Despite the many differences, a key synergy between the Western and Chinese zodiacs is the prized role of Trine combinations. In both systems, signs that are four steps apart are considered especially fortunate. One of the the Trine matches most revered in Western astrology is that between Aries and Sagittarius.
These are two Fire signs, an element which gives this pairing extremely passionate and dynamic energy. Aries' enthusiasm and ambition, combined with their pure-hearted idealism, will usually hold a visceral appeal for the wise and dedicated Sagittarius. Sagittarius' depth of vision and philosophical outlook will similarly resonate with Aries, filling them with a sense of freedom and possibility. The compatibility here exists on a fundamental, existential plane. Aries is, after all, the most child-like of all the signs, where Sagittarius emphasises a beyond-human conception of harmony between all living things. Thus, while these two can amuse each other no end, and will likely enjoy any kind of intimate attention, the essence of their connection is more abstract or spiritual than physical.
These two signs are natural collaborators. Aries' Cardinal modality is always beginning, always in the process of invention, while Sagittarius is a Mutable sign, ever reflecting on effects, consequences, and implications. This balance helps these signs work together effortlessly on any project, ensuring that shared outcomes reflect their compatible essential values. The difficulties they face elsewhere may also be less obtrusive with each other. Sagittarius tends to be very understanding of Aries' furious intensity and obliviousness to risk, while Aries is usually unperturbed by Sagittarius' potential to be overbearing or to overcommit themselves.
No relationship is perfect, and sometimes easy relationships are hard to prioritize over difficult ones—as the saying goes, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. In the right circumstances, however, the Aries/Sagittarius match can be a true gem, providing nourishment and dependability capable of lasting a lifetime.

Leslie Mann (3/26/1972, Aries Rat), Judd Apatow (12/6/1967, Sagittarius Sheep) : Actor Mann and film-maker/actor Apatow have been married since 1997, and have two children. They are frequent collaborators, and have worked together on films including, The Cable Guy (1996), The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005), Knocked Up (2007), Funny People (2009), This is 40 (2012), and The Bubble (2022). In 2013, Apatow described: "We like working together. We probably get along much better than one would assume during the creative process. What makes [our marriage] work is we’re always trying to do better and understand each other. We’re both complicated people, but we want it to work and we love each other."
David E. Kelley (4/4/1956, Aries Monkey), Mandy Patinkin (11/30/1952, Sagittarius Dragon) : The actor and writer/producer collaborated on the award-winning TV series Chicago Hope. Speaking about his decision to return after initially leaving in the second season, Patinkin said: "I love my relationship with [Kelley] and the things that he says and the moral tales that he puts forth in the scripts. And the way he uses [Patinkin's character] Geiger as a voice for that learning of morality and in some cases the teaching of morality...I love living my day putting in front of my face and in front of my eyes songs and words that mean something to me and that are the kinds of ideas that I want in front of my face. And that's what David writes and that's what the character, I feel, both learns and delivers. So that's why I wanted to come back — it's a character I love."
Linda Lee Cadwell (3/21/1945, Aries Rooster), Bruce Lee (11/27/1940, Sagittarius Dragon) : The martial arts legend/actor and author were married from 1964 to 1973 and had two children. In Cadwell's bestseller, Bruce Lee: The Man Only I Knew, she wrote about their first date: "I was totally captivated by his magnetism and the energy which flowed from him; yet I cannot honestly say that I abruptly fell in love with Bruce that very night…the whole relationship was a gradual and maturing process which continued right through our whole marriage. Bruce used to say, 'Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.'"
Ewan McGregor (3/31/1971, Aries Pig), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (11/28/1984, Sagittarius Rat) : The actors worked together on Fargo and began a relationship. They have a child born in 2021. Speaking about Winstead joining the Star Wars universe in Ahsoka, Macgregor (who has played the character Obi Wan Kenobi multiple times) described: "She doesn't need any advice from me, but it was kind of cool that when it came up and she was starting to think about it — we thought it was amazing to both be in this world together … It's something that will [always] be with us. It's not something that ever goes away."
