Two Aries understand each other without explaining anything. Both answer straight away, both say what they mean, both bring up a grievance the same day. Neither of them stores a grievance.
They share a sign, which means one element, one modality and one ruler, Mars. Formally this is a conjunction: there is no distance between the signs. Nobody here slows anything down, so speed and directness double and caution never appears. Everything starts easily and little of it gets finished.
They decide things in one evening
An idea another couple would think about for a month gets done here by the weekend, and nobody needs persuading.
A move, a new job or a large purchase is settled as fast as the question of where to have dinner. Sometimes that pays off and sometimes it all has to be redone.
One sign, twice over
Both charts start from the same point of the wheel — 0°, the Conjunction. Nothing here separates the two, and nothing balances them either.
Both signs belong to one element: Fire. The pair reacts to what happens the same way before a word is said about it.
Both signs belong to the same cross: Cardinal. They meet a change on the same beat, and neither of them is the one who gives way first.
Both signs answer to one planet, Mars, which is why the pair recognises itself almost at once.
What doubles, and what is missing
The first difficulty is unfinished business. Neither of them likes the second half of any job, and both lose interest on roughly the same day: the flat fills up with an abandoned language course, a half-done renovation and a plan for a business.
The second is big decisions. Nobody here says «let us wait until spring», so the two of them agree to a move or a loan in one evening and live with it for half a year.
One rule helps: anything above an agreed sum waits a day. A couple like this usually keeps that promise, because keeping it is short.
They make up easily and settle nothing
They raise their voices quickly and calm down just as quickly. The evening after a row is genuinely calm, because neither has anything left to be hurt about.
The trouble is that the reason stays unexamined. The same conversation about money, or about somebody’s relatives, starts over several times a year.
From outside it looks worse than it is
Friends who walk in on an argument leave certain it is over. A month later it turns out the two of them took out a joint mortgage and told nobody.
Couples like this rarely split up, and almost never over a row.
Work and friendship suit them better than living together, because there each one has a separate patch. One shared task goes badly: the argument about who is in charge starts immediately.
Compare the real charts
A Sun sign is only the outline. A synastry chart puts two full birth charts side by side — Moon, Venus, Mars and the houses — and shows where the two of you actually meet.

Answers
Aries and Aries: common questions
They do, and more easily than people expect. Neither has to guess what is wrong, because both say it plainly and hold nothing back.
Because objecting costs nothing here. Each says their piece immediately, which looks like constant conflict from outside and feels like ordinary conversation from inside.
They can, as long as each has their own patch and their own deadline. Together they do in a week what takes others a month. Running one project jointly does not work: neither knows how to give way.
They spend fast and rarely argue about amounts. Earning comes easier to them than saving: both are sure more will come in, and both are right until an expense turns up that cannot wait.
