The combination of Aries and Leo is one of the most celebrated in the entire Western zodiac. Fire might accurately be described as an all-or-nothing element: either dwindling into wisps of smoke, or rising to a glorious blaze. Separately, Aries and Leo can sometimes feel as if they are too much for situations and people, as if they need to restrain themselves to avoid seeming overly bold or ambitious. What a joy it is for each of them to find a match where they can let themselves be free!
Together, these twin Fire signs are truly each other's equal. Aries' Cardinal modality contributes pure idealism and adventurism, the energy of any project in its earliest and most inspiring phase. Leo's complementary Fixed modality offers the steadying, mature influence necessary to translate the visionary aspects of the Fire element into tangible, real-world glories.
No relationship is without complexities, but a pairing between Aries and Leo is close as the Western zodiac provides to a guarantee of happiness, pleasure, and triumph.

I am the luckiest for knowing, loving and being loved by you."
Jennifer Garner (4/17/1972, Aries Rat), Ben Affleck (8/15/1972, Leo Rat) : The two actors were married for 13 years from 2005 and had three children together.

He’s the most brilliant person in any room, the most charismatic, the most generous. He’s just a complicated guy."
Reese Witherspoon (3/22/1976, Aries Dragon), Jim Toth (7/27/1970, Leo Dog) : The actor and talent agent were married from 2011 to 2023, and have a son together. Witherspoon said in 2011, "I got lucky. I did. I got very lucky. He’s so wonderful with the children. I’m very blessed...[U]ntil I got remarried, I don’t think I realized how stressed I was.

Maya Angelou (4/4/1928, Aries Dragon), James Baldwin (8/2/1924, Leo Rat) : The two celebrated writers were close friends for many years. Angelou was famously prompted to begin work on her acclaimed memoir, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, by her publisher telling her an autobiography could not be serious literature. She later described: "I said, ‘Well, hmmm, maybe I’ll try it.’ The truth is that [my publisher] had talked to James Baldwin, my brother friend, and Jimmy told him that ‘if you want Maya Angelou to do something, tell her she can’t do it.’" After the memoir's publication, Baldwin said: "This testimony from a Black sister marks the beginning of a new era in the minds and hearts and lives of all Black men and women."

Short has described: "You know, you make movies and you’re in each other’s lives for a few months, in Yugoslavia or wherever, and then you never see each other again. But Steve and I made each other laugh, and we’re clowns, so that’s a big seductive element. That created a determination to see each other, and then have dinners, and that evolved into taking family vacations together."

After the latter was nominated for six Grammy awards in 2022, Lady Gaga described: "This album happened because it was Tony's idea and I made him a promise that we would make it and we did. At 95 years old, he has more nominations than ever, I'm so honored to be his companion in music and his friend. Thank you to the public for loving us, we surely love each other, and you. Believe in love and partnership, even with 60 years between us, and Alzheimer's, there is nothing like the magic of music. I love you Tony, and the world loves you too. How could they not?"
John Stockton (3/26/1962, Aries Tiger), Karl Malone (7/24/1963, Leo Rabbit) : The two basketball stars formed one of the most successful duos in NBA history, sharing an 18-year playoff streak with the Utah Jazz and achieving a combined 24 All-Star appearances. Stockton described in 2022: "I felt there was something magical. [Malone] read my mind. He caught everything. He finished everything. He had all my work ethic and then some. He loved the game. Just one thing after another. Just kind of bond, bond, bond, bond to where now he is literally inseparable for me as a brother...[T]here’s nothing I wouldn’t do for Karl Malone, and I think he feels the same way."

Compatibility overview
Like herding Tigers! A match between two natives of this regal sign is likely to be every bit as highly-charged as it sounds. While the overall atmosphere is potentially very positive, with an abundance of like-mindedness and mutual respect, these two will need lots of independent space to accommodate each other successfully.