Natasha Lyonne (4/4/1979, Aries Sheep), Fred Armisen (12/4/1966, Sagittarius Horse) : The two actors were a couple from 2014 until 2022. About their break-up, Lyon described in characteristic wry style: "I had been living [in LA] with Fred [Armisen] and during COVID I honestly think we broke up because I wanted a swimming pool. We love each other just about as much as two people can love each other and we’re still talking all the time, but Freddy doesn’t like a swimming pool. It might seem like a mundane reason for a breakup, but during that pandemic, you’ve got to get your laps."
Anita Pallenberg (4/6/1942, Aries Horse), Keith Richards (12/18/1943, Sagittarius Sheep) : The musician/founding member of The Rolling Stones and actor were a couple throughout the 1970s and had three children together. After the intensity and excesses of their partnership, they continued a supportive friendship until Pallenberg's death in 2017. Richards has described how Pallenberg transformed his confidence and helped shape his iconic style: "Anita had a huge influence on the style of the times. She could put anything together and look good. I would wake up and put on what was lying around. Sometimes it was mine, and sometimes it was the old lady's, but we were exactly the same size, so it didn't matter."
Reese Witherspoon (3/22/1976, Aries Dragon), Jake Gyllenhaal (12/19/1980, Sagittarius Monkey) : The two superstar actors had a relationship between 2007 and 2009. Witherspoon described at the time how the couple spent their weekends at her farmhouse outside Los Angeles: "We have chickens and we grow cucumbers and tomatoes. Jake's a great cook, he does a lot." Gyllenhaal said later: "[Witherspoon] is, as I would say about most of the women who I'm close friends with or had relationships in my life, one of the smartest, strongest, people I've ever met."

Compatibility overview

Four Trine Families provide the backbone of the Chinese zodiac. The Ox and Rooster together make up one of these (along with their natural ally, the Snake). This family tends to attract great fortune in ventures, especially of a commercial nature, that reward tenacity, patience, and excellent judgement. The Rooster is sometimes underestimated in these respects, because they are usually flamboyant fashionistas with a lively, even brash, exterior. Onlookers might not expect them to gel with the usually more staid and obviously purposeful Ox. In truth, however, these two complement each other wonderfully.
The Ox tends to guard the more excitable side of their character, preferring to seem unflappable even in the company of those they know well. But the Rooster's brand of extroversion helps the Ox to relax, to feel comfortable about revealing their more adventurous side. Don't be surprised to find these two injecting some hilarity into social situations! Perhaps the Ox is put at ease because beneath the Rooster's panache lies such profound diligence and commitment. For their part, the Rooster is likely to find themselves deeply impressed by the stamina and shrewdness of the indefatigable Ox. Together, not only will these two be able to draw on an extraordinary ability to identify untapped opportunities, especially of a financial nature, but they will have almost limitless reserves of determination and patience to ensure ultimate success in their chosen venture.
Outsiders may find the shared world between the Ox and Rooster somewhat difficult to penetrate, and there is potential for inflexibility or insensitivity to others. But it would be unwise to bet against these two achieving whatever they set their minds to, not to mention having a whale of a time together along the way.

Pharrell Williams (4/5/1973, Aries Ox), Ariana Grande (6/26/1993, Cancer Rooster) : Musician/producer Williams produced and collaborated on singer/songwriter/actor Grande's Sweetener album. Grande described: "I don’t mix well with people who have crazy egos and right away [Williams] was super fun and chill and nice and there wasn’t any of that. He was more worried about getting to know me and making sure I was comfortable."
Sammy Davis, Jr. (12/8/1925, Sagittarius Ox), Kim Novak (2/13/1933, Aquarius Rooster) : The actor and entertainer reportedly shared an intense but risky romance in the late 1950s. Novak later described: "It was a very dangerous relationship then—a white woman and a black man, no matter his status—it simply didn’t mix publicly. I was suddenly in the eye of a hurricane."
