Aries compatibility with every sign
Aries with each of the twelve signs, by two rules: temperament from the elements and everyday pace from the modes. Pick a pair for what the two signs tend to bring each other.
Aries loves the way it does everything else: quickly, honestly and out loud. It wants someone who can keep up, answer back and forgive a short temper as fast as it forgets its own. What it brings is courage and a refusal to let a relationship go stale. What it finds hard is waiting, and partners who need things talked through for a long time before anything happens. Aries does best with people who enjoy a challenge and don't take its bluntness personally.
By these rules, its closest matches are Sagittarius, Gemini and Leo, and its hardest is Capricorn.

How does Aries show love?
Aries falls in love the way it starts a race: fast, in the open and with the whole body. The first message comes quickly, the plans for the weekend are made on the second date and the feelings are said out loud. You tend to show affection through action, such as turning up with the thing your partner mentioned once, defending them in a meeting or planning a trip. Aries does not play games for long, because pretending takes patience it does not have. When the spark fades the cooling is as visible as the heat was, so a partner always knows where they stand.
What does Aries need from a partner?
An Aries partner needs room to be first at something, and a person who answers back. Being agreed with all day is dull. What lasts is a partner with a spine of their own, a sense of humour about the temper and enough independence to have a day that is not about Aries. Tell an Aries what you want straight and the answer comes straight back.
Who is Aries most compatible with?
By the page's two rules, Aries pairs best with Sagittarius, Gemini and Leo. Sagittarius shares Aries's fire and its love of a plan that starts today, so the two can travel, argue and make up in an afternoon. Gemini brings quick wit and keeps up with a restless mind. Leo matches the warmth and the pride, and applauds an Aries who deserves it. In each case the two signs move at the same speed, which matters more to Aries than most things.
Who is hardest for Aries to date?
The hardest match for Aries by the same rules is Capricorn. The pace is the issue: Aries wants to move today and Capricorn prefers to arrange things properly first. Neither is wrong, and the pair can learn a great deal, but both have to say what they mean and ask what the other needs, since the habits that come naturally do not translate.
How does Aries handle an argument?
In an argument Aries is loud, direct and over it within the hour. It says the thing that is bothering it, expects the same of you and cannot understand why a grudge needs a week. The repair is just as plain: a hug, a joke, an apology said in one sentence. What helps is to let it speak first, answer the point and not the tone, and not to hold the temper against it afterwards.
What is Aries like as a friend and at work?
As a friend Aries is the one who texts 'are you free tonight?' and means it. At work it starts things, volunteers for the hard call and loses patience with a meeting that has no decision. Give it a clear goal and it is a fine ally.
Questions about Aries in love
Is Aries compatible with Libra?
They sit opposite on the wheel and attract by contrast. Libra brings tact and a gift for balance, Aries brings drive and directness, and each admires what it lacks. The pull is strong, and the lesson for Aries is to ask what Libra wants, because Libra will rarely say it first. Aries and Libra compatibility
How does an Aries behave when it loves someone?
Openly. Expect quick declarations, practical gifts and a protective streak. Aries shows love through effort and attention more than through quiet reassurance, so say what you need to hear if words are what you want.
