This page compares the nine bodies a birth date alone can place, Sun through Pluto, and lists the Chiron and lunar node contacts alongside them. The Moon is drawn as the span it could have moved through and is scored in nothing here; the ascendant axis and the house ring are left out by design, not by omission, so nothing on this page is scored against a birth time it cannot trust.
The overlap
Where the two charts touch
Brad Pitt’s Venus and Jennifer Aniston’s Mars are 0.37 degrees from an exact sextile.
Both birth times are exact, so the Moon joins Sun through Pluto on both axes, and every contact also carries the house it falls in on the other person’s chart. The ascendant axis and the house ring are drawn.

Trines and sextiles are soft, squares, oppositions and quincunxes hard. A conjunction depends on which two bodies meet, so it carries no tone here.
Why they click
Venus sextile Mars at 0.03 degrees is effectively exact, the closest contact in this entire set of pairs. Venus and Mars in easy aspect describes attraction that flows rather than fights, and attraction is by far the highest category here as a result. Sun sextile Sun at 3.18 supports it with a compatible sense of identity, and Venus conjunct Mercury adds warmth to how one speaks to the other.
Why they clash
The reverse Venus-Mars contact is a square at 1.39 degrees, so the same pairing of planets runs easy in one direction and hard in the other. That asymmetry is worth noting: what feels effortless from one side meets resistance from the other. Identity sits slightly below the floor, and communication, friction and values all rest on it. Four aspects total, weighted almost entirely into one category.
What each system says
Twelve systems, two people
This is what comparing two charts system by system looks like: the same birth data on both sides, read against each other one system at a time.
The Suns are 57.5° apart, close enough to feed the identity category above.
A second tradition
Guna Milan (Ashtakoot)
Guna Milan is the compatibility method used in Vedic matchmaking, traditionally consulted before an arranged marriage. It scores eight factors between two Moon placements on a 36-point scale, shown here as what this one tradition reads: not a verdict, and not averaged with the Western reading above, which may disagree.
The reading
18.5 of 36
Two things stated plainly rather than left silent: Varna and Vashya use a directional rule from traditional bride/groom roles, applied here in the order the two people are listed on this page rather than assigning either role. Bhakoot dosha's most common cancellation, matching rashi lords, is applied; Nadi dosha carries no cancellation here, though same-nakshatra-different-pada is sometimes cited elsewhere as easing it. Mangal (Kuja) dosha is a separate check and isn't part of this reading.
