Western Zodiac
Taurus and Pisces
Compatibility overview
The usually calm and delightful energy between firstwest and secondwest may prove to be one of the true unsung heroes of Western astrology. These two may lack some intensity, meaning other relationships are prioritized or demand more attention. But there is a beautifully any-kind-of-weather reliability to this connection, which can provide great joy in high times, and solace in times of need.

The interval of two signs between Pisces and Taurus forms a Sextile connection. This energy is famously relaxed and trustworthy—even lengthy breaks in communication can be mended almost in an instant. Freedom is the watchword here, as these two signs tend to admire each other's truest self, and thus instinctively give each other plenty of room to move.
Pisces' dreamy nature means they can be unpredictable or unreliable from time to time, so they are naturally drawn to Taurus' famous solidity and determination. Taurus, meanwhile, may be guilty of neglecting their soulful, creative side, which Pisces has a rare gift for bringing out into the open. The atmosphere between these two rarely involves criticism or negative judgment, and is rather characterized by openness, acceptance, and humor. There is also a rock-solid dependability to this gentle positivity, as the respective elements—Earth for Taurus, Water for Pisces—are always harmonious, meaning alliances and collaboration can flow with relatively little effort.
The modalities here are equally complementary, with Taurus' practical and achievement-oriented Fixed nature forming a beautiful segue into the more reflective Mutable energy of Pisces, with its concern for consequences and implications. Hence shared projects are not only likely to be enjoyable, but there is every chance they will be seen through to completion, offering both signs great pleasure, fulfillment, and success.
Oftentimes the most serious problem these two encounter is a lack of urgency or precedence. The easygoing nature of the Pisces/Taurus connection means it is sometimes taken for granted or neglected, especially if other demands or duties compete for the signs' attention. After all, the strength of this pairing lies in the compatibility of their differences as much as their similarities, so it is quite likely they will find themselves being pulled in opposite directions, at least from time to time. Fortunately, the underlying reliability here is almost impossible to strain past breaking point, and these two can usually drop back easily into the warm, reassuring atmosphere that typifies their time together.
If they can give each other the time and respect their relationship deserves, this energy can be a wonderful source of tenderness, inspiration, and joy.

