The PISCES 4-1-1

Element: Water
Ruling Planet: Neptune, Jupiter
Quality: Mutable
Nature: Negative, Feminine
Symbol: Fish

Health Alert: Pisces rule the feet and its structural bones and toes. They must be careful with sprains, stubbed toes, ankle issues, bunions, or broken bones. Since many Pisces are avid runners, dancers or sports-enthusiasts, they need to learn to guard their feet to avoid permanent damage or invasive surgery. Internally, Pisces rule the lymphatic system. They must take caution when it comes to internal inflammation, gland functions in general, and problems with drugs. Allergic reactions to drugs, and a susceptibility to addictions, can become a serious issue for Pisces, who use drugs and alcohol to escape reality or numb themselves from their intense emotions. These said emotions can cause Pisces to struggle with depression and psychosomatic illnesses more often than not. Most of their health issues stem from emotional distress, and as such, they tend to have a weak immune system to fight off colds, flu, sinus infections, or other illnesses. Therapeutic ways of avoiding addictive tendencies and reducing stress on the body would be yoga or Pilates, which most Pisces love because it helps them to feel spiritually aligned as well. Last but not least, Pisces tend to indulge in expensive tastes when it comes to rich foods. They should be wary of excessive drinking and eating, especially late night. Their bodies have a delicate system and their metabolism is a bit weaker than most.

Where to Find a Pisces: performing on-stage, whether it be a dance production, musical collaboration, or play. They are heavily involved in the arts, so when they aren’t on stage, they can likely be found working late hours in an art or dance studio, reading in a bookstore, rehearsing their lines with a cast mate, cooking in a restaurant, or attending a lecture on religion or philosophy. You may also find a lot of Pisces working in marketing or graphic design firms, as they get to apply their artistic skills in a corporate environment. You can also find them near water (ocean, lake, etc) meditating or just watching the scenery while writing down their latest poem or chapter in their novel. Most Pisceans are involved in charity work and the Church, so an easy target would be to go to a worship service or sign up for volunteer work in your area (animal shelters, soup kitchens, mentoring programs, campaign fundraising, etc). New Age workshops, readings, or events is a prime target for the typical Pisces, who is very in-tune with alternative lifestyles. This said lifestyle leads them to organic food markets and grocery stores, too. If all else fails, you are guaranteed to find a Pisces in a yoga or Pilates studio (and probably, they are teaching the class!).

How to Spot a Pisces: they are fairly easy to spot because they tend to stand out like a sore thumb in a crowd. Many of them have light eyes that are soft and soulful, which they use to analyze the environment around them. They won’t be the loud person in the room always talking. In fact, they will be the quiet one you have to draw out of their shell. Once they are drawn out, they can be quite witty and charming, surprising most people. A hearty laugh that throws their head back, and frequent movements of their head is also a noticeable trait (that “huh? me?” what?” movement). It’s almost as if they look like someone has splashed water on their face. Their faces, and facial movements, are quite expressive when they become animated—otherwise, they can look like a deer in headlights most of the time. They may wave their arms around when they talk as well, almost as if they are dancing or giving a grand speech in their head at the same time that they are sitting down and talking to you about their day. The women are drawn to floral prints and very feminine pieces (sheer fabrics, summer dresses, scarves, subdued prints, etc) that allow them to move easily and comfortably. The less glamorous Pisces woman will wear jeans and a fleece jacket or t-shirt all the time (and some kind of creative addition, like a scarf around their head, a cool/different piece of jewelry, or a fun headband) or have a more hippy look (flowing printed dresses an earth tones), and the more glamorous will have no problem decking herself out in jewels, a fur coat, and a plunging neckline showing her curvy figure (think of Elizabeth Taylor when she was young). She uses her clothes to define herself as either a sexy siren or a natural beauty. The men love wearing blues and greens, and will often be in khakis or some other relaxed-wear. In business, they are always in sharp suits and have impeccable taste. They like to look good—it helps them charm the women more so that they can get what they want!

