Compatibility overview
A fiery match, if ever there was one! There are some terrific possibilities here, with so much similar energy at play. All own-sign matches, however, are faced with the over-abundance versus deficit conundrum. This challenge can be keenly felt when two Aries join together, owing to the great potency and sometimes temperamental nature of this sign.

In the Western zodiac, two natives of the same sign always share the same element, which in the case of Aries is Fire. A shared element is always an important gift for a relationship, because it provides an essential bedrock of shared attitudes and values. And Fire, of course, is the most explosively intense element of all. Two Aries will not need to tell each other the kinds of great adventures they think are important—they will already know!
Early meetings between these two are likely to find them swept up in a glorious communion of idealism, aspiration and ambition. Sparks could, almost literally, fly! Sexual attraction is strongly implicated, but strong first impressions of all kinds are likely, as Aries’ ruling planet Mars governs passion and desire, as well as action and conquest. As initial enthusiasm wanes, these two will need to negotiate how to manage their respective demands and drives. A pair of Aries share the Cardinal modality of Fire, so there is none of the softening influence that a mixture of modalities brings to a relationship. Indeed, as the first sign in the zodiac wheel, Aries could be described as the most Cardinal sign, whose compulsion to surge in exciting new directions is the most unbridled.
For two Aries together, questions will inevitably arise around how to manage their respective and ambitions and thirsts for adventure. Can they function as two stars, equally, side-by-side? How will they decide as a duo to prioritize between different projects that seem earth-shatteringly important to each of them? Perceived slights or selfishness could well be met with rage or miserableness. Indeed, the key to harnessing the potential of Aries' shared Fire element may be to establish independent orbits, from which each party can return to enjoying the inspirational aspects of the partnership, without feeling that their own vitality is threatened.

Nancy Pelosi (3/26/1940, Aries Dragon), Paul Pelosi (4/15/1940, Aries Dragon) : The first woman elected Speaker of the US House of Representatives and her businessman husband have been married since 1963. They have five children and nine grandchildren. Nancy Pelosi described in 2014: "A successful marriage is a decision. You decide it's going to work. You can't always be there, but you have to be there enough. And you have to make sure you are where you're needed most. Sometimes it's here, sometimes it's there; sometimes it's a tie and you have to prioritize. But it's always a decision. My husband and I met in college. We couldn't have thought of every possible thing back then. But here we are. We just had our 50th wedding anniversary. It's worked.
Eddie Murphy (4/3/1961, Aries Ox), Martin Lawrence (4/16/1965, Aries Snake) : The two actors appeared together in the films Boomerang (1992) and Life (1995). In 2021, Lawrence tweeted a photo of the two in costume, writing: "From driving all night to catch [Murphy's] show as a fan to becoming brothas and puttin in work. Truly an honor." The two have recently engaged in friendly banter about a romance between Murphy's son and Lawrence's daughter, with Murphy saying: "My daughter just got married, and I had to pay — really had to pay. You have to do the same, Martin. Don’t try to switch it up — don’t try to change no s—, do no Hollywood switch. You’re paying for the wedding. If it goes down, Martin is paying. And the wedding better be wonderful."
Lady Gaga (3/28/1986, Aries Tiger), Elton John (3/25/1947, Aries Pig) : The two legendary singers formed a strong friendship after they performed together at the Grammy awards in 2010, with Lady Gaga later becoming godmother to Elton's two children (with husband David Furnish). Lady Gaga has described: "Elton’s always really challenged me to take care of my artistry and to really take care of myself. And I really, really honor that about him. He is so, so uniquely special. And I cannot tell you how instrumental in my life he’s been to showing me that you can go all the way in life and…be authentic and be you and do good things in the world and take care of yourself and be there. He’s such an inspiration."
Cobie Smulders (4/3/1982, Aries Dog), Taran Killam (4/1/1982, Aries Dog) : The two actors have been married since 2012 and have two children. Smulders described in 2019: "I’m a very lucky woman. This magic happened 14 years ago. We’ve been together since we were 22 years young. We were babies and we survived our 20s together — I don’t know how that’s possible, but we did. It’s crazy."
Sarah Jessica Parker (3/25/1965, Aries Snake), Matthew Broderick (3/21/1962, Aries Tiger) : These two popular actors have been married since 1997. Said Parker in 2016, "I know this sounds nuts, but we have lives that allow us to be away and come back together."
David Hyde Pierce (4/3/1959, Aries Pig), Brian Hargrove (4/2/1956, Aries Monkey) : The two actors have been together for almost 40 years and married in 2008. Hyde Pierce described: "When Brian and I were first together, we were actors, we had the same agents, and we just ran into each other at auditions. We liked each other. We did not know at that time that either one of us was gay, and we just hung out as best friends. That went on for many months. Eventually, we figured it out. I've always felt that the fact that the relationship was built on friendship first is part of the reason why we've been together for 39 years."

