Scorpio and Scorpio

Compatibility overview

A match between Scorpios brings together two of the most intense signs in the Western zodiac. To be sure, in some respects the result may be overwhelming, for all own-sign combinations have too much energy in some areas and a lack of balance in others. Yet these two also offer each other a safe space, a freedom to explore each other's extraordinary emotional depth and power, which can yield a deeply meaningful and lasting relationship.

By definition, a match between two natives of the same Western zodiac sign involves a shared element. For two Scorpios, that element is Water, the most emotionally-attuned and sensitive element of all. Hence, while there could be some initial provocation given Scorpio's well-earned reputation for larger-than-life provocations, chances are that before long these two will recognize each other as kindred spirits.

The bedrock of shared values between two Scorpios is typically based on acknowledging the full spectrum of existence—the highest of highs, the lowest of lows. Creative instincts tend to be especially strong for this sign, and two Scorpios together will instinctively appreciate the vital importance of expressing their individuality and power through creative means. Expect every combined project to capture the same devotion as if they knew it were their last. Also, there is probably no other sign as consistently hilarious as Scorpio. This sign typically appreciates from birth that the absurd tragedies and wonders of existence are rarely so aptly conveyed as with pure comedy. Thus two Scorpios together tend not only to offer each other precious inspiration and encouragement, but to contribute uproarious laughter into the bargain.

Inevitably, own-sign combinations must at some point deal with having a superabundance of certain energy, and a lack of contrary balancing forces. At times in their lives, Scorpios will almost inevitably find themselves plumbing heart-rending depths of despair. Often, one Scorpio will provide invaluable solace to another, but if their dark periods intersect, it may be a struggle to reach out and help the other. There is also the possibility of competition or jealousy. The Fixed modality of Scorpio emphasizes realization, the translation of their sixth sense for abstract emotive concepts into tangible expression. Should the visions of two Scorpios diverge, power struggles would not be unexpected, and both sides will resist backing down with potentially extraordinary conviction.

On balance, given the whirlwind-like qualities of this match, it may be a challenge to cherish the supportive aspects while living too much in each other's pockets. Stability in the form of sporadic bursts of rewarding intensity may suit many Scorpio/Scorpio pairings best. But Scorpio is nothing if not emotionally sophisticated, and whether in small or large doses, this can be a wonderfully inspiring and transformational relationship.

Whoopi Goldberg (11/13/1955, Scorpio Sheep), Mike Nichols (11/6/1931, Scorpio Sheep) : Actor/comedian/media personality Goldberg and actor/comedian/film-maker Nichols shared a longstanding and supportive friendship. Nichols was credited with discovering Goldberg, after he helped to produce her one woman show (originally titled, "The Spook Show") on Broadway in the mid-1980s. Nichols described to Goldberg in a 2012 interview: "I wanted to meet you and I went backstage and, this had never happened to me before or since, you opened the door and I burst into tears and we fell into each other's arms." Goldberg said, "I can come to you and say, ‘What the hell is going on? Why is my career in such a weird place?’ And you’ll say, ‘Because that’s what our business is. You will always have weird places.’ And every time I talk to you about it, I get it. I get it more. … It calms me down."

Leonardo DiCaprio (11/11/1974, Scorpio Tiger), Martin Scorsese (11/17/1942, Scorpio Horse) : Director Scorsese and actor DiCaprio have shared one of the most celebrated collaborations in movie history. Their five feature films together—Gangs of New York (2002), The Aviator (2004), The Departed (2006), Shutter Island (2010), and The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)—have been nominated for a combined 31 Academy Awards, and have grossed over US$1.3 billion. In 2014, DiCaprio described: "It’s interesting, because I have been doing this since I was 13. I am almost about to turn 40, and I am looking back at some of the stuff I’ve gotten to do, and at the center of it is this amazing accidental collaboration that I’ve gotten to have with Marty...It’s hard for me to quite articulate or put into words everything that I’ve learned from him. These key moments, they’re hard to even reflect on because you sort of have to take a breather and look back and realize how much you’ve actually learned. I’ve grown tremendously as an actor just to be in those moments with him, where he’s giving me the right guidance."