How to Attract a Pisces: have a kind heart, an interest in the arts and in their passion for the arts, and be attractive. Pisces are very visual and don’t like things that look messy or in disarray—it throws them off balance. If you are a good soul, with a strong will, they will fall madly in love with you. Typically, a Pisces is first attracted sexually, but will wait to get to know you better before really falling in love (Do you have the same interests? Are you spiritual? Do you respect yourself? Are you a family person?). Ironically, even though Pisces are attracted to pretty people, they are turned off by materialistic ones. A Pisces man loves an attractive, feminine woman, but if she spends too much money on shoes, bags, or clothes, or expects that he spends his money on her, he is quickly turned off. He will view her motives as selfish, materialistic, and greedy. A Pisces woman is always looking for a man who is put together and successful. She needs to feel secure and taken care of, and a well dressed man with a good bank account is definitely the route to her heart, even if he can be slightly selfish or self-involved, she falls for his charms. The general rule of thumb, however, is just to be a good, nice person—someone that a Pisces considers to be honest, virtuous, and loyal. A wicked sense of humor will also help you. Many Pisces are in the entertainment industry, notably as comedians or actors, and love making people laugh. You should take to heart that Pisces have very volatile emotions, as well. This means they can be obsessed with you one moment, and disinterested in the next. Be willing to ride their emotional waves (and sometimes, tsunamis) if you want to spend a lifetime together.

How to Lose a Pisces: being more emotionally erratic than they are, loud, or pretentious, is a great way to get rid of your Pisces. They may hang in there for a while because they dig a little bit of the crazy (they are crazy too, after all), but they will quickly swim upstream after a short while. They loathe nasty behavior, ugly people, negative personalities, and irresponsible partners. Female Pisces are looking for a strong, alpha male to protect them; male Pisces are looking for a feminine, faithful and kind-hearted alpha female to nourish them. It’s really that simple. So, if you don’t fall within the lines, you simply don’t matter to a Pisces.

The PISCES Best & Worst List

Best Qualities: intuitive, nurturing and soulful, Pisces have a way about them that makes people drawn to them. Whether it is because they are mysterious, seem innocent, or make people feel coddled and needed, they are like Mother Nature radiating warmth and harmony. Romantic and charming, Pisces easily find partners in their life to fulfill their needs. Their creativity is limitless, whether they are a male or a female. Male Pisces tend to focus more on cooking or music, and are therefore often found running a kitchen or writing their own music and/or playing an instrument of their choice. Their girlfriends have swooned over their emotional sensitivity and way with words—especially when they put the words in a romantic poem or song while playing their guitar. Female Pisces are more apt to write (poems, short stories) or be an artist or dancer. They have a strong need to use their sense of touch and their free spirit in their creative endeavors and are not afraid to express themselves through dancing, painting, or singing. Regardless of their sex, Pisces are extremely expressive on paper and often live in a fantasy world. Their artistic inclinations just make them very different from the average Joe (or Jane). Their emotions are so strong and finely tuned that, when they become too overwhelming, they can turn them into something beautiful, if they so desire. Inclined to spirituality and New Age beliefs, Pisces is a sign that is typically psychic and somewhat mystical. As the oldest sign of the Zodiac that is also connected astrologically to Jesus Christ, they have profound wisdom and beliefs in a higher power. Many Pisces are strongly linked to churches and religious leaders, and/or are involved in charitable works, volunteering, holistic healing, or counseling.

Worst Qualities: Pisces live in a fantasy world that makes it seem as if they are oh-so-mysterious (people can’t help but wonder “what ARE they thinking about?”), but the reality is that they are so confused about how they feel that they very rarely can make a decision about which mood they are in or which direction to go. Indecisiveness is a big challenge for Pisces and can sometimes render them immutable and left whining and throwing a tantrum because they simply can’t decide between hot and cold, happy or sad, left or right. As fickle as a child, their decisions and actions are at the beck and call of their mood de jour. Making a commitment to a decision, feeling, or idea can be excruciating for them and they end up delegating the decision to someone else. Pisces say that they hate hurting someone’s feelings, but the truth is that many of them get a sadistic kick out of hurting the ones they love. They can be completely self-absorbed and self-centered, so it is hard for them to strike a fine balance between making a decision that is best for them while still making it seem as if they are putting other people’s feelings into consideration. Violent tempers, mood swings, possessive, and addictive personalities are very common to Pisces. Many are apt to deal with depression, jealousies, and feelings of inadequacy or unexplained sadness. Sometimes living in their own fantasy world with their head in the clouds makes the landing on Earth a crash and burn reality. Pisces need to learn to not transfer their own feelings of unhappiness or inadequacy onto their loved ones, or they may end up terribly alone. Also, when a Pisces has made up their mind, they can be incredibly loyal to that decision, which can be a heavy burden on those who don’t agree.