Like the elements in Western astrology, the four Trine Families that are central to Eastern astrology divide naturally into two compatible pairs. One such pair comprises the family of the Horse (with the Dog and Tiger) and the family of the Rabbit (with the Pig and Sheep). The Horse and Rabbit may not be the most attention-grabbing match between these two families, but they still profit from the auspicious surrounding energy.
It's not always obvious, given their swashbuckling, go-it-alone character, but the Horse is an idealist at heart. The sensitivity and artistry of the Rabbit thus appeal greatly to the Horse's core values. The Rabbit's gentle nature can also put the Horse at ease, helping them to relax and open up in a way they seldom allow themselves with other signs. The Rabbit, meanwhile, can be easily rattled or disturbed on their own. The Horse's independent spirit fortifies the Rabbit, making them less vulnerable to criticism or drama. This frees the Rabbit to pursue their talents with an unperturbed mind, at peace with the world.
These two will need to keep an eye out for distance between them occasionally. Mutual admiration need not always translate into the strongest alliance. Both parties should make sure the other knows just how much they are valued or loved. The Horse and Rabbit also need to maintain the protection the relationship provides. The Horse is by nature more forceful and independent-minded, and can be selfish or blunt. If outside influences, insensitivity, or neglect are allowed to threaten the cocoon-like quality of this relationship, problems may ricochet around without resolution, especially for the more delicate Rabbit.
Fortunately, the underlying positive energy here means that strategies to avoid potential challenges are likely to work well. This is a relationship that may function best with each party having their own sphere to work in, then joining together to enjoy the special connection they share. Ultimately, these two are likely to recognize and trust in the goodness in the other's heart, which can be a cornerstone of a lasting, nourishing, and inspiring bond.

Taika Waititi (8/16/1975, Leo Rabbit), Rita Ora (11/26/1990, Sagittarius Horse) : The director and singer are rumoured to have become a couple around April 2021 and married quietly during 2022. Ora has said about the relationship: "I've always wanted the fairytale, that's what I grew up loving. For me, it was always about that love, finding a partner, so I'm really happy I did."
Ali MacGraw (4/1/1939, Aries Rabbit), Steve McQueen (3/24/1930, Aries Horse) : The respective stars of Bullitt and Love Story were married from 1973 to 1978. McGraw said in 2018: "He was incredibly attractive most of the time but there was also danger, there was bad boy there. I wish we had both grown old sober. There were wonderful days and dreadful days."
Mackenzie Davis (4/1/1987, Aries Rabbit), Kristen Stewart (4/9/1990, Aries Horse) : The two actors starred together in the film Happiest Season, said to be "the first mainstream festive romcom about a same-sex couple". Stewart described how the obvious on-screen chemistry never felt forced: "[Davis] is such a real person. I wanted this couple, and the way that we represented these individuals, to feel really casual, sort of self-assured. And Mackenzie is fun and infectious, and she has a confidence that I find contagious. It was really important for me to show a queer couple feeling cool and comfortable and in their own skin. I can’t watch this movie and be like, it’s kind of [expletive]. Anyway, luckily, Mackenzie exists, and there you go."
Jerrod Carmichael (4/6/1987, Aries Rabbit), Bo Burnham (8/21/1990, Leo Horse) : The two comedians are close friends. Burnham directed Carmichael's HBO comedy specials 8 (2017) and Rothaniel (2022), the latter during which Carmichael came out as gay. Carmichael has described: "[Burnham]’s the friend of my dreams, in a way. I’m really happy that we found each other. I trust him with my life, in all ways. And so a lot of the moments you see in Rothaniel, the reason I was able to go there is because he's directing. It's like my best friend's directing, and I can give everything. I don't have to hide anything, that I can take down any wall. He's the best friend you could ask for. He really protected me."
