Aries Rabbit and Pisces

There may be some hesitancy early on, owing to the typically gradual development of closeness between firstwest and secondwest, but with the cherished pairing of the firsteast and secondeast to help them, these two have the potential to hit the highest of highs.

Western Zodiac
Aries and Pisces
Compatibility overview
These two signs share a minor Semi-Sextile aspect, being next to each other on the zodiac wheel. This curious connection is sometimes likened to real-life “next-door neighbors”. It is easy to assume that people who inhabit similar surrounds must have lots in common, but there is much more to the story here. Indeed, possibly no semi-Sextile combination is as complex as that between firstwest and secondwest!

Because the cycle of the Western zodiac begins with Aries and ends with Pisces, probably no two adjacent signs possess such different characteristics—at least superficially—as these two.
Where Pisces tend to be dreamy, reflective and private, Aries are the zodiac's most dynamic and intense souls. The Semi-Sextile aspect is usually characterized by initial standoffishness, but these two could find themselves running in opposite directions! The respective elements of Fire (Aries) and Water (Pisces) may be a source of particular tension. Aries may see Pisces as depressingly boring and meek, while Pisces can find Aries to be bothersome attention-seekers whose priorities lack real meaning.
If this pair can be persuaded to engage more deeply with one another, however, delightful possibilities could lie in wait. Surprising as it may seem, Aries' Cardinal modality is a lovely match with Pisces' Mutable energy. The key is to tap into Aries' child-like idealism and sense of wonder. If Aries relaxes enough to share the visionary side of their character, this will resonate with Pisces' affinity for the eternal, and many inspiring ideas could spring forth.
It may be more customary to find this combination in successful professional and friendship contexts than intimate relationships. But this combination should not be discounted in any relationship, especially as the Semi-sextile connection is known for its capacity to become ever stronger over time.

Big Sean (3/25/1988, Aries Dragon), Jhené Aiko (3/16/1988, Pisces Dragon) : The rapper and singer/songwriter have been romantically involved since 2016, and have one child. As a duo, they released the album, Twenty88, in 2016. Aiko has described: "When I met Sean, I had a boyfriend and he was showing interest in me, but I was like, I have a boyfriend. But we were friends, it was never, nothing disrespectful ever happened between me and Sean. We were forced to really, really get to know each other on a friendship level, you know what I mean? And to the point where he was even at my brother's funeral. We talk to each other on a friendship level throughout all of my relationship...It just came to a point where it was like, 'I'm single, you're single, we love each other.' We actually already loved each other as people and then it was like, 'Okay, let's just, you know, be together.'"
Hayes MacArthur (4/16/1977, Aries Snake), Ali Larter (2/28/1976, Pisces Dragon) : The two actors began dating in 2005, with Larter saying in 2007 that, "I told my lover after three weeks that I wanted to marry him and that we could do it tomorrow." They eventually exchanged rings in 2007 and married in 2009. They have two children together.
Debbie Reynolds (4/1/1932, Aries Monkey), Elizabeth Taylor (2/27/1932, Pisces Monkey) : The two celebrated actors from Hollywood's Golden Age were friends in their youth. Reynolds explained: "We went to school together on the lot, when [Taylor] was in between films. I was just a beginner, and she and I were not in any manner alike, but we got along very well because I was in awe of going to school with Elizabeth Taylor." Later, they became embroiled in a love triangle, with Reynolds' husband Eddie Fisher having an affair and then marrying Taylor. However, the two women reconciled after their paths crossed on a cruise ship. Reynolds described: "I sent a note to [Taylor] and she sent a note to me in passing, and then we had dinner together...And we just said, 'Let's call it a day.' And we got smashed. And we had a great evening, and stayed friends since then." They later starred together in These Old Broads (2001), written by Reynolds' daughter, Carrie Fisher.
Leonard Nimoy (3/26/1931, Aries Sheep), Susan Bay (3/16/1943, Pisces Sheep) : The two actors were married from 1989 until Nimoy's death in 2015. According to a statement by Nimoy's rabbi after his death, "Leonard shared with me that he had never met a woman like her, never had he loved anyone so dearly and passionately, that she’d saved his life and lifted him from darkness and unhappiness in ways he never thought possible."
Eric Clapton (3/30/1945, Aries Rooster), George Harrison (2/25/1943, Pisces Sheep) : The two musicians shared a famously loyal and tumultuous friendship from the 1960s until Harrison's death in 2001. As well as their iconic collaboration on the Beatles' song, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", their work together also included several tracks on each of Harrison's landmark solo albums, All Things Must Pass (1970), and Cloud Nine (1987). Remarkably, Clapton became fixated with Harrison's wife, Pattie Boyd, during the late 1960s; Boyd divorced Harrison in 1977, and married Clapton in 1979. The two guitar-players remained friends, however, with Harrison reportedly referring to Clapton as his "husband-in-law" during Clapton's marriage to Boyd. After Harrison's death, Clapton joined with Harrison's widow, Olivia Harrison, to stage the Concert for George in 2002.
Aretha Franklin (3/25/1942, Aries Horse), Smokey Robinson (2/19/1940, Pisces Dragon) : The two legendary singer/songwriters grew up together in Detroit, and formed a lifelong friendship. After Franklin died in 2018, Robinson described: "I hear piano being played and I hear this little voice singing. I look in and there’s Aretha sitting at the piano singing and playing almost like she sang and played in her adult life. She was probably 5 years old or so and she just had it...Aretha and I were tight. We had a wonderful, wonderful friendship that lasted throughout her entire life. She was my longest friend on earth...We always had a relationship that almost had nothing to do with show business...We very seldom, when we got together, even talked about show business."
Ann Romney (4/16/1949, Aries Ox), Mitt Romney (3/12/1947, Pisces Pig) : The US politician (and 2012 Republican candidate for President) and equestrian/author/philanthropist married in 1969 and have five children together. In a 2012 speech, Ann Romney described: "I read somewhere that Mitt and I have a 'storybook marriage.' Well, in the storybooks I read, there were never long, long, rainy winter afternoons in a house with five boys screaming at once. And those storybooks never seemed to have chapters called MS or Breast Cancer...A storybook marriage? No, not at all. What Mitt Romney and I have is a real marriage."

