Astro Notes
Synastry, Composite and Davison Edition
The synastry chart represents the chemistry between two individuals and composite is the relationship itself and how its perceived. In my personal opinion a good composite trumps difficult synastry as
how the energies manifest in synastry is totally dependent on ones individual chart.
And composite is somewhat a description of how the synastry contributes to the relationship.
Though synastry does show how difficult composite can be dealt with.
(my sun moon opposition is really showing lmao😩🙈)
While reading a synastry and composite chart most important are your dominant energies and aspects to those planets. Important and repeated themes in the relationship can be seen through common aspects in synastry and composite.
If you have a certain planetary energy prominent in your chart harsh aspects to that planet in composite would be easier to deal with.
For example I have very well aspected Pluto so when I see harsh aspects to Pluto in a composite or synastry it doesn't seem to affect me as negatively or have a huge impact as it might for another person.
Also, credits to @neptunianfae for giving me some insight on few aspects and overlays!! 💕
Synastry overlays
{based on whole sign system}
⭐ Moon in 8h synastry - OVERSHARING from the moment you meet especially on the 8h person's part! The 8h person feels like they can trust the moon person with everything, it's a very subconscious knowing.
☀️ moon in 3rd synastry is so beautiful and works so well in any relationship but i love seeing it in friendships!! the moon person would make 3rd house person feel so comfortable talking about how they feel and give them that validation they might need. they would literally never run out of things to talk about. The moon person sees the 3rd house person as extremely understanding and super fun too!
🌙 In 6h synastry the planet person will accept the house person in every way. They would accept every insecurity and every quirk. It can also make the planet person act nervous or be overly neurotic around the house person. The house person cares DEEPLY about the planet person. They LOVEE SPENDING TIME WITH EACHOTHER they type of couple that would just love to coexist... ✨Domestic bliss✨
⭐ Having someone's Venus/Jupiter in your 8h can make the planet person want to share their resources with you even if it's not something they'd do in general. They might even go out of their way to share things with you that they'd never share with anyone else. The sun person can also bring out 9h person's beliefs and make them think about it more. These 2 could also talk a lot about higher education and making plans together to just have fun.
☀️ Sun in 9h synastry can show two people who'd bond over their belief systems and things they have been taught to believe. They love having deep philosophical conversations.
🌙 mars in 6h synastry can make the mars person want to 'perform' well for the 6h person they can also be very nervous about it at first. The 6h person finds it extremely endearing🥺🥺
⭐ I love seeing MC aspects and overlays. It's honestly so charming and encouraging! The house person can seriously benefit from these. Having a lot of positive aspects to MC, angles conjunct MC and Pluto conjunct MC can make the house person really transform their identity in the world, can bring about necessary changes and an abundance of opportunities in the 10h person's life.
☀️ 1st house synastry can be so superficial if not backed up by water triplicity (4h, 8h and 12h) as the nature of water is to reflect and can be felt both ways. (Moon in 1h being an exception)
🌙 4h synastry is so precious the planet person changes your definition of home and it's sweet and comfortable. I call it comfortable silence overlay lmao.
Aspects in synastry and composite
⭐Venus square/ opposite saturn in synastry shows that venus PERCEIVES saturn to be cold and harsh but he need not be like that. Venus seems to take criticism coming from saturn more seriously than from anyone else. Here venus needs to learn to be less defensive and realise saturn only wants what's best for venus and saturn needs to learn to convey his concerns and criticism in a less judgemental and critical way.
This contact can also bring about a lot of anxiousness insecurities and fear of losing one another especially on Saturn's part. The saturn person has to be secure within themselves to keep the dynamic healthy as eventually saturn can get restrictive. This is where mercury comes in XD but I'll get to that in a bit.
Any planetary contact to saturn in synastry represents karma so harsh aspects to saturn can also indicate the two might find it difficult to come together as a couple due to external circumstances. Letting go here is extremely difficult as saturn is literally super glue.
{ As I have mentioned above our own natal charts have to be considered in this. An Aquarius/Capricorn moon/venus can handle saturn synastry comparatively better than any other sign as their ruler itself is saturn. Someone with Saturn's aspects to venus in natal chart would even find this synastry comfortable.}
☀️saturn opposite or square venus in composite though represents a theme of pining and not being able to give or be given the kind of affection one wants. both REALLY want it to work and give that affection but it just gets blocked or is difficult. In composite it's not about the relationship forming that is the issue but it's the meeting and spending time together which is scarce.
🌙 sun opposite/square saturn in composite can show difficulty in a relationship forming. Oppositions can show external influences not allowing them whereas squares can show conflict of interest. Sun conjunct saturn though do tend to come together as a couple but after a long period of time.
⭐ sun square/opposite saturn in synastry shows clashing of egos but also companionship and reliability. They both know they would always be there for eachother even though they might not always agree with eachother.
{ Queue my rant about mercury being underrated and Neptune being shat on 😤 }
A well aspected mercury is very important in both composite and synastry!!! Squares can only be handelled with patience and communication. it kinda sucks to not see mercury get the attention it deserves in synastry. i would take difficult saturn synastry over difficult mercury synastry ANYDAY. harmonious aspects to mercury make the other difficult aspects easier since you are COMMUNICATING YOUR ISSUES and the tension felt in the relationship. And square contacts specifically require conscious effort which isnt achievable without clear communication.
Neptune shows idealisation, illusion, deception etc but it's also dreaminess, mercy and compassion and you NEED a certain amount of idealisation and a LOT of forgiveness to make any relationship work. The only thing in MY opinion that can mellow down Saturn's harshness is Neptune's compassion and mercury's wit.
☀️ Moon and venus shows your needs and wants (moon- needs, venus - wants) so having both the planets well aspected can show both your needs and wants being met.
🌙 The house/house cusp your composite chart ruler falls in shows under what circumstances or setting the two people met.
1st house ruler in 4h gemini almost in the 5h and 12h aquarius - met at a small house party in the neighborhood invited by friends with alcohol/substances involved XD
⭐ Moon mercury and moon moon synastry is so wholesome!! Mercury person can't shut up around the moon person 😂 and moon moon is just so easy and relaxed where you just know the other person gets you.
☀️ Pisces rising in composite is the couple that EVERYONE WAS ROOTING FOR LMAO
🌙sun in virgo in composite chart can show putting in a lot of work and being very patient to make the relationship work or to come together.
⭐ with a lot of 12th house emphasis in synastry and composite you can see that the two individuals have an unbreakable bond they love to be around eachother and when they are together its like no one exists🥺 a lot of spiritual conversations here too!!
🌙 saturn aspects are extremely important with uranus aspects in Composite to ground round a relationship and for longevity. honestly, such a boon with uranian aspects. And Uranus aspects add electricity and fun to saturn's rigidity.
⭐chiron in 7th in davison chart could mean that the relationship itself becomes the wound after some time. or that one could be in the relationship to heal past relationship wounds.
☀️ Also natal planets in aspect or CONJUNCT to composite aspects show what part of the relationship affects you and how. Having both people's natal conjunct planets in the composite shows that the relationship will be important to both the people.
🌙 saturn in 7h of composite is a common aspect seen in familial relationships.
I AM SO HAPPY TO BE AT LEAST A LITTLE ACTIVE AT LAST OMG🙈🙈 I HOPE YOU ALL LIKE IT!!! 💕💕
