I've been reading up on what a vertex is and what it means. I was able to dig up some old threads about vertex on LL, but wanted to see if anyone had anything else to add. Specifically, does anyone have stories about your vertex conjuncting the suns of certain people in your life? Did you find this conjuction to lead towards a very important, fateful like relationship with those people?

For myself, my vertex is in capricorn in the 5th house though my "anti-vertex" is my sun in cancer. Natally, I am just like how they describe someone with a vertex in the 5th house (childlike towards relationships).

I only have 3 friends who are capricorns and my relationships with them have been at very crucial moments in my life (all 3 live in different cities and countries).

My sun conjuncts the vertex of someone who I have an intense fated/karmic-like interaction with. He has vertex in cancer in the 8th house. What it describes about vertex in cancer and in the 8th house describes him perfectly. It's not surprising to me that our vertexes are the anti-vertexes of each other.

Definitely fated--we met on a train ride as perfect strangers, struck up a conversation, hopped off the train and went to a bar to have a few drinks and finish our conversation, and have been best buds ever since. Our chart angles and houses are also exactly conjunct We've even been having the same recurring dreams since childhood--freaky!

I have the same problem. We also have all this lilith crap going on too though and it's pain/pleasure alternating. We actually broke up a year ago after an almost "burn yourself to death" passionate affair and now we are in contact again.

Natal I Have Sun opp. Vertex and it's right on his asc/desc axis, so I guess with my Sun also on his desc within a degree..

Of course that is only my opinion.

EDIT:
I wonder, since Vertex/Antivertex is an axis like the angles, if we could find interesting connections by looking at its rulers.

Ex.
My Vertex is in Cancer and my Antivertex is in Capricorn, so I wonder if Moon and Saturn aspects would carry the "transformational" quality of my Vertex, too.

My Vertex hasn't been too busy in synastry. In fact, when I first looked into the Vertex a few years ago, I saw such little synastry involving it that I wondered if my Vertex was broken. But then I noticed that for me it's very active in transits.

In a sense the Vertex forces you to figure something out, to change something in your own life, with the other person helping you in some way. It doesn't have to be on conscious level at all . But until that something that has to happen doesn't happen you will be under the spell of the Vertex. You also wont have the slightest idea what is going on between you and that person or why is it happening. It will just feel intense and irrational, like amowls said .

I have a Vtx/AC DW with someone as well. Amowls if i remember well our synastry and composite charts are quite similar.
