Sun conjunct Venus- I've been the Sun in this configuration. The relationship is certainly good for my ego and feeling like my real personality is being brought out and enjoyed and accepted by Venus. I think the Venus person tends to really like the Sun and kind of naturally expresses sweetness and affection towards them. There are times when I feel a little TOO Sun though- boastful, putting my foot in my mouth, wanting to show off, getting ahead of myself etc. Signs should certainly be considered here, this one is in Sag for me, so that has a lot to do with the specific qualities of the interaction.

Mercury conjunct Venus- I have this going both ways with one of my best friends. It's probably my favorite aspect in a friendship and I'm happy to see it in any relationship. It's a genuine good time. Lots of great conversation. Mercury seems to articulate a lot of Venus's ideals and values and there's a kind of immediate rapport.

Moon conjunct Mars- HUGE attraction. I've been both in this configuration. Mars is kind of hungry for the Moon and senses who they are deep down and is really touched and moved by their sensitivity and want to get to know them. The Moon can feel kind of uncomfortable and really touchy because their inner most qualities are being touched on but also very aggressively and brashly by Mars. Mars can seem tactless and aggressive sometimes even when well meaning (I've especially noticed this in the process of "getting to know each other"- both are interested but Mars kind of pummels in and the Moon might be taken aback or uncomfortable, especially because again, they sense their innermost qualities being targeted). If the relationship is generally good it could be because Mars is overly excited about what they sense inside the Moon. The Moon feels nurturing and wants to support Mars as in many ways Mars expresses who they are deep down. Mars seems like the knight in shining armor, fighting for the good cause. If the relationship is not so great my experience is that the Moon will see Mars as kind of an insensitive, selfish jerk and Mars will get annoyed with the sensitivity and reticence of the Moon and kind of want them to toughen up.

Pluto conjunct Mars- I've had this with someone but have to say I'm still kind of wishy washy about its effects. I think part of this is because Pluto can be super secretive and hard to read at times and I've been the Mars in this configuration. A lot of sexual attraction but my Mars tended to want to jump Pluto while Pluto was content to hang back and wait for the right moment and this was frustrating. There were times when I was a little scared of Pluto because he is again, hard to read, weary of expressing things, more content to wait and observe. Other times those same qualities made me furious and I kind of wanted to knock him off his high horse. Super frustrating though because his Pluto being touched always gave him the upper hand because I would make a fool of myself trying to get a rise or attention out of him. I know a lot of times I came off brash and clumsy to Pluto, especially if I ever tried to tease him! Other times he seemed amused by this but again, would not respond in kind leaving me feeling a little silly but also super intrigued by his mysteriousness.
