Compatibility
Taurus Horse and Taurus Tiger

Shared firstwest energy provides a trustworthy common outlook here, and any risk of overfamiliarity is likely to be kept in check by the usually rock-solid alliance between the firsteast and secondeast.

Taurus and Taurus

Compatibility overview

Expect solidarity, strong creative affinities, and a proud lack of maturity in this meeting of kindred spirits. Mirror matches always involve an element of overfamiliarity, and two Taurus souls may at times find each other overly competitive, headstrong, or uncommitted to the connection between them. They share a powerful bedrock of common values, however, which can be conducive to an impactful—not to mention immensely entertaining—relationship.

Western own-sign combinations naturally share a common element, which for two Taureans is the steadying, usually rock-solid influence of Earth. The emphasis here is on dependability, predictability, and hard work. These two will instinctively shy away from anything that seems like a flash-in-the-pan. They much prefer long-term security and hard-won gains over long-shots or chasing fool's gold. Thus when two Taurus souls get together, they usually put each other at ease quickly. Humor is especially favored here, as the energy of Taurus is eternally young at heart—irreverent banter, playfulness, and innuendo are likely to bring them frequent and intense joy together. Not that they will be shying away from exertion while they amuse each other. Taurus is one of the most physical signs under the Sun, and all kinds of physical labor, sport, and sex tend to fascinate and inspire them. At work or play, these two will probably form an impressive, and frequently hilarious, team. This relationship can provide ample food for the soul, as well. Taurus can be deceptively emotional in their outlook, their often loud and apparently quite juvenile outward persona masking an artist's sensitivity and aestheticism. Two Taureans can offer each other much-needed reassurance and security, giving each other space and confidence to expose their more sensitive sides.

It will be necessary for these two to navigate occasionally destabilizing tensions. Own-sign matches cannot help but have too much in common, and a dearth of balancing differences. Taurus can be quite a brooding, recalcitrant sign, and here this obstinacy and distraction on both sides can lead to a lack of sympathy and understanding. The ever-youthful charm of Taurus may sometimes seem to cancel itself out in this pairing, leaving both parties with a sense that they have more to offer in other quarters. These two share a hugely productive but equally inflexible Fixed modality—they may move mountains when things are good, but in bad times their unwillingness to back down could leave them alternately furious and exhausted.

Grudges are unlikely to last long in this context, however, for ultimately these two are natural comrades. Provided they can find space to flex and grow independently as well as together, the substantial benefits of this relationship may yield lifelong pleasure, reliability, and inspiration.

Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox

Machine Gun Kelly (4/22/1990, Taurus Horse), Megan Fox (5/16/1986, Taurus Tiger) : Actor Fox and musician/actor Kelly have shared a high-profile and characteristically intense romantic relationship since 2020. They have collaborated on the films, Midnight in the Switchgrass (2021), Good Mourning (2022), and Taurus (2022). Describing Taurus, Kelly said, "This movie is really close to me. It's about the last week that a musician is alive and he's ... trying to find the good in himself. That's kinda how I feel a lot of the time." Fox said in their first joint interview in 2020: "I knew right away that [Kelly] was what I call a twin flame. Instead of a soul mate, a twin flame is actually where a soul has ascended into a high enough level that it can be split into two different bodies at the same time. So we're actually two halves of the same soul, I think. And I said that to him almost immediately, because I felt it right away."

Barbra Streisand (4/24/1942, Taurus Horse), Andre Agassi (4/29/1970, Taurus Dog) : Celebrated singer/actor/director Streisand and multiple grand-slam-winning tennis player Agassi caused a stir when they dated around 1992-1993. Agassi described in his book, Open (2009): "More often than not, Barbra and I laugh at the shock and scandal our dates cause. We agree that we’re good for each other, and so what if she’s twenty-eight years older? We’re simpatico, and the public outcry only adds spice to our connection. It makes our friendship feel forbidden, taboo—another piece of my overall rebellion. Dating Barbra Streisand is like wearing Hot Lava."

Keith Haring and Grace Jones

Grace Jones (5/19/1948, Taurus Rat), Keith Haring (5/4/1958, Taurus Dog) : Musician/model/actor Jones and artist Haring shared an iconic collaboration in the 1980s, with Haring painting Jones' body for music videos and films. Their work together included the music video, "I'm Not Perfect (But I’m Perfect For You)" (1986), and the film, Vamp (1986). Their collaborations have been described as, "[E]xploit[ing] the tensions and preconceptions spectators carry regarding race and gender. Jones’s fierce stage presence destabilizes historical relations of power enacted through male/female, black/white interaction, while her commanding voice leads the viewer through a symbolic negotiation."

