Western and Chinese astrology may seem to have little in common, but one strong commonality is the significance both give to Trine matches, where signs are four steps apart. Perhaps the most unexpected of these extremely harmonious combinations is Pisces and Scorpio.
At first sight, Pisces' sensitive, dreamy nature can seem a world away from Scorpio's brand of high-impact intensity. Yet this apparent divide simply represents the essential variability of these signs' shared element, Water. In fact, receptivity to change, and an appreciation of the fluidity of life with all its extremes of beauty and turmoil, is what unites these two passionate and emotionally complex signs. For a sign that is sometimes easily rattled or upset, Pisces can feel surprisingly comfortable with, indeed inspired by, Scorpio's charismatic drive. Scorpio, in turn, is likely to revel in Pisces' accepting and flexible attitude.
Even without expressing themselves in words, these two often sense they share a deep affinity about what is most important in life. All forms of creativity, idealism, and devotion are thus encouraged by this combination. The respective modalities progress naturally from Scorpio's achievement-oriented Fixed energy to Pisces' more contemplative Mutable energy. Combined projects therefore have ample depth and resolve to see them accomplished, original, and successful. Traits that can be difficult elsewhere can also be naturally redressed. Pisces may find themselves less hesitant or prone to time-wasting, Scorpio less overbearing or unforgiving. Both signs can shield each other from the kinds of escapism that their sensitive natures make them susceptible to in other contexts.
All in all, this match attracts truly wonderful energy, and in any context may prove a lifelong source of belonging, motivation, and deep affection.

Tim Cook (11/1/1960, Scorpio Rat), Steve Jobs (2/24/1955, Pisces Sheep) : The co-founder of Apple and his successor as CEO worked together for 13 years before Jobs appointed Cook to replace him. Cook has described: "I have never tried to fill his shoes, not on day one and not in year 10. Because I've always thought they were not fillable by anyone...When he told me he wanted me to be CEO, he said that he never wanted me to ask what he would do. He wanted a professional transition, and he wanted the company to go on."
Miranda Lambert (11/10/1983, Scorpio Pig), Carrie Underwood (3/10/1983, Pisces Pig) : The country music superstars collaborated on the duet "Somethin' Bad" in 2014 and share a supportive friendship. Backing Underwood for Entertainer of the Year at the 2019 CMA Awards, Lambert wrote on Instagram: "[Underwood] blows me away every time I hear her sing. She never wavers in who she is or what she stands for. She has stayed true & pushed herself to be better. If you have never heard her sing 'How Great Thou Art' do yourself a favor and listen. I have her back in this picture and I’ll always have her back. So for the sake of sequins, spanx and spray tans, take it home! You Carrie the torch!"
Ryan Gosling (11/12/1980, Scorpio Monkey), Eva Mendes (3/5/1974, Pisces Tiger) : The two actors have been together since 2011 and have two children. Accepting his 2017 Golden Globe award (for La La Land), Gosling said: "While I was singing and dancing and playing piano and having one of the best experiences I’ve ever had on a film, my lady was raising our daughter, pregnant with our second, and trying to help her brother fight his battle with cancer. So sweetheart, thank you...And I’d like to dedicate this to the memory of her brother, Juan Carlos Mendez."
Danny DeVito (11/17/1944, Scorpio Monkey), Lucy DeVito (3/11/1983, Pisces Pig) : The father and daughter actors recently collaborated on the animated show Little Demon. Lucy DeVito described: "What was so great about doing this and actually playing father and daughter, is that the relationship is already so cooked between us...there is something really cool just as an actor being thrown into a scenario where so many of those gaps are filled from actual real life...You know, we can finish each other’s sentences and we can read each other very well and get to these heightened emotional points in the way that only family members can. And so it was really cool to be able to just bring that into the work."
Goldie Hawn (11/21/1945, Scorpio Rooster), Kurt Russell (3/17/1951, Pisces Rabbit) : The two legendary actors have been a couple since 1983. They have a child together and raised Hawn's children from a previous relationship, the actors Kate and Oliver Hudson. Hawn has described: "I think the secret is to know when to depend on somebody and when not to. It’s important that you are able to hold up your side of the house...The other part is to stay as sexy as you can and make sure you focus on all of those aspects of a healthy relationship — and sexuality is definitely one of them."
Jimmy Kimmel (11/13/1967, Scorpio Sheep), Molly McNearney (3/5/1978, Pisces Horse) : The star and head co-writer of Jimmy Kimmel Live! have been married since 2013 and have two children together. They worked together from 2003 before the relationship became romantic around 2010. McNearney has described: "All the writers would socialize after the show, and we would just hang out more and more. We really liked each other as friends, and then it just kind of turned. He cooked for me, and that was it. It sealed the deal."
Joni Mitchell (11/7/1943, Scorpio Sheep), James Taylor (3/12/1948, Pisces Rat) : The two singers were a couple for a time in the 1970s, and Taylor contributed to Mitchell's masterpiece album, Blue. Taylor has described: "It was a calm, peaceful, amazing, creative time. She quit smoking and her voice was excellent. She was at the height of her powers. It felt natural and easy for me to play on the album. There were very few people in the sessions. Blue’s brilliance lies in its minimalism. It thrives on her voice, melody and personality. It’s pure Joni...She is totally real and self-invented and it’s one of the best things in my life that I’ve known her."

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.

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 (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."
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
firstwest and secondwest share some of the most precious energy in the Western zodiac, a superb Trine connection, which heavily favors an instinctual and pleasure-filled bond. The Chinese zodiac side, on the other hand, represents a far more dangerous mix here, as the firsteast and secondeast are a notorious mismatch, who often encounter problems understanding or appreciating one another. While these conflicting energies may inevitably cause problems along the way, ultimately the strength of the Western Trine may enable these two to persevere in achieving mutual success and reassurance.
