Trine matches are often said to be the Universe's favorites, the most propitious blend of similarity and difference there can be. Aquarius and Libra are both Air signs, so they share a natural inclination towards conceptual and social matters.
Early conversations are likely to be delightfully convivial. Air signs can be somewhat fickle or acerbic when stressed, but these two kindred spirits should be able to steer effortlessly away from any hints of unpleasantness. Libra's patient judiciousness and wide-eyed enthusiasm are likely to appeal immediately to the intellectual Aquarius. Meanwhile, Aquarius' concern for universal truths will resonate deeply with Libra's lifelong quest to improve their self-knowledge and decision-making. Given an opportunity to grow together, however, these two may discover that the tantalizing possibilities of early meetings were if anything an underestimate of their true potential.
Air signs are accustomed to finding social interaction relatively easy. Yet the modalities here are beautifully aligned. The Cardinal energy of Libra represents the Air element at its most pure, and this eager intellectualism forms a natural complement to Aquarius' Fixed energy, with its focus on achieving real and lasting wisdom. Traits that can cause problems in other contexts, such as the unorthodoxy of Aquarius or the irrepressibility of Libra, will in this relationship not merely be tolerated but hugely appreciated. Indeed, these compatible souls may come to feel as if with each other they can truly be themselves, their connection growing ever stronger the more they surrender to vulnerability and intimacy.
Whatever the context, and whether for brief or enduring periods of time, this connection offers to enrich both parties' lives long into the future.

Olivia Newton-John (9/26/1948, Libra Rat), John Travolta (2/18/1954, Aquarius Horse) : The two actors displayed legendary on-screen chemistry in Grease and developed a lasting friendship. Asked about why they did not become involved romantically, Newton-John explained, "I think it was good, because I think it kept the tension there and the chemistry. It might have been a real disaster had we decided to date, or we had a falling out or something. So, I think it was just as well that it didn’t happen. But we’re still great friends." Travolta has revealed that he advocated for Newton-John to be cast in the role, saying, "There was only one person on this planet I could see as Sandy, and that person was Olivia Newton-John. I told the producers."
Jason Alexander (9/23/1959, Libra Pig), Daena E. Title (2/14/1957, Aquarius Rooster) : The actor and actor/artist have been married since 1981 and have two children together. Alexander has described their courtship, saying, "I had $1000 to my name and for our first date, I wasn’t sure what she would want to do, so I took out all the money from my bank account." They moved in together three weeks later.
Felicia Farr (10/4/1932, Libra Monkey), Jack Lemmon (2/8/1925, Aquarius Ox) : The two actors from Hollywood's Golden Age were married from 1962 until Lemmon's death in 2001. Quoted in Michael Freedland's biography, Jack Lemmon, Lemmon described: "Before I met [Felicia], I never got angry. I was all bottled up, constricted, emotionally. She opened me up. For the first time in my life I could get violently mad and I could feel an attraction that I had never felt for any human being. She is so alive, so open to everything. She drew me out of myself. She made me care—about poverty, about politics, about the rotten air we breathe."
Sacha Baron Cohen (10/13/1971, Libra Pig), Isla Fisher (2/3/1976, Aquarius Dragon) : The actor and actor/comedian were together from around 2001 until 2023. They married in 2010 and have three children. Fisher has described: "Maybe I'm sick and twisted, but I tend to find [Cohen] really funny. He always surprises me in the best possible way. I'm proud of him for taking risks and putting himself out there as an artist. I think once we start censoring everything, well, what will there be left to look forward to?"
Snoop Dogg (10/20/1971, Libra Pig), Dr. Dre (2/18/1965, Aquarius Snake) : The two rappers share a close friendship. They famously collaborated on Dre's debut solo album, The Chronic (1992), which proved to be a catalyst for both of their later successes. Dre described in 2018: "Back in the day, Snoop came to me at a very low point in my life. I had no money for food. I didn't even have furniture in my house...Snoop is always there for me, ready to work, and constantly motivating and pushing me and making me believe I could do it. I mean, I could always hear his voice in my head...I cannot imagine where I'd be in my life if I had not collaborated with Snoop...[We] became family...We always show up for each other no matter what that is. Just imagine having a person like that in your life for almost 30 years."
John Mayer (10/16/1977, Libra Snake), Jennifer Aniston (2/11/1969, Aquarius Monkey) : The actor and musician formed a high-profile couple during the late 2000s and have continued to speak fondly about each other. Aniston has described, "It’s funny when you hit a place in a relationship and you both realise, we maybe need to do something else, but you still really, really love each other. It’s painful...I deeply, deeply care about him; we talk, we adore one another. And that’s where it is." Mayer asked an interviewer, "Have you ever loved somebody, loved her completely, but had to end the relationship for life reasons?"

