The Sextile combination in Western astrology, where signs are two steps apart, is well-known for its easygoing, congenial quality. Truth be told, this breezy energy can be quite unexpected for the pairing of Scorpio and Capricorn.
These are two seriously capable signs, who often wind up in leadership or otherwise prominent roles in society. These two usually find much to admire in the other. Scorpio, often thought to be the most intensely passionate and driven sign of the Western zodiac, is likely to pick up on and admire Capricorn's skills at subtly exercising power and controlling outcomes. Not for nothing does Capricorn have a reputation as the puppet-master of the zodiac! Capricorn, meanwhile, with their uncanny knack for appraising talent and quiet manoeuvring, will spot the potential of the typically gifted Scorpio a mile away.
What is more likely to catch these two off guard, however, is how easy and enjoyable it is for them to communicate. The respective elements here—Water for Scorpio, Earth for Capricorn—are naturally very compatible. So too are the modalities. Scorpio's Fixed energy, with its emphasis on productivity and achievement, forms a perfect complement to the more fluid and experimental Cardinal qualities of Capricorn. As a result, the atmosphere between these two signs is often lighthearted from the moment they meet, with each sensing that there is little to be demanded of or forced upon them. In fact, if there is a problem for this pair, it is the very lack of urgency that makes this combination enjoyable.
There may be a temptation to take this dynamic for granted, to think that it is somehow too easy to be taken seriously. But to overlook the potential of this relationship could be a mistake—few matches are as pleasurable and dependable in the long term as this one.

Barry Jenkins (11/19/1979, Scorpio Sheep), Regina King (1/15/1971, Capricorn Dog) : The actor and director collaborated in the prize-winning film, If Beale Street Could Talk (2018). King's acclaimed performance won her an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. She described: "We need this movie right now. We need this hug. We need to understand love on a universal level. Barry Jenkins can make the global feel personal. He’s a master at that, and he doesn’t even have to try. It just happens to be who he is."
Heather Matarazzo (11/10/1982, Scorpio Dog), Heather Turman (12/31/1986, Capricorn Tiger) : The actor and comedian/film producer married in 2018. Truman posted to Instagram about their engagement: "We kept it to ourselves for a few days, but it’s official! I’m engaged to the absolute, unequivocal love of my life. I never knew I could find someone that matches me the way she does, in all ways… always. If Hollywood is my pyramids, then she is my Fatima. This is it. #whenyouknowyouknow."
Peter Jackson (10/31/1961, Scorpio Ox), Fran Walsh (1/10/1959, Capricorn Dog) : The director and screenwriter have been life partners since 1987. They have co-written all of Jackson's films since 1989, including the Lord of the Rings (2001-2003) and Hobbit (2012-2014) trilogies. Walsh famously avoids the limelight, and on one occasion remarked drily about Jackson: "He’s not my husband. He’s never asked me, and if he did, I probably wouldn’t say yes."
Mike Nichols (11/6/1931, Scorpio Sheep), Diane Sawyer (12/22/1945, Capricorn Rooster) : The journalist and director/producer/actor were married from 1988 until Nichols died in 2014. Nichols described in 2012: "I thought we were the two greatest bulls–ters. I thought we were brilliant but totally full of s–t, so smart and such good talkers and so modest, so wise. It took me a long time to realize that, in the first place, she wasn’t bulls–tting, she was real, and then — to my astonishment — that I was, too. And it was because of her. The way she saw me let me finally see that I was real, too."
Travis Barker (11/14/1975, Scorpio Rabbit), Yelawolf (12/30/1979, Capricorn Sheep) : The musician and rapper are friends who collaborated on the EP, Psycho White (2012), and later the song, "Out of Control" (2016). Barker described in 2012: "We clicked from the time we first met. We just had a bunch in common, whether it be cars or skateboarding or tattoos...We just started cranking out songs in the studio." Yelawolf said: "We’re almost the same person. [Travis] sees me as I do him: as this weird parody of cultures. I represented something in the South and the East that he does from the West Coast."
Ethan Hawke (11/6/1970, Scorpio Dog), Denzel Washington (12/28/1954, Capricorn Horse) : The two actors collaborated in Training Day (2001), for which both received Oscar nominations and Washington the Best Actor award, and The Magnificent Seven (2016). In a joint interview, Hawke described: "It was fascinating to see [Washington] work at that high a level, in a studio movie. You can see people working like that, in church basements, with confidence and creativity. But when big money comes around and pressure comes around, people shrink. It was an exciting moment to see that that didn’t have to be."

