This page compares Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars, the four placements a birth date alone can place. Moon, Ascendant and Midheaven are left out here by design, not by omission, so nothing on this page is scored against a birth time it cannot trust.

MARS × MARS
No aspect inside orb. No built-in friction point shows up between the two Mars placements.
None
Scores rank how close a contact is to exact, not how well two people get along. A high friction score means the two Mars are in tight aspect, which is information, not a warning.
The overlap
Two charts, laid over each other
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards's Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Moon are drawn here, along with the house ring and ascendant axis both charts support. This is a complete chart of what is known, not a partial chart of what is not.

Why they click
Attraction reads 95, near the top of the scale. Every pairing of their personal planets crosses in both directions at once: Mercury and Venus, Venus and Mars, Mercury and Mars each meet from both sides. Venus sextiles Venus at 2.31 degrees on top of that, and Mars trines Mercury at 2.33. Seven contacts from four bodies is close to the maximum this engine can find.
Why they clash
The mutual contacts are not uniformly soft. Mercury squares Venus at 0.35 degrees, the tightest aspect in the pairing, while the return trip is a trine at 0.96. Mars opposes Venus at 0.95 and Venus squares Mars at 5.17. So the same two planets meet twice at opposite temperaments, easy one way and hard the other. Identity, communication and friction all read 30, which puts everything these charts have into the exchange itself.
What each system says
Twelve systems, two people
The Suns are 143.2° apart, outside orb of any aspect, which is why identity reads as an empty channel above.
Goat and Goat are in neither the trines nor the clashes.

Shared life events
Jagger and Richards meet again on Dartford railway station
The two had been at primary school together in Dartford and lost touch. They met again on platform two, where Richards noticed the Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records Jagger was carrying. The conversation that followed led to the band.Source ↗

Frequently asked
Are Mick Jagger and Keith Richards astrologically compatible?
Their charts make 7 cross-aspects, the tightest at 0.35° and 0.95°. Astrology does not score a relationship out of a hundred, and the number on this page counts how much contact two charts make, not how well two people do.
What does square mean between two charts?
A square puts two placements at a right angle, generating friction that tends to force action. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards have 2 square contacts between them, more than any other type.
