Compatibility
Sagittarius Pig and Pisces Monkey

It may appear to be something of an energy minefield, but there is real potential here—provided the famously disagreeable combination of firstwest and secondwest fulfills its potential for life-changing personal growth, and the precarious firsteast and secondeast match is carefully controlled.

Western Zodiac

Sagittarius and Pisces

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 and Quincy Jones (click for attribution/s)

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."

Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber (click for attribution/s)

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."

William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman (click for attribution/s)

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."

Ozuna and Anuel AA (click for attribution/s)

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 can be unforgiving about matches considered to attract challenging energy. Unfortunately for the firsteast and the secondeast, these two have a difficult reputation for tension, miscommunication, and conflict. This energy will need to be carefully managed.

Among all the combinations in the Chinese zodiac, the six Adversary pairings along the fourth degree axis are the most notorious for unstable energy. The Monkey and Pig are one of these.

The Monkey's defining characteristics are their ingenuity and energy, where the Pig's heart is trusting and faithful. A meeting between these signs can bring forth tensions between openness and guile, dependability and inconstancy, or naivety and manipulation. The Pig may feel as if they are powerless to avoid being made fun of or tripped up. The Monkey may find it impossible not to seem like they are taking advantage of the Pig, even if quite unintentionally.

Undesirable traits may surface for both signs. The Monkey could be prone to deceitfulness, conceit, or power-plays. The Pig could seem disengaged, slothful, or overindulgent. The particular challenge of this Adversary energy is that it is more indirect than direct, so antagonism is more likely to fester than erupt. Dispute resolution can be especially challenging in this context, as both the Monkey and Pig may have the impression that whatever they say, however well-intended, just makes things worse. No astrological energy is insurmountable, of course. Collaborations that capture the contrasting instincts of the Monkey and Pig may be quite fascinating.

With self-awareness and acceptance, counterbalancing positive energy on the Western side, or effective compartmentalization, it may be possible to forge a fulfilling relationship in spite of the troubling undercurrents of this energy.

Edward James Olmos and Danny Trejo (click for attribution/s)

Danny Trejo (5/16/1944, Taurus Monkey), Edward James Olmos (2/24/1947, Pisces Pig) : Actor Trejo was at one time associated with actor/director Olmos' directorial debut, American Me, about the Mexican mafia. Trejo refused to be involved after he read the script and later asserted that the film caused the deaths of ten people: "I couldn't believe how casual [Olmos] was about details that were so critical...Olmos was like a kid playing with a grenade, thinking the whole time it was a sparkler."

Robert Vaughn (11/22/1932, Sagittarius Monkey), Matthew Vaughn (3/7/1971, Pisces Pig) : The English filmmaker known professionally as Matthew Vaughn grew up thinking that his father was the actor Robert Vaughn. In what a news report referred to as "hideous timing", Robert Vaughn revealed publicly that he was not Matthew's biological father shortly before Matthew's marriage to model/actress Claudia Schiffer in 2002. Matthew has since changed his official name to Matthew de Vere Drummond.

Michael Douglas and Val Kilmer (click for attribution/s)

Michael Douglas (9/25/1944, Libra Monkey), Val Kilmer (12/31/1959, Capricorn Pig) : The two actors were co-stars in The Ghost and the Darkness in 1996. In 2016, Douglas made public statements that Kilmer was battling cancer, which at the time Kilmer denied, saying, "Michael Douglas wrote me a nice note apologizing for suggesting to the press overseas, I wasn't doing too well and was grateful to hear I am doing well." Kilmer has since documented his experience of cancer in a memoir, I'm Your Huckleberry. He referred to Douglas' disclosure on Reddit in 2017, saying: "He was probably trying to help me 'cause press probably asked where I was these days, and I did have a healing of cancer."

Jennifer Aniston (2/11/1969, Aquarius Monkey), Tig Notaro (3/24/1971, Aries Pig) : The two actors starred together in First Ladies, a fictional movie about the first lesbian president of the United States. In an interview between them, Aniston said: "I think it’s incredible to be the first to play something of any kind, but especially a female president who happens to be gay. I think it’s long overdue." Notaro replied: "It is long overdue. People have been waiting a long time to see me and you in a presidential romantic comedy."

Barbara Hershey and Naveen Andrews (click for attribution/s)

Naveen Andrews (1/17/1969, Capricorn Monkey), Barbara Hershey (2/5/1948, Aquarius Pig) : The two actors were together for 12 years, in spite of Hershey being 21 years older. During 2005 they separated briefly, and Andrews fathered a child with another woman. Hershey described Andrews by saying, "Naveen is full of contradictions. He's truly well-read, yet he's very street. He kind of gives off this quality of danger at times, and yet he's very vulnerable. He's extremely serious and he's very funny."

Thom Yorke (10/7/1968, Libra Monkey), Jonny Greenwood (11/5/1971, Scorpio Pig) : The two musicians have been members of Radiohead since 1985 and also recently teamed up for the collaboration The Smile. Greenwood has described how he joined Radiohead: "The rest of the band were basically friends. So it was me following them around and begging them to let me be in their band for two or three years. And they finally let me in on the harmonica, actually, and then the keyboards, and finally the guitar."

Final Words

The Square energy between firstwest and secondwest is perhaps as contrary as any in the Western zodiac. However, while it may sometimes feel as if there is nothing these two cannot disagree about, their disputations can yield great positives, offering rare insight into their individual identities, and producing lifelong benefits. In this case, the greater challenge may be navigating the disturbing energy of the firsteast and secondeast, one of the Chinese zodiac’s most notorious combinations. Clear communication, independent roles in the relationship, and encouraging sensitivity wherever possible may be important for these two, if they are to maximize the available prospects for successful collaboration and affection.