Olivia Harrison (5/18/1948, Taurus Rat), George Harrison (2/25/1943, Pisces Sheep) : The musician (founding member of The Beatles) and author/film producer were married from 1978 until George Harrison died in 2001. They had one child. In the documentary film, George Harrison: Living in the Material World (2011), Olivia described: "I thought [George] was really somebody who was saying something that I connected with. He was really a very captivating person… I liked the music, I liked what he was doing. We just seemed like partners from the very beginning...We had our differences. I might have done a different technique than he did, but we both had the same goal, and I think that was really the key to everything in our lives."
J Balvin (5/7/1985, Taurus Ox), Bad Bunny (3/10/1994, Pisces Dog) : Rapper/singer/songwriter/producer Bad Bunny and singer/songwriter/producer J Balvin share a close and collaborative friendship. Highlights of their work together include the chart-topping single, "I Like It" (2018, with Cardi B), and their multi-platinum album as a duo, Oasis (2019). Balvin described in 2019, "We have been working on [Oasis] for a long time, and finally, we found its moment. Working with J Balvin has undoubtedly been an unparalleled experience. I have always admired and respected him a lot and we have had an excellent vibe throughout this whole process. I am proud to say I LOVE Bad Bunny; we always seem to be on the same wavelength, as he likes what I like. He is also all about celebrating our culture while remaining super humble. Working with Benito again has been a musical joy. I am blessed to not only call him my brother but now a partner on an album that has even become a personal Oasis."
Tina Fey (5/18/1970, Taurus Dog), Rachel Dratch (2/22/1966, Pisces Horse) : The two actor/comedian/writer/producers are longtime friends and collaborators. Their work together includes the TV shows, Saturday Night Live (1975-present), and 30 Rock (2006-2013), and the films, Martin & Orloff (2002), Sisters (2015), and Wine Country (2019). Presenting Fey with the PEN/Mike Nichols Writing for Performance Award in 2023, Dratch said, "Tina, I will say this. If I had one wish for you tonight, it would be that you had written this speech I am giving in your honor. It would be far wittier and, let’s face it, your speech would probably be turned into a Broadway play that could then become a movie that could in turn be a musical and then a movie musical and then back into a Broadway play and then into an avant garde performance piece downtown. [It would]…make you laugh out loud, it would include some sort of social satire, probably with a feminist bent that would make you say YES! LADY POWER!! But nothing cringey, you would be belly-laughing and maybe not even realize you had learned something about society along the way."
Sally Hawkins (4/27/1976, Taurus Dragon), Rafe Spall (3/10/1983, Pisces Pig) : The two actors share a strong friendship, and have collaborated multiple times, including the film A Brilliant Young Mind [or X+Y] (2014), and a stage production of Constellations (2012). Hawkins described in 2015: "That's when it's as good as it can get, when you're with someone that you love and you really respect as an actor and that you can really trust and just do anything, really. That's what makes a difference when you're watching a film, you notice that and there's a truth to it...[Spall and I know know each other so well] it's like a code, a language...When an audience sees Rafe arrive they know he's going to make them laugh in some way or care about him in some way. That's palpable."
Penélope Cruz (4/28/1974, Taurus Tiger), Javier Bardem (3/1/1969, Pisces Rooster) : The two actors began dating in 2007, and married in 2010. They have two children. They have collaborated multiple times, dating back to Jamón Jamón (1992) when Cruz was 16, including the further films, Live Flesh (1997), Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008), Loving Pablo (2017), The Counselor (2013), and Everybody Knows (2018). Though for the most part they have avoided discussing their relationship in public, in 2017 Bardem said, "It was easy working with Penélope. She is a great actress and we can always challenge one another to go farther, deeper, bigger and smaller. She can immediately tell what I’m doing; where I’m going. We know how to play with each other and try different things. All it takes is a little look, or a word here and there. So we pushed each other to be more daring... That confidence that we have in each other is a great thing."
Krist Novoselic (5/16/1965, Taurus Snake), Kurt Cobain (2/20/1967, Pisces Sheep) : The two musicians grew up in the town of Aberdeen, Seattle, and together founded the band Nirvana in 1987. Novoselic described in 2009, "We would just lock ourselves away. We would practice every day, and we’d be really serious about rehearsing. We would play over and over and over, and we would develop things...Kurt, he was the genesis of it. He was a true artist. He could have done sculptures; he could have been a painter; he could have been a comic book cartoonist, and he chose to make music a priority...One thing that Kurt would do is when he’d arrange a tune he’d tend to drive the riff into the ground. And so I would come in and say, 'Well, we need to do that riff half as long. Or here’s the structure, verse-chorus-verse, this and that.' Which was all basically Beatles, which was Tin Pan Alley...So it’s just basically like listening to so much music for so long, I wasn’t inventing anything. I was just kind of putting it into this traditional format, or suggesting that we do it."

The Dog and Tiger pairing attracts powerfully favourable and impactful energy in the Chinese Zodiac.
The essential building blocks of Chinese astrology are the four Trine Families. One such family brings together the Dog and Tiger (and their comrade-in-arms, the Horse). The binding energy here mixes compassion and ambition in equal measure. These two kindred souls are born determined to make their mark, but only if success does not risk compromising their high ideals. In early encounters, the bedrock of principled ambition produces reliably supportive, engaging interactions. The Dog's support for underdog causes, especially anyone neglected or treated unfairly by society at large, resonates with the Tiger's commitment to justice and sacrifice. The Tiger's gifts for leadership and originality will impress and inspire the faithful Dog.
Even before they realize exactly what is happening, these two will often begin working seamlessly together, each instinctively picking up whatever slack there is, their teamwork quickly becoming more than the sum of its parts. Mutual appeal on the physical level is also highly likely. As their connection deepens, the dependence and trust in this match can become profoundly meaningful and produce extraordinary results. While usually well-disguised, the Dog's tendency for anxiety can be severe. The Tiger's brand of passionate self-belief can ease this nervousness and help the humble Dog apply themselves to projects with happy courage. Meanwhile, the Tiger's weakness for rash and foolhardy actions is likely to be much less problematic when balanced by the Dog's patient counsel and determination.
There is an any-kind-of-weather quality to trine matches like this, which can make them just as beneficial and fruitful in familial, professional, or intimate connections. The only real risk is that the energy here may seem too easy, making one or both parties overlook the particular harmony at play here. Given the attention it deserves, therefore, is important to realise its true potential.
This wonderful match offers a rare and deeply fulfilling alliance, capable of yielding stunning results for the signs themselves and their wider community.

