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."

Sheep and Rooster
Compatibility overview
Falling in the middle ground, between the heroes and black hats of the Chinese zodiac, is the mixed-bag combination of the Rooster and Sheep. These are two very different signs, who at times may be nonplussed or frustrated by one another, yet who are also capable of a deeply caring, admiring, and rewarding connection.

Like the elements in Western astrology, the four Trine Families of the Chinese zodiac divide naturally into two streams. The families of the Rooster (with the Ox and Snake) and Sheep (with the Pig and Rabbit) fall into different streams. However, while there are some potentially upsetting combinations between these two families (e.g., the Rooster and Rabbit, or the Sheep and Ox), the Rooster and Sheep are less affected by the surrounding tension. In fact, these two are often drawn together by important synergies.
The always on-point Rooster has an incredible ability to represent and respond to the zeitgeist, while the artistic soul of the Sheep responds with rare sensitivity the social needs and moods of their environment. Hence these two often find themselves in spirited discussion about contemporary affairs, sharing critical perceptions and impressions, in an atmosphere of intense learning and appreciation. Indeed, such exchanges can prove hugely motivating for both signs. The Sheep's insightfulness can inspire the Rooster to shake off self-absorption in favor of productivity, while the Rooster's drive to understand and impact cultural moments may channel the Sheep away from distractions towards accomplishment. Indeed, in measured doses this combination can do wonders for the confidence of both signs, and promote genuine selflessness and warmth.
Underlying tensions are perhaps most likely to reveal themselves in some jarring personality differences, and problems reaching mutual understanding. The Rooster typically exudes strength and robustness, whereas the Sheep is one of the Chinese zodiac's most peace-loving and impressionable signs. With extended contact, the Sheep could feel increasingly overwhelmed by the Rooster's sheer forcefulness, while the Rooster may have the impression of walking on eggshells. The Rooster has quite the appetite for drama, whereas the Sheep needs relaxation and harmony to avoid getting stressed. Without some respite, time spent together could devolve into the Rooster mostly talking loudly to and about themselves, while the Sheep becomes quietly preoccupied finding things to be anxious about.
Fortunately, the different characteristics of these signs are usually obvious, and they may become quite adept at giving each other the space they need for the relationship to work successfully. With suitable strategies in place, the benefits here could be reliable, sustainable, and wonderfully nourishing in any context.

Joel Madden (3/11/1979, Pisces Sheep), Nicole Richie (9/21/1981, Virgo Rooster) : Musician Madden and media personality Richie have been together since 2006, and married in 2010. They have two children. Speaking in 2014, Richie described: "We met and we were partners from Day 1. And from the second we found out we were going to be parents together, we looked at each other and we said, OK, both of our parents are divorced, we both have had ups and downs with our parents, and we don’t really have a strong example of what a healthy family life is. But we’re recognizing that now and so, let’s work at it and let’s go through this together as a team and it’s been great."
Addison O'Dea (6/15/1979, Gemini Sheep), Minnie Driver (1/31/1970, Aquarius Rooster) : Actor Driver and film-maker O'Dea have been in a relationship since 2019. In 2022, Driver described: "[Addison loves me] better and more fully [than anyone ever has]. We have the most hilarious and wonderful relationship on all these different levels...Of course I would wind up with a person who, in his own words, the reason he doesn’t want to get married is: ‘Why would I want to be in a throuple with the state of California?’… he’s like: ‘I don’t want to institutionalise love.'...[For me,] I don’t need to be formally married, but I would like a celebration of the ritual, I like that."
Mac Miller (1/19/1992, Capricorn Sheep), Ariana Grande (6/26/1993, Cancer Rooster) : Singer/actor Grande and rapper/producer Miller were close friends and collaborators, who also dated between 2016 and 2018. They worked together on songs including, "Baby, It's Cold Outside" (2012), "The Way" (2013), "My Favorite Part" (2016). In a statement after Miller died tragically in 2018, Grande described: "I adored you from the day i met you when i was nineteen and i always will. i can't believe you aren't here anymore. i really can't wrap my head around it. we talked about this. so many times. i'm so mad, i'm so sad i don’t know what to do. you were my dearest friend. for so long. above anything else. i'm so sorry i couldn't fix or take your pain away. i really wanted to. the kindest, sweetest soul with demons he never deserved. i hope you're okay now. rest."
Andrew Dominik (10/7/1967, Libra Sheep), Nick Cave (9/22/1957, Virgo Rooster) : Musician Cave and film director Dominik have been friends going back to the 1980s, when Dominik began dating Cave's ex-girlfriend. They have collaborated on two documentary films about Cave's life and work, One More Time with Feeling (2016), and This Much I Know to Be True (2022). Speaking about the former film, which addresses the trauma of Cave losing his fifteen-year-old son Arthur in a tragic accident, Dominik described: "That movie was a practical response to a practical problem...[Cave] realised that at some point he’d have to promote the record he was working on. How the f— was he going to do that without talking about Arthur?...I understood what he meant, so his idea was to make a film...What Nick has to say is very simple. You see him groping in all kinds of directions in One More Time With Feeling, but it’s not a million different paths – it’s one path. That’s the one we show in the film. When something like that happens to you, there’s no response but complete authenticity. People respond to authenticity with authenticity. All of a sudden you’re in this together and it makes you love your fellow man. It will happen to all of us."
Ed Sheeran (2/17/1991, Aquarius Sheep), Stormzy (7/26/1993, Leo Rooster) : Singer/songwriter Sheeran and rapper/singer/songwriter Stormzy share a close friendship, and have collaborated on songs including, "Own It" (2019), and "Take Me Back to London" (2019). From the stage at a concert in London, Stormzy described in 2022: "This is my best friend in the whole world. [Sheeran]'s been there for me through ups and downs. From day one. Ed, I just wanna say, I love you, brother." In 2021, Sheeran said, "Stormzy is the most good-hearted successful person I know that genuinely is overjoyed for my success. I can't take that for granted, because I don't have many friends who are famous musicians. I have lots of acquaintances and lots of people who I hang out with, but I would class Stormzy as a brother."
Mick Jagger (7/26/1943, Leo Sheep), Bianca Jagger (5/2/1945, Taurus Rooster) : The Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger and human rights advocate Bianca Jagger were married for seven years in the 1970s. Reflecting on the marriage in 1986, Bianca described: "[Mick has] a wonderful sense of humor, that I can understand no matter what...I mean, he could be stabbing me in the back, but he can make me laugh while he does it."
Kate Hudson (4/19/1979, Aries Sheep), Goldie Hawn (11/21/1945, Scorpio Rooster) : The two actors are mother and daughter. They have frequently expressed love and respect for each other in public statements. Asked about Hawn's supposed reputation for being "difficult" to work with, Hudson described in 2023: "[Hawn] had to really fight for a lot of these movies to be made [and] was seen by a lot of people as difficult and complicated because she had a point of view. She decided to tell people that told her to stay in her lane to go f— themselves and basically started producing her own movies, which wasn’t happening at the time...I saw her strength. I saw her conviction. She’s so determined. I mean she’s really unbelievable. She was on the cutting edge of this and she never gave up. Twenty years now and she’s finally getting her sort of kudos for what she’s been creating but she doesn’t let up. I don’t even know what I must’ve done in a past life to be born to her as a mother."
