Western Zodiac
Taurus and Scorpio
Compatibility overview
This intense match is ultimately as favorable as any in Western astrology, though it is far from plain sailing! On any given subject, firstwest and secondwest are probably as likely to disagree as agree. Challenges, squabbling, competitiveness—such combative tensions are par for the course between these two. Yet, strange as it may seem, this oppositional energy can ultimately turn out to be a pure delight. In the right circumstances, it can be endlessly enriching and entertaining—in short, a brilliant foundation for an enjoyable and sustaining relationship.

Facing each other across the Western zodiac wheel, the six famous Opposition matches attract some of the most powerful energy in all astrology. Scorpio and Taurus will usually recognize a peculiar brand of combative attraction as soon as they meet. Disputation is practically inevitable.
Taurus is famously reliable, careful, and set in their ways. Scorpio's character, on the other hand, is defined by essential fluidity, apt to change in a heartbeat from sweet sensitivity to tempestuousness. Hence Taurus is likely to find Scorpio's instincts consistently unsettling or worrying, while Scorpio will likely find Taurus's attitudes prosaic or sluggish. Taurus also tends to keep their emotions firmly in-check, while Scorpio is as naturally expressive as anyone under the sun. Challenges may take myriad forms, but an underlying sense that Taurus feels Scorpio needs to slow down, while Scorpio presses Taurus to speed up, is usually unavoidable.
There is a take-no-prisoners intensity to the oppositional energy here, as both signs share a Fixed modality. This modality emphasizes productivity and perseverance, meaning neither Scorpio nor Taurus is apt to retreat or compromise. The bewitching quality of Opposition energy, however, means these quite dramatic tensions can in fact strengthen rather than weaken this connection. For one thing, the combative atmosphere between Scorpio and Taurus usually expresses itself not so much as anger or frustration, but as humor, playfulness, or attraction. Indeed, there is just about no combination in the zodiac as consistently hilarious as Scorpio and Taurus when they get together. Furthermore, when these two do agree, the force of their shared convictions can be extraordinary.
Opposition matches like this one are the only kind of match where a shared modality meets compatible elements. Scorpio's Water forms a naturally harmonious partner with Taurus' Earth, so teamwork and collaboration are innate and marked for success. Consciously and unconsciously, these two often share fundamental ideals and objectives for the future, even as they seem at a more superficial level to needle each other like champions.
On balance, this is a thoroughbred of a match, demanding and hard to handle, but simply spectacular when given the freedom to run.

Jessica Lange (4/20/1949, Taurus Ox), Sam Shepard (11/5/1943, Scorpio Sheep) : The actor and actor/writer/director were together from 1983 until 2009, and had two children together. Shepard described in 2010, "[W]e're definitely an incredible match. But, you know, not without fireworks… although at this point, you know, she's the only woman I could live with. Who could live with me! What other woman would put up with me?...Jessica has this absolute honesty. I think it's a direct quality of the midwest, of that background that she's from."
Elaine May (4/21/1932, Taurus Monkey), Mike Nichols (11/6/1931, Scorpio Sheep) : The comedian/writer and director/comedian formed the comedy duo Nichols & May. The worked together for only four years (1959-1962), but they have been described as a critical influence on modern comedy, and have remained friends for over 50 years. In a rare joint interview in 2012, May said: "We were very similar. I mean, he was a Method actor, and I was Method. One of the big strengths was that we really, actually, worked the same way. We found the same things funny; we were both mean and Method. So that was the strength. Also, I found him hilarious." Nichols responded: "I found her hilarious."
Dwayne Johnson (5/2/1972, Taurus Rat), Ryan Reynolds (10/23/1976, Scorpio Dragon) : The two actors have been friends for over 15 years. About working together on the film Red Notice (2021), which suspended filming during the pandemic in 2020, Reynolds described: "We made it about 1 or 2 days past the halfway point line. I'm guessing we might've finished the movie if we didn't spend 90 percent of the time dicking around, laughing. I've known Dwayne for like 15 years. So, we tend to spend time trying to make each other laugh, which is a really irresponsible thing to do with Netflix, their money. I think one of the reasons I’ve been friends with him for a long time is he really laughs at himself, which is one of the things I love about him. So if you kinds of parrot back [his lines] just 27 percent faster with a swear word at the end, he’s gone. He leaves the room and he never comes back."
John Corbett (5/9/1961, Taurus Ox), Bo Derek (11/20/1956, Scorpio Monkey) : The two actors have been a couple since 2002 and married in 2020. Derek has described: "It's that twinkle in [Corbett's] eye, that humor. He has a lot of joy in him and I feed off of it. I just love it. And the simplest things can make him so happy, so he makes my day brighter because of that, too. And he's got a wicked sense of humor."
George Clooney (5/6/1961, Taurus Ox), Julia Roberts (10/28/1967, Scorpio Sheep) : The two movie stars have appeared together on multiple occasions, including Ocean's Eleven and Twelve, and Clooney's directorial debut, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, and have a reputation for peerless on-screen chemistry. Roberts has described: "We became instant friends. You know, you just meet people and sometimes you think, ‘I really don’t like that person, I have no reason to not like them, I just don’t like them and I will never change my mind. Then there’s some people, like my GTC [George Timothy Clooney] who you go, ‘OK, I’m gonna know this person until the end of time.’"
Michael Brandon (20/4/1945, Taurus Rooster), Glynis Barber (10/25/1955, Scorpio Sheep) : The two actors have been married since 1989 and have one child. Barber has described: "You would hope after 20 years it would calm down a bit, and I suppose we have mellowed, but it’s still quite volatile. I don’t know, maybe that’s the secret? The one thing is that it’s never boring."

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.

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."
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."
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."
