Aries is fierce, fun-loving, and always the life of the party. More than any other sign, Aries knows how to love strongly. Despite this, however, a major misconception about our sweet rams is that they are too freedom-oriented to find success in relationships. Yes, Aries are impatient, but that doesn’t mean they’re afraid of commitment!
To fall in love with an Aries is to realize that their characteristic exaltation translates into unparalleled passion. So who is best suited to keep up with that delicious Aries joie de vivre? Here’s our ultimate Aries compatibility ranking.
These are the most compatible signs with Aries in love, ordered from lowest to highest
Aries
Some might call Aries headstrong, but in general, sweet rams are pretty calm. In many ways, every sign is a good match for Aries when it comes to romance, with the one exception: another Aries! Yes, the Aries-Aries love combination is notoriously tricky. Although two Aries are dynamic business partners and inseparable best friends, when it comes to romance, these two tend to connect on a wave of passion that wears off very quickly.
Capricorn
We have shared before that Aries and Capricorn together are complicated co-workers. But what about romantic relationships? Well, in many ways, things are just as complicated, mainly because these two end up being all work and no play.
Mars, the planet of action and endurance, feels empowered in both signs, resulting in a connection that’s more about gaining momentum and less about savoring the sweetness. This could turn into a very flirtatious, almost aggressive start to a relationship, but at some point, every date could turn into a business meeting.
Cancer
Aries and Cancer are cardinal signs, which means they are always the first to arrive at the party. They both love to start. That’s why this relationship has no problem starting, but can it last? Cancer brings out the softer side of Aries, while Aries pushes Cancer to take more risks.
In general, Cancer is extremely sensitive, and Aries inadvertently finds that Cancer’s feelings are often hurt. These two generally have a very beautiful, almost innocent connection when things are going well. But since they have very different approaches to conflict, it can be difficult to come back from arguments once they get past the honeymoon phase.
scorpio
Aries and Scorpio are the two zodiac signs ruled by Mars, the planet of action and aggression, so things are sure to be spicy in this matchup. Although these signs share a rule and therefore bring to life a similar energy, their values do not automatically align.
These two hit it off quickly and often make it work as friends with benefits or hookup partners. But things get more complicated when someone, usually a Scorpio, picks up on real feelings and wants to define the relationship. Scorpio is all about emotional responsibility and while Aries is often honest to a fault, his blunt approach to life can easily hurt Scorpio’s ego. Aries values drive, while Scorpio values consistency, and over time, this difference affects both of them.
Aquarium
Aries-Aquarius is a very interesting combination of fire and air. Since both signs are known for their independence, Aries and Aquarius love themselves first and foremost. Both are trusting and probably have secure attachment styles. Although these two can have a lot of fun together while respecting boundaries, there is a certain warmth missing from this connection.
Aquarius is cold and calculating, while Aries can be tactless. Together, unless these two are truly willing to commit, things may never move beyond the surface level. As friends though, these two are the life of the party, planning lunches for the whole group and making everyone laugh in the group chat.
Taurus
Aries are trailblazers who prefer to start running and refuse to stop until they reach the finish line (whether it’s a career goal or just target mileage for an afternoon run). Taurus, on the other hand, prefers the scenic route. When these two get together, and they rarely do, Taurus can feel like he’s always losing the competition.
As a Mars-ruled sign, Aries is super-competitive and finds Taurus’ laid-back demeanor a turnoff. These two can sometimes fall into an opposites attraction relationship where both can grow by paying attention to each other’s needs. But because both are almost radical in their stubbornness, it’s rare that either is really willing to put in the effort to keep things going long-term.
Lion
There are no other signs in the zodiac that have as healthy egos as Aries and Leo, so when these two come together, the level of trust can be truly blinding. Although their presence can be annoying to those around them, these two just can’t get enough of each other and the chemistry is overwhelmingly good.
When they finally make it out of the bedroom, this couple loves to get dressed up and head out on the town. Between them, there is never enough ostentation. The concern, which is present with any fire-for-fire combination, is that the spark will eventually be extinguished. But until she does, these two should enjoy the passionate ride.
Pisces
Aries-Pisces is a very underrated couple! Although it may seem like these two have very little in common, with Pisces being known as the emotional space cadet and Aries being known as the trailblazing adventurer, they tend to bring out the best in each other.
The one area where these two run into a problem is their communication. Aries prefers to keep conversations light, simple, and to the point, while Pisces tends to get poetic, taking hours to get to the heart of a feeling. Yet somehow, between the endless patience of Pisces and the restlessness of Aries, this couple somehow meets in the middle and keeps things flowing.
Pound
With Libra and Aries, the question is: do opposites attract? Aries and Libra are opposite signs, which means they have similar goals, but they achieve them in completely different ways. Libras want to connect, and as cardinal signs, they lead through the amplification of others. They often reserve their own opinions, unless they feel it is necessary to share them.
Aries, on the other hand, leads through the assertion of his own will. It’s not that they’re totally full of themselves, it’s that they don’t understand why others wouldn’t. They want to hear what’s on their mind. Although these two disagree, they have a lot to learn from each other. Libra softens Aries and Aries gives Libra permission to be more selfish. Also, the chemistry between the opposites is usually quite good. Sure, this couple isn’t the most obvious pairing, but when they give each other a chance, the relationship helps both people grow.
Gemini
Although outsiders might find these two a bit boisterous, Aries and Gemini are the ultimate power couple. No one can make an Aries laugh like a Gemini, and what Aries doesn’t have the most amazing laugh? While no one motivates a Gemini like an Aries. Although they are both spring babies who occasionally get involved in juvenile games, they also know how to respect each other’s boundaries.
Both are fearless and encourage each other to explore their kinky side in the bedroom. The only problem with this relationship is that it can sometimes feel like Peter Pan hanging out with the lost boys. No one wants the buzz of being the adult in the room. But eventually, even «growing up» becomes playful competition for this lovely couple, making them successful in both business and pleasure.
Virgo
Yes, Virgo and Aries seem like an unlikely pairing. But hear us out: these two actually have a lot more in common than the usual stereotypes about each sign would lead us to believe. Virgo is mutable earth: practical, adaptable, and dedicated to service. Aries, on the other hand, is the cardinal fire: enterprising, excitable and committed to achieving goals.
When you put them together, they don’t sound that different, do they? Aries runs up mountains while Virgos move those mountains for the people they love. This couple knows how to get things done. Romantically, these two excel at both acts of service and quality time. They’re both great communicators in the bedroom, too, so things start and stay hot.
Sagittarius
Aries and Sagittarius are fire signs, which makes this pairing too difficult to handle… Aries is a troublemaker and Sagittarius is a wandering sage. Together, these two make utopian visions come true. As a Mars-ruled sign, Aries has no problem with the chase, but what they love about Sagittarius is that there’s never any question about what the other person is thinking.
These two have an almost psychic connection, born from their shared desires, especially when it comes to sex and having fun together.
