Guide to composite charts
The composite chart is a method used in astrology to know the dynamics of a relationship and to know both the positive ones and those that can be worked on. The method of midpoints is used to create this chart, since it is a way of "mixing" or "joining" the energies of the planets of both people to see how they get along with other planets, this with the purpose of seeing their dynamic, as previously stated.
🖤What’s the difference between a Synastry Chart and a Composite chart?
The clearest difference is that in the synastry chart we use two charts, yours and the other person's, while the Composite chart is a single chart.
In the synastry chart we compare your natal planets with the planets of the other person to find out how you get along as individuals, on your own without needing to be in a relationship. While in the Composite Chart we study the dynamics of you as a couple/relationship of any kind. It tells us about the way the relationship works and possible problems that may arise.
🖤Can I use the Composite chart for a relationship that it’s not romantic?
Yes you can! You can observe, analyze and study any relationship. Whether it's romantical, friendship, familiar, platonic or fictional. Just like the synastry.
🖤Next, a brief explanation of the meaning of some points of this chart and posts that I have made regarding each one. [This post will be in constant editing, because I want to cover several points in depth, for now we only have the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Rising and MC, but I plan to do the other planets until I reach Saturn and one or another significant point].
⚫The Sun in the composite chart represents the relationship itself, how it works and what area of life the relationship is most focused on. The essence of the relationship is seen with the position and aspects that the Sun makes. The Sun, in turn, can indicate to us those things that are necessary for the relationship to be at its best and to be sustained in general.

⚫The MC or Midheaven in this chart shows us the reputation of the couple. The sign they are in and the planets that are in this house can give us an idea of how they project the relationship to others. In other words, this house can tell us how other people see the couple and the type of couple they seem to be.
