(just things I've been noticing lately and wanted to write down before I forgot lol)
you tend to become friends with people whose moon sign is the house ruler of the house your moon is in. complicated? i.e. my moon is in the 3rd house, and the 3rd house is ruled by gemini, therefore i have a lot of friends with gemini moons (and those who aren't, usually have 3rd house moons!). it's such a comfortable friendship too, the kind you can talk about anything or nothing and still feel like it's okay.
mercury in the 1st usually have such loud (and lovable) laughs, even if they're shy. they don't even notice it, it's just who they are.
mercury in the 12th, however, usually have teakettle laughs, where it's just the faintest wheeze, and it's more of a visual thing than audible (i only make sounds when i'm out of breath).
in mother/children composite charts, you'll usually find a cancer or libra rising, though only if they're close.
speaking of composite, having a libra rising is probably the strongest thing a romantic couple could have, since you'll act around others as a couple first and foremost; there's not fierce individuality here, and you'll never wash your dirty laundry in public (that's usually a private thing, since Aries is in the 7th). people just see you as a natural duo.
never met a straight gemini venus (under 25). that's all. doesn't mean they can't be heterosexual, they just have at least experimented with queerness at some point.
back to friendships, i also noticed my closest friends also have the sun in the 11th house, like me?? my two oldest friends have it, and it's crazy because we are such natural friends, we just know we'll always be there for each other no matter what. so you'll usually identify better with people who have the sun in the same house as you do.
moon square moon works very well in synastry, as long as there are easier aspects elsewhere in the chart. ofc you'll find some habits/comforts strange, but you'll usually work even harder to understand each other as individuals.
easy sun-moon aspects are such a bliss... when you read old astrology books you'll usually get descriptions like: oh, your parents got along well, etc, etc... which, true for me, but it's also much more blissful than that: you easily recognize that your feelings are right. no matter what, your feelings will always align with who you see yourself as, even if you don't want them, you just know they're valid because they're not rational; they're your feelings.
leo placements will usually liven up the most melancholic charts. i mean, i am a virgo, for fuck's sake, but my leo venus... just makes me such an attention seeker sometimes (although i quickly regret it because the virgo in me hates attention), but mostly because i want to be loved. leo placements have this intrinsic need to be adored; not exactly put in a pedestal (because we can't live up to that), but just to be seen as the special beings we are and not just as another.
mutable mars/mutable dominants can't possibly do one thing at a time. okay, maybe we can, but it actually takes more work than trying to do two things at once. like, i can more easily read two books at the same time + make notes than try to focus ALL of my attention into one book. it took me such a long time to accept this because we are made to feel like we're wrong for having this amazing ability but? we're fucking great, actually.
just like leo livens up any chart, so does a capricorn moon bring down any chart. it's a sad reality but i have a fire dominant friends who are actually pretty outgoing and sociable but, after getting close, i noticed just how depressed they truly feel. it's not something we all feel comfortable displaying to everyone (vulnerability = death), but it's always there.
back to composite charts: i've seen written everywhere that the signs don't actually matter but, in my experience, they do. they give the chart its personality; a couple with Leo sun is going to see themselves wildly differently than a couple with a Scorpio one, for example. ignoring them just feels like laziness.
that's it for now. i'll probably make another one in the future, though :-)