Best Matches: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer, Scorpio

Taurus thrives in the home and needs to feel protected, secure, and loved. Taurus, after all, is in love with the idea of love—wishing that the world is full of romance and sex. In comes Pisces, who, with a wave of a wand, can make all their dreams seem true. Both signs are also drawn to the intensity of touch and are very ethereal. They aren’t afraid to explore their sexuality together and see what happens in the bedroom. Spiritual conversations, intense emotional bonds, and a sense of comfort comes easily when these two signs are paired together. They will be best friends and lovers, which is, after all, the sweetest thing. Famous Couples: Javier Bardem (Pisces) and Penelope Cruz (Taurus), Cindy Crawford (Pisces) and Randy Gerber (Taurus), Eva Longoria (Pisces) and Tony Parker (Taurus), Liza Minnelli (Pisces) and David Gest (Taurus)

Virgo is Pisces perfect astrological opposite. This is to say that they can either be a great couple, or a horrible one. While Pisces may find making a decision hard, Virgo is more apt to say “this is what you do and how you do it.” And when both are stuck for a decision, the over-analytical Virgo and the dreamlike Pisces can sit together for hours arriving at the best decision and exploring all the pro’s and con’s of the situation. Virgo enjoys Pisces mystical and seemingly innocent (and slightly neurotic) side; Pisces delights in Virgo’s purity and strength. Virgo is always reliable when it comes to Pisces because a Virgo always feels the need to protect or nurture their wounded partner. However, Virgo can easily become annoyed with Pisces’ inconsistencies and inability to make decisions. Pisces can feel over-analyzed and criticized by Virgo. The truth is that both are at fault here by simply being who they are. Famous Couples: Cindy Crawford (Pisces) and Richard Gere (Virgo), Emily Blunt (Pisces) and Michael Buble (Virgo)

Capricorn’s drive, stamina, and discipline provide the backbone that the Pisces has always been searching for. Capricorns know how to get things done and get them done right, especially in business and finance. They seldom question their actions and just go for it, something which a Pisces can’t help but admire. Also, since Pisces tends to spend money a bit more recklessly, they benefit greatly by Capricorn’s shrewd financial planning and investment advice. So what does the Pisces bring to the table? Capricorns tend to be aloof and not evolved emotionally speaking—these goats can be a bit too harsh and cold while climbing to the top of that mountain. That’s where Pisces comes in, softening the rough edges of the Capricorn and calming them down, telling them when they are being inappropriate, mean, or too damn cold-hearted. Famous Couples: Penny Lancaster (Pisces) and Rod Stewart (Capricorn), Christine Baumgartner (Pisces) and Kevin Costner (Capricorn), Pat Nixon (Pisces) and Richard Nixon (Capricorn)

Cancer will feel at home in Pisces deep emotional waters; these two literally are as happy as a crab (Cancer) and a fish (Pisces) swimming together in the vast ocean. They are both emotional, sensitive and moody, and feel as if they have found their perfect soul mate in each other. Whether it is staying at home for a nice evening by candlelight, or reading a book in the corner of the living room while sipping on a nightcap, these two simply enjoy each other’s comforting presence. Cancer is a very witty and driven sign, as is Pisces, and together their conversations will flow smoothly and easily. More importantly, neither sign is afraid to call the other out on their BS, and knows when to leave well enough alone. Their union will be mystical, and their bond intensive and somewhat possessive, but that’s how they both roll when it comes to love. At the very least, both of them will be able to understand each other’s emotional volatility. Famous Couples: Kurt Cobain (Pisces) and Courtney Love (Cancer), Johnny Cash (Pisces) and June Carter Cash (Cancer), Vanessa Williams (Pisces) and Rick Fox (Cancer)

Scorpio’s more intense, sensual qualities invigorate Pisces to feel more sexual and sensual—these two will certainly have a romantically charged relationship where feelings and emotions seem very heightened and magnified. Both are very spiritual signs and will be drawn to an alternative lifestyle together and will judge each other rarely, and love each other permanently. They may not marry, but they will happily spend the rest of their lives together. Intellectual stimulation and friendship rules this couple first and foremost, but a healthy physical attraction is definitely there. They both sense what the other needs (for Scorpio, they need space and freedom, especially from judgment; for Pisces, they need attention, coddling, and adoration). Famous Couples: Kurt Russell (Pisces) and Goldie Hawn (Scorpio), Bruce Willis (Pisces) and Demi Moore (Scorpio), Michael Bolton (Pisces) and Nicollette Sheridan (Scorpio), Tom Arnold (Pisces) and Roseanne (Scorpio), Julia Cameron (Pisces) and Martin Scorsese (Scorpio), Elizabeth Taylor (Pisces) and Richard Burton (Scorpio), Alan Greenspan (Pisces) and Andrea Mitchell (Scorpio)