Much like the elements in Western astrology, the Chinese zodiac is predicated on four Trine Families of signs. The family that comprises the Dragon and Rat (and their sibling-in-arms the Monkey) is classically the most inventive and vigorous of the four. The energy here is relentlessly high-octane, impatient to conceptualize the next breakthrough invention, anxious to see their daring schemes translated into brazen reality.
The Dragon is a stunningly combustible legend, generally at their most comfortable showcasing their glorious talents for the widest possible audience. They are likely to be quickly seduced by the charms and brilliant ambitions of the resourceful Rat. The Rat, meanwhile, ever shrewd, and quite happy to step into or out of the limelight themselves depending on what suits their clever purposes, is likely to seize immediately on the huge potential the Dragon represents for effective and concerted action. Most importantly, while a certain pragmatism may influence early contacts between these two, they are likely to find themselves almost immediately swept up in spontaneous joy.
Irrepressible and with talent to burn, in many quarters these signs can be easily bored or difficult to please. In each other's company, however, there will never be a dull moment! Don't be surprised if there is a sense of, "At last!", as these two finally find themselves free to unleash their prodigious skills in ways that are both exhilarating and productive.
As time passes by, seemingly in a pleasureful, constructive instant, the Rat and Dragon will probably find to their surprise that they have already built the foundation for a lifelong and deeply rewarding relationship.

Donna Summer (12/31/1948, Capricorn Rat), Giorgio Moroder (4/26/1940, Taurus Dragon) : The collaboration between singer Summer and producer Moroder during the 1970s and 80s has been credited as a pivotal influence on the history of dance music. Moroder described in 2023, "[Summer and I] were close, even though at the beginning of our relationship, so much of our time was divided, me mostly in Munich and her mostly in America after her success...[I] saw her often, during the last years of her life as she lived in the same building as I did in Los Angeles. We got close again before she died...If she ever believed that I was something of a mentor, that was OK, considering the years that we worked so closely together...I think that our musical relationship was really, really good. She believed in what Pete [Bellotte, Moroder’s longtime songwriting partner] and I were doing, and co-wrote the songs with us, while I did most of the music. She was very much involved. It was less of a singer-producer relationship and more like three guys working on songs together. That camaraderie had much to do with the success of our music."
Jean-Michel Basquiat (12/22/1960, Capricorn Rat), Andy Warhol (8/6/1928, Leo Dragon) : In spite of a 32 year age gap, the two famous artists developed a close and intimate relationship in the art scene of 1980s New York. Warhol described how after one of their first meetings Basquiet created an artwork of the two together: "He went home and within two hours a painting was back, still wet, of him and me together. And I mean, just getting to Christie Street must have taken an hour. He told me his assistant painted it."
Katy Perry (10/25/1984, Scorpio Rat), Orlando Bloom (1/13/1977, Capricorn Dragon) : The singer/songwriter and actor have dated since 2016, been engaged since 2019, and have a daughter together. In an Instagram tribute to Bloom on his 45th birthday in 2022, Perry posted: "Thank you for being a constant compass, an unwavering anchor and bringing joi[e] de vivre into every room you walk in. You are the love and light of my life."
Elsie Hewitt (3/5/1996, Pisces Rat), Benny Blanco (3/8/1988, Pisces Dragon) : The producer and model/actor quarantined together during the Covid-19 lockdowns in 2020. Hewitt and Blanco offered glimpses into their playful and intimate domestic life in a series of YouTube videos Hewitt created showing them preparing and cooking meals together.
John Belushi (1/24/1949, Aquarius Rat), Dan Aykroyd (7/1/1952, Cancer Dragon) : The two actors were long term collaborators, close friends and colleagues who worked together on iconic sets such as Saturday Night Live and The Blues Brothers. Forty years after Belushi's tragic death, Aykroyd commented in an interview, "I think of him every day."
LeBron James (12/30/1984, Capricorn Rat), Kevin Durant (9/29/1988, Libra Dragon) : The two world-famous basketballers jockeyed for position as potentially the best player in the NBA during the early 2020s. Despite their rivalry on court, James and Durant are close friends who are quick to defend each other, especially against media criticism. Durant stated in 2021: "Anything LeBron does, you guys talk about like it is breaking news. He can’t do anything. He has to play every game, he has to average close to a triple-double, he has to be a perfect person, because you will say everything about him."
