Sources conflict on the birth time. No recorded verification, so houses and the rising sign are not shown.
Note on this rating: Birth time 05:26, Rodden DD (conflicting or unverified sources) via astrotheme.com (John_Mayer). Treat houses and angles as unavailable; read planets and aspects only.
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
John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston's Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars are drawn here, the four placements a birth date alone can place with no birth time required. This is a complete chart of what is known, not a partial chart of what is not.
| Thin line, Sun to Sun | TRINE 0.23° |
| Thin line, Venus to Mercury | TRINE 1.16° |

Why they click
Sun trine Sun at 0.23 degrees is close to exact and gives identity the top score here. A trine that tight between two Suns describes people who recognise each other quickly and need very little explaining. Mercury trine Sun, Venus trine Mercury and Mars trine Mars follow the same pattern, so four of the six aspects run easy across identity, thinking, affection and pace alike.
Why they clash
Mars is the awkward planet. It sits quincunx one Sun at 2.61 degrees and opposite the other Mercury at 5.05, so drive is the one thing that does not settle into the general ease. Friction scores mid-scale as a result. Communication, attraction and values all rest at the floor. A comfortable chart with one persistent irritant running through the middle of it.
What each system says
Twelve systems, two people
The Suns are 120.5° apart, close enough to feed the identity category above.
Snake and Monkey are in neither the trines nor the clashes.
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.
Guna Milan needs an exact birth time for both people. The Moon changes nakshatra roughly once a day, so an estimated time can place the whole reading in the wrong one, and at least one birth time here isn't exact.

Frequently asked
Are John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston astrologically compatible?
Their charts make 6 cross-aspects, the tightest at 0.23° and 1.16°. 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.
Why isn't there a house ring on the chart above?
At least one of John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston doesn't have a curated, non-estimated birth time, so a house placement would be a guess. This page only shows what a birth date alone can place.
What does trine mean between two charts?
A trine puts two placements in easy relation, a flow that takes little effort to access. John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston have 4 trine contacts between them, more than any other type.
