Astrology Observations, Part 1 (Mostly synastry)
I had heard it before, but it is SO true: a Venus in Aries guy will tell you if he likes you 😂😂😂 If he doesn't, he doesn't like you. I'm thinking of an Aquarius Sun, Sag moon, Aqua Mercury, Venus & Mars in Aries.
Gemini risings learned how to adapt their personality when they were little kids to fit in better & make friends. It breaks my heart to realize I had to do this because I didn't vibe with a lot of people born my birth year.
Sun square moon has to be one of the hardest things to overcome in a synastry chart. Remember, a synastry chart is when we overlay two natal, or birth, charts on top of each other and see how they match up. I had this with my ex-roommate (there's a reason why she's an ex-roommate haha), and our Moon trine Moon couldn't overcome that. We were both Libra moons and Gemini risings. She's a Virgo Sun, and I'm a Capricorn Sun. (Both earth suns) You'd think we'd be best friends based on that, but yeah...sun square moon...
Sun square Sun is also very difficult, especially when the aspect is even tighter. My older self finds it hard to believe I was chasing a guy who I had a Sun square Sun with not too long ago. He was a 1-degree Taurus Sun (April 21), and even out of sign, that squared my 26 degrees Capricorn Sun (because it acts like a late Aries Sun). To be fair, we had Venus in the 8th house synastry and a Venus conjunction. But not even his Venus in Pisces conjunct mine Venus, Eros, Juno, & Sappho could save that. (Of course, there were other hard squares.)
Oh, and before I forget: Mercury square Moon is so hard. I had that with another guy. Our communication was excellent at first because my Mercury was conjunct his Aquarius Sun & his Capricorn Mercury was conjunct my Capricorn Sun.
Mercury square Moon synastry: "This aspect indicates that there may be a communication barrier between both parties, where emotions and ideas are not readily expressed. The Moon person may feel especially vulnerable and stop providing emotional care and communicating their own emotions altogether if they feel too threatened. The Mercury person in turn may get frustrated at not being able to establish contact with the Moon person. This aspect may generate quite a bit of tension as a result."
-too accurate lol, thank you, AstroSeek
I had Eros trine Eros with that same guy. (His Eros in Scorpio was trine my Eros in Pisces. And my Venus, Juno, & Sappho because I have that nice conjunction going on in my natal chart.) Nothing ended up happening between us because of an unfortunate situation (and that Mercury square Moon & Moon square Pluto didn't help), but it was still so sexy. We turned each other on very easily, which makes sense because Eros is sexual desire.
Now Moon square Pluto: that one is a big red flag, lol. Don't do it, people. Or maybe date that person if the aspect isn't too exact. He & I had a 0 53' degree moon (him-Pisces) square Pluto (me-Sag).
"There is a struggle for power in this relationship. On the mental level, these two people confront and inspect each other.. Sexual intensity is high, but the same can be said about rivalry and jealousy. Over time the relationship can be resolved if they both face their internal struggles." -AstroSeek
