Today I've read an article in english papers about Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis. In short : she is the love of his life, the only one who managed to tame him, he adores her, they are very happy together, yadayadayada.
So, I decided to have a look at their synastry chart (no time of birth, just aspects).

They have in their synastry :

- Venus- Mars opposition and square (very tight)
- Venus square Pluto
- Venus square Uranus
- Saturn square Mars (almost exact - Dulce, are you listening
- Saturn conjunct Sun (almost exact)
- Sun-Moon conjunction (quite wide, but still...)

Now, looking at all these squares, one would think that they wouldn't have a chance to string along 8 days together, let alone 8 years, but there you go. They are still going strong and madly in love. Even if they break up one day, this relationsip was very significant and long lasting.

Of course, this is very interesting synastry for my "research purposes", because of what I mentioned in my other post - I noticed that Mars-Saturn aspects are soooo present in close relationships, even the squares. I just wanted you to have a look at this post, because if you ever see so called "bad" aspects in your synastry, it doesn't mean doomed relationship. As long as you have the positive Sun/Moon/Asc aspects, you should be fine, and have a go at it.

And they also have another thing which I noticed a lot in close, solid relationships and that is Chiron-Sun conjunction in their composite chart.
I will try to find their times of birth later, to have a look at the houses and possible Vertex aspects.
______________________________________

On the other note, while I am here and not lazy to write again.

The book I am reading at the moment, Skymates, pays particular attention to the seventh house in synastry. Basically, they are saying that if someone's planets fall in our seventh house, especially if it is stellium, we will look at that person as our "other half" and often experience the soul mate connection with them (provided, of course, there are other aspects in place, like Sun-Moon. They are saying that when we see in synastry Sun-Moon connection, it is like striking "the vein of gold"!).
I know that lots of people on this forum commented on the seventh house ties, so here is little excerpt from this (excellent) book :
" If your mate or friend energizes your seventh house, realize that in one sense he or she represents something you need and are drawn toward. That feeling of identification, that sense of oneness, is essential for committed love, and your mate can bring you that feeling"
"....your lover can seem like long-lost other half, finally found, and that is the wonderful feeling.."
"....If you stimulate the seventh house of someone you love, transposing many planets there, your partner can feel selfless concern and tenderness for you that is hard to match elsewhere.

They consider the seveth house hugely important, and the houses in synastry as important as the aspects. They are basically saying that if someone "is bombarding" your seventh house with their many planets, it cannot be ignored and it is very significant.

P.S.

Thanks for posting this! It gives hope to ALL relationships no matter what the aspects are.

Their Gem/Cap relationship does seem odd, but Depp has his moon in Capricorn, which may indicate that he has more in common as far as their natures are concerned than the public can imagine. He also has 6 planets in earth signs!

I also LOVE Depp. Hate to sound superficial, but he's just too hot!

we must have the same taste, I think Joaquin Phoenix is a BABE! and Johnny Depp really doesn't do it for me. Has anyone see Match Point? I think the guy's name is Johnathan Ryes-Myers.. or something like that.. but OH MAN.. he is gorgeous. Okay I'm getting a little off topic now lol.

While we're on the topic of Jupiter aspects, I LOVE THEM. They make the relationship so enjoyable. My boyfriend and I have a lot of "heavy" saturn aspects, but we have mutual sun-jupiter and moon-jupiter aspects (my jupiter conjunct his sun / his jupiter trine my sun, my jupiter trine his moon / his jupiter sextile my moon) and we are always laughing together.. we just make each other really happy..

My boyfriend and I don't activate each other's 7th house, but in our composite chart, the sun is in the 7th.. which I guess could be a good and bad thing.

We have been together nearly ten years and married for seven. It's been a good marriage.....we only had one bad patch, last year, which was intense but we got through it.

I think you do need more than the seventh house activated though. You having the 4th and 8th activated will certainly lend emotional connection I imagine!

My hubby and I are very solid, very dependable, and luckily our fifth houses are quite activated by each other also, which adds some fun.
Our only 'downfall' if you like is that he has only one planet in a water sign and I have lots, plus ascendant.
So sometimes I feel he doesn't quite understand me. This in iteself isn't a problem as I know he loves me, cares for me, etc. He admits that he finds me a complex mystery. Maybe this adds something?
