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.

The overlap
Two charts, laid over each other
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie'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.

| Thin line, Venus to Mercury | QUINCUNX 1.09° |

Why they click
Values scores second highest of the five, which is the surprising part of a chart otherwise built from hard angles. Venus opposite Venus and three quincunxes describe two people oriented toward similar things from awkward positions rather than people who want different things. Seven aspects is a dense chart by the standards of this corpus, so there is a great deal of contact here even where little of it is easy.
Why they clash
Mars square Mars sits at 0.58 degrees, close to exact, and friction is the highest category by a wide margin. Two drives at a right angle that tight describes a permanent contest over pace and direction, with no natural way to divide the lead. Around it sit three quincunxes, the angle of endless adjustment, plus Sun opposite Mercury. Identity, communication and attraction all rest at the floor. Dense contact, almost none of it restful.
What each system says
Twelve systems, two people
The Suns are 167.6° apart, outside orb of any aspect, which is why identity reads as an empty channel above.
Rabbit and Rabbit are in neither the trines nor the clashes.
Guna Milan: 21.5 of 36
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.
21.5 of 36 points
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.

Frequently asked
Are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie astrologically compatible?
Their charts make 7 cross-aspects, the tightest at 0.58° and 1.09°. 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 quincunx mean between two charts?
A quincunx puts two placements at an awkward angle with no easy geometric relation, an adjustment rather than a flow or a clash. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have 3 quincunx contacts between them, more than any other type.