Just as with shared elements in the Western zodiac, own-sign matches in Chinese astrology necessarily involve two signs in the same Trine Family. When the Tiger—who belongs in the same family as the Dog and Horse—encounters another Tiger, the underlying energy is thus deeply compatible.
Two Tiger natives share qualities that are essential to their being, such as powerful self-belief, commitment to noble and righteous causes, and a determination to succeed without ethical compromise. Early conversations are likely to prove especially inspiring. These two may, literally and figuratively, fall over themselves in their enthusiasm to share and develop their opinions. Sexual experiences are typically full of fireworks, but any interaction is likely to have a similar brand of high intensity, heated agreement.
It must be said that all this energy—even if, for the most part, apparently positive—can prove somewhat exhausting. Other compatible signs can provide the Tiger with steadying, calming influences. A pair of Tigers, however, are more apt to keep riling each other up past the point where their frenetic activity and enthusiasm is good for them. Blow-ups and confrontations of one kind or another would not be a surprise. Arguments may prove especially deflating, if both Tigers are equally convinced they have arrived at the most honourable course of action, yet there is no prospect of them seeing eye to eye.
Happily, the nature of the Tiger is such that they can be relied on to right themselves quickly. The answer for successful Tiger/Tiger relationships is thus often to carve out a good measure of independent time and space. Left for long enough to their own devices, these two will quickly remember how rousing and pleasurable it is to spend time with each other.
Even if longer term happiness is arrived at through somewhat greater distance, the relationship in whatever form is capable of providing inspiration and fulfilment long into the future.

Amy Madigan (9/11/1950, Virgo Tiger), Ed Harris (11/28/1950, Sagittarius Tiger) : The two actors have been married since 1983 and have one child. Harris described in 1985: "The acting thing is so intimate and personal that if we’re not working together, it’s real hard to share what we’re doing. I mean we both know what we’re doing, but you can’t really talk about your day very well. When you’re working together, though, there’s so much that is shared, so much unspoken thought and emotion that goes into the work, that it really draws you closer."
Hugh Hefner (4/9/1926, Aries Tiger), Kimberley Conrad (8/6/1962, Leo Tiger) : The magazine publisher and actress/model were married from 1989-2010 and had two children together. According to reports, the two separated in 1998, but Conrad and the children continued for many years to live in the house next door to Hefner, until a dispute over alimony payments.
John Coltrane (9/23/1926, Libra Tiger), Miles Davis (5/26/1926, Gemini Tiger) : The two jazz legends shared one of the most iconic collaborations in history during the late 1950s, including Davis' masterpieces Milestones (1958) and Kind of Blue (1959). It was a complex relationship, with Davis once striking Coltrane for slovenliness caused by drug use. But their mutual respect and influence have been widely acknowledged. Davis once described: "We used to talk a lot about music at rehearsals and on the way to gigs I'd say, 'Trane, here are some chords but don’t play them like they are all the time, you know? Start in the middle sometimes and don’t forget you can play them up in thirds. So that means you got 18, 19 different things to play in two bars.' He would sit there, eyes wide open, soaking up everything."
Tom Cruise (7/3/1962, Cancer Tiger), Penélope Cruz (4/28/1974, Taurus Tiger) : The two actors were romantically involved between around 2001 to 2004. Speaking about the relationship in 2006, Cruz said about Cruise: "Tom is a very good man, and I am close to his whole family, his children. I love his children, and his mum, and all of his family, and he's a great man. The people who have been good to me, they are untouchable, I am very loyal to the people who have meant something to me and have been good to me, very, very loyal."
Anthony Kiedis (11/1/1962, Scorpio Tiger), Flea (10/16/1962, Libra Tiger) : The two musicians and founding members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers have known each other since they were teenagers. Flea described in 2019: "I met him when I was 15 and we both started 10th grade at Fairfax High School and we were almost immediately in love and at war and it's stayed that way ever since. I found someone who I could communicate with in a profound way that I hadn't before and here we are 40 something years later..."
