fine with it. Whenever she has a problem, I tell her to go cry on a bag of money."
Anuel AA (11/26/1992, Sagittarius Monkey), Ozuna (3/13/1992, Pisces Monkey) : The two singer/rappers have collaborated multiple times, including the chart-topping songs, "China" (2019), "Baila Baila Baila Remix" (2019), and "Adicto" (2019), and the album, Los Dioses (2021). In a joint interview, Ozuna said: "Someone has to sing about the pretty things in life, but someone has to sing about the ugly things, too — what you live when you come from where we came from." Anuel AA explained: "I did music for the street, and Ozuna was commercial. But because we started working together so much, we evolved. Ozuna began to make music for the street, and the street responded. And I started to do more commercial music, and the people in that world responded. We’ve had ups and downs, but we’ve never turned our backs on each other."

Compatibility overview
Chinese astrology is well known for severe judgements about potentially unstable energy. The match between firsteast and secondeast is considered one of the most seriously challenging, with a significant likelihood of tension, miscommunication, and outright conflict. There are counterbalancing positives—indeed, these two are capable of prodigious achievements and attracting extraordinary attention. Actually enjoying their time together, however, could require plenty of delicacy and effort.

Diametrically opposed across the Chinese zodiac wheel are six Opposite combinations. One of these is the Monkey and Tiger. This energy is said to be eternally difficult to reconcile.
Not only do these signs have little in common, but they often take great pride in those aspects of their character that are most repellent to their opposing sign. Brilliantly skilled and energetic, the Monkey is a born agitator, a spirited mischief-maker whose brand of extreme creativity emphasizes irreverence, wicked humor, and versatility. The Tiger, on the other hand, is serious-minded and self-reliant, deeply committed to their personal ethics of service and humanitarianism, and resolved to achieve greatness for themselves and their communities. Clashes are almost inevitable.
The Monkey tends to find the Tiger hilariously pompous and overbearing, and will find it difficult to resist any opportunity to poke fun or cut them down to size. Meanwhile, the Tiger may see the Monkey as interminably exhausting, wasting their talents on pointless game-playing or selfish acts of rebellion. This essential incompatibility tends to bring out the weaknesses of both signs. The Monkey can be manipulative or rude, and when confronted may experience profound rejection, disappointment, or isolation. The Tiger, on the other hand, is likely to become increasingly infuriated and rash, often exposing themselves to risks and dangers they would never countenance in a less disturbed state of mind.
Remarkably, all this troubled energy can yield some quite astounding benefits. Just as the separate yin and yang elements combine to form the symbol of a perfect circle, the contrasting personalities of the Monkey and Tiger together form a complete spectrum of energy. The result can be mesmerizing for others, and may compel the two signs to stunning achievements, separately or together. Collaborations, competitions, even feuds between these signs may prove spellbinding for their community, indeed the world at large.
It may be difficult for the two signs themselves to feel unqualified enjoyment about the outcomes of their relationship, such is the threatening nature of their connection. Yet with more harmonious energy on the Western side, or concerted sympathy and understanding, it may be possible to harness the potency of this match at least for a time, and to reap the extraordinary, if demanding, gifts it offers.

