A Trine match, four steps apart on the zodiac wheel, the pairing of Capricorn and Taurus is one of the most desirable combinations in Western astrology.

These two share the element of Earth, so they both prize qualities of physicality, practicality, and stability. For these signs, worthwhile goals result from patient dedication and diligence, rather than anything too flashy or lacking substance. Early communications will likely highlight this bedrock of common values. They will sense they are both moving in the same direction and could benefit from travelling together. Capricorns may be one of the most varied of all the signs, but they are almost always intent on and gifted at rising up through the ranks and wielding power. The physical prowess, patience, and methodical nature of the Taurus soul thus makes them an immediately attractive ally. Taurus, on the other hand, is never happier than when they have a well-thought-out project or mission to which they can apply their determination and physical and mental strength. Hence the grounded yet visionary outlook of Capricorn provides Taurus with inspiration and reassurance in equal measure.

The modalities here—the initiating energy of the Cardinal sign Capricorn and the more production-focused, Fixed energy of Taurus—form a natural sequence from inception to realisation. Hence, as this relationship progresses, extraordinarily ambitious goals can conceptualized and accomplished, through an enviable blend of foresight, management, and perseverance. There is no shortage of emotional support, either. Taurus natives are sometimes guilty of selfishness or procrastination, which the ambitious Capricorn is able to out-manoeuvre with subtlety and a clear sense of direction. Capricorn, meanwhile, can be weighed down by their own expectations, making them dour or morose at times. Taurus' infectious love of physical pleasures can provide an invaluable spirit-lifting influence.

All in all, this is a blessing of a match, as propitious as any in the Western zodiac.

Al Pacino (4/25/1940, Taurus Dragon), Diane Keaton (1/5/1946, Capricorn Rooster) : The actors played an iconic couple in The Godfather, and for a time were together in real life. Keaton has said, "For me, the Godfathers, all three of them, were about one thing — Al. It was as simple as that." On another occasion, she described: "I was mad for him. Charming, hilarious, a nonstop talker. There was an aspect of him that was like a lost orphan, like this kind of crazy idiot savant. And oh, gorgeous!" In a speech to celebrate Keaton's AFI Lifetime Achievement award in 2017, Pacino concluded by saying, "I love you forever."

Richard E Grant (5/5/1957, Taurus Rooster), Olivia Grant (1/4/1989, Capricorn Dragon) : The actor and his casting director daughter have an enduringly close relationship. Richard E. Grant took Olivia (nicknamed "Oilly") to the Oscars when he was nominated in 2019, and has described how they speak on the phone "at least once a day.

Tina Fey and Jeff Richmond

Tina Fey (5/18/1970, Taurus Dog), Jeff Richmond (1/7/1961, Capricorn Rat) : The comedian/actor and composer dated for seven years before marrying in 2001. Asked about the relationship in 2021, Richmond spoke about the scar on Fey's face, sustained in an attack when she was five. "That scar was fascinating to me. This is somebody who, no matter what it was, has gone through something. And I think it really informs the way she thinks about her life. When you have that kind of thing happen to you, that makes you scared of certain things, that makes you frightened of different things, your comedy comes out in a different kind of way, and it also makes you feel for people."

Carol Burnett (4/26/1933, Taurus Rooster), Joe Hamilton (1/6/1929, Capricorn Dragon) : The actor/comedian and TV producer were married for over twenty years and had three children together. As well as being her husband, Hamilton has been described as a mentor and champion of Burnett's over many years, including when they collaborated as star and producer of The Carol Burnett Show between 1967 and 1978.

Coretta Scott King (4/27/1927, Taurus Rabbit), Martin Luther King, Jr. (1/15/1929, Capricorn Dragon) : The venerated minister/activist and author/activist were married from 1953 until Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination in 1968. They had four children together. Corretta Scott King has been quoted as saying: "I came to the realization that we had been thrust into the forefront of a movement to liberate oppressed people, and this movement had worldwide implications. I felt blessed to have been called to be a part of such a noble and historic cause."

Rami Malek (5/12/1981, Taurus Rooster), Lucy Boynton (1/17/1994, Capricorn Rooster) : The two actors have been reputedly dating since around 2017. In accepting the Oscar for best actor in 2019 (for Bohemian Rhapsody), Malek said, "Lucy Boynton, you are the heart of this film, you are beyond immensely talented, you have captured my heart."