Worst Matches: Gemini, Leo, Sagittarius, Pisces

Gemini’s mercurial wit and personality certainly charms the Pisces, who is mesmerized by Gemini’s social persona. Both signs are mutable, meaning they are able to adapt to the energy or changes in a room/environment. Their flexibility will be essential in making this pair last. Pisces may want to cling or attach themselves to Gemini’s rollercoaster ride—and it may last for a short while. That is, until the Gemini is tired of being bored by Pisces’ sensitive or possessive nature, desire to stay home, or depressive/quiet moods. The only thing Pisces would love to chat about non-stop is the way they are feeling about a situation, which is probably the quickest way to lose a Gemini who can’t STAND to talk about their feelings all the time and would probably prefer talking to a wall instead. Pisces can be too unreliable and unstable for Gemini, who needs a partner who will ground them and their flighty twins. That being said, if a Gemini has been wounded in love before, and craves a nurturing and committed soul, a Pisces may just fit the bill. Famous Couples: Seal (Pisces/Aquarius cusp) and Heidi Klum (Gemini), Drew Barrymore (Pisces) and Justin Long (Gemini), Ivana Trump (Pisces) and Donald Trump (Gemini), Drew Barrymore (Pisces) and Fabrizio Moretti (Gemini), Callista Gingrich (Pisces) and Newt Gingrich (Gemini)

Sagittarius and Pisces, at some point, will find themselves together. It doesn’t normally last long, and it normally doesn’t end well, but nonetheless, it is a trap they often fall into. Sagittarius falls for Pisces unworldly and imaginative persona. They are so intriguing and ethereal, that the Sagittarius feels challenged to “capture” the Pisces. It is important to note that this pairing is more common when the man is the Sagittarius and the woman is the Pisces. The female Pisces will fall for the charming Sagittarius man who is adventurous, funny and goal-oriented. As she is typically weak on those traits, she feels incredibly drawn to this “foreign” energy and wants to be a part of it for a while. Likewise, the Sagittarius man is humbled by the emotional, sensitive, and creative Pisces woman—she seems so delicate and charming and perfect. That is, until she starts crying because she doesn’t have his attention, or when she complains he doesn’t love her or show his emotions enough. The Sag gets annoyed by the wishy-washy Pisces and her inability to make a decision. Angers flare and the Pisces woman throws a bucket of water over the enraged fiery Sagittarius…and then it is over. Famous Couples: Chris Webber (Pisces) and Tyra Banks (Sag)

Leo is sexual and shows love and emotions easily (and demands a lot of attention), so at the very least, a Pisces and a Leo will not worry about expressing their feelings accordingly. Since Leo likes being in charge and telling others what to do, and Pisces is looking to be told what to do, this pair can actually work. HOWEVER, Leo hates whining and hates being held back by emotionally weakness, such as manipulation, depression, or moodiness. And Pisces do that oh-so-well. As long as Leo can handle Pisces’ emotional persona, and Pisces won’t take Leo’s bossiness as a symbol of domination, they may find love together. At the very least, they will find great sex. Famous Couples: Justin Beiber (Pisces) and Selena Gomez (Leo/Cancer Cusp), Tea Leoni (Pisces) and David Duchovny (Leo), Elizabeth Taylor (Pisces) and Eddie Fisher (Leo), Desi Arnaz (Pisces) and Lucille Ball (Leo), Lauren Graham (Pisces) and Peter Krause (Leo)

Two Pisces together is a disaster. Too many emotions, too little motivation, and far too little direction, leaves these two a complete mess together. Pisces needs a more practical counterpart (or backbone) to make it in this world. Famous Couples: Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig

Surprisingly Good Matches: Aquarius, Aries, Libra

Aquarius has a natural humanitarian instinct, which appeals to the nurturing Pisces. Yet, these two can have a limited fuse for one another. Aquarius tends to be too unemotional or unstable for the sensitive Pisces. While the Aquarius wants to be out and about, socialize and meet new people, the Pisces hates crowds or social events and prefers to be a loner and either stay at home, or watch and observe the crowd. Pisces do better in a one-on-one capacity with someone they know, and nothing, NOTHING, is as boring to an Aquarian as someone who doesn’t know how to carry a conversation with a complete stranger. Aquarius also tends to be a hard worker and puts in long hours at the office, always focusing on making money or vast improvements in the world. While Pisces respects this, they tend to thrive more on balance. Where they will understand one another is in trying to help mankind improve itself. They may pursue it from different angles (Aquarius thinks big, whereas Pisces thinks on a smaller scale), but pursue it they will. Both signs are incredibly charming, so they can channel their flirtatious personas into a very sexy relationship IF they are willing to understand one another’s differences and realize the treasure they have found in one another. If Aquarius is smart enough to acknowledge how lucky they are to have a soulful Pisces in their life to calm them down, and if Pisces is willing to admit they need Aquarius to motivate them to be the best person they can be, then they wouldn’t be such a bad couple after all. They could be great, in fact. Famous Couples: Jessica Biel (Pisces) and Justin Timberlake (Aquarius), Rachel Weisz (Pisces) and Darren Aronofsky (Aquarius), Elizabeth Taylor (Pisces) and John Warner (Aquarius), Stedman Graham (Pisces) and Oprah Winfrey (Aquarius), Paul Newman (Aquarius) and Joanne Woodward (Pisces)