Nick Lachey and Vanessa Lachey

Nick Lachey (11/9/1973, Scorpio Ox), Vanessa Lachey (11/9/1980, Scorpio Monkey) : Actor/model/media personality Vanessa Lachey (née Minnillo) and singer/media personality Nick Lachey have been together since 2006. They married in 2011, and have three children. Describing a short break-up in 2009, Vanessa said in 2022, "We dated for five years. So I finally said, 'What are we doing?' I have now moved in with him, I renovated his entire bachelor pad, there was a bar in the pool. I'm like, 'Whatever you want!' Now I'm like, 'Okay, well, I want to put kids in the pool.'" Vanessa posted to Nick in 2022: "Happy Father’s Day to our GOAT! You are the only one who can constantly make all our babies laugh uncontrollably! You have literally sacrificed everything to be there 100% for them so I can follow a dream (you didn’t even blink an eye). AND you still look hot as hell & dress like a college kid! Man, I’m a lucky Mama! We Love YOU!"

Stacey Weitzman (11/15/1947, Scorpio Pig), Henry Winkler (10/30/1945, Scorpio Rooster) : The two actors have been married since 1978. They have two children, and Winkler is stepfather to Weitzman's child from a previous marriage. Weitzman described in 2019: "The most wonderful thing is to really be able to grow with someone. We’re not the same people we are when we got married. But certain of the tenets you hold dear are still intact...It does take work. There are glitches in the road, and you get a little off kilter, but if you have the ability and the stick-to-itiveness based on love, then your friendship and your relationship only gets better."

Sam Rockwell and Leslie Bibb

They worked together in the films, Iron Man 2 (2010), and Don Verdean (2015).

Pelé wrote after Maradona died in 2020: "Many people loved to compare us all their lives. You were a genius that enchanted the world. A magician with the ball at his feet. A true legend. But above all that, for me, you will always be a great friend, with an even bigger heart. Today, I know that the world would be much better if we could compare each other less and start admiring each other more. So, I want to say that you are incomparable...I love you, Diego. My great friend, thank you very much for our entire journey. One day, in heaven, we will play together on the same team. And it will be the first time that I raise my fist in the air in triumph on the pitch without celebrating a goal. It will be because I can finally embrace you again."

The Rabbit and Sheep are one of the most magical pairings in the Chinese zodiac.

A central element of Chinese astrology is the four Trine Families into which the twelve signs divide. One of these consists of the Rabbit and Sheep (along with their most generous ally, the Pig). These signs are bound together by a mutual love of aesthetic beauty, relaxation, and empathy. In the company of some other signs, they can both be quite easily overwhelmed, given their profound sensitivity to perceived ugliness, noise or aggression. But together, they will tend to lose themselves quickly in a wonderful atmosphere of tranquility.

The Sheep will likely be fascinated by the Rabbit's abundant skills and deeply romantic sensibility. Instinctively secure in the Rabbit's company, the Sheep is apt to unleash a true charm offensive, delighting and reassuring the gentle Rabbit. Perhaps no other sign is as capable of expressing pure hypnotic joy as the Sheep when they are at ease! While early exchanges are likely to have a flirtatious quality even in entirely chaste surroundings, the closer these two become, the more likely they are to realise the powerful creative potential of their shared energy. For these two signs are artists in their marrow.

As a pair, the Rabbit and Sheep are capable of expressing their shared aesthetic with extraordinary elegance and refinement, whether in professional projects or in building a home and life together. Given the freedom and peace they need, the results will almost certainly be breathtaking.

They were known for eccentric displays of affection, which included wearing vials of each other's blood, and Jolie gifting Thornton a pair of matching burial plots. In the foreword to Thornton's book, The Billy Bob Tapes: A Cave Full of Ghosts (2012), Jolie wrote: "Through the years I’ve known Billy I’ve learned that not only was he as interesting, as truly original, as had been told to me, but that he was also so much more…Some people walk through life able to quiet the voices in their heads. He can’t. And I, and everyone else who knows him well, we love him for it. I know one thing: the world would certainly be a hell of a lot more dull if that man weren’t in it."

