The six Opposition matches in the Western zodiac, where signs face each other directly across the zodiac wheel, are a truly unique phenomenon. Put simply, they are as combative as they are a blessing. As one of these special connections, Gemini and Sagittarius are apt to discover fast that they share little middle ground. The great traveller Gemini is at heart a collector of ideas, an inquisitive soul with a tendency to allow their eye to follow whatever concepts shine brightest in the present moment. Sagittarius, on the other hand, is deeply philosophical, concerned from their first breath with the most demanding, big-picture challenges they can find.

Conversation is thus likely to be vigorous and contested from the start. Gemini's tendency to tire of subjects and move on quickly will exasperate Sagittarius. Sagittarius' sustained, intense reflections will at times seem exhausting, even boring, to Gemini. The importance Gemini attaches to social interaction and discussion may be dismissed by Sagittarius as superficial, and little disturbs Gemini more than to be slighted or ignored. Neither of these signs has a reputation for being tactful when upset, either, so things could get pretty nasty. Much of this tension is due to these signs' shared Mutable energy, which is reflective and restless for new challenges. Disagreements lack a balancing influence to help them resolve and can seem interminable.

So, with all this discordant energy swirling around them, why is the Gemini/Sagittarius match so esteemed by Western astrologers? Well for one thing, when these two do see eye to eye, almost nothing can match the power of their shared conviction. Imagine a pair of voices transforming into a harmony far richer and clearer than either voice is alone. The elements here—Air for Gemini, Fire for Sagittarius—are highly complementary. In this combination, the signs' respective weaknesses are directly redressed. Gemini learns to apply their abundant skills with greater discipline and precision. Sagittarius becomes less insular and better equipped to share their prodigious insights with the world. Even the disagreements between these two can prove over time to be empowering and illuminating. As strange as it may seem at times, in the final analysis this is one of the most promising and dependable connections in the whole Western zodiac.

Lenny Kravitz (5/26/1964, Gemini Dragon), Zoë Kravitz (12/1/1988, Sagittarius Dragon) : The musician and actor/singer/model share one of the most recognizable celebrity father/daughter relationships in the world. Lenny Kravitz described the closeness between them in 2020: "My mother and my grandfather had a very close relationship—to the point where, as a teenager, I thought it was ridiculous...So when I see the relationship between Zoë and myself, I see the relationship between my mother and my grandfather. It makes me very happy that we've elevated to that level."

Demacio Castellon (6/6/1978, Gemini Horse), Nelly Furtado (12/2/1978, Sagittarius Horse) : The singer and sound engineer were married from 2008 to 2016. They collaborated on Furtado's multi-platinum album Loose (2006). Furtado described collaborating with Castellon in 2014: "It’s a healthy tension working together. It doesn’t always go smoothly, of course, and it can be really challenging when there are differences of opinion, which of course happens. But good things always tend to come out of it, and that’s the whole point."

Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson

Chris Evans (6/13/1981, Gemini Rooster), Scarlett Johansson (11/22/1984, Sagittarius Rat) : The two actors are close friends who have collaborated multiple times. Johansson has described: "I’ve been very close with Chris for such a long time. With the first time we worked together, we did a movie called The Perfect Score when I was 17. Chris I think was 18 or 19. And we were in Vancouver for, you know, whatever many months. And it felt like the closest thing I ever had to like a college experience because, you know, we were a group of us there, uh, just kind of staying in the same hotel and working and going out and, you know, it was, it was a lot of fun. I then had the opportunity to work with Chris again on The Nanny Diaries. And, I, you know, I think just Chris and I, we just laugh so much together. We… find a lot of humor in things that are ironic. And I, you know, we, we just, we just have a great friendship."

Gene Wilder (6/11/1933, Gemini Rooster), Richard Pryor (12/1/1940, Sagittarius Dragon) : The two actors appeared together four times, in the films Silver Streak (1976), Stir Crazy (1980), See No Evil, Hear No Evil (1989), and Another You (1991). Their on-screen chemistry and improvisation have become legendary. Wilder's memoir, Kiss Me Like Stranger (2005) described: "[Words kept coming out of my mouth in response to things that Richard was saying—things that weren’t in the script. Of course, Richard was used to working this way from all the jobs he had done in clubs and concerts. I don’t say that Richard’s way is without any thought—but his method always has an emotional, rather than intellectual base. In this regard, Richard was my teacher: no thinking—just immediate, instinctive response."