Aries can be very superficial and needs to be in the spotlight at all times. Since Pisces can be turned off by excessive material wealth, this can be a weird match. BUT, if the man is the Aries in this picture, and the female is a Pisces, then there is some hope. A female Pisces loves being taken care of and loves feeling rich, decked out in jewels, fur coats, and expensive décor. She almost has a childlike delight at feeling like the princess in her own fairytale world. The Aries man thrives in providing her all of these things, especially since she looks so great in them and she is so appreciative of these gifts. He provides her not only with material security, but also a sense of adventure. If she doesn’t get jealous of his flirtatious character, and he doesn’t get bothered by her clingy behavior, they can really work well together. Famous Couples: Freddie Prinze Jr. (Pisces) and Sarah Michelle Gellar (Aries), Mitt Romney (Pisces) and Ann Romney (Aries)

Libra is all about harmony, balance, aesthetic pleasure, and peace. For this reason, Pisces can’t help but feel attracted to the world their charming Libra has created for them. As long as Pisces isn’t bothered by Libra’s social personality and constant over-analyzing, and Pisces doesn’t pull their infamous bouts of rage or temper tantrums, these two can co-exist very happily together. They just need to understand that their temperaments and personalities are different—but not different enough to give them a shot at trying it out. The Libra is a go-getter, planner and motivator. All of which are Pisces’ weakest traits. The Pisces is emotionally thoughtful, purposeful and sensitive, all of which can sometimes be Libra’s weakest traits. This pair can be a ying to the other’s yang if the stars are aligned correctly when they meet. Famous Couples: Chris Martin (Pisces) and Gwyneth Paltrow (Libra), Jon Bon Jovi (Pisces) and Dorothea Hurley (Libra), Dana Reeve (Pisces) and Christopher Reeve (Libra), Joel Madden (Pisces) and Hilary Duff (Libra)

Is that Cupid's arrow in the stars???

So, another Valentine's day is upon us. A time of love, romance, chocolates, flowers and sex. Or, for those pessimists out there, it's just another Hallmark holiday (what are you? A depressing Scorpio or analytical Virgo? enjoy the holiday!).

As a homage to the holiday that actually celebrates one of the bloodiest massacres in Italian history (and here you thought it was a fun story like an actual idiot who dressed like a Cupid and shot an arrow in his lover's butt to get her attention and gain her undying love, because after all, that makes perfect sense...), I thought the best way to pay my respects would be to talk about famous couples through history and list them in terms of their astrological compatibility.

While you will note that there are more astrologically compatible couples who made it than not, I also made a point of listing those couples who made it and are NOT compatible just to prove one of my main points: don't be afraid to date out of your astro box!!!


So incompatible, thank God they didn't kill one another:

Andre Agassi (April 29) & Brooke Shields (May 31)
-Poor Taurus Andre & Gemini Brooke. While they made an honest effort of it for a long time, it just didn't work out in the long run. While Taurus and Gemini are known for their surprising compatibility, these two are a perfect example of how neighboring signs just don't have an easy time of it. However, apparently Mr. Agassi loves his Gemini's. After he and Brooke bit the dust, he moved on to love and happiness with longtime friend, and tennis pro, Steffi Graf, who also happens to be a Gemini (June 14). Looks like Andre has a type...

Tom Cruise (July 3) & Nicole Kidman (June 20)
-Just as neighboring signs Andre and Brooke didn't make it, neither did Cancer Tom and Gemini Nicole. As a rule, Gemini and Cancer never make it. Gemini wants more thrills and mental wit, Cancer wants more pandering and security. Guess neither of them could see eye-to-eye on love...or maybe that's because Nicole was just too tall for poor ole' Tom. Luckily, he seems to have moved on with Sagittarius Katie Holmes (Dec 18). Time will only tell whether this couple, who are even more incompatible astrologically than Tom & Nicole, will make it.

