her Sun/Venus on my DC (its 0°00, thats why i'm asking)

her Sun/Moon on my Chiron.
her sun/AC on my NN
her Sun/Mars on my IC
her Mars/Venus opposition my Sun
her AC/Vtx on my Venus
her Moon/Venus on my NN
my Sun/MC on her IC
my Moon/Pluto on her Mars
my mars/AC opposition her Sun

What do you think about these? I only know that Sun/Moon midpoint is suppose to be very important in synstry but I never got any info on some other important midpoint aspects.

Oh yeah the aspects are under 1 or 2 degrees.

I think i read somewhere, just like you said, midpoints represent the fusing of two energies. The placement of the midpoint in the natal chart would suggest as how these energies of lets say two planets would manifest. Here the midpoints are important cuz they tell us about our selves. I'm not sure as what it actually means if someone closely conjuncts your midpoint. If we take the midpoints into synastry we should only look for aspects they make to someones peronal planets, the points and objects that define someones personality in general. I think we should only look for conjunctions, maybe oppositions.

I think i once found an interpretation of someones sun/venus midpoint con someone elses AC. As the sun/venus midpoint is suppose to symbolize our individuality, ego and our need for love and affection, fused together...placed on someones AC would mean that we would love and cherish this person for who he/she really is.

I disagree

It depends on the system

midpoints in synastry are regular part of both Hamburg School/Uranian Astrology and Cosmobiology. Cosmobiology is an offshoot of the former system. Cosmobiology doesn't use hypothetical transneptunians like the Hamburg School/Uranian Astrologers do. Both systems use conjunctions,oppositions,squares,semisquares,and sesquiquadrates. Hamburg School/Uranian Astrologers also other divisions of 22'30 aspects.

another to keep in mind is that those types of astrologers don't use the house systems that we use. Hamburg School/Uranian Astrologers don't use zodiac signs whatsoever, and the Cosmobiologists put little emphasis on zodiac signs.

also they use much tighter orbs than we do.

Hamburg School/Uranian Astrologers use no more than 3 degree orb for aspects for conjunction,opposition,and square. take half of that for semisquares,sesquiquadrates. half of that for the 22'30 ,and even narrower. They use 1 degree orb for conjunction,opposition.

In Cosmobiology

Aspects involving at least the Sun,Moon,Ascendant,Midheaven get no more than 5 degree orb

aspects between
Mercury,Venus,Mars get no more than 4 degree orb

aspects between
Node,Jupiter,Neptune,Saturn,Uranus,and Pluto get no more than 3 degree orb

1 1/2 degree orb is used for semisquare,sesquiquadrate aspects

as you see, they use much smaller orbs than regular astrologers tend to use

the midpoints work in Cosmobiology like the signs and houses work for us when it comes to finetuning a planetary placement/aspect

1 1/2 degree is used for direct midpoints which are conjunction,opposition

1 degree for indirect midpoints which are square,semisquare,and sesquiquadrate

Cosmobiology and Hamburg School/Uranian Astrology are symmetrically oriented systems.
It's all about geometry for them.

Cosmobiologists use Combination Of Stellar Influences (COSI) to interpret midpoints in natal,synastry,solar arc,secondary progressions,and transits

Hamburg School/Uranian Astrologers use Rulebook Of Planetary Pictures.

The COSI is an offshoot of that book actually just like Cosmobiology is an offshoot of Uranian Astrology.

Are there any books on midpoints in synastry?

The orbs should be smaller than the conjunctions,oppositions,squares though.

no more than 30 minutes of arc.

in my natal, I have Moon sesquiquadrate Sun/Pluto with 5 minutes of arc,and I can relate to it. It probably helps me relate to Moon quincunx Pluto with 2'18 orb.

I would use 1 1/2 degrees for conjunctions,oppositions
1 degree for squares
1/2 degrees for semisquares,sesquiquadrates

the other 22'30 divisions I don't use, but no more than 8 minutes of arc seems reasonable.

minor aspects aren't necessarily less important. They just need smaller orbs.

there are no books on midpoint synastry

Cosmobiologists use the COSI

Uranian Astrologers use the Rulebook of Planetary Pictures

there is also a book on midpoints by Don McBroom

Ebertin didn't seem to either.
