I was reading Gypseewind's thread and MVM mentioned that the 6th/12th axis was good in relationships. It got me thinking about what houses are the best in synastry, and whether a spread out chart or a concentrated one are more enduring for long-term relationships.I never realized the 6th house was good in synastry. The 6th always seems like a sacrifice you don't really have any control over and the 12th i thought meant hidden or secret? Obviously, there are areas like the 7th and open enemies and the 8th and sexually charged or transformative. What have you learnt about the houses in synastry and what are your favourite houses/planets in houses and chart patterns. What are the worst? Have a great Friday!!!  IP: Logged |

I think too much 6th house stuff can be annoying, btw, Lara. Like if there's no balance and one person is having all 6th house stuff but the other only gets like 1st house stuff, then I would say that's imbalanced. Someone on here a while ago (can't remember who ! ) said something about what kind of houses are activated in synastry...like if someone without a lot of water in chart gets a water house activated by someone else, they might feel very awakened emotionally by that person. I dunno if that makes sense.
...The term 'Water House' sounds funny to me now, like it's the name of a pub

the only reason that i wound think the 6th house would be 'important' would be because the sixth house is daily living.. IP: Logged |

i hate the 6H. our composite moon's in there & it seriously sucks.
i feel as if em the one who does all the sacrifices & this leads to feeling unequal.in synastry,
his cap uranus/nept r in my 12H.
(he's a pisces asc) my aqua saturns' in his 12H.
(i'm an aqua asc) i don't really get how this manifests coz i've cap on the 12H cusp,saturn in the 1st.
he has aqua on the 12H cusp,uranus/nept in 11H. it probably doesn't make much of a diff coz we're already used to the energy. i favor the angular,water & earth(not 6th) houses as the influences penetrate the psyche creating a lasting effect.
if em looking for longterm,then screw the 5H. one planet in there is perfect.

Again, I think it's just a feel for the energies by combining both charts. Look at it too hard, pick it apart, isolate aspects, and I think it will become convoluted and we'll get hung up on single aspects.I don't like composite 6th house at all - even as a Virgo with a good deal of 6th house planets, I don't like a bunch of 6th house stuff. All the 6th house relationships I have had have felt very freakin' imbalanced. But again, too much of anything (even sweet 7th house) can suck and won't always be all perfect. I just never really fell in love with anyone with whom I had I had big 6th house placements in composite. I'm not thinking it's INHIBITED love - I've had them hit all kinds of key points - it's just never happened to me. Still... I'm sure some couple, somewhere, has a good marriage which happens to have like a 6th house stellium lol. So again, I think it's important to just see the energies as a whole by standing back to look. IP: Logged |

For the record, I have a composite 6th house MOON in my current relationship (in Davidson) and it's fine. We always just check in with one another and do stuff for each other. We complain about how our days have been a lot...but then we also laugh about it.
It's not a bad place for the moon. If two people love each other and want to give to one another, then they're going to be focused on pleasing each other, which is what this placement asks for. IMO - things are NEVER completely 'balanced'. Balance happens in the long run.
There are always going to be give and takes in life, and this placement DEMANDS the couple throw away the clipboard to see who owes who what (i.e., "I gave you a massage last night, you own me something now..."...things rarely work in that way.).
If you feel there's an imbalance, it comes from expectation levels.
If you don't like how imbalanced things are, then talk about it. Communication about that kind of stuff is going to be reflected by your Mercury placement in the chart. If sacrificial giving sometimes isn't your thing in relationships, then just don't do it. IP: Logged |

I just researched this somewhat because me and Mr. Bad Boy had a load of planets in the 6th house composite. I was thinking it would be a nice house, daily living etc. and the one thing that made me think was a comment I read about 6th house/Virgo being a mutable house so it wasn't good for stability like the 7th and 8th. Just throwing that tidbit out there for what it's worth. I'm not convinced either way at this time.

my expectations are high but that's coz it's a lDR. when we get togetha,i wanna see things happening...& now means now!how abt this- u save every cent u earn,go through all sort of pain just to be with him for a week but when u go there,
he's busy with his work(chores) while u're pining for some "us" time.
em tired of whining abt it. i even slapped him in the middle of the street regarding this. his family won't let him be with me & he won't rebel. he won't utter a word against their oppression. they literally tell him what to do & what not to do. "what's up with this sucky hair cut?!"..."who told u 2 go there?"... his parents divorced when he was 7 leaving him & his lil sis with his grand parents.
saturn in the 12H opp 6H venus.
moon sext chiron & sq merc.
i don't think they eva spoke a word or two of love. his granny's notorious as a B*TCH. i don't expect 100 roses or a trip to bavella. All i want & need is time! i've no other issue. in davison,
aqua moon conj saturn/asc. comp has leo moon(6H)
asc conj saturn
sq pluto. it's as if the universe & people have decided to keep us apart.
it rains on the wrong days.
oh No! i missed the date(my watch turns out to be slow).
i decide to meet him during merc/mars retro period & everything gets messed up. IP: Logged |

K, I'm confused, someone help me out please.If I ALREADY have a packed sixth house (4 planets) then, isn't it just in MY nature to be sacraficial in relationships?? I mean, isn't this going to show up with anyone, or am I confusing that with a composite? RE: The 12th house. I know it's supposed to be "hidden," and "secretive," but, to me, it's kind of like two people that live in their own little world. At least, that has been my experience with it. Not just this time either.
It's like you can go out and be among people, and involved in the goings on, but, you find yourself always drawn right back to that little bubble you have with that person. I'm not a big fan of this sort of music, but this song describes what I mean... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIcBXlmy4Wo&feature=related IP: Logged |

Gypsee... Yes, it's true, it will show up that way if you do a midpoint composite. But if you do a Davidson, it will be different.
I don't like regular midpoint composites.... they kind of annoy me because they repeat the SAME aspects, which is kinda lame to me. Davidson won't do that.Also, I agree with you 100% about the 12th house stuff. People just tend to be paranoid of 12th house stuff though.
My moon/moon conj with my guy is 12th house and we are in our own little world together too. I LIKE that!
12th house stuff feels like a hand coming up from behind to touch you. If you don't trust the person, that's probably gonna scare the hell out of you lol. If you like the person, you'll find it comforting  IP: Logged |
