I read you're supposed to have a mix of positive and negative aspects to keep it interesting and to learn from each other.

My question is how does this report look??? I thought there were some aspects in the report that made it seem like it just wasn't a good match, but other aspects did make it look like a good match.

I'm just confused... Any one out there with a better understanding of Astrology than me that could shed some light on this would be greatly appreciated!!!

Synastry aspects
Opposition Amy Sun / Joe Mercury - orb: 00' 02'
This comparative combination promises a good deal of communication between the two of you, but there is likely to be widely varying viewpoints and opinions. You are probably able to arrive at a balanced judgment.

Sextile Amy Sun / Joe Jupiter - orb: 01' 34'
This aspect produces a cooperative attitude and generous friendship. You are likely to make excellent traveling companions. There is general philosophical agreement at many levels.

Trine Amy Moon / Joe Venus - orb: 05' 38'
This is one of the best combinations for a romantic attraction. You really enjoy each other's company. You are sexually attracted, and have a sympathetic, emotional harmony with each other. You enjoy an attitude of mutual consideration and kindness.

Trine Amy Moon / Joe Mars - orb: 02' 32'
This is a favorable aspect enhancing cooperation in business, professional and domestic endeavors. The aspect denotes mutual involvement and getting along in any project that is at hand. The combination also contributes to sexual attraction, working in this regard best when it is 'her' Moon and 'his' Mars.

Trine Amy Moon / Joe Uranus - orb: 03' 06'
This comparative aspect often indicates sexual attraction. Uranus supplies a great deal of interest and exciting in the relationship. Together you can have a large circle of friends, and you may use your home as a meeting place for social gatherings, organizations and unusual activities. You encourage each other to be more individualistic and creative and allow freedom of emotional expression.

Conjunction Joe Moon / Amy Mercury - orb: 03' 09'
This aspect provides a good avenue for communication, although in some cases people that share this aspect talk so incessantly about trivial and inconsequential matters to the point of boring or annoying each other. Normally the ability to communicate is a positive circumstance, but of itself, this position doesn't indicate sexual or romantic attraction.

Opposition Amy Mercury / Joe Mars - orb: 05' 48'
This comparative combination suggests a tendency to lose patience with each other and get into arguments. Mercury sees Mars as too impulsive and aggressive, while Mars views Mercury as all talk and no action. If you are to get along, you must work hard at exercising patience and consideration in speech and communication.

Opposition Amy Mercury / Joe Uranus - orb: 06' 21'
You stimulate each other mentally in many exciting and perhaps unusual ways. Your relationship may be a little undisciplined at times, but it won't lack for interest. Mutual interests in science, occult subjects, group activities, or social reforms may connect in this relationship.

Opposition Joe Mercury / Amy Venus - orb: 03' 38'
This combination poses a challenge in understanding. Mercury fails to understand Venus' feelings, and Venus must make a special effort to understand Mercury's thoughts and ideas. Mercury may see Venus as somewhat lazy and over-sensitive, and may resent the money spent on unnecessary luxuries. There are likely to be many instances of differing opinions regarding art, music, social activities and friends which will need adjustment and compromise.

Opposition Joe Mercury / Amy Mars - orb: 07' 35'
This comparative combination suggests a tendency to lose patience with each other and get into arguments. Mercury sees Mars as too impulsive and aggressive, while Mars views Mercury as all talk and no action. If you are to get along, you must work hard at exercising patience and consideration in speech and communication.

Conjunction Joe Moon / Amy Jupiter - orb: 08' 37'
This aspect puts a good deal of harmony in your relationship. You share feelings of trust and mutual confidence. You tend to have compatible religious, social and ethical values, and you encourage each other. This placement of itself doesn't indicate romance, but it will increase the quality of a romantic relationship and it also will increase the durability and stability of a marital relationship.

Opposition Joe Venus / Amy Jupiter - orb: 03' 26'
This aspect produces a congenial social relationship, but sometimes it gives a sort of polite glibness. One of you may pretend friendliness and affection to avoid unpleasantness or to gain social, financial, or cultural advancement and status. When the relation is sincere, you may share many common interest in philosophical, religious, or educational interest or activities.

Opposition Joe Mars / Amy Jupiter - orb: 00' 20'
This combination requires patience, restraint, moderation. Mars is rash and aggressive and Jupiter is optimistic, sometimes over-optimistic. This aspect denotes a conflict in purpose that would make it very hard for you to work together and it may make it difficult for you to agree on expenditures in the domestic set.

