I love my girlfriend but we tend to have issues over how we express our love.. This is generally expressed with me offering emotional support and her preferring either time alone or more practical support..
we have some good synastry and some bad..

The major concerns for me are:

Her mars square my mars (exact!)
Her Juno retrograde conjunct my Sun + Venus (1 and 2 deg)
Her North node square my sun and venus!! (I'm sure this is supposed to be bad?)

how bad are these contacts? and are they likely to cause the problems in our expression of love?

I was thinking it might be my mars sqaure her saturn but that is a 7 degree orb.. How significant could that be?

If I vould figure out how I would post the full synastry! I'm sure there are some good points! lol Particuarly with eros/psyche, mercury and her sun + venus in my 7th house..

If someone explains how I could post the synastry chart?

Thanks :-)

I think the description of her virgo moon is accurate. She prefers more practical demonstrations of love e.g. cooking, shopping, DIY/home improvements etc but I prefer more sentiment and in some ways idealistic or romantic expression. That can cause misunderstandings. Do you think this 'misunderstanding' between my taurus moon and her virgo moon would feel less pronounced if the trine was exact, with a tight orb?

I do think that our shared sun/moon polarity means we share that challenge, despite it not being a synastry aspect, its like we share that inner/outer conflict?

As for neptune, your description is again accurate. She is very good at adapting her style to talk to people. Almost adopting their expectations as her mannerisms. We all do that to some extent but it is more pronounced with her. I also think my Mars is a loose conjunction with her neptune, how do you think that plays out?

my daughter is a virgo moon, wide orb but still trined to mine. we are thick as theives whatever that means but our emotional expressions and needs are very different. she will tell me she wants a hug if she's upset, but won't come to me for it usually (unless it's an owie or she's feeling shy. then she's glued to my lap!) and she's always busybusybusy which is tiring to me cuz i love calm. but somehow there is a great compliment; she's like the wildflowers blowing in the wind and i'm like the solid boring placid earth beneath her.

if you understand her temperament and don't take it personally, then what is the problem? i ask because as a taurus moon (and others i've known and loved- most of my best friends through my life have been taurus moons) i just desire to be supportive and solid for my partner; that calm place they can go that it might be hard for them to access for themselves.

Definitely. Its kind of the same kind of thing that happens between me and other 7th house suns (sun opposite asc.). You seem like you've intergrated the sun/moon polarity better than she has and may be able to help her out, though I can't say for sure. Would you agree?

The thing is, because Virgo and Taurus are essentially trine it shouldn't cause a huge problem. Maybe a minor annoyance at best, because trust me: we Virgo mooners can appreciate the overall solid support a Taurean can give. I think the problem comes with the fact that she has that Sun-Venus/Moon polarity going on. It seems to me that its playing out pretty strongly....she almost disowns her more fluid and romantic piscean nature in favor of her more emotionally modest Virgoan side, especially with her Virgo Moon being in the house of self (1st), while her pisces planets are in the house of other people (7th). Its definitely easier for her to assume Virgoan traits while pretty much projecting the Piscean.

With this one, I see you trying to confront the her straightfowardly about the issues, while she probably tries to evade the whole subject (your mars is activating a mars/neptune square in her own chart!). Tell me if I'm wrong about this, of course.