Michael Jordan (2/17/1963, Aquarius Rabbit), Yvette Prieto (3/26/1979, Aries Sheep) : The legenday basketballer and model married in 2013. They have two children, twins born in 2014. Jordan has described: "I can count on one hand the girls I have dated seriously. Yvette is the third and … the third time’s the charm. She’s a fantastic girl and I like her. Aside from her beauty, which is obvious, she is loving, simple and very good person."

In accepting her Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 1996, for Mighty Aphrodite (1995), Mira said, "When you give me this award you honor my father Paul Sorvino who taught me everything I know about acting." Writing about her speech later, Mira described: "My love for my father has only continued to grow since this moment. All the love in my heart! He is the most loving father, the most brilliant actor, the most beautiful operatic tenor, the most talented visual artist—the wisest and most human advice giver, & best Grandpa ever!!"

Dermot Mulroney (10/31/1963, Scorpio Rabbit), Julia Roberts (10/28/1967, Scorpio Sheep) : The two actors are good friends, who worked together on the films, My Best Friend's Wedding (1997), and August: Osage County (2013). Mulroney described in 2016: "It doesn't always happen with every person that you love and work with -- you kind of go your separate ways. But we, against all odds, managed to maintain a great close friendship...[Roberts is] just one of the most genuine friends I have. She's a really generous person—great sense of humor and really caring. Great family, and she's been a good friend and role model for me."

Steve Jobs and Laurene Powell Jobs

Laurene Powell Jobs (11/6/1963, Scorpio Rabbit), Steve Jobs (2/24/1955, Pisces Sheep) : The two entrepreneurs were married from 1991 until Jobs' death in 2011. They had three children. Laurene Jobs described in 2020: "I can talk about him for hours. I met Steve when I was 25 years old. And from the day we met, we were together for 22 years. So he influenced everything. I grew up with him. Just like anyone that you share your life with, there’s an exchange and a robustness. We had a very, very beautiful and rich connection. We talked a lot, for hours every day. To pull out any one way in which he affected my worldview is impossible, because I have integrated so much of him."

Sidney Poitier (2/20/1927, Pisces Rabbit), Joanna Shimkus (10/30/1943, Scorpio Sheep) : The two actors were married from 1976 until Poitier died in 2022. Shimkus described in 1998: "I guess we were just destined to be [together]...It could be that we lead a very quiet life. It could be that it's just the way it is, I don't really know. But I never really did see him as a Black man. I mean, I know he is Black, but I just saw him as a man, and he was just a wonderful person. An amazing human being...The thing that attracted me to him the most, I think, is his integrity and his honesty [and] his loyalty to his family. He's just an amazing human being. He's just a good, good, good person. And he's cute too, yes! And he was especially gorgeous then. He still is too now, but he was very, very attractive then."

Mac Miller and Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar (6/17/1987, Gemini Rabbit), Mac Miller (1/19/1992, Capricorn Sheep) : The two rappers were friends who collaborated on songs including, "Fight the Feeling" (2012), and "God is Fair, Sexy Nasty" (2016). Speaking after Miller died tragically at age 26, Lamar described: "All in all that’s the type of person he was — just a good dude. Always made you feel good, just a great energy to have around...Great musician. Great writer. He just always had a smile on his face...No matter what he was going through, he didn’t make you feel sorry for him, you know? He was strong about it —always kept a smile on his face because he wanted you to smile, too. And that’s just something I always loved, you know, no matter whatever personal issues, he gave you that energy. He gave you that energy. It wasn’t no misery loves company with him, you know? He showed a smile and then you gave that smile right back. It made you feel good. So forever we’re gonna remember the life and we’re gonna remember that smile. Celebrate. Mac Miller. Love."