Harvey Keitel (5/13/1939, Taurus Rabbit), Jane Campion (4/30/1954, Taurus Horse) : Director/screenwriter Campion and actor Keitel share a mutually respectful friendship. They collaborated on the acclaimed film, The Piano (1993), written and directed by Campion, and later on Holy Smoke! (1999). Speaking about The Piano, Keitel described: "'The Piano' exists on many levels. It's a complex text. One of the levels most apparent to me is that Jane has done what I have often seen men do — i.e., a woman gathering herself up, taking responsibility for herself and her sexual needs and her spiritual needs, and taking action to fulfill herself. That has usually been the domain of the man. Jane has gained access to that domain. It's a man's world. I see it that way. And it's to our detriment that it is so. Jane has struck out in a way that has helped me to come closer to an understanding of myself and woman."

Toby Stephens and Anna-Louise Plowman

Toby Stephens (4/21/1969, Taurus Rooster), Anna-Louise Plowman (5/9/1972, Taurus Rat) : The two actors have been married since 2001, and have three children. They have collaborated multiple times, including in the TV series, Black Sails (2014-2017), and a stage production of the Noël Coward play, Private Lives. Describing their stage work in a joint interview, Stephens said, "It’s been great. Even though you’re together, with kids you actually rarely talk to one another because everything fits around the children, so it’s actually very nice having time together. I suppose there was the slight anxiety between the two of us that it might be difficult, but it hasn’t been at all." Plowman added, "I think it’s partly because of the people we are; Toby and I are not jealous or competitive of one another’s careers. That would be ridiculous."

Robert Fripp and Brian Eno

Brian Eno (5/15/1948, Taurus Rat), Robert Fripp (5/16/1946, Taurus Dog) : The two legendary musicians—Fripp from the band King Crimson, and Eno from Roxy Music—formed an experimental duo that Rolling Stone ranked 17th on their list of the best duos of all time. Often using the recording technique known as "Frippertronics", they recorded four studio albums: (No Pussyfooting) (1973), Evening Star (1975), The Equatorial Stars (2004), and Beyond Even (1992–2006) (2007). Fripp described in 1988: "I very much enjoyed working with Eno, of course, but it wasn't a question of deliberately making an instrumental record. It was: 'Come home for dinner.' 'Alright Brian, what time?' 'I don't know, some time.' Then turning up and, for no reason I know, taking my guitar and pedalboard and so forth. Eno saying: 'Would you like to plug in and see what you think?' Three days later I heard it and said: 'didn't think much of that!' That became Side One of No Pussyfootin'...For the very first concert in Madrid, we decided what we were going to do five minutes before we went on. And that was the beginning of the Fripp and Eno tour. It was a lot of fun. Two lads having fun, both with a good sense of humour."

The Horse and Tiger pairing is a truly wonderful energy match, attracting both inspirational and profoundly stabilising energy in the Chinese zodiac.

The central concept underlying Chinese astrology is the four Trine Families. One of these families includes the Horse and Tiger (with their kindred spirit, the Dog). This family is bound together by spirited, righteous energy. They are driven to succeed, and willing to make all kinds of sacrifices to achieve their goals, yet they also aspire to noble values of egalitarianism and service to others. Early contacts between the Horse and Tiger thus often represent a true meeting of minds. Horse natives are rarely shy about putting their prodigious talents on show—their pioneering brand of razzle-dazzle will likely captivate the Tiger from first sight. Even quieter Tiger souls have a commanding presence, and their noble pronouncements tend to immediately impress and attract the freewheeling Horse.

As these two get to know each other better, the real magic can potentially take hold. The Horse and Tiger are each defined by an essential inner contradiction. They are dyed-in-the-wool independents, reluctant to defer to anyone else's vision or authority, yet they also feel forever incomplete without a trusted partner or inner circle. The great compatibility between the Horse and Tiger means that somehow their respective needs for autonomy bring them together instead of wedging them apart. These two can comfortably spend time at a distance, or intensely challenge or confront one another, and the connection between them will only grow stronger as a result. Indeed, as is typical for Trine Family matches like this one, it is the evergreen nature of this combination that sometimes represents its greatest risk. For this kind of precious connection can sometimes seem too natural, too effortless, to be worthy of total commitment.