Reese Witherspoon (March 22) & Ryan Phillippe (Sept 10)
-Aries Reese is too ambitious and bold for analytical Virgo Ryan. Her Aries Fire scorched his Earth Virgo self, and these two didn't stand a chance. While Virgo can admire Aries' drive and stamina, ultimately the Virgo doesn't feel needed by such a powerhouse, leaving the Virgo feeling useless. That is never a good place for a Virgo to be.

Donald Trump (June 14) & Ivanka Trump (Oct 30)
-Gemini Donald Trump and Scorpio Ivanka Trump survived for a long time. Sure, Scorpio's intense nature and mysterious qualities probably fascinated the childlike, never-wants-to-grow-up Gemini, but in the long run, we all do grow up...and Gemini's hate growing old. Guess the Donald decided to beat Father Time by going after younger women...and got beautiful and young Taurus Melania. Whether this Taurus/Gemini match survives, only time will tell. Perhaps Andre Agassi could give Donald a few tips.

Justin Timberlake (Jan 31) & Cameron Diaz (Aug 30)
-Aquarius Justin is crazy, wild and full of imagination and life, always wanting to be in the limelight and learning new things. While Virgo Cameron was probably thrilled to be a part of the ride, and has her own quirky Virgo charm which captivated Justin for several years, ultimately, the Aquarius/Virgo differences came through when Cameron wanted marriage and kids and Justin was too busy bringing sexy back with other women.

Britney Spears (Dec 2) & Kevin Federline (March 21)
-What a mess when Sagittarius free-spirited Britney teamed up with cuspy Pisces/Aries K-Fed. While these two had an intense attraction to one another (probably when K-Fed acted more of an Aries than a Pisces), K-Fed's water Pisces self washed out Britney's fire and drove her crazy...literally.


Most incompatible Astro Signs Couples that made it:

Madonna (Aug 16) & Guy Ritchie (Sept 10)
-Madonna is the prototypical Leo, needing attention, drama and passion in her life...but sometimes that made her love life too wild and crazy when all she really wanted was to feel adored by someone special. Who better than reliable, dependable and witty Virgo Guy? Virgo's and Leo's, while incompatible, are two neighboring signs that often find one another AND stay together.

Ronald Reagan (Feb 6) & Nancy Davis (July 6)
-Aquarius Ronald Reagan found love at first sight with Cancer Nancy Davis. One of America's most charming love stories, Ronald was known for writing numerous passionate love letters to his wife Nancy during his years in office. His charming personality and strong communication skills certainly made Nancy feel loved, adored and secure...all that a Cancer ever really wants in life.

Oprah Winfrey (Jan 29) & Stedman Graham (March 6)
-Aquarius Oprah and Pisces Stedman have been together for like, 20 years, and are still going strong. While they were engaged and planning to get married, those plans eventually dissolved, but no matter: they are still together and live like a married couple. Oprah's humanitarian Aquarius self is obviously something that altruistic and peace-minding Stedman loves...after all, he is the evolved and compassionate Pisces man who wants to help mankind by bringing peace and love to us all. Who better than Oprah?

Julia Roberts (Oct 28) & Daniel Moder (Jan 31)
-Scorpio Julia Roberts had to wait a long time before falling in love with Aquarius cameraman Daniel Moder, whom she is now happily married too with several odd-named children. After years of staying with incompatible Sagittarius Benjamin Bratt (Dec 16), Julia moved on to creative and inspiring Danny, who is drawn by Julia's magnetic personality and charm...as only a Scorpio woman can master!

Jennifer Lopez (July 24) & Marc Anthony (Sept 16)
-Diva Leo Queen J-Lo went through many public heartbreaks before ending up with longtime friend and admirer, Virgo Marc Anthony. Perhaps J-Lo took a page from Madonna's book and went for stable Virgo after such a rocky past???

Kevin Bacon (July 8) & Kyra Sedgwick (Aug 19)
-One of Hollywood's most successful couples, Cancer Kevin and Leo Kyra prove that you don't have to be compatible astrologically to make a marriage work. Cancer's and Leo's are a hard match indeed, but it seems that Kevin's emotional homebody self makes Kyra's Leo personality feel needed and wanted just enough to keep their love footloose and fancy free.

Lucille Ball (Aug 6) & Desi Arnaz (March 2)
-No one can deny that Pisces Desi loved his Leo Lucy. This couple was infamous for their passion and hot and cold romance, but obviously the drama between these two kept their love a never-ending series of excitement and fun.

