A Compatibility Guide for Aries<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Are you an Aries, or do you have a friend, relative or partner born under that sign?\u00a0Here is how you engage with the other signs.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Aries Sun with Aries Sun<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

A dynamic duo, who probably believe in having a daily argument to clear the air!\u00a0 They may put a lot of energy into expressing their views, but can put aside and forget their differences fairly easily.\u00a0 Needless to say, there\u00a0 is a lot of passion in this relationship, and perhaps a shared interest in physical activities such as sport, e.g. football.<\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Taurus Sun<\/span> <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As neighbouring signs, they may share planets in each other’s signs, and understand each other well.\u00a0 This partnership tends to work very well if the Taurean allows the Aries to lead, and enjoys supporting the Aries. Traditionally, Aries is ruled by Mars and Taurus by Venus, so John Gray’s book: “Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus” would have much to say to these two, whichever way round the sexes may be, or indeed whether homosexual, bi-sexual, transgender, pan-sexual or any other combination.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Victoria Beckham and David Beckham<\/em><\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Gemini Sun<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Good and lively compatibility.\u00a0 Aries adds energy and activity, so providing they have shared interests, such as sport, they can do a lot together. They are a dynamic duo, an action team!\u00a0 In this partnership, Aries initiates a physical work-out (as in \u201clet\u2019s go to the gym\u201d!) and Gemini brings about the mental gymnastics (as in \u201cwhy are we going to the gym?\u00a0 Let\u2019s go hiking or biking, or play chess.\u201d). If some of their planets meet in Taurus, they may have artistic or musical interests in common.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Elton John and Bernie Taupin (song-writing duo)<\/em><\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Cancerian Sun<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The approach to life for these two are poles apart.\u00a0 The Aries wonders why the Cancerian has to make life so complicated.\u00a0 It\u2019s straightforward isn\u2019t it?\u00a0 And the Cancerian wonders how the Aries can fail to get emotionally involved.\u00a0 The Crab may sometimes judge the Aries pronouncements as insensitive.\u00a0 It is not the easiest of connections.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Neil Kinnock and Glenys Kinnock (married 50 years)<\/em><\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Leo Sun****<\/span> <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a really sunny combination, but these two are both born leaders, so they might need to take it in turns to lead.\u00a0 Or they may create a group around them who are happy for them to host gatherings.\u00a0 They can create a really feel good ambience.<\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Virgo Sun<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These two have very different energies, but can bring out what the other needs.\u00a0 The Virgo could have a quiet energy, with a patient attention to detail.\u00a0 In contrast, Aries can be impulsive and fiery.\u00a0 They can both be practical, though, in different ways.\u00a0 Virgo can persuade the Aries to slow down, and Aries can influence the Virgo to flow more and not get bogged down.\u00a0 Virgo practicality brings realism, and Aries practicality brings physical momentum, so in this way they can work together.<\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Libra Sun<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These two signs pull in opposite directions, but can balance each other.\u00a0 Libra can bring peace to Aries, and Aries can bring energy and movement to the equation.\u00a0 The colour for Aries is red, and the colour for Libra is blue, so the combination in purple or violet can bring the two together in unity.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Ola Jordan and James Jordan, dance partners and married 13 years<\/em><\/p>\n

Aries \u00a0Sun with Scorpio Sun<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These two can be quite a go-ahead partnership, with plenty of drive to get things done.\u00a0 They are both very passionate, too.\u00a0 Occasionally, this can make for a quarrelsome duo, however, which may not work.\u00a0 Others may find them quite forceful and full on, if they can\u2019t match their energies.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Debbie McGee and Paul Daniels<\/em><\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Sagittarius Sun****<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A good blend of two fire signs, with plenty of warmth between them.\u00a0 There may be some anger issues, especially if Aries is in a grump, but generally these two can accomplish anything.\u00a0 Aries forgives easily, so any issues tend to blow over quickly.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond (shared love of fast cars)<\/em><\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Capricorn Sun<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These two signs are in squared relationship to each other, so may not be easy to work out.\u00a0 Both can be self-centred, and may not put the relationship first.\u00a0 Capricorn may put up emotional walls, and Aries can be a battering ram.\u00a0 Factors other than the Sun may help to make the relationship work, such as sympathetic Moons.\u00a0 Aries can bring warmth to the Capricornian, and Capricorn can bring discipline to the Arien, which may be exactly what the other needs.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Mary Archer and Jeffrey Archer<\/em><\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Aquarius Sun<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This is a dynamic combination, very active and quick-moving.\u00a0 Aries moves fast physically, and Aquarius thinks at the speed of light.\u00a0 They both have leadership qualities, so can initiate projects and get things going, though they may vie for top dog.\u00a0 Never a dull moment!<\/p>\n

Aries Sun with Pisces Sun<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These two may have planets in each other\u2019s signs, being neighbours, and that may give them some common ground.\u00a0 Otherwise, they are very different: Aries is all action, and Pisces is all dreaming.\u00a0 They can certainly learn from each other, being such extremes.\u00a0 And they may also admire each other.<\/p>\n

