Western Zodiac
Pisces and Capricorn
Compatibility overview
This calm and supportive energy is one of the treasures of the Western zodiac. The combination of firstwest and secondwest has an understated quality, usually more in the manner of a trusted confidant than Romeo and Juliet. However, the energy these two share has boundless potential for encouragement, kindness, and reliability.

An interval of two steps around the Western zodiac wheel, as there is between Capricorn and Pisces, forms a Sextile connection. This famously relaxed, nurturing energy means these two typically enjoy a shared freedom from tension or constraints from the very beginning.
Capricorn's patient commitment to achieve mastery in their chosen field holds a visceral appeal for the wise, sensitive Pisces. Capricorn's intuition for power means they have a rare appreciation for the diplomatic and caring side of Pisces' nature, as well as the depth of insight and hard work Pisces can provide when they are comfortable. The elements here—Earth for Capricorn and Water for Pisces—are reliably harmonious, lending themselves to natural dependence and co-existence. The modalities are equally compatible. Capricorn is a Cardinal sign, an always-beginning energy synonymous with ideas and projects at their most pure and formative, while Pisces' Mutable nature brings a reflective emphasis on consequences, effects, and implications. Hence these two are extremely effective collaborators. In an easygoing atmosphere balancing good humor with comfortable silences, Capricorn contributes perseverance and astuteness, while Pisces brings perception and empathy.
Predictably for a Sextile coupling, both these signs usually retain a strong sense of their individual identity. This is often a relationship that these two can return to as regularly or infrequently as they choose, safe in the knowledge that the warmth and encouragement they share will be just as dependable as ever. In fact, if there is a qualification for Capricorn and Pisces, it is that the energy between them can be too relaxed at times. Affection here is more gently protective than intense or passionate, meaning this connection can sometimes be taken for granted or not prioritized. Capricorn and Pisces may find the very lack of pressure between them causes them to take a back seat in each other's lives, even when that might not be the path most conducive to their shared happiness.
On the plus side, the natural flexibility of this energy means it is capable of narrowing or widening as circumstances require. In whatever context, and however much or little time these two signs spend together, there is every chance the dependable qualities of reassurance, motivation, and tenderness will enrich both of their lives.

Cheryl Howard (12/23/1953, Capricorn Snake), Ron Howard (3/1/1954, Pisces Horse) : The actor/director and actor met in high school. They have been married since 1975 and have four children. Howard has described: "People say, ‘How’d you do it?’ There’s no technique. There’s no tactic other than communication is really important. You have to learn to communicate and have difficult conversations in constructive ways. Beyond that, there’s an element of luck because people either grow together or they don’t and I don’t think you can force that."
Rod Stewart (1/10/1945, Capricorn Monkey), Penny Lancaster (3/15/1971, Pisces Pig) : The singer and model have been married for 14 years and have two children. Stewart has described: "Intimacy is the most important thing in a relationship. Don't take it for granted. I'm not talking about sex, but a kiss and a cuddle and a hold. Penny and I do that every morning. We hug each other — sometimes in bed, sometimes out of bed, all throughout the day. It's a wonderful relationship."
Cary Grant (1/18/1904, Capricorn Rabbit), Jennifer Grant (2/26/1966, Pisces Horse) : The two actors were father and daughter. At one time one of the most famous actors in the world, Cary Grant famously retired from acting in 1966, after Jennifer was born, to devote himself to her upbringing. In her book, Good Stuff: A Reminiscence of My Father, Cary Grant, Jennifer describes: "To me, [my father] was like a marvelous painting. All the art historians wish to break down the motives, and the scheme, and so on. I would rather know, as I do, his essence. I believe that at the heart of a person lies passion. For the last twenty years of his life, I was given the extraordinary privilege to experience the full, vital passion of his heart. Dad used the expression 'good stuff' to declare happiness or, as one of his friends put it, he said it when pleased with the nature of things. He said it a lot. He had a happy way of life. His life was 'good stuff.'"
Mary Tyler Moore (12/29/1936, Capricorn Rat), Bernadette Peters (2/28/1948, Pisces Rat) : The two actors were close friends before Moore's death in 2017. Together, they co-founded Broadway Barks, an annual dog and cat adoption event benefiting New York City animal shelters and adoption agencies. About vacationing together, Peters described: "Mary was always the planner. Mary was always the one who would say, ‘We wanna go to the Bahamas, and we're gonna swim with the dolphins.' She was the one that always came up with the ideas and the adventures and things to do. Life was precious to her, and she knew if she kept moving that was healthy for her."
Lewis Hamilton (1/7/1985, Capricorn Rat), Niki Lauda (2/22/1949, Pisces Ox) : The two Formula One world champions became close friends, after Lauda was instrumental in luring Hamilton to drive for his Mercedes team in 2013. Speaking after Lauda's death in 2019, Hamilton described: "I just so miss talking to the dude, I miss his texts, the videos we shared. I still have them. I’ve kept them and still revisit them. Without his support I probably wouldn’t have made the switch to come to this team...That’s what he was best at – support and being real...To have someone talking to the [Formula One] board who understands and empathises how difficult it is to deliver weekend after weekend, when you make a mistake. That is where he was such a great pillar for me...When he took his hat off [in salute to an achievement in the car] or he goes like this [the finger/thumb gesture indicating something very close to a skirting disaster limit], you knew it was real, that you’d really done something. I miss him a lot."
James Earl Jones (1/17/1931, Capricorn Horse), Cecilia Hart (2/19/1948, Pisces Rat) : The two actors were married from 1982 until Hart's death in 2016, and had one child together. Receiving a Lifetime Achievement award at the Tony awards in 2017, Jones said: "I want to thank my wife Ceci for being such a wonderful companion in my life and in my work. And for being the great coproducer of our son Flynn and for being so dazzling on the red carpet."
David Bowie (1/8/1947, Capricorn Dog), Lou Reed (3/2/1942, Pisces Horse) : The two legendary musicians were friends who collaborated multiple times, including when Bowie co-produced (with Mick Ronson) Reed's landmark album, Transformer. Reed described in 2004: "How can I remember my first impression of David Bowie? That’s really… [smiles] Okay… I mean, David and I are friends to this day. He’s very smart and very, very talented, and I met him in New York and thought, ‘This guy would be a fun guy to work with; we could really bring something to the dance.’"

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."