If the Horse and Tiger trust and invest in the power of their shared energy, then whatever the context, their relationship can be a once-in-a-lifetime source of belonging, adventure, and potency.

Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault

François-Henri Pinault (5/28/1962, Gemini Tiger), Salma Hayek (9/2/1966, Virgo Horse) : The actor and business entrepreneur had a daughter together in 2007 and have been married since 2009. In 2021, Hayek was quoted as saying, "When there is conflict, we put all the energy in solving the problem - never finding who to blame or 'You should have done this or that.' No, all our energy goes into: 'How do we solve this?'"

Pauletta Washington (9/28/1950, Libra Tiger), Denzel Washington (12/28/1954, Capricorn Horse) : Married since 1983, the Washingtons have four children together. Denzel Washington has described: "The difference between a house and a home, it’s a big difference. You can buy a house, but that doesn’t make it a home—and not to say a man can’t make a home a home, but my wife has made our house a home, and raised these beautiful kids, and protected them and sacrificed for them. She did the heavy lifting."

Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner

Christine Baumgartner (3/4/1974, Pisces Tiger), Kevin Costner (1/18/1955, Capricorn Horse) : The actor and model/designer were together from around 2000 until Baumgartner surprised many by filing for divorce in 2023. They married in 2004 and have three children. Costner said in 2018, "Fear kept me from marrying Christine. I woke up and thought, Am I going to lose a beautiful woman who is willing to be with me to my very last breath because I am afraid to say yes to a child? That’s all it took. Sometimes you learn the thing you’re most afraid of will save your life."

Rande Gerber (4/27/1962, Taurus Tiger), Cindy Crawford (2/20/1966, Pisces Horse) : The supermodel and business entrepreneur have been married since 1998 and have two children together. Gerber has said about the relationship, "We started as friends and we remained friends. You have to just keep that friendship and fun in the relationship."

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson

Robert Pattinson (5/13/1986, Taurus Tiger), Kristen Stewart (4/9/1990, Aries Horse) : The two actors became household names as stars of the Twilight film series. They dated between around 2009 to 2013, and for a time were one of the most famous celebrity couples in the world. Stewart continues to speak positively about Pattinson and their relationship. She has described: "When me and Rob were together, we did not have an example to go by. So much was taken from us that, in trying to control one aspect, we were just like, 'No, we will never talk about it. Never. Because it’s ours.'"

Jackie Sandler(9/24/1974, Libra Tiger), Adam Sandler (9/9/1966, Virgo Horse) : The two actors have been married since 2003 and have two daughters together. About his critically-acclaimed performance in the film Uncut Gems (2019), Adam Sandler said: "My badass wife, she gave me the balls to take the part. I was scared and she said, 'Go [expletive] do that and you can do that [expletive]' and we rehearsed together all the time."

Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder

Stevie Wonder (5/13/1950, Taurus Tiger), Aretha Franklin (3/25/1942, Aries Horse) : The two celebrated musicians shared a longtime close friendship. After Franklin died in 2018, Wonder described visiting during her final days: "[Franklin] wasn't able to speak back, but her family felt that she could hear me, and so I just said all the things that I've always said and told her to say hello to my sister [Renee Hardaway] that I lost this year as well...She was just consistently a great human being, and she always — even with whatever turmoil may have been happening in her life, even through her illness — she did not put that on anybody else. She believed, I think that most of all she was doing God's work, and she was. She brought joy to others' lives, and she will — her voice and the essence of her will long [out]live all of us that are here right now."

Kirstie Alley (1/12/1951, Capricorn Tiger), John Travolta (2/18/1954, Aquarius Horse) : The two actors starred memorably in the Look Who's Talking films and formed a close friendship. Alley described later: "I almost ran off and married John. I did love him, I still love him. If I hadn’t been married I would’ve gone and married him and I would’ve been in an airplane because he has his own plane…He's a very generous person. He's very interested. If you ever talk to John, and this is genuine with him, you will become the most interesting thing that he's ever met in his life."


Combined Relationship Horoscope

Final Words

Own-sign combinations such as firstwest and secondwest have the great blessing of a shared element in their favor. There can be a surplus of common energy, though, which sometimes compromises excitement and or impedes progress. Happily, in this match the Chinese zodiac pairing of firsteast and secondeast contributes a wealth of benefits, including not only thrills and mutual advancement, but also any-kind-of-weather dependability. In all, this is a special match, likely to prove a gift in any context.
