Hi, I'm new, as I mentioned in the Emotional IQ post, and totally thrilled to be here.

I haven't really paid much attention to astrology in the past several years, and only picked it up again recently, mainly to figure out where this relationship with my hubby is going. And I found out some amazing things, like, our synastry chart, and even the composite, look much better than our real relationship. How can this be??

I am a Virgo Sun, Leo Asc. and Moon, and he is a Scorpio with Piscis rising and Moon in Cap. Now some things I see that really reflect our relationship, for instance that a lot of my planets fall into his 6. house, which means I cater a lot to his needs, nurturing him, like it or not, and often feel like a servant with no fun at all. And even though I am a Virgo, I also like quite a bit being catered to myself. (He of course thinks he is doing that already.) And his Ascendant falls into my 7. house,opposing my sun, venus, and pluto, which I thought would be rather energizing, (oppositions can be good, as opposed to squares, I thought) but turns out to be really annoying. It's his passivity, and "meekness" sometimes, for lack of a better word, that really irk me now and then.

And we also have this amazing thing I only just learned about through Dr.Z, (http://www.thezodiac.com/soulmates2.htm)which is a supposedly rare conjunction of Eros and Psyche. When in reality there is precious little passion in our love life. This is all really weird.

Has anyone else here had the experience that they started a relationship without paying attention to astrology (I think I am talking to the wrong crowd here), and only afterward did their charts, and they were taken aback by the incongruity of it?

Well for one his Sun does square your moon and Asc..which can be kinda irritating in a relationship..it can also spice it up, but sounds like with you two it's irritating lol

What I noticed with that Sun/Moon square..is that the moon person..I've been the moon person with a couple of Libras gets a lot more hurt by certain things the sun person does..even though usually it's just the way they are really..it's not even something specific that they do..it's just the way they act sometimes that doesn't rub my emotions the right way..I have a Capricorn moon.. so that might happen with you..maybe you feel emotionaly hurt by him sometimes or maybe he disagrees or seems critical of the way you come accross (Leo asc) because it's very different to his watery scorp/pisces and capricorn moon.

That being said I LOVE libra guys and my bf is one..and I LOVE Libra girls too lol.. it's hard to explain because personally I can get hurt by certain things but not let that be a deal breaker because there's a lot of other things I DO like ..it doesn't happen much with my bf but that might be because he has the same moon sign as me so we're in the same boat in a way lol my sun sq his moon..his sun sq my moon (and natally we both have sun sq moon)..and our moons conj..

:edit: I missed your question in my reply lol.. I don't thing anything in astro is set in stone so I'm pretty sure there'd be charts that look all special and amazing while the ppl involved aren't even on talking terms. Though usually you'll prolly still find something to account for a lack of understanding..because all relationship charts (like natal) are always going to have both good and bad aspects..I don't think there's such thing as a chart with ALL positive aspects..So maybe it's a matter of what you choose to act like with the person..and what they choose to act like with you (takes two to tango) ..if you look at it from the point of view that "astrology is set in stone" there's always those positive/negative points..and the free will you both use when choosing what you want to play out with the other person..

His Sun only squares my Asc., not my Moon which is in the beginning of Leo, unless you mean sign-wise. -- Actually, I am even more irritated by him than he is with me. His passivity and lethargy, for one.

We also don't have any Sun/Moon aspects at all. Maybe that's one of the problems.

You are of course partly right - a relationship is what you make of it, and there are good and bad parts in each chart, but a lot is to be said for being at ease with one another, and that's not something one can work on. Most of our squabbles are petty and silly. The much bigger issue with us is temperament. We are so different in that respect... Then again, I have this little unpleasantness in my chart called Moon-Neptune sextile. As I just read somewhere, if you meet someone who has a Moon/Neptune aspect - R U N. (she didn't distinguish between different aspects.) Supposedly those people always think the grass is greener somewhere else. Which is.... yeah, true, I'm afraid.
