Lucia, I've had sweet communication with a Mercury/Mercury square person too! I wonder if there's also like an automatic understanding or patience with the other, like you take extra time with them to make sure you understand each other. My Mercury square friend is someone I talk about really in-depth stuff with, and it seems to flow nicely. My experience with Mercury/Sun squares hasn't been as great, though. I also had this aspect with my ex-husband (as well as Mercury/Moon square of his Mercury to my moon) and it was yucky. Maybe the Moon/Mercury stuff is touchier? That's a very intimate dialogue, I would imagine, between moon and mercury. Per my friend with the Mercury conjunct - she and the guy both have Mercury Leo (she's a Leo as well), and he's a Virgo. And oh my god. They drive each other to the loony bin again and again. I'm tempted to post their synastry and composite just to see what the hell is going on, how they manage to be in each other's lives for 18 years on and off and hurt each other so senselessly and yet keep going back. One interesting thing I noted with their chart when I looked at it a while ago was that their luminaries made absolutely no aspects to each other - not a single contact between Sun/Sun, Moon/Sun, or Moon/Moon. She's a Leo with Libra rising and Aqua moon, while he's a Virgo with a Cappy rising and Moon. They've got a lot going on otherwise - Angle City! and Saturn stuff too - so it's kept them coming back, but I wonder if the thing never got off the ground at all because of the lack of luminary contact. It just never became solidified into couple-dom.

Ew, actually as soon as I read your description, I suspected they might both be Leo Mercuries. It just sounded too familiar. I think the Merc-Sun squares play out differently in a romantic relationship than a platonic friendship. My friend and I are platonic-ish with sexual tension (from me...and maybe a little bit him?) and romantic tension (from him...and maybe a little bit me), and it is in those arenas that we hurt each other. At the same time, for many of us--unless we have easy-peasy natals and had super-emotionally-healthy childhoods (and that's not me)--an intense icky feeling and un-fun aspects are big, irresistible hooks in our early relationships. Unfortunately. IP: Logged |

I know what you mean, Lucia, about the icky aspects. And it's funny that you could tell that I was talking about Leo Mercuries initially It sounds like you and your friend have a mutual attraction for sure, maybe some kind of Saturn stuff which is making it hard to get started??? Oooh, I just realized something which I have seen several times in relationships which started quickly (or had love at first sight) and ended up going to either marriage/engagement and/or equal commitment:
The synastry aspect of Uranus/Venus especially the opposition and conjunction gets people hooked - and if you add some hard aspects from Saturn, on the side of the Uranus person especially, then I've found it turns into shotgun marriage or something of the sort. Uranus/Venus falls in love quickly, and Saturn, I've found, can be obsessed with making things legal/legit. Saturn needs the paperwork to show it to the world somehow. I know it's by no means a guarantee! Of course there's no such thing as that with aspects alone. But if there's already mutual interest, I've found it really increased the chances. It's happened with me twice (once with my ex-husband, once with a guy who wanted to marry me like right away), and even a third time with a guy I fell in love with who wanted me to be his business partner. All 3 were the Uranus people. All 3 made squares with their Saturns to my personal planets. But it's not just me - I've seen it with a few others: -My mother and stepfather (married 26 years) -My friend and her ex-husband (married 11 years) -My friends who've been together about 20 years - not married, but they have kids together and live together. Also, it doesn't have to just be Uranus to Venus, it could be Uranus to the 7th house cusp/Dc as well. So, it's just something I thought of just now and I think it's another interesting addition to all of this synastry stuff IP: Logged |

Omg MVM, this is the perfect description for my Venus square Saturn/Uranus conjunction. I've always struggled to describe how this plays out for me. IP: Logged |