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie (6/4/1975, Gemini Rabbit), Brad Pitt (12/18/1963, Sagittarius Rabbit) : The two world-famous actors were together from 2005 to 2019 and shared six children (three by adoption). Although more recently Pitt and Jolie have been resolving financial and custody issues in the public eye, as "Brangelina" they were one of the highest-profile couples in the world. In 2007, Jolie described the early stages of their relationship by saying: "We spent a lot of time contemplating and thinking and talking about what we both wanted in life and realized that we wanted very, very similar things. And then we just continued to take time. We remained very, very good friends—with this realization—for a long time. And then life developed in a way where we could be together, where it felt like something we would do, we should do."

Paul Bettany (5/27/1971, Gemini Pig), Jennifer Connelly (12/12/1970, Sagittarius Dog) : The two actors met while working on the film A Beautiful Mind in 2001. They married in 2003 and have two children together, as well as Connelly's son from a previous marriage. Bettany has described: "Marriage and children changed my life. It really altered who I was and what I saw as my goals. [The moments I cherish most are] when I catch myself and realize the five of us are laughing together. And there is nobody on earth with whom I could be having a better time."

But given the right circumstances, this stellar combination can be as conducive to nourishment, stability, and warmth as any under the Sun.

Compatibility according to the Chinese zodiac depends first and foremost on the four Trine Families. As well as the Trine matches themselves, each sign has a cherished Soulmate match, comprised of a member of their kindred family. The Tiger (whose family consists of the Dog and Horse) and Pig (whose family is made up of the Rabbit and Sheep) share such this Soulmate energy.

The key to understanding Soulmate energy is that each sign has a particular sensitivity and admiration for the most authentic qualities of the other. Even across a crowded room, the Pig will often pick up on the majestic impulses of the Tiger, typically at once humanitarian and ambitious. The Tiger is equally apt to notice the Pig's infinite generosity and often underestimated, yet potentially prodigious, intellectual and physical capabilities. There is also a distinctly affirming and protective quality to this heartfelt match. The Tiger may feel as if it is their natural-born responsibility to shield the Pig from their tendencies towards naivety and over-indulgence. The Pig—who usually brings a beautifully selfless quality to most of their relationships—is often perfectly attuned to, and comfortable guarding against, the Tiger's predisposition towards risk-taking or over-committing themselves. Perhaps most important of all is the simple joy that these two can share, delighting in each other's company, and taking greater pleasure in the other's happiness than their own.

Of course, Soulmate energy is no free ride. The connection between the Pig and Tiger tends to demand commitment and respect. Even in professional settings, both parties could wind up bruised, even deeply hurt, if for whatever reason the other sign is unwilling or unable to match their admiration or devotion. Other relationships, with perhaps less abundant potential, may ultimately prove more resistant to competing priorities or disappointment.

However, if these two can carve out the space they need to work closely together, or to explore and care for each other as intimates, the sky really is the limit for this wonderful pairing.

Bernie Taupin and Elton John

Bernie Taupin (5/22/1950, Gemini Tiger), Elton John (3/25/1947, Aries Pig) : Acclaimed singer/songwriter Elton and lyricist Taupin have shared a 50-year songwriting collaboration that is one of the most successful partnerships of all time. Taupin described in 2019: "When we started it out it was really just me and him...I’d like to think I’ve been someone who can’t be ruffled by the insanity of [Elton's] career—and that I’ve always been there as the soft pillow to fall on in times of need...If we’ve weathered the storm now for over 50 years and have been able to maintain this extraordinary bond with each other, I don’t think there’s anything on god’s green earth that could separate us now."

Stephanie Allynne (9/19/1986, Virgo Tiger), Tig Notaro (3/24/1971, Aries Pig) : Comedian Notaro and actor Allynne married in 2015. They have two children, twins born in 2016. Allynne described in 2015: "I had not dated women before, and I think when we first started spending time with each other, I was so into Tig and I was falling in love with her and I didn't know how to identify it because I thought I was straight. I kept gravitating toward her and wanting to spend time with her, and then in the process of recognizing that in myself, I was like, 'Oh my god, I am fully in love with this person.' It kind of blew my mind in terms of sexual orientation, where you're like, 'I'm this way, and it's black-and-white.' I look back and go, 'God, I closed the door that I had no idea what was behind it.'"