David Bowie (1/8/1947, Capricorn Dog), Brian Eno (5/15/1948, Taurus Rat) : The two musicians collaborated multiple times, including co-writing multiple tracks on Bowie's celebrated ""Berlin Trilogy"" of albums in the late 1970s. Eno described: "We knew each other for over 40 years, in a friendship that was always tinged by echoes of [British comedy duo] Pete and Dud. Over the last few years – with him living in New York and me in London – our connection was by email. We signed off with invented names: some of his were Mr. Showbiz, Milton Keynes, Rhoda Borrocks and the Duke of Ear...I received an email from him 7 days [before his death]. It was as funny as always, and as surreal, looping through word games and allusions and all the usual stuff we did. It ended with this sentence: 'Thank you for our good times, Brian. They will never rot,' and it was signed, 'Dawn.' I realize now he was saying goodbye."

The Rabbit and Pig is one of the most special matches in the entire Chinese zodiac. At its core, Chinese astrology is based on four Trine Families, like the elements in the Western zodiac. The family that includes the Pig and Rabbit—along with their close ally, the Sheep—is the gentlest, most peaceable of the four.

Chances are, these two will sense a delicious calmness fall over them as soon as they meet. The Rabbit's idealistic, artistic temperament tends to feel immediately encouraged and supported by the abundantly generous Pig. The Pig is likely to sense from the beginning that the Rabbit's motives are pure and kind, and that the Pig's trusting nature will never be taken advantage of.

This combination naturally emphasises aesthetics, goodness and compassion—everything that is beautiful in the world. Hence as a duo they will be motivated towards conflict resolution, creative expression, and sensual experience. The vices that can arise for these two souls in other contexts—self-sabotage or irritability for the Pig; fearfulness or isolation for the Rabbit—are mercifully rare or absent when they are together. Instead, this relationship is deeply protective and nurturing.

While the Pig/Rabbit combination is known to contribute a sense of harmony to many families, it is equally true that these two can contribute their magical, family-like energy to any setting where they are welcome and comfortable.

The two traded affectionate birthday messages, with Pugh writing in April 2021: "It's this magical person[']s birthday...His need to make people laugh and smile is never ending, his constant generosity and love for others is infectious, his creativity and ability to put real and honest words onto the page inspires many and all who's around him." Braff wrote in January 2022, "Happy birthday to this beautiful human being. I am so lucky to know you. And the world is so lucky they get to witness your incredible talent."

Tomlin has described, "[Wagner] expresses how I feel, which I have no ability to do.

Linda Cardellini (6/25/1975, Cancer Rabbit), Christina Applegate (11/25/1971, Sagittarius Pig) : The two actors starred together in the show Dead to Me and became close friends.

Drew Barrymore (2/22/1975, Pisces Rabbit), Tom Green (7/30/1971, Leo Pig) : The actor/media personality and actor/comedian/film-maker were married from 2001-2002, after meeting on the set of Charlie's Angels (2000). In 2021, they reconnected on The Drew Barrymore Show (2020-present), with Barrymore explaining, "We have not seen each other face-to-face, actually, in almost 20 years." Green said on the show, "It's very nice to see you. It does feel weird, though. Not weird in a bad way — weird in a good way. Appreciate it, Drew, so thanks for having me on the show. It's awesome. This is cool. I actually think this is a nice way of reconnecting, actually. It takes a little bit of the pressure off."

Michael Jordan (2/17/1963, Aquarius Rabbit), Magic Johnson (8/14/1959, Leo Pig) : The two basketball legends developed a supportive friendship when they represented the US as part of the 1992, "Dream Team". Johnson described: "Man, I had some of my fondest memories just hanging out with Michael. We played cards every night against each other. And if I had the upper hand, he wanted to play another hour. [And] another hour. And then he never wants to just beat you. He wants to put his foot on your neck and just...[makes growling sound]. You’re not satisfied with beating me? You want to crush me too? Yup."

Conan O'Brien (4/18/1963, Aries Rabbit), David Letterman (4/12/1947, Aries Pig) : The two late night hosts developed a supportive friendship over many years. In 1994, Letterman famously returned to NBC as O'Brien's guest—after being rejected by the network himself—which gave O'Brien's show a memorable and much-needed boost. Said Letterman on the show, "You guys do an incredible amount of comedy and stuff that is produced that is very high level. The volume and the quality of the stuff just knocks me out. I think you’ve really done a great job to carve out a wonderful identity for yourselves… I think you did a nice job."