Compatibility overview

Whether a fleeting encounter or a lifelong devotion, this connection has the potential to enrich both parties' lives immeasurably.

The essential structure of the Chinese zodiac builds on the four Trine Families. While each sign enjoys very favourable energy with members of their own family, they also have a special Soulmate connection with one sign from their kindred Trine Family. It is this enchanting Soulmate energy that unites the Dog and Rabbit.
The special affinity between these signs can be expected to reveal itself quickly. The Dog prides themselves above all on their values, their sense of right and wrong, and their appreciation for all that is deserving and beautiful. The Rabbit's brand of sensitive idealism, with their gift for aesthetic expression, thus shoots straight to the Dog's heart. On the other hand, the Rabbit can be easily disturbed by drama, showiness, or guile. The plainspoken, trustworthy directness of the Dog will be putting the Rabbit at ease before either has said a word.
Hence this combination is naturally conducive to respect and intimacy from the beginning. As the relationship grows, the potential for supportiveness and mutual progress is virtually unlimited. The Dog's usually forthright persona masks a surprisingly anxious interior life, which the Rabbit's gentle energy soothes, directly and indirectly, whenever they are around. This liberates the Dog to do what they do best—apply their near-infinite capacity for hard work and commitment to the causes that are most important to them. For the Rabbit's part, in other company they may be too overawed or intimidated to fulfil their talents. But the Dog's earnestness and belief in them can provide all the self-confidence they need to prosper.
These two will need to be mindful that their Soulmate energy is something of a high-wire act. It may be enticing and dependable in small doses, but it needs time and dedication to maintain in an enduring close relationship. Conflicting allegiances or distractions can cause real heartbreak here. However, whatever the context, if both parties are able to invest in the relationship appropriately, the instinctive tenderness and admiration that characterizes the Dog/Rabbit pairing can produce one of the Chinese zodiac's most special bonds, as delightful as it is inspirational and productive.

