How do they work? Is it an energy you just have to work around rather than ever understand in the other person?
What are your experiences?
If you have quincunx's in your natal chart--please comment ,too.
I am trying to get a feel for this aspect.

What signs are they in , Letram?
This is my thinking-- my theory lol--that IF you have Quincux's in synastry--you have to work around them rather than ever incorporate them i.e. understand those parts of each other.

Ami Ann,

The correct spelling of the measurement is QUINCUNX. Otherwise, I don't use them, but lots of other people do so I'll leave the explainations of how it works to other astrologers here.

Opps Thank you GV
GV--if you are there. Why don't you use them? Do you feel they have little or no value? Do you use other minor aspects? If so, which ones do you value?
Letram
This is just my theory and since I spelled it wrong --take it with a grain of salt
I am thinking that certain energies do not understand each other.
These signs are NOT quincunx but *I* do not understand or "get" Aqua .
I do not relate to Aqua's approach life, feelings etc.
My closest friend has Aqua ASC and I can even feel the Aqua ,sometimes, and I can't find a place,inside me, that understands Aqua's approach to life.
That is what I mean by different energies not understanding each other.
Letram, do you have a particular sign you just don't understand?

I use inconjunction instead of quincunx...since I have spelling issues too- which I'm fine with. LOL

I have Moon inconj Pluto, Moon inconj Sun, Moon inconj Neptune... all less than a degree from exact. I definitely feel them. I usually have to bargain with them for example with my Sun in Sag inconj Moon in Taurus... I tell my Sun- okie, we can go hiking and exploring all day tomorrow if my Moon can stay home tonight napping, reading in bed and eating some comfort ice cream. LOL. I definitely can't do the two together so they have to compromise. LOL

EDIT: oh and I forgot... My Sun will be complaining the whole time when I'm doing the Moon activity, as well, my Moon will be complaining the whole time during the Sun activity- that little voice doesn't go away. But, in time you learn to dial it down, talk to it and keep compromising. LOL

Ami,
The quincunx (inconjunct) is an "adjustment" aspect. There has to be an adjustment to make it work. The best scenario would be both of you making an adjustment, and coming toward each other's viewpoint. I think I read somewhere that the two planets don't understand each other. The lesson is learning how to balance the adjustment.

So, people CAN learn to understand each other's quincunx differences, VIG.
Thank you!

Even if quincunx and semi-sextile are considered as minor aspects, they do have some importance, specially in closer bonds. All the planets are parts of us, and the closer we get with someone, the more we try to connect as much part of ourselves as possible.
For me, these aspects weights as much as other main aspects (conjunction/trine/square/opposition).

But just as said here, these aspects are in signs that has nothing in common with each other, so when two planets in such aspects with each other tries to connect and understand each other, lots of adjustments might be needed. But well, it might be easier to deal with such aspects in a synastry if a person has some few quincunx/semi-sextiles (by aspect or sign) in the natal chart.

Personally, I have a few good quincunxes and semi-sextiles in my chart, so I guess that it helps a bit. Although it can be troublesome, as I feel that parts of my own self are kinda different sometimes (although I'm in peace with this lol). Also, when it comes to relating with others, I'd prefer people who aren't too fire/air or water/earth.
I would say that I'd prefer someone with whom I can have Moon/Moon and/or AC/AC compatibility thought, and if possible, same planets compatibility like Mercury/Mercury (for communication), Mars/Mars (for working together) and Venus/Venus (for sharing tastes). For example, someone's Mars being compatible with my Aries Venus would be cute, but it would be hell to work together with my Taurus Mars lol.

To me... Qx are worse than Squares or Opposition. You simply have NOTHING in common, no common ground or any will or want to work on it or grow.

I had an exact Moon quincunx Moon with a lady friend. The interpretation about needing to adjust is spot on in my experience. They say the quincunx sometimes acts as a trine and sometimes acts as an opposition.

With my Libra friend, it definitely took some adjusting on my part in trying to understand her in the Moon/emotion department. When I first met her, I would find myself being absolutely wrong when I tried to guage her moods. I suppose that was the opposition side of it. But after a while we got to know each other a lot better and I was then able to guage her moods a lot better. Even then, instead of just innocently assuming, sometimes I would just ask and respond accordingly. I suppose the ease that resulted from the adjusting was the trine side of the quincunx.

Scorpios are some of my favorite people. I've never really had any issues with adjusting when it comes to them. One of my best friends is a Scorpio Sun. Another one of my best friends is a Scorpio Moon. My sister has a Scorpio Moon. And my sister in law is a Scorpio Sun. And last but not least, the woman I feel to be my soulmate is a Scorpio. Seems like the trine side of the quincunx always showed up with them.

Ami, just remember that the quincunx signs are on either side of the opposition of a sign. Example, Gemini's opposite sign is Sagittarius. So signs that are quincunx to Gemini are Capricorn and Scorpio. Libra is quincunx Pisces and Taurus. And so on.

Got Gemini
Another question,if you are there
I was thinking about JUST what you were saying i.e that a quincunx provides an opportunity for great connection cuz it must be achieved through pure hard work.
You were saying this,in your post about your female friend.
I have quincunx's in synastry.I feel the same way.
They are mountains one must climb but you find a sweet,new path open within yourself and between the other person as a result of your trials.

My man and I have LOTS of quincunxes in our synastry...I think we may argue 3 or 4 times a year, if that...we have lots in common..alot of love and respect for each other, as well as appreciation and deep affection...maybe they are needed when you have a few grand trines...I dunno...I am still learning, but I have noticed them in a few other charts where there are strong soul connections as well...

I have my Moon quincunx MC and Mars quincunx Jupiter in my natal.

Do the qx/inconjunc signs get along? Like Taurus/Libra sometimes do, or is that a result of them sharing a planet?

The guy I am interested in has Aries Sun and Libra Asc, while I have Taurus Sun and Virgo Asc... so both of our suns are inconjunc with the other's ascendant. I thought that was a little interesting. :P