Edith Piaf (Dec 19) & Marcel Cerdan (July 22)
-Sagittarius Edith dubbed Cancer Marcel as "the love of my life." And while this love affair ended tragically with Marcel's airplane crash death en route to see Edith, their love inspired Edith's music and famous love song "La vie en rose."


Awards for most compatible Astro Signs Couples that didn't make it:

Elizabeth Taylor (Feb 27)& Richard Burton (Nov 10)
-Sure, Pisces Liz Taylor and Scorpio Richard Burton are more astrologically compatible than most, after all, a Pisces and a Scorpio go together like bread & butter, but that a marriage did not make (once, twice and three times over). Nonetheless, these two couldn't seem to stay away from one another, marking their passionate love affair of decades as one of Hollywood's best.

Alec Baldwin (April 3) & Kim Basinger (Dec 8)
-We all know how tragic the marriage between firey Aries Alec and Sagittarius Kim turned out to be. While these two are incredibly compatible in astrology, it turns out love, or the intense passion these two shared, wasn't enough. Now that the fires have cooled between these two, all that is left is a scorched affair.

Jennifer Aniston (Feb 11) & Brad Pitt (Dec 18)
-Aquarius Jennifer and Sagittarius Brad could have had it all: a great looking couple, both independently famous and wealthy. But quirky and neurotic Aquarius Jennifer wasn't enough to dull Sagittarius Brad's wanderlust self, who moved on to an even MORE compatible match for his Sag self...but since it is too good of a match to be included in this list, check out more on the list below why he and Angie are a match made in astro heaven.

Jessica Simpson (July 10) & Nick Lachey (Nov 9)
-Cancer Jessica and Scorpio Nick had it all going for them: hot, famous and young, and as compatible as peanut butter and jelly (or chicken's and sea's). It's hard for a Scorpio and a Cancer to not make it, this combo is just too perfect...but as Scorpio Prince Charles and Cancer Diana Spencer learned, sometimes these things just don't work out, no matter how perfect it seems.

Bruce Willis (March 19) & Demi Moore (Nov 11); Ashton Kutcher (Feb 7)
-Pisces Bruce and Scorpio Demi are yet another failed tragedy a la Liz Taylor and Richard Burton. While Bruce and Demi had a good run: long marriage, happy children, and a lot of love, it didn't last. Scorpio's crave passion and intensity, and often find themselves unhappy with life when things are running too smoothly. So she moved on to Aquarius Ashton. While Aquarius and Scorpio aren't compatible, as you can see from these lists, they often find themselves together. C'est la vie. But, on a happy note, Bruce and Demi's friendship and connection has not died: they are noted in Hollywood as the most successful couple to break-up and still make it work.

Whitney Houston (Aug 9) & Bobby Brown (Feb 5)
-Leo Whitney and Aquarius Bobby's relationship was nothing short of a train wreck, almost as bad (if not worse) than Britney and K-Fed, but the difference is that Whitney and Bobby had astrology on their side. Guess that is what kept Whitney proclaiming "I will always love you" to Bobby.

Woody Allen (Dec 1) & Mia Farrow (Feb 9)
-Sagittarius Woody Allen is famous for having said that his relationship with Aquarius Mia was the stuff dreams were made of...where they could wave to one another from opposite ends of the same park and be perfectly content and in love. Guess all that distance continued to come in between them, as these two didn't make it and wanderlust Woody moved on...to the adopted daughter he raised.

Elizabeth Hurley (June 10) & Hugh Grant (Sept 9)
-It was a tough decision to place Gemini Liz and Virgo Hugh under this category because many astro books will tell you that a Gemini and a Virgo are not an ideal match. I beg to differ. Gemini and Virgo are both ruled by Mercury, who delights in witty banter and mental lust. Obviously this worked quite well for this couple for well over a decade...until Hugh made a bad error in judgment and Liz couldn't forgive him. After all, one of the downsides of such a mentally charged couple is just that: if your heart can't convince your over-active mind to make it work, then it won't.


So Compatible...so in Love:

Brad Pitt (Dec 18) & Angelina Jolie (June 4)
-When a Sagittarius man meets a Gemini woman, it is just inevitable that they end up together. It's like wind and fire meeting and fueling one another to become more powerful. Literally. Fire sign Sagittarius Brad and Air sign Gemini Angie are perfect for one another: mental and physical attraction, same values and goals, and a passion for excitement and adventure, these two have everything it takes to make it work. Their love of travel, different cultures and learning will never leave them bored.

