I was just wondering what the difference is between a composite chart and a synastry chart, also which one is more accurate.

One of those things usually with different viewpoints. When it's brought up, usually talk about how each serves a different purpose and perspective. That first, one must know each person's Natal Charts & aspects, etc. within each Natal. Then maybe Synastry from there for the beginner. And then the Composite, once you can conceptualize the "relationship" having an astrological chart on it's own.

THEN - to take it one step further - you do a Synastry between each Natal and the one Composite to see how comfortable each person feels in the "relationship".

Thanks AJ. So as a beginner I should just do synastry, not that I'm sure on how to do that, it's a little confusing for me.

Yes, and I mean, everyone here learns as they go at their own pace, so. Learning about the basics is critical, and eventually feeling the basics intuitively, more critical still. But you'll first understand the relationships Planets can have with each other, bugging each other, or pleasing each other, or maybe it's neutral.
