When Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker went from longtime friends to a full-blown couple in 2021, fans were equal parts surprised and obsessed. Their whirlwind romance, PDA-packed Instagram posts, and lavish Italian wedding in 2022 had everyone asking: Are these two written in the stars—or just a steamy fling? Let’s break down their zodiac compatibility to see if Aries and Scorpio can really go the distance.
Kourtney Kardashian, born April 18, is an Aries—a fire sign known for its boldness, independence, and unfiltered energy. Travis Barker, born November 14, is a Scorpio—a water sign famous for its intensity, emotional depth, and magnetic mystery (via Marie Claire). On paper, this pairing is what astrologers call a quincunx: an awkward angle that can lead to friction. But in real life? Sparks fly.
Kourtney Kardashian Is an Aries and Travis Barker is a Scorpio
Their charts reveal a deeper connection. Kourtney’s Mars (planet of action and sex) aligns with Travis’s Moon (emotions) in Aries, creating an “off-the-charts sexual and emotional connection.” This fiery Moon-Mars combo means they not only turn each other on but also understand each other on a gut level.
“It’s clear to see that Kourtney and Travis have chemistry when you look at their charts,” astrologer Rachel Lang tells Women’s Health. “This is a fiery couple with a lot of passion. The intensity of Travis’s Scorpio Sun is a match for Kourtney’s feisty Aries Sun.” When combined, you get the kind of explosion you just can’t look away from, no matter how much you might want to.
Strong Connection and Family Ties
Travis’s Cancer rising and Kourtney’s Jupiter in Cancer add a nurturing, family-oriented layer to their relationship. This celestial combo brings joy, optimism, and a shared focus on home life. It’s no wonder they’ve blended their families and welcomed their first child together, Rocky, in November 2023.
While Aries and Scorpio might not be the most obvious match, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker seem to defy the odds. Their relationship is a blend of fiery passion and deep emotional connection, added to by their mutual respect and shared values. However, there is no telling if differences will allow them to stand the test of time.