Sofia Coppola and Bill Murray

Bill Murray (9/21/1950, Virgo Tiger), Sofia Coppola (5/14/1971, Taurus Pig) : The director and actor have collaborated multiple times, including the films, Lost in Translation (2003)—for which they both received Academy Award nominations—A Very Murray Christmas (2015), and On the Rocks (2020). Speaking about Lost in Translation, Coppola described: "It was about when you have a connection with someone. You never know. When you encounter someone you can instantly be hit by a look or a sense of humor. It was something that’s romantic without a sexual or real relationship. It does not mean he could actually be with you, but you could still have something of that bittersweet aspect. It’s the best way to connect with someone...[Murray's] so smart. He got what that character was looking for. We didn’t talk about it. He showed up and knew the tone of it. He found it as we went. He just got it. I feel a connection with him, in that he understands what I’m trying to do."

John Slattery (8/13/1962, Leo Tiger), Talia Balsam (3/5/1959, Pisces Pig) : The two actors have been married since 1998, and have one child. They played husband and wife, Roger and Mona Sterling, in the series, Mad Men (2007-2015), and also appeared together in the film, Return (2011). Slattery described in 2019, "I just found the right person, you know, I lucked out. I guess marry someone you like. We get along well, we always have, and I guess being in show business, some people say it’s difficult. I don’t know. We understand the rhythms of this life, which aren’t easy sometimes and there’s insecurity. You’re not sure where you’re going to be. So I don’t know. I got lucky."

Emma Thompson and Emilia Clarke

Emilia Clarke (10/23/1986, Scorpio Tiger), Emma Thompson (4/15/1959, Aries Pig) : The two actors formed a close friendship when they collaborated on the film, Last Christmas (2019), which was co-written by Thompson. Clarke described: "I remember just looking at [Thompson] and being like, 'Just let me know if I mess it up.' She was like, 'What!' Gets me in this huge hug, and is like, 'I’ll do nothing of the sort. You’re going to be fine.' That was the dynamic from there on out. She just supported us in [this] magical way. I hadn’t met her before [the film] but I had been pretty obsessed with her my whole life. When I met her, she exceeded all of my expectations...I’ve had the good fortune of going to visit her and [her husband] Greg’s house in Scotland. They love a good sauna. You jump into their stream, you get freezing cold, and then you jump back in the sauna, and then get back in the stream. It was me, Emma, and Greg in the nude in a sauna, jumping back and forth and shrieking…it was a dream."

Jeff Garlin (6/5/1962, Gemini Tiger), Larry David (7/2/1947, Cancer Pig) : The two comedians have famously become close friends through their collaboration on the show, Curb Your Enthusiasm (2000-present). Garlin described in 2011: "We discovered our connection during the audition process for the initial Curb special, and it felt instantly like we'd worked together our entire lives. I don't know why we have this relationship, but we do. Maybe we were slaves together in an earlier life. And in Curb Your Enthusiasm we were doing what we did and not having a clue whether people would get it or like it. The fact that it's gone on to be a big success, I am shocked. Because it truly was something that was organic, that we did to make ourselves laugh."

Tony Bennett and Amy Winehouse

Tony Bennett (8/3/1926, Leo Tiger), Amy Winehouse (9/14/1983, Virgo Pig) : The two singers collaborated on the song, "Body and Soul", from Bennett's Grammy-winning album, Duets II (2011). The song was Bennett's first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for 45 years, and proved to be Winehouse's last recording. In Bennett's autobiography, Just Getting Started (2016), he wrote: "Should I have told [Winehouse] that I'd contended a little bit with [drugs and alcohol] myself and knew how you can fall into a bad cycle, but I also knew that you could bring yourself back? Would it have made a difference if someone she considered an idol had said to her something like, 'You're my idol. You are a once-in-a-lifetime talent. Please don't take that from the world.' [Maybe I should have said: ] Walk away from it all, if you like. Just live. Please."

Final Words

The revered Opposition energy between Western signs firstwest and secondwest draws strength not only from the intense synergies they share, but from their equally striking differences.
