If the moon and Venus form a tight aspect, both at the same degree of their respective signs, then those degrees will stand out in the synastry & composite.

Those same degrees will also come up in key midpoints, transits & progressions at the time of marriage.

In my experience it's never so simple as "A man marries his moon or Venus." It's not just the preferences he brings to the table. It's how a relationship shapes his preferences and teaches him what feels right.

My husband has Virgo Venus semisextile Libra moon. I'm a Capricorn.

Simple analysis: he married his Venus.

Complex analysis:
* His ASC, sun, moon, Venus, Saturn, Uranus are within the same three-degree range as my ASC, Mercury, Venus, Uranus. All these planets and points are aspecting each other, creating resonance.

* Naturally the composite has these degrees represented, resulting in some binding conjunctions, like composite IC conjunct Saturn ---> conjunct his moon ---> conjunct my Venus/Saturn midpoint.

* And lots more stuff like this happening at other degrees...involving much more than the moon/Venus and sun/Mars hyperfocus.

If we have simple theories the threads get long and complicated; if we have complicated theories the threads seem shorter.

That is correct.

A woman who embodies a man's venus sign would be attractive on a purely physical and superficial level. She is like a painting that a man would admire from afar, but there is no emotional attachment.

Ideally, the wife would share characteristics with both the man's moon and venus signs, but if a choice needs to be made, then a man will most likely choose the moon sign. The exception might be a man (usually very young men) who marry based on physical attraction alone. Again, this is all very general. Attraction is more complex than venus and moon signs.

My NN is 2 libra, his NN is 3 Pisces.
My Venus 25 cancer, his Venus 28 Aries, his sun 25 Aries. His moon 28 Leo, my Mars 28 Leo, my moon 1 Virgo. My sun 21 gem, his Mars 21 gem.

The amount of people who are already taken who still hit on me makes me squirm...

many people have illusions in our head about how the grass is greener on the other side

And astrology can make those illusions worse.

Or makes you wonder if...if it's genuinely an illusion or not?

Hi EmGem

Yes I think that stuff can be binding.

And honestly, often people desire for people who appear to be "out of their league", which lead us to settle, or to think that we've settled.

This is interesting. Do they marry their moon-venus type aspect wise and symbolically or just by sign? Example, you can touch a man's moon to the core with a lot of aspects to his moon and Venus without you actually matching the sumbolism or qualities of those planets in the signs in question. My first love was a Scorpio with Moon, Mercury, and Venus in Sagittarius with Venus ruling his 7th. On a soul level, we not only had positive moon-moon, but moon-pluto double whammy, moon-saturn double whammy, and 7th/ 8th house overlays double whammy with almost all of our personal planets in each other's house. The catch? His Venus was unaspected in our synastry besides an exact quintile to my Saturn and an exact conjunction to my psyche asteroid. So in this unique situation, although he was deeply and madly in love, he couldn't commit. We dated on and off for 7 years. Now he's happily in love (supposedly) with a Sagittarius woman with moon in Taurus. Her Moon is opposite his Sun and his Venus in conjunct her Sun very tightly. He says this is the best relationship he's ever been in and she's the best thing that has ever happened to him. There's more going on behind the scenes and I know my first love very well so I doubt it but I'm sure he's very attached on a gut level considering they have moon square pluto in composite. He's a womanizer to say the least though. Anyway, gst my observation? I matched the symbolism of his 7th/ 8th house along with his moon, but his Venus was unaspected so in the end, he probably felt there was something still missing. Since he's mostly Sag, I'm sure a lighter relationship emotionally along with his 7th house ruler being activated, is a much better choice in terms of partnership if we're sticking to the rule that men marry their Moon-Venus signs.
