Hello! I don't know if my response will be helpful but this is my chart: http://imgur.com/a/zWLC4KW (pls ignore the asteroids and transits on the outside)
As you can see, I have a "bowl" formation where basically all of my planets are on one side of the chart, 180%, very neatly.
From what I read/heard is that people like me may spend our lives searching for our "other half", the other half which completes us.
However in my opinion/experience, I do not think I can get along well with someone whose chart is 2-8 house focused as that would be someone who is the complete opposite of myself lol.
On the other hand, if someone is also 8th,9th,10th,11th,12th and 1st house focused like mine but of virgo ascendant (I am pisces), then that person's chart will be flipped 180 degrees, falling into all of my empty houses and my planets on all of his empty houses.
I think that is considered "soulmate".
Have you looked into vertex connection with them?