The Chinese zodiac comprises fundamentally four Trine Families. One of these families includes the Dog and Horse (along with their compadre the Tiger). These signs are bound together by a spirit of humanitarian ambition—an aspiration to achieve greatness, while remaining faithful to ideals of justice, equality, and fairness.
Chances are these two will recognize each other as kindred souls before they have said very much at all. The Horse tends to admire instinctively the plainspokenness that lies at the heart of the Dog's character, and will usually sympathize wholeheartedly with the underdog causes that the Dog lives to defend. The Dog, on the other hand, finds the Horse's brand of upright independence at once inspiring and calming. In other company, these two can find their directness comes across as brusque or tactless. What a merciful relief it can be for each of them, to find an ally who is just as impatient with seemingly pointless niceties and posturing!
There is a strong entrepreneurial aspect to this energy, and Dog and Horse combinations can be found in professional contexts from business to sports to the arts. Among the many synergies between these signs, however, perhaps the single most important is their commitment to close relationships, the sharing of alliances through thick and thin. Even as distant acquaintances, the Horse and Dog will likely respect each other's commitment to faithfulness and devotion.
If the Dog and Horse develop into intimates with one another, don't be surprised if the bond between them proves unbreakable.

Jon Favreau (10/19/1966, Libra Horse), Vince Vaughn (3/28/1970, Aries Dog) : The actor/film-maker are close friends who have shared many notable collaborations, including Swingers (1996), Made (2001), Couples Retreat (2009), and The Break-Up (2006). Swingers, which proved the catalyst for both actors' successes, was written by Favreau as an exaggerated version of the pair's life as best friends and struggling actors. In an interview with one another about The Break-Up, Favreau described: "You dug my sense of humor, and I knew you'd be open to things, you'd be open to them, and I knew that if we were going to improvise together that, you know, it's like two musicians who have played a lot together, our rhythms sort of compliment each other, and so, I didn't have any of the responsibilities to worry about like in Swingers or Made where I was trying to keep a lot of stuff in my head I was able to just come in, and have a lot of fun."
George W. Bush (7/6/1946, Cancer Dog), Condoleezza Rice (11/14/1954, Scorpio Horse) : The former US President appointed diplomat/political scientist Rice as National Security Advisor (2001-2005) and Secretary of State (2005-2009). After the 2020 election, Bush disclosed that he had written in Rice's name on his ballot paper.
Nelson Mandela (7/18/1918, Cancer Horse), Bill Clinton (8/19/1946, Leo Dog) : The anti-apartheid activist and politician developed a close friendship during their respective presidencies of South Africa and the US. Professor Haroon Bhorat of the University of Cape Town has described: "There’s a very, very rich history and bridge that exists between South Africa and the US. If you wanted the jewel in the crown, so to speak, that would be the Mandela-Clinton relationship."
Laura Silverman (6/10/1966, Gemini Horse), Sarah Silverman (12/1/1970, Sagittarius Dog) : The two sisters are actors who have collaborated extensively. On The Sarah Silverman Program (2007-2010), real-life older sister Laura played Sarah's younger sibling. Laura described in 2007, "[Working together is] totally fun, we get along really well in general and love to make each other laugh so it's perfect, and we're kind of a huggy family so it's nice to have each other there for support, too. We're also so different in our acting styles, and big fans of each other's work, so there's no competition or anything."
Margot Robbie (7/2/1990, Cancer Horse), Saoirse Ronan (4/12/1994, Aries Dog) : The two actors became friends when the co-starred in the film, Mary Queen of Scots (2018). In a joint interview, Ronan was asked how she reacted when the two were cast together: "I was so excited, because — and I’ve told you this before, anyway — Margot and I met about a year and a half before we did the film together, and I always thought you were brilliant and fearless as an actor. Every single role you take on is completely different, and you can tell you just go for it — like we were saying, you’re like, 'Well, I’m in it now, so I’m just going to go for it.' But being able to share this with someone who is not only really, really nice, but is really, really normal like you are is really amazing. So well done."
Eboni Nichols (5/12/1978, Taurus Horse), Queen Latifah (3/18/1970, Pisces Dog) : While actor/musician Latifah is famously shy about her private life, it is widely believed that she is in a relationship with Nichols and that the two adopted a son, Rebel, together in 2019. At the BET Awards in 2021, she closed her acceptance speech: "Eboni, my love. Rebel, my love. Happy Pride!"
