I once read that the only way to really see when you have the opportunity for a new relationship is through progressions. Does anyone have any experience with this? If so, what are some telling signs?

Sun-Venus
Venus-ASC
Venus-Mars

conjunction / trine, sometimes opposition, but more rarely in the progressions or from progressed to natal

Venus-Venus seems to happen too, but it is softer, usually not getting active enough, as is Venus-Moon.

The thing that confuses me about progressions is some people seem to be able to time things so accurately but progressions move so slowly. The aspects you mentioned- can't those be in effect for a long time? So what will trigger them? Does the moon have a bearing since it moves quickly?

I think certain transits might trigger t hem.


pr Moon could be a good timer, too.

I haven`t investigated this further though.

Racole,

westran spoke of the trine and conjunction between Sun and Venus as "conventional" aspects for the beginning of a relationship, but he also mentioned that occasionally there are couples who prefer the square. Probably that is somewehre indicated in the natals.

An increase in energy (unless Saturn or Neptune are challenging the conjunction of course)


Mars-Sun seems to pop up in pr synastry, too, if Venus-pr are present, too.

thanks DD. it's interesting cuz he has that happening, and it is exaclty on my moon (his sun is less than half a degree away), as well as prSun on his IC which is also conj my DC. so the synastry seems to match up since it's doubly conjunct. cool!

I noticed on the days my pr moon exactly conjuncted my pr mars in the 7th and then a few months later my pr pluto in the 7th i met someone I became interested in romantically. The first didn't stick but the second I'm still waiting to see what happens with...

i hope this isn't too off topic but i just checked out our progressed composite for the night we got back together and we have (conjunctions only.. i'm too lazy to check other aspects usually).

pr.compo venus conjunct compo sun 0'05
pr. compo AC conjunct compo mercury 0'41
pr. compo mercury conjunct my moon 0'01 and his sun 0'19
(and in the pr. compo chart itself, moon conjuncts mars a little over a degree in orb).

wow. it really seems like timing is everything.

So this is the only time two people will come together? What if the person liked you before the progression ever took place ? A guy told me he had always liked me. Which means he liked me a couple of years before the progression started. I feel like I waited too long to realize it. But I really didn't pick up on it. Until the progression started which is now.

It starts with feelings and then opportunity shows itself up. Then the progressions reflect that process I think.

I for instance have progressed Venus on Sun/Neptune. And Sun rules my 5th house.

Add to that, Trans Jupiter conjuncts Natal Venus (ruler of the 7th) and progressed DSC.So am I being swamped left/right and centre with suitors? No.

My progressed Moon is in sultry and brooding Scorpio at the moment. So perhaps also on that end, I am just not letting love 'in'(this despite it being in the Natal 7th).

It starts with an internal clock I think. And the rest add to the external manifestation of how one felt is already in the momentum of feelings.

Yes but I just don't know why I didn't realize it sooner. If I had known that he actually liked me. I would have started talking to him sooner. So it's like he always liked me but I didn't pick up on it until now because of the progression.

On the day I met my current boyfriend...

My progressed Venus was conjunct my natal Mars, his progressed Venus was conjunct his natal Sun.
My progressed Jupiter was conjunct my natal Moon, and my progressed Moon was conjunct my natal Sun.
My progressed Descendant was conjunct his natal Moon, and his progressed Ascendant was conjunct my natal Sun.

In transit, the date/time we met, the transiting Midheaven was conjunct my natal Descendant, and the transiting Ascendant was conjunct my natal Venus. (Also meaning the IC was conjunct my Ascendant!)
Transiting Venus was square my natal Venus, transiting Jupiter was conjunct my natal Mars, transiting Mercury was trine my natal Sun, and transiting Chiron was opposite my natal Chiron.

As for his transits, transiting Saturn was conjunct his natal Uranus, transiting Moon was conjunct his natal Sun, transiting Neptune was conjunct his Descendant and going into his 7th house. Transit Saturn was also opposite his natal Jupiter.

You'll often hear astrologers say that one thing needs to be confirmed in various charts simultaneously.

You can have great synastry with someone but nothing will happen if the progressions don't point to a relationship.

You can also have progressed Venus conjunct natal Sun but nothing will come of it if the solar return doesn't indicate romantic events for a particular year.

Look at the progressed Ascendant in your chart, do you notice that more people of the prog. Asc or prog. Dsc sign are coming into your life?
Example: Your prog. Asc is in Taurus. Have you met a lot of Taurus and Scorpio Suns lately?

Prog. Venus to natal Sun
This aspect usually brings a meaningful relationship and if your Venus is retrograde natally, then this aspect is possibly perfected more than once.

Solar return
Every time the solar return Venus is conjunct your Sun is a good year for romance. Venus has an eight year cycle so to speak.
Example: If you had solar return Venus conjunct Sun in 2015, the aspect will be repeated in 2023 again.

Synastry and progressions
Usually when two people come together the progressed planets of one person aspect the natal planets of the other and vice versa.
You'll see prog. Venus conjunct natal Sun, prog. Sun conjunct natal Moon and so on.

Progressed composite
Look at the progressed composite aspects to the composite 7th house ruler.
Example: Composite 7th house ruler is Neptune in Capricorn. At the start of a relationship you'd see the progressed composite Moon in Libra squaring comp. Neptune for example.

I believe that separating progressed aspects literally bring separation if there are no other binding progressions.
Let's say one's progressed Asc is in the late degrees of Gemini conjunct the partner's natal Sun. I could see the relationship end as soon as the progressed Asc enters Cancer if there are no other supportive aspects.

Anyway, it's never enough to just use one method. A pattern needs to be confirmed through various charts.

When my progressed Vertex was over my DC, every guy I dated was begging to get married. Unfortunately, I was young and not ready.

So the attraction can still be there even when the progressions between two people are over?

^^Yes. Look at progressions as a window of opportunity.

I've had many of the progressions mentioned and never had a relationship (other than platonic ones) and I'm 27 yo.
So I don't think they're a standard or it is that my natal chart diesn't promise one (Neptune and Uranus conjuct DSC in Capricorn, Satuen in 8th H Aqua)

Never had any romantic relationship.
Not even single platonic one.
I'm 36.