Conjunction Joe Moon / Amy Saturn - orb: 03' 18'
This is a very difficult comparative combination for most relationships. Saturn sometimes is emotionally depressing and periodically has a wet-blanket effect on the Moon. In a serious relationship together, the Moon person tends to be too moody, and the Saturn person is insensitive. In a marital or romantic relationship, this combination is likely to produce coldness and estrangement. A relationship may be based on the need for security rather than any genuine sympathetic understanding between the two of you.

Sextile Joe Sun / Amy Uranus - orb: 01' 10'
This aspect generally denotes unusual friendships, or meeting under extraordinary circumstances. There is likely to be an inexplicable and immediate attraction. Though associated with romantic attractions, this aspect doesn't of itself indicate an enduring relationship.

I believe astrology can show aspects between us and another person that indicate compatibility as well as disharmony! From my limited astrological knowledge, some aspects have more of an impact than others - positive or negitive.

For instance, there must have been some 'major' positive astrological aspects between my husband and I or its doutful there would have been a marriage!!! After our divorce I had an astrologer look at the compatibility chart between us. That astrologer mentioned that 'he had never seen this one particular aspect between two people where one person didn't end up in years of counseling'. I'm sure that was kind of a figure of speech and Sorry, but I can't remember off the top of my head what that aspect was. At any rate, it was a major negitive aspect.

Also, a friend of mine had her compatibity done with someone she was seeing and they asked her if she was married. When she said she was single, they said they thought the guy might be married. Turns out the guy WAS married!

Since this is a 'new' relationship, I was hoping that someone with more astrological insight than I could shed some like on the situation! Like having a background check done or getting the opinion of a trusted friend...

I guess dateing him for years and paying attention would possibly give me the same insight???

In life you and this person will view things different. He has a Cancer Sun while yours is in Capricorn. Opposites attract, but at the same time check out the outlook on life. Cancers are wonderful listeners, but can also be self-centered and prone to pity-parties more than a Capricorn (My mom is a double Cancer- scorp rising and my Dad is a Cap Sun / Rising with a Cancer moon).

Capricorns are ambitions and prone to being workaholics while Cancer natives put the family first (most often and of course this is generalizing a bit).

It would be nice to know your rising signs to see how your chart rulers interact with other person planets.

Emotionally you will both handle things differently. Your Moon is a fire moon and one of the most reactive (I also have an Aries moon) filled with passion, energy and a go go attitude. He has a cool, analytical moon and the moon is not entirely comfortable in Aquarius. Luckly that moon is paired with a water sun - to help temper that emotion.

Your moon squares his Sun and brings out a bit of tension when it comes to emotional issues. When he feels the need to withdrawl, that Aries moon will want to Draw him out and say "COME ON... we need to talk about it" Crabs will clam up.. and that Aqua moon will go into la la land thinking about the pros and cons of talking.

Always look at the aspects as well as the sign influence. A square between an Aries moon and Cancer sun will manifest differently than a square between Libra and Capricorn.

Your Saturn squaring his Neptune
Your Saturn quincunxing his Pluto
Your Saturn quincunxing his Sun
From the point of view of Magi astrology, these are major Saturn clashes, also called nuclear clashes. Saturn is the lord of time. In time, people with these aspects break up in the worst way.

Your Saturn conjunct his moon. Not exactly a cheerful aspect.

Your Neptune squares his Venus and this is a very difficult aspect to work out.

Pid gave her perceptive-as-usual insights and I'm not able to add much except for this --

From Steven Forrest: http://www.stevenforrest.com/lovehandles.html

quote:

---

To me, in the realities of the astrological counselling room, there are
two immutable premises:

There is no manner of astrological interaction between two people that
is so inherently sweet that enough selfishness, confusion about sex, or
immaturity cannot turn it sour.

There is no manner of astrological interaction between two people that
is so inherently bitter that enough patience, devotion, and humility can
not only make it last, but make it something precious to both people.

Underneath those overriding principles, what I like to see when two
people are contemplating a commitment is a lot of basic harmony and
agreement - especially some significant conjunctions, trines, and sextiles
among those three absolute building blocks in the astrological chart:
The Sun, the Moon, and the Ascendent. That really helps people "get
along." Let me quickly add that I don't mind seeing some significant
squares, oppositions, quincunxes or sesquiquadrates among those three
either - that's just grist for the evolutionary mill. We need some of
both - sleepy peace and lively tension.
