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 and Eva Mendes

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 and Kurt Russell

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."

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.

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).

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."

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."
