Well, how do you figure out your midpoints?

I've never looked into them in much detail but i've just watched a video on configuring the Draconic with the Natal chart & the midpoints are one of the most important bits for the synastry

Midpoints are the (near) halfpoint between two planets.

For example:

Sun : 10 Aries
Moon: 10 Leo

The middle of it would be 10 Gemini


Basically you convert the positions into zodiacal length.

10 Aries = 10°
10 Leo = 130°

You add them and divide them by 2

140:2= 70°

70° is equivalent to 10° Gemini

As for the synastry between Draconic and natal, are you sure they were talking about midpoints, and not the meetingpoints (or conjunctions) between Draco and natal?

Can you link the video?

This software lists midpoints and interprets them, has been pretty useful for me as I don't know much about midpoints. http://www.zaytsev.com/downloads.html

Ah, you were just intrested in the Sun/Moon-mp?

Just take the tropical value and substract your natal NN, then you have the exact degrees of the DRaconic Sun/Moon-mp.
i think it is the quickest way.

I saw "configuring midgets" for a second.
I was like, "What the heck do they do in their spare time? Is it like locking midgets together like Legos?"