Johnny Depp (6/9/1963, Gemini Rabbit), Tim Burton (8/25/1958, Virgo Dog) : The actor and director are long term collaborators who have made films together for over three decades, including Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, Alice in Wonderland, and Sleepy Hollow. Reflecting on their relationship, Burton has said, "You don't get that many times in your life where you just connect with somebody and it's really simple...it's just there."
Harley Quinn Smith (6/26/1999, Cancer Rabbit), Kevin Smith (8/2/1970, Leo Dog) : The director and actor/podcaster are a famous father/daughter duo who also collaborate together. The proud dad has told reporters, "[Harley] is amazing...we've been writing together which is so much fun because that's make pretend, right? So you get to play again, which is a rare gift for a parent now." Harley has also described how they work together: "It's crazy because he'll say something and I'll finish a sentence and then he'll be like, 'Yes! Or I'll say something that he's thinking and he'll be like, 'high-five!' And that's it, we're just good creative partners because we have the same brain."
Samira Wiley (4/15/1987, Aries Rabbit), Lauren Morelli (7/22/1982, Cancer Dog) : The actor and writer married in 2017 and have one child together. They first met on the set of Orange is the New Black, while Morelli was married to a man. Wiley described the early development of their relationship in 2018, saying, "I remember those first months with her, trying to figure out her journey with her own sexuality. Feeling like she picked me as the person she was going to talk to about all of it. And it wasn’t sexual, it was just like a friend. There was something deeply intimate about that, whether there was sexual tension there or not. The deep intimacy of being two people talking about the core of who we are. Talking about our journeys."
Andrew Ridgeley (1/26/1963, Aquarius Rabbit), George Michael (6/25/1963, Cancer Rabbit) : The two musicians were schoolboy friends who, as the pop duo Wham!, achieved massive success together. They remained friends after Michael embarked on a solo career. In Ridgeley's memoir, Wham! George Michael and Me, he described how Michael was plagued by self-doubt during the recording of what became the platinum-selling solo album Faith, and Ridgeley gave him this advice: "If he were to stand any chance of finding happiness, he would have to fulfill his talent. He didn’t have a choice. The only thing for him to do next was claim his place as the greatest singer-songwriter of his generation."
Pattie Mallette (4/2/1975, Aries Rabbit), Justin Bieber (3/1/1994, Pisces Dog) : The celebrated musician was born when his mother was 18 and raised by her as a single parent. Mallette later described the troubles of her youth and how she and Bieber achieved success in a memoir, Nowhere but Up: The Story of Justin Bieber's Mom. After a period of separation during a difficult time for the young superstar, they have reconnected. Bieber has explained, "I was distant because I was ashamed. I never wanted my mom to be disappointed in me and I knew she was....She's an amazing woman and I love her." Mallette has posted on social media, "I'm so proud of the amazing young man you are, and the young man you are becoming. None of us are perfect and never will be...I admire your character and integrity. You are maturing beautifully and wise beyond your years."
Conan O'Brien (4/18/1963, Aries Rabbit), Sarah Silverman (12/1/1970, Sagittarius Dog) : This late show host and comedian have played an important role in their respective careers. Reflecting on when they first sat down for an on-air interview 28 years earlier when Silverman was just 22-years-old and starting out, Silverman told O'Brien, "I love your show so much. I do. I love it so much. I mean, the first time I ever was recognized on the street was from your show. Because you’d always have me on. I’ve been on your show for so many years. I grew up on your show. I honestly feel like my whole death reel could just be clips from your show [and] I’d be happy.” O’Brien jokingly responded, "I say aim higher."
Frank Sinatra (12/12/1915, Sagittarius Rabbit), Ava Gardner (12/24/1922, Capricorn Dog) : The legendary musican/actor and actor were married for 6 years but their relationship spanned decades, and they remained friends until Gardner's death in 1990. Sinatra reportedly always kept a photo of Gardner taped to his dressing room mirrors, and a friend of Gardner has claimed that the actress had told her "that she never loved another man as much as she loved Frank."

Final Words
The semi-Sextile combination of firstwest and secondwest has a reputation for beginning slowly, but even if the early going proves a bit tough, there is great potential for collaboration and tenderness in the longer term. In this relationship, however, arguably the most fortunate element is the gift of the Soulmate connection between firsteast and secondeast. As long as these two have bandwidth in their lives to manage a true kindred spirit, the sky's the limit for these two in any context.
