Western Zodiac
Scorpio and Aries
Compatibility overview
This mysterious match is a bit like a riddle without an answer. Neither confrontational nor directly aligned, firstwest and secondwest tend to move in almost completely separate orbits. This leads some astrologers to claim they have nothing in common. Yet such a superficial reading misses the great potential of this match for creative collaboration and individual growth.

The interval of five steps around the Western zodiac wheel, as between Aries and Scorpio, is known as a Quincunx (or inconjunct) aspect. This is a minor aspect, so the energy is gentler and more malleable than other influences.
These two were traditionally thought of as astrological strangers, having little connection between them at all. It is true that the elements here—Fire for Aries, Water for Scorpio—can be quite discordant. Aries is blessed with super-abundant, explosive energy, and child-like innocence. Scorpio's power, on the other hand, stems from a darker, more fluid, all-encompassing perspective. Hence Scorpio sometimes strikes Aries as heavy and depressing, where Aries can appear to Scorpio as noisily selfish and annoying. Both signs will probably think topics dearest to the other's heart are at best mildly interesting, if not basically a waste of time. The Quincunx aspect, however, means that tensions here are rarely too serious or aggressive. Instead, the relationship has a non-plussed, mystified quality: a sense of whatever, you do you.
As strange as it may seem, mutual puzzlement is one of this relationship's great strengths. Aries is a Cardinal modality sign, associated with purity and inception, which forms a perfect compliment to Scorpio's Fixed energy, with its focus on realization and achievement. These two signs are therefore ideal collaborators and partners, provided they respect each other's boundaries and operate within their own spheres of interest. Creative exploration is highly favoured, precisely because the relationship favours teamwork and individuality. Let's also not forget that these signs are among the Western zodiac's most prepossessing, each capable of lighting up a room with incredibly potent energy. It is important for conflicts to be addressed quickly, to avoid the dissimilarities between these two forming too wide a gulf.
With the right blend of separation and togetherness, this relationship can be a genuine delight, allowing both signs to achieve great personal fulfilment while forging a dependable and deeply rewarding shared connection.

Robert Downey Jr. (4/4/1965, Aries Snake), Susan Downey (11/6/1973, Scorpio Ox) : The actor and film producer have been married since 2005 and have two children. Susan Downey described in a joint interview: "[Some 'me' time is] key in any relationship. Whether you’re working together all of the time or not, you always have to give each other space and kind of read it. He’s a little bit of a slower start in the morning than I am. So I have to make sure that there’s enough coffee in his system before I start throwing questions his way." Robert added: "There is always that thing of love and respect. It is work, but it’s just so nice."
Quentin Tarantino (3/27/1963, Aries Rabbit), Daniella Pick (11/21/1983, Scorpio Pig) : The director and singer first met in 2009 during promotions for Tarantino's film, Inglourious Basterds. They married in 2018. Pick has been quoted as saying, "Quentin really loves my cooking...We spend a lot of time during the day together, laughing, talking. He’s a gentleman, romantic, funny, and a hunk."
Kourtney Kardashian (4/18/1979, Aries Sheep), Travis Barker (11/14/1975, Scorpio Rabbit) : The media personality/model and musician have been close friends since at least 2018 and married in 2022. Together they share six children from previous relationships. Speaking in 2021, Barked described: "I dated girls who didn't have kids and I find it hard because they would have trouble understanding like, 'Why don't you want to go to dinner every night with me?' or 'Why don't you want to see me every night?' And now I'm spending time with a woman who's a great mom, who's a great friend and you don't have to worry about any of those things. It just comes natural, it's like a maturity thing. And I also really like missing someone and cherishing the time that I spend with them instead of every day being with them."
Ethel Kennedy (4/11/1928, Aries Dragon), Robert F. Kennedy (11/20/1925, Scorpio Ox) : The former United States Attorney-General and human rights advocate were married for 18 years and had 11 children, before his assassination in 1968. One biographer has written: "There’s a reason that Ethel has lived with these rumors [of infidelity] for 50 years and has stopped listening to or reading about them...What she cared about is not only did Bobby always come home, but that he came home to her and the kids...He hugely loved Ethel Kennedy. They’re one of the great romances of American politics."
Jackie Chan (4/7/1954, Aries Horse), Owen Wilson (11/18/1968, Scorpio Monkey) : The two actors starred memorably in the films Shanghai Noon and Shanghai Knights. The chemistry between the leads was widely praised. Wilson described after the sequel: "I'd gotten to be friends with Jackie on the first [film]. I knew what a hard worker he was...[Chan] goes on the set, he kind of looks around and he sees something and he incorporates that into the scene. That was a really nice way for me to work too because I don't like to be tied down to necessarily how the script is if the scene doesn't work when you get on set. I like it free."
Elton John (3/25/1947, Aries Pig), David Furnish (10/25/1962, Scorpio Tiger) : The legendary musician and film-maker have been together for over 20 years. In 2005, they were one of the first couples in the UK to enter into the then-recently-introduced concept of a civil partership, and they married in 2014 shortly after the legalization of same-sex marriage in the UK. Elton posted in 2016, "23 years ago when I met this extraordinary man, I never dreamed that one day I would be able to legally marry the man I love. 2 years ago that dream became a reality. I want to thank everyone that fought to make that dream possible. I also want to thank all the wonderful friends and family who loyally stand by us and support us every day."

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.

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.""
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 (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."
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."