Paul Daniels (4/6/1938, Aries Tiger), Debra McGee (10/31/1958, Scorpio Dog) : The magician and his long-time assistant were married from 1988 until Daniels' death in 2016. Daniels described in 2014, "[McGee] makes me laugh. Our relationship hasn’t changed over time: she still adores me. I hope we make each other feel very cared for and cherished. I would do anything for her – and I know she would for me."
Lil' Kim (7/11/1974, Cancer Tiger), Mary J. Blige (1/11/1971, Capricorn Dog) : The two celebrated hip-hop artists have been friends for decades and have collaborated on multiple occasions, including "I Can Love You" and "Hold On".

She’s a trailblazer and one of the biggest rappers [and] most respected rappers in the business."
Polly Samson (4/29/1962, Taurus Tiger), David Gilmour (3/6/1946, Pisces Dog) : The musician and novelist have been married since 1994 and share four children together (including a son from Samson's previous relationship). Samson has explained: "David has always been incredibly, incredibly supportive of me. There’s a motif in [my novel] A Theater for Dreamers that starts when [the character] Leonard says how lovely it would be if he had a gardenia and a sandwich placed on his desk every day...And in our relationship, we take it in turns. David is as likely to get me a gardenia and a sandwich as I am to get him one."
Joaquin Phoenix (10/28/1974, Scorpio Tiger), River Phoenix (8/23/1970, Virgo Dog) : The two famous brothers grew up in an itinerant family and were always close. Joaquin Phoenix has described how River played songs for him on the guitar hours before River's tragic death in 1993. Joaquin also recounted: "[River] suggested I change my name [from Leaf back to Joaquin] and then, I don’t know, six months later, whatever it was, we were in Florida, we were in the kitchen, and he said, 'You’re going to be an actor and you're going to be more well known than I am.' Me and my mom looked at each other like, 'What the [expletive] is he talking about?’ I don’t know why he said that or what he knew of me at the time. I hadn’t been acting at all. But he also said it with a certain weight, with a knowing that seemed so absurd to me at the time, but of course now, in hindsight, you’re like, 'How the [expletive] did he know?'"
Flea (10/16/1962, Libra Tiger), John Frusciante (3/5/1970, Pisces Dog) : The two musicians have been longtime friends and collaborators, since Frusciante joined the Red Hot Chili Peppers at age 18. (Flea and fellow founding member of the RHCP, Anthony Kiedis (11/1/1962), were both born in 1962 and share this energy match with Frusciante.) Flea has described: "John Frusciante has a profound impact on everything that we do, and even when we wasn’t in the band he had a profound impact on everything that we do. He is just the most focused, dedicated, tapped-in musician who’s able to muster this diligence and focus about doing what he does consistently, that just uplifts us."
Elle Fanning (4/9/1998, Aries Tiger), Dakota Fanning (2/23/1994, Pisces Dog) : The two sisters were child actors who have gone on to have successful careers as adults. They have described the special bond between them and their shared development as actors. Elle Fanning has said: "[We] would play these elaborate scenes around the house. Like birthing scenes… I would be the baby coming out. Crazy stuff like that. We were doing it for ourselves; we weren’t, like, 'Oh, Mom and Dad, sit down and we’re gonna perform for you.' That was how we played."