Famous Example: Pattie Boyd and Eric Clapton (married 9 years)<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

A full compatibility analysis details every component of the two birthcharts in relation to each other, not just the Sun sign.\u00a0 As there is a lot of work involved, it is my most expensive service, at \u00a345.<\/p>\n

Aspects<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Venus re-enters Pisces in the early hours of tomorrow morning, so for the rest of today enjoy the straightforward refreshing vibe of Venus in Aries, telling it like it is from the heart.\u00a0 Venus in Pisces is idealistic, in an emotional and devotional way, e.g. immersing itself in the ideal of perfect love, or the unconditional love of the expanded heart, and you may find yourself teary in a sentimental way.\u00a0 You may be harking back to old models of love, e.g. old patterns in your life, or literally old historical patterns such as courtly chivalry.\u00a0 The emancipation of modern times may need to be weighed against old-fashioned values, if only to discard them.\u00a0 Venus hovers at the end of Pisces for the rest of the month, returning to Aries for another fresh start at the end of the month.\u00a0 This gives you a chance to review your love life, and what your heart desires.\u00a0 If you are an Aries, today’s blog may be of especial interest in this respect.<\/p>\n

Later on, Mercury trines the North Node, which may offer you information leading to a more constructive karmic avenue.\u00a0 You may receive insights along these lines.\u00a0 There may be a sense of destiny about the day, and you may make a gesture of intent.\u00a0 Progress can be made through writing, communication and publishing ventures. The North Node, which retrogrades, is in the first degree of Virgo, about to enter Leo, so if you have any Virgoan karmic projects (e.g. health, study, crafts) they may be completing their cycle of being at this time, and there may even be an element of perfectionism in their execution.\u00a0 North Node in Leo will be a different kettle of fish, and again this change will come at the end of the month, or into May if you take the True Node reading.\u00a0 I will therefore write about this at a later date, but for now be aware of completing some aspect of karma related to Virgoan concerns.<\/p>\n

The most dynamic day this week is Thursday (6th) which is impacted by a trine between Mars and Pluto.\u00a0 If you can utilize this trine, you may find you have huge reserves of energy, a real power source, with which to deal with a major concern or activity, which may be practical or psychological.\u00a0 Some people may find the reverse, that the huge energy of this aspect actually wipes them out as they cannot integrate it: if you find this is you, try to take time out to rest, observe what is happening, and process.\u00a0 You may be able to oversee those who are doing the hard physical graft!\u00a0 Or just make the tea.<\/p>\n

There is a counteractivity going on that day (and both events occur early in the morning) in that Saturn is stationary prior to turning retrograde.\u00a0 So there is a strong current of inertia pulling alongside the drive of the Mars-Pluto trine.\u00a0 You may find there are actually two contingents working, or not working, alongside each other: the go-aheads, and those standing in the way of progress (who may have good reasons).\u00a0 This is a long-term feature, as Saturn does not go direct again until late August.\u00a0 It is a period of review, and stuckness in some ways for some area of your life (Saturn is in late Sagittarius, if you know which House it falls in for you).\u00a0 Saturn is also hovering at the Galactic Centre, which makes it a more heavyweight consideration.\u00a0 It poses a definite “Why are we here?” question.\u00a0 How you deal with Saturn retrograde depends to some extent on your relationship with Saturn at this stage in your life, e.g. are you impatient to hustle events on, or can you wait for them to happen in their own time?\u00a0 Are you willing to look at the blocks or research the reasons behind delays?\u00a0 Some of us prefer the “devil we know” realism of Saturn to the “chancer” that is Jupiter.<\/p>\n

Friday (7th) Jupiter opposes the Sun, which may be good-humoured enough, but not necessarily on the right track.\u00a0 It is one aspect of the prankster, where one person may think something is funny, but someone else may not share that view.\u00a0 You may be tempted to let rip, or make a bid for freedom, but need to weigh up the consequences.\u00a0 Freedom is a great ideal, but the circumstances may not be right, or it may not sit well with someone you have made a commitment to at this time.\u00a0 You can do something positive with that desire and energy, such as plan or book a holiday break in the Sun for later in the year.\u00a0 Or use that energy to cheer someone on who is not quite feeling it.<\/p>\n

Not the cheeriest of endings to the week, Venus squares Saturn on Saturday (8th), so you will need some of the Mars-Pluto and Jupiter-Sun energy lingering in your system glowing into Saturday.\u00a0 Venus interacting in this way with Saturn helps you to see what elements in relationships you need to let go of.\u00a0 For example, some gradual deterioration of an elderly person in your life may get you down, and set you thinking.\u00a0 The song “Let it Go” from Frozen may do the trick for you, but personally I find it annoying!\u00a0 Just let go, with grace, however you need to do it.\u00a0 You do need to face reality on Saturday though, because the following day (Sunday 9th) brings a square of the Sun with Pluto and a new cycle of Mercury Retrograde, so you need to clear a path emotionally on Saturday.<\/p>\n
