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 Pig and Sheep share a uniquely gentle harmonious energy match, one of the most nourishing in all of the Chinese zodiac.

Each of the four Trine Families that lie at the heart of the Chinese zodiac (like the elements in Western astrology) is brought together by a shared type of energy. In the case of the family that includes both the Pig and the Sheep (and their intimate comrade, the Rabbit), the uniting energy bespeaks a strong attachment to home and family. The values that are most important to these two tend to reflect this earnest desire for coziness and harmony. When the Pig and Sheep encounter one another, they are likely to experience immediately a great sense of cosmic reassurance. The Sheep, who can be frequently skittish in other company, will tend to relax all over, secure in the knowledge that the Pig's boundless generosity will not expose them to pressure or discomfort. The Pig, who with some other signs can alternate between naivety and frustration owing to their very trusting nature, finds in the Sheep a pure-hearted ally, whose gently protective spirit will never manipulate or take advantage of them.

Given the opportunity to grow together, these kindred spirits should find their relationship a pathway to nourishment and encouragement in those areas that are dearest to both of them. Artistic endeavours are strongly favoured, as are occasions for intimate merriment (not to mention moderate indulgence). Even for distant acquaintances who meet once in a blue moon, there can be a distinctly loving closeness to interactions between these two.

Whether at a distance or in more familiar contexts, this is a relationship to be treasured, a joy in times of plenty, and a haven from storms.

Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev
Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev (click for attribution/s)

Mikhail Gorbachev (3/2/1931, Pisces Sheep), Ronald Reagan (2/6/1911, Aquarius Pig) : The 40th US President and the eighth and final leader of the Soviet Union are credited with together ending the Cold War. In a series of meetings between 1985-1988, the two leaders agreed to a significant reduction in arms and transformed the relationship between their respective countries. The Reagan Foundation now records: "The unlikely pairing of a devoted anti-Communist advocate of capitalism with a dyed-in-the-wool Marxist resulted not only in the most significant arms reduction treaty in history, but in a permanent change in U.S.-Soviet relations. Neither country, nor the world, would ever be the same again. Somehow, against all odds, 'Ron and Mikhail,' as they eventually came to call each other, had found a way to make the planet safer after all."

Mike Nichols (11/6/1931, Scorpio Sheep), Emma Thompson (4/15/1959, Aries Pig) : The actor and director/producer collaborated multiple times, including the films, The Remains of the Day (1993), Primary Colors (1998), and Wit (2001), and the TV series, Angels in America (2003). After Nichols died in 2014, Thompson described: "Working with [Nichols] was like going to an eclectic, unorthodox, and highly original university. We would all get to wander about in the corridors and high ceilings of his mind—for free, mind you—each making different discoveries according to our tastes and aptitudes. Then, later, we would find that those discoveries applied to the rest of our lives...As for the laughing, there was no end to it. There were periods of hilarity that I am surprised I survived, let alone him. He laughed and cried in equal measure, to excess and always with good reason. He loved with unparalleled generosity and without reservation. His gifts to those of us lucky enough to have known him can never be measured. It was a lifting up. He lifted us all up.""

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver

Maria Shriver (11/6/1955, Scorpio Sheep), Arnold Schwarzenegger (7/30/1947, Leo Pig) : The actor/politician and and journalist/author were married from 1986 to 2021 and have four children. They separated when, after completing his term as Governor of California, Schwarzenegger revealed to his family that 14 years earlier he had fathered a child with their longtime maid. Schwarzenegger has since described: "I can beat myself up as much as I want — it's not gonna change the situation. So the key thing is, how do you move forward? How do you have a great relationship with your kids? You can't go back — if I could, in reality, be Terminator, of course I would go back in time and would say, 'Arnold … no.' You know, it's always easy to be smart in hindsight. That's not the way it works."

Keegan-Michael Key (3/22/1971, Aries Pig), Jordan Peele (2/21/1979, Pisces Sheep) : The comedian/filmmaker and actor/comedian are close friends, who appeared together in the sketch comedy show, Key & Peele (2012-2015). They also collaborated on the films, Keanu (2016), and Wendell & Wild (2022). In a joint interview, Key described about their friendship: "[Peele] makes my heart giggle...There’s an ineffable quality, and sometimes it’s timing and luck that people just come across each other at a particular time in their lives. They come from similar places and they bring beautifully different perspectives." Peele said, "We’re each other’s funniest person...Whenever we get together, whether it’s been a day or a few months, it’s like there we are … We have a competition to make each other laugh and it’s just the same infectious thing that doesn’t really exist with anyone else. We’re just constantly trying to crack each other up."

John Krasinski and Emily Blunt

John Krasinski (10/20/1979, Libra Sheep), Emily Blunt (2/23/1983, Pisces Pig) : The two actors have been married since 2010, and have two children. They co-starred in the film, A Quiet Place (2018), which Krasinski also directed. Blunt described in 2013: "Meeting John really changed my life. When I feel the support that I have from him, I feel invincible. There’s someone behind you on your good days and someone in front of you on your bad days."

Laura Dern (2/10/1967, Aquarius Sheep), Diane Ladd (11/29/1935, Sagittarius Pig) : The two actors are mother and daughter. They have co-starred in multiple films, including Wild at Heart (1990), Rambling Rose (1991), Citizen Ruth (1996), and Inland Empire (2006), as well as the HBO TV series, Enlightened (2011-2013). In 2023, they are set to publish their first co-written book, Honey, Baby, Mine: A Mother and Daughter Talk Life, Death, and Love (and Banana Pudding). Dern described: "When my mother received a terrifying health diagnosis, we started taking walks. Walks that resulted in us having the deepest, most honest and even the funniest conversations of our lives together. This book is the result of not waiting to share it all and has brought us closer than ever."

Ron Wood and Keith Richards

Keith Richards (12/18/1943, Sagittarius Sheep), Ron Wood (6/1/1947, Gemini Pig) : The two musicians have collaborated as the two guitarists in The Rolling Stones, since Wood joined the band in 1975. In the documentary film, Shine a Light, Wood was asked what was Richards' best point, and he answered: "Well, he's very moral and he's very caring, unlike his image." Richards described about their playing: "I know the truth, which is like, we're both pretty lousy, but together we're better than 10 others."
