I am a HUGE Linda Goodman believer and own copies of Sunsigns/Lovesigns and got hooked when i read the oh-so-accuarate descriptions of the zodiac sigsn and its been reinforced time and again by my own interactions with other signs.... and i particularly like the non-judgemental way she talks about each of the signs.

So, i was browsing and saw this site and seeing how friendly and informal the message boards were, i just got registered.

I was hoping to get an answer a predictable( i think) question of mine. I never believed in the concept of instant recognition of a soulmate till i met him...and i've been suprised so many times as to how we know exactly when either of us needs the other and are there for each other. we have very few things in common but i enjoy the different perspectives we bring to the relationship. anyways, my question was how compatible are we according to the stars?

my date of birth is 01-04-1977, Mangalore, India
and his is 28-06-1977, Chennai, India.

Thanks and hope you are doing fine.

As you don't have a specific question, I'll just list here a few of the aspects that you have together
Sue

Sun trine Mars
Great sexual attraction. In each other you have the ideal partner. You should feel energetic together and that you can do things together on a professional level or travel together on adventurous and sometimes unpredictable journeys.

Sun opposed Pluto
A great physical attraction will unite the couple, but this can sometimes cause problems. He may try to change you - which you may not appreciate, and this could lead to conflict between you.

Venus sextile Jupiter
Great aspect for a successful relationship.
You should feel happy to live together, with a pleasant family and home. Having total confidence in each other, intellectual understanding, similar tastes.

Saturn square Uranus
This could cause conflicts between you. Saturn (which is him) likes "structure" and can restrict, Uranus (which is you) is unpredictable and sudden changes.

Sun trine Saturn
This aspect will help to bring stability to your relationship. He will dominate you and you may find this difficult to accept. In any case, as the you like to feel secure, he may be a perfect partner.

Mars trine Uranus
Good aspect for any relationshup, linking originality to initiative and decision-making.

Sun trine Neptune
You're very attracted by each other but with the problems of everyday life, this love could vanish and you each may no longer understand what you found so attractive in the other.

Saturn trine Neptune
Good aspect. Neptune brings dreams to Saturn, who lacks them, and Saturn brings common sense to Neptune, who is totally without it. You have this aspect both ways - so you'll each bring both qualities to your relationship.

I hope you had a good vacation, Cat. Me i'm dying to have one but right now work doesn't permit me to take an extended break. can't even think of the beach.. its raining so much here now.

Thanks for the chart interpretation. This was probably what i was looking for... we are getting married soon and i was wondering if the stars had something to say about it too since i've felt i've always known him since i met him... felt maybe there was some destiny behind us meeting n all?

Cat, curious fact that you should mention him trying to change/dominate me... in fact its been a complete role reversal of aries n cancer with me sometimes being clingy( is it my capri ascendent?) and him generally being so unlike the crab. he's very chilled-out and doesn't get bothered about most things and isn't possessive at all... could you do an individual chart reading for him alone if it isn't too much of a bother? his personality totally goes against what i've generally read and known of cancerians.

also, what about the chiron factors in our charts? is it my cindrella time would you know?

Thanks again,
aps

With regards to him....
Although he has Cancer Ascendant he does have Capricorn Descendant......that's what you're experiencing.

Kind of a role reversal

Here's something to be thinking about....

Him......
Cancer Rising~Capricorn on the Descendent

Cancer on the 1st House cusp.
You are emotionally attached to your outer world. You perceive through your feelings, your heart and your intuitions. With cancer (the cardinal water sign) rising you absorb the energy from the people and the environment you are surrounded by and tend to react with drama and emotions or withdrawal and silence. You are generally easily hurt unless you have a very strong chart that reinforces and supports the feeling nature of your rising sign. People tend to feel safe around you when you are attached or comfortable with them and you will go out of your way to nurture someone you sense is wounded. There are times when you care too much and this can cause you pain and discomfort. Your personality is soft, romantic, emotional and somewhat demanding. You can be subject to a certain moodiness and sadness that will tend to fluctuate. (Cancer is ruled by the moon) Cancer rising generally favours a traditional style with an emphasis on quality and texture. You'll almost always feel at your best when in familiar surroundings.
Capricorn on the 7th House Cusp
Your rising sign seldom lets anyone in unless they have proven their loyalty or their emotional attachment and with Capricorn on your descendant there is a need for a strong and supportive intimate relationship in your life. The heavily emotional face you show the world needs a strong backbone and Capricorn on the 7th house provides that. There is an incredible strength that your associates and non-intimate friends seldom see and it stays wary and cautious about allowing attachments to form. With Capricorn on this house you may marry later in life rather than earlier (or find your true love later in life) and you will tend to be reserved and cautious until you feel completely safe and secure. Your rising sign and descendent provide a wonderful polarity where each side can help support and empower the other. Capricorn gives you the strength, the stamina and the discretion to provide a proper vehicle for Cancer but you have to honour it's existence as Cancer can attract the underdog who ultimately cannot support nor provide the qualities your descendent requires and the result is feeling constantly let down, unappreciated and unfulfilled.

You.....

Capricorn Rising~Cancer on the Descendent

Capricorn on the 1st House cusp.
The face you show the world is one of character, strength discipline and will power. This rising sign grows stronger with time because of the Saturn rulership and even health can be generally weak in the earlier years strengthening as time passes. You take on your share (and often more than you share) of responsibilities and are unafraid of hard work, dedication and perseverance. You are steady and controlled and form friendships only that serve some purpose in your life. There is often little time allotted to mingling and relaxation until you feel you've paid your dues in one way or another. You very rarely show any signs of weakness to your non-personal friends or associates and generally have a reputation for your dependability and your inner strength. You often have an unexpected and sharp edged sense of humour that catches others off guard as it can emerge in the least likely and least expected moments. Very little slips by your observation and you almost always play by the rules.
Cancer on the 7th House Cusp
Beneath the relatively reserved and immensely strong outer facade is a very emotional and caring inner centre. When you let someone into your heart you attach with a committed faith and expect the same from others. You are unafraid to show your feelings and your emotions to intimate partners and are rather easily hurt by their slights (intended or not). You value traditions in both your outer life and your most personal life and home is an important facet to your commitments and unions. You often are the entire support system for your relationships as you possess both the ability to uphold the outer world and nurture the inner world and it is important that you learn as early on as possible to give to self things of an emotional and spiritual value. You never forget a hurt but you do forgive if you feel a genuine apology or explanation is suitable. When you are committed to someone there is very little that you will not do for them and you will defend them to the death. It is important that you learn to allow others to stand on their own from time to time.

an aside here, we in india practice horoscope matching for prospective marriages and to be considered a good match at least 50% of the 32 aspects should match. now, what do you think of that?

Sorry - it was a "typo", I meant to say....

"give to yourself things of an emotional and spiritual value".
