I’m sorry, Rasta. There isn’t space for this kind of personal counseling here, and these aspects are meaningless without the context of the entire chart.

Thank you for your kind words about the site. If you email me at alcuin9@gmail.com, I will send you my birth details. I don’t mind people knowing them, I just don’t publish the data on the internet. For the record, I’m a double Virgo, Sun and rising (Sun in the twelfth), with a balsamic Moon/Uranus conjunction in Leo.

thank you for your response,i really appreciate it. i love your site and i’m working my way through all your articles. i do have an issue looking at things big picture, synastry is very complicated for me to wrap my head around. you are so awesome! seriously, you have given me so much insight. what sign are you ? (is that a too personal question?) i’m sorry, even though clearly i do not possess the understanding to really interpret your chart, i’m reallllly curious. sorry, if i’ve offended you in anyway. and thank you again

We get into dangerous territory if we fragment charts into lists of aspects. Real synastry takes into consideration each person’s psychological needs and relationship inclinations. Whether you are better off with your current Moon/Venus-Mercury conjunction or whether you would be better with a Sun/Moon conjunction has to do with whether the Sun or Moon is part of your relationship ‘signature.’ Anyway, it’s better not to speculate. You were born with the chart you were born with, and that is no accident. It’s better to do the best with what we actually have, and a Moon/Venus-Mercury conjunction is no small thing.

so the person i know has his moon conjunct my mercury and Venus. but my sun,mercury and venus are all in the same sign, my mercury and venus are conjunct each other, but not conjunct my sun, and his moon is also not conjunct my sun. However, i was curious, and if he had been born a day later, his moon would be almost exactly conjunct my sun, but not conjunct my mercury or venus. would it have been more beneficial do you think, for his moon to be conjunct only my sun? or is it better the way it is?

Hi Dawn, Great article as usual! I found really helpful in better understanding a synastry conjunction I had been wondering about. I recently began a committted relationship in which my Saturn is right on his Mercury and his Saturn (and Chiron) is conjunct my Mercury/Sun. It sure feels like he and I are in it come hell or high water even though it’s just begun!

Hi Dawn
an advantage of being up at 6 am(UK time) – mind too active to sleep – is that I have time and peace to browse. This is such an insightful piece, written with your usual elegance and impact. Speaking as one with six Leo planets including the Sun all conjunct with Saturn and Pluto in the Twelfth House, all linked to both Uranus and Neptune, I can certainly validate….. “….we’re meant to live out a personal drama of the outer planet’s creative force, and it’s usually very hard on us poor mortals. We can carry the archetype not only for ourselves, but for those around us…..” The main wrestles of my life have been with my familial inheritance and with my relationship with that which lies beyond this world…..

However, the good news for similarly challenged folk out there is that conjunctions really DO function as that grit in the oyster, provided that you take on the work in as honest a way as you can. I have a CV which is a pearl of great variety and scope – and my husband and I are still happily wrestling away after a tempestuous thirty years!

Well, there you go…a Sun/Ascendant conjunction is usually lovely–again, no guarantee of longevity, but usually a very warm and affectionate tie. Conjunctions from the lights to the angles are very powerful (more on this next time) and immediately felt. Good luck, and Happy Holidays to you, too.

Thank you Dawn. I understand and I receive your words of wisdom. I guess like so many I thought that conjunctions were a “whoo hoo” factor. We even have more than I mentioned. His ascendant is 20 degrees Leo and my sun is at 23 degrees Leo. I will heed your advice and use tolerance as a mantra. He is very tolerant and level headed. A welcome change into my life. I pray we’ll be fine also too. FYI, for our first date he went to church with me. Thanks again and Happy Holidays. Pearl
