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."

Bruce Lee and Linda Lee Cadwell

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."

Fred Armisen and Natasha Lyonne

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."

Jake Gyllenhaal and Reece Witherspoon

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."

The Rabbit and Sheep are one of the most magical pairings in the Chinese zodiac.

A central element of Chinese astrology is the four Trine Families into which the twelve signs divide. One of these consists of the Rabbit and Sheep (along with their most generous ally, the Pig). These signs are bound together by a mutual love of aesthetic beauty, relaxation, and empathy. In the company of some other signs, they can both be quite easily overwhelmed, given their profound sensitivity to perceived ugliness, noise or aggression. But together, they will tend to lose themselves quickly in a wonderful atmosphere of tranquility.

The Sheep will likely be fascinated by the Rabbit's abundant skills and deeply romantic sensibility. Instinctively secure in the Rabbit's company, the Sheep is apt to unleash a true charm offensive, delighting and reassuring the gentle Rabbit. Perhaps no other sign is as capable of expressing pure hypnotic joy as the Sheep when they are at ease! While early exchanges are likely to have a flirtatious quality even in entirely chaste surroundings, the closer these two become, the more likely they are to realise the powerful creative potential of their shared energy. For these two signs are artists in their marrow.

As a pair, the Rabbit and Sheep are capable of expressing their shared aesthetic with extraordinary elegance and refinement, whether in professional projects or in building a home and life together. Given the freedom and peace they need, the results will almost certainly be breathtaking.

He can’t. And I, and everyone else who knows him well, we love him for it. I know one thing: the world would certainly be a hell of a lot more dull if that man weren’t in it."

Michael Jordan (2/17/1963, Aquarius Rabbit), Yvette Prieto (3/26/1979, Aries Sheep) : The legenday basketballer and model married in 2013. They have two children, twins born in 2014.

But we, against all odds, managed to maintain a great close friendship...[Roberts is] just one of the most genuine friends I have. She's a really generous person—great sense of humor and really caring. Great family, and she's been a good friend and role model for me."

Laurene Jobs described in 2020: "I can talk about him for hours. I met Steve when I was 25 years old. And from the day we met, we were together for 22 years. So he influenced everything. I grew up with him. Just like anyone that you share your life with, there’s an exchange and a robustness. We had a very, very beautiful and rich connection. We talked a lot, for hours every day. To pull out any one way in which he affected my worldview is impossible, because I have integrated so much of him."

Sidney Poitier (2/20/1927, Pisces Rabbit), Joanna Shimkus (10/30/1943, Scorpio Sheep) : The two actors were married from 1976 until Poitier died in 2022. Shimkus described in 1998: "I guess we were just destined to be [together]...It could be that we lead a very quiet life. It could be that it's just the way it is, I don't really know. But I never really did see him as a Black man. I mean, I know he is Black, but I just saw him as a man, and he was just a wonderful person. An amazing human being...The thing that attracted me to him the most, I think, is his integrity and his honesty [and] his loyalty to his family. He's just an amazing human being. He's just a good, good, good person. And he's cute too, yes! And he was especially gorgeous then. He still is too now, but he was very, very attractive then."

Mac Miller and Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar (6/17/1987, Gemini Rabbit), Mac Miller (1/19/1992, Capricorn Sheep) : The two rappers were friends who collaborated on songs including, "Fight the Feeling" (2012), and "God is Fair, Sexy Nasty" (2016). Speaking after Miller died tragically at age 26, Lamar described: "All in all that’s the type of person he was — just a good dude. Always made you feel good, just a great energy to have around...Great musician. Great writer. He just always had a smile on his face...No matter what he was going through, he didn’t make you feel sorry for him, you know? He was strong about it —always kept a smile on his face because he wanted you to smile, too. And that’s just something I always loved, you know, no matter whatever personal issues, he gave you that energy. He gave you that energy. It wasn’t no misery loves company with him, you know? He showed a smile and then you gave that smile right back. It made you feel good. So forever we’re gonna remember the life and we’re gonna remember that smile. Celebrate. Mac Miller. Love."