Antonio Banderas (August 10) & Melanie Griffith (August 9)
-Many thought that Antonio and Melanie wouldn't make it...guess they didn't bother to find out they had something very strong in common: they are both Leo's. When two passionate Leo's come together, it is hard for the other to walk away. Both doting, sexual and passionate towards the other, this relationship is sure to last.

Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas (both Sept 25)
-Like Antonio & Melanie, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas know a little something about falling in love with the same sign. Not only are Catherine & Michael both Libra's, they are both born on the same day...September 25th...exactly 25 years apart from one another. While the age gap is certainly considerable, loving and harmonious Libra is a sign that doesn't care about numbers. Libra's fall in love with love and will stop at nothing to make it work. Years of marriage and happiness have made Catherine & Michael a top Hollywood couple.

Marc Antony (Jan 14) & Cleopatra (Jan)
-One of the most famous love affairs in history, Marc Antony and Cleopatra were so passionate for one another that their love story can be found in every history book printed. Like most ambitious (and often obsessive and possessive) Capricorns, Marc stopped at nothing to gain Cleopatra's love. Guess she wasn't scared by Marc's bold Capricorn self...it seems that she was a Capricorn too! While no official birth date is given for her, she was born either at the end of December or beginning of January, making her a solid Cappie counterpart to her famous lover.

Ben Affleck (Aug 15) & Jennifer Gardner (April 17)
-Leo Ben Affleck failed many times in love, notably with fellow fire sign Leo Jennifer Lopez, before finding true love with another fire sign Jennifer...Gardner, who is an Aries. These two were friends for years, even working together on a movie, until they were free and able to get together. And when they did, things moved fast. Now they live in their own perfect astrological world with their cute little daughter, Violet.

John Travolta (Feb 18) & Kelly Preston (Oct 13)
-When Libra Kelly Preston said she first saw Aquarius John Travolta on Grease, she told her friends "I am going to marry that man." And she did; proving that when an Aquarius meets a Libra, nothing works as smoothly and beautifully.

Tom Hanks (July 9) & Rita Wilson (Oct 26)
-Cancer Tom Hanks and Scorpio Rita Wilson are perhaps dubbed the best couple in Hollywood. They are so in love and happy that people don't even remember a time when Tom and Rita weren't together. Tom said when he met Rita it was love at first sight, even though he was still married to someone else! That marriage quickly dissolved, but his and Rita's is still going strong. Proving that Cancer's and Scorpio's are almost always "in it to win it."


Goldie Hawn (Nov 21) & Kurt Russell (March 17)
-Scorpio Goldie Hawn and Pisces Kurt Russell are Hollywood's Power Couple; staying together for decades now and still keeping the passion strong. No small wonder either when you pair a sexual Scorpio and an ethereal Pisces...these two signs are so in-tune with one another that nothing can shake this love, or make them want to jump ship anytime soon.

Prince Charles (Nov 14) & Camilla Parker Bowles (July 17)
-As mentioned above, Cancer's and Scorpio's rarely fail. But as Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey learned that sometimes it can...so did Lady Diana Spencer (July 1) and Prince Charles. While their love affair ended in tragedy, Scorpio Prince Charles WAS in love with a Cancer woman all his life...Camilla Parker Bowles. After years of being separated from the stuff that romance novels are made of, these two finally made it back to one another and defied a monarchy by getting married. Fairytale endings do sometimes come true...

Warren Beatty (March 30) & Annette Bening (May 29)
-Aries playboy Warren Beatty had many passionate love affairs before meeting Gemini Annette Bening on the set of "Bugsy." When a Gemini and an Aries meet, flirtation and passion tends to follow. These two not only made it work, they have made it last: after all these years, they still have a strong and passionate relationship.

Ozzy Osbourne (Dec 3) & Sharon Arden (Oct 9)
-We all watched crazy Sagittarius Ozzy scream for his Libra Sharon on their popular reality TV show. Libra's are so wonderful at bringing balance and harmony to even the most deranged situations, which, as Sharon Osbourne proves, is no small feat.

David Arquette (Sept 8) & Courtney Cox (June 15)
-While Virgo Hugh and Gemini Liz didn't make it, this Virgo/Gemini pairing has. Virgo David Arquette and Gemini Courtney Cox aren't only still married and in love, they are also parents to a cute baby Coco and partners in business. Since Gemini's and Virgo's love mental compatibility, working together makes sure that these two always have something to talk about.


So there you have it. The Love 411 on famous couples who had it, made it, lost it, and others who we thank God for not keeping it. While I encourage "dating out of your astro box", the above lists can't deny one glaring fact...it is much easier to win in the game of love when your signs are compatible.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!