*Click on the names to see both Western and Chinese zodiac matches for that pairing.
Bill Murray (9/21/1950, Virgo Tiger), Harold Ramis (11/21/1944, Scorpio Monkey) : The actor and actor/director collaborated on six classic films that have been called "extreme comedy", including Stripes, Ghostbusters, and Groundhog Day. After an altercation on the set of Groundhog Day, Landis and Murray did not speak for 21 years, until shortly before Landis' death Murray visited him in 2014. Landis described in 2004: "It’s a huge hole in my life, but there are so many pride issues about reaching out. [Murray] would give you his kidney if you needed it, but he wouldn’t necessarily return your phone calls."
Alec Guinness (4/2/1914, Aries Tiger), George Lucas (5/14/1944, Taurus Monkey) : The actor and director collaborated on the original Star Wars trilogy, with Guinness' Obi-Wan Kenobi becoming one of the most iconic characters in movie history. Guinness, however, was repeatedly critical of the project. While working on the first film, he described, "[N]ew rubbish dialogue reaches me every other day on wadges of pink paper—and none of it makes my character clear or even bearable." In his memoir, A Positively Final Appearance, Guinness wrote: "A refurbished Star Wars is on somewhere or everywhere. I have no intention of revisiting any galaxy. I shrivel inside each time it is mentioned...[A] sweet-faced boy of twelve told me proudly that he had seen Star Wars over a hundred times...Looking into the boy’s eyes I thought I detected little star-shells of madness beginning to form and I guessed that one day they would explode."
John Derek (8/12/1926, Leo Tiger), Bo Derek (11/20/1956, Scorpio Monkey) : The actor and actor/writer/director were married from 1976 to 1998. Their relationship began when John Derek was married to actor Linda Evans, and Bo Derek was 17 years old—they lived in Germany to avoid prosecution in the US. They collaborated on films including Tarzan, the Ape Man (1981), Bolero (1984) and Ghosts Can't Do It (1989), which received negative reviews—Bo Derek received a Golden Raspberry award for Worst Actress for each of these films. Bo Derek has described: "That still breaks my heart, being part of breaking up a marriage is a horrible thing and I still can’t believe I was a part of it. I’ve said it before, but I’ll never forgive myself...I look back at that time in my life as a terrible mistake...Now, when I look back at the photos of me, I was young — 17 is young...There was no Me Too-ing with John. But yeah, I’m very conflicted about it when I look back on being 17 with a 46-year-old man. As I said, I thought I knew everything. It felt right at the time. I was so in love with him and we ended up together for 25 years. I’m just so grateful he was a good person."
Oliver Lynn (8/27/1926, Virgo Tiger), Loretta Lynn (4/14/1932, Aries Monkey) : The talent agent and country singer were married for 48 years and had six children together—three before she was 17. Their marriage was famously turbulent, inspiring songs by Lynn including "Fist City" and "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)". Lynn's 2002 memoir, Still Woman Enough—referring to her husband by the nickname "Doolittle"—described: "Lots of women have asked me how in the world I stayed with a womanizin’ alcoholic who could get violent like he sometimes did...I got taught that there wasn't no such thing as divorce among decent folks...[but] there’s something else made me stick to Doo. He thought I was something special, more special than anybody else in the world, and never let me forget it."
Julius Erving (2/22/1950, Pisces Tiger), Larry Bird (12/7/1956, Sagittarius Monkey) : The two basketball legends shared a famous rivalry, including an on-court fight in 1984 that resulted in both players being ejected. They also appeared together in the iconic 1980s video game, One on One: Dr. J vs. Larry Bird. Erving was quoted in 2021: "We have some great wars over the years. We'll match up in the playoffs four times between 1980 and 1986, with the winner going on to the finals every season...[W]hen Larry says, as he has, that Michael Jordan was the best player he ever faced, I find it a little disrespectful. We beat them up pretty bad in some playoffs, and they got the better of us in others, but those are the toughest matchups for both of us. I don't think it's fair for Larry to say Michael is the best based on one great playoff game, the 63-point performance in Boston Garden. But then, Larry is always playing mind games, so he's probably still trying to psych out Magic [Johnson] and me."

Final Words
The Square combination of firstwest and secondwest may sometimes wonder if there is anything they agree about at all, yet this potent connection also offers rare opportunities for both signs to crystallize who they are and what they want out of life, and to cultivate greater self-awareness, patience and generosity in communicating. On the Chinese zodiac side, the energy between the firsteast and secondeast is similarly powerful and conflictive—though again there are countervailing positives, as few combinations can summon such a spectacular and impactful coalescence of energy. It may take a supreme effort to maintain this ferocious connection over the long term, but for as long as it endures, this is a recipe for a blazing, unforgettable relationship.