Warren Beatty (3/30/1937, Aries Ox), Diane Keaton (1/5/1946, Capricorn Rooster) : The two actors had a high-profile romance around the making of Red in 1981. Thirty-five years later, Keaton still talks fondly about Beatty: "He is curious about everyone. He is so seductive in that regard. He makes you feel like you are the only one, the person that matters; that you are just absolutely fascinating, you know? And it’s with everyone, across the board. He just has this presence."
James Gandolfini (9/18/1961, Virgo Ox), David Chase (8/22/1945, Leo Rooster) : The actor and film-maker were close friends, who shared an iconic collaboration as the creator and lead actor in the TV series, The Sopranos (1999-2007). In a eulogy at Gandolfini's funeral in 2013, Chase described: "[V]ery early on, we were shooting in that really hot summer in humid New Jersey, and I looked over and you were sitting in an aluminum beach chair with your slacks rolled up to your knees, and black socks and black shoes, and a damp, wet handkerchief on your head...I was filled with love, and I knew then that I was in the right place...It made me so proud of our heritage to see you do that, and when I say that you were my brother, this has a lot to do with that. Italian-American. Italian worker. Builder. That Jersey thing, whatever that means. The same social class. I really feel, though that I’m older than you, I always felt that we were brothers — and partly based on that day. I was filled with so much love for everything that we were doing and what we were about to embark on. I also feel you’re my brother because of the things we both loved. Family. Work. People in all their imperfection. Food. Alcohol. Talking. Rage. And a desire to bring the whole structure crashing down."
Woody Harrelson (7/23/1961, Leo Ox), Matthew McConaughey (11/4/1969, Scorpio Rooster) : The two actors have been close friends for decades and have collaborated multiple times, including in Welcome to Hollywood (1998/2000), EDtv (1999), Surfer Dude (2008), and True Detective (2014). Responding to the suggestion that they might in fact be biological brothers, McConaughey said in 2023: "You know, where I start and where [Harrelson] ends, and where he starts and I end, has always been like a murky line. And that’s part of our bromance, right? My kids call him Uncle Woody. His kids call me Uncle Matthew. And you see pictures of us and my family thinks a lot of pictures of him are me. His family thinks a lot of pictures of me are him."
Sissy Spacek (12/25/1949, Capricorn Ox), Jack Fisk (12/19/1945, Sagittarius Rooster) : The actor and production designer/director have been married since 1971 and have two daughters together. Spacek has described: "First we met working together, and throughout the 1970s we just did almost every film together. We really supported one another and we really understood the business. It was what brought us together. And we were passionate about the same things, including movie-making. And that's something that we continue to share."
Naomi Osaka (10/16/1997, Libra Ox), Serena Williams (9/26/1981, Libra Rooster) : The two champion tennis players forged a strong bond after they met in the final of the US Open in 2018, when Williams received three on-court violations, and Osaka was visibly upset after her victory. In the aftermath of the match, Williams wrote an apology to Osaka, saying: "As I said on the court, I am so proud of you and I am truly sorry. I thought I was doing the right thing in sticking up for myself. But I had no idea the media would pit us against each other. I would love the chance to live that moment over again. I am, was, and will always be happy for you and supportive of you...All my love and your fan, Serena." Osaka responded, "People can misunderstand anger for strength because they can’t differentiate between the two. No one has stood up for themselves the way you have and you need to continue trailblazing." The pair have since maintained their supportive relationship, with Osaka saying in 2021: "It’s always an honour playing [Williams]...I was a little kid watching her play, and just to be on the court playing against her for me is a dream."
Kate Beckinsale (7/26/1973, Leo Ox), Pete Davidson (11/16/1993, Scorpio Rooster) : The actor/model and comedian/actor attracted pervasive media attention when they dated in 2019, with Beckinsale being nearly 20 years older. Seemingly referring to the relationship, Beckinsale said at the time: "I’ve never been in this position before — never dated anybody who comes with their own bag of mischief. It’s all quite shocking, and something to get used to. I think if you liked the person less, you would bow out of it. If that were the main thrust of the relationship, there would be a problem. But it’s not."
