Sexy Reese Witherspoon has recently been seen with the charming Jake Gyllenhaal. Witherspoon and Gyllenhaal would definitely represent a high profile and couple to keep one’s eyes on. Soon enough, people will probably start calling then “Wyllenhaal," “Githerspoon," or some other catchy celebrity couple phrase. But taking a step deeper, does this star studded relationship stand a chance in Hollywood? By using Chinese Astrology to examine their personalities, Firepig.com attempts to determine if this relationship will result in a ring or a fling.



Chinese Astrology love match readings are derived from calculating their compatibility based on their birth year, birth month, birth day, and birth hour. In addition, it is important to note that Jake Gyllenhaal is also five years younger than Reese Witherspoon.

Since it is ladies first, Miss Witherspoon is born in the year of the Fire Dragon in Chinese Astrology. The Fire Element in her Chinese Zodiac provides her vitality and brilliance. The Dragon in her Chinese Zodiac gives her a flamboyant, seductive, chic persona. Furthermore the Dragon is a karmic sign therefore Witherspoon will experience some extreme peaks and valleys in her life.

On the other hand, Jake Gyllenhaal is a Metal Monkey in Chinese Astrology. The Monkey in the Chinese Zodiac is usually very versatile and playful. Monkeys bring great joy and happiness to the lives of people they interact with. Quite often, they are extremely charming. The Metal Element in the Chinese Zodiac makes people ambitious, driven, and intense.

Since Metal is a cold element, they usually are more reserved and turn inward to confront problems rather than to reach out to others for help. Mixing the Monkey and Metal creates someone who is charming and ambitious. This mix can often inflate a Monkey’s ego; however, a good does of their patented charm draw people right back to them.

Looking at the Witherspoon and Gyllenhaal’s Chinese Astrology love match, Firepig.com generally thinks that Monkeys and Dragons coexist with relative ease. Yet at the same time the Fire Element melts the Metal Element in Chinese astrology which can lead to Witherspoon being destructive in Gyllenhaal’s life. Generally Monkeys also tend to be very trusting in others in their youth, so since Witherspoon is older Gyllenhaal could very well be in for a rude awakening to Witherspoon’s potent Fire Element.

Firepig.com thinks that most gossip magazines should think twice before anointing a nickname like “Wyllenhaal" or “Githerspoon" because the chance of love flourishing is less than 50 / 50 for this sexy power couple in Hollywood.
