So I noticed that astro.com uses different angles for synastry than for example astrotheme. I´m not sure which angles/degrees they use. On astrotheme I have mars square sun at about 5 degree with someone, and the same chart with the same time doesn´t show the square on astro.com. Did you notice a differnce when trying to get the right synastry and which site do you normally use/prefer ?Also which orb would you still consider effective in synastry? IP: Logged |

i've noticed this with a lot of synastry charts on astro, even tighter orbs sometimes you end up needing to look at the degreesi dont like the look of a lot of other charts so i just suffer with that, if i dont like the way a chart looks i can't read it IP: Logged |

I noticed it with nodes. Are 4 - 6 degrees aspects to nodes in synastry/ composite too wide ? IP: Logged |

It sounds like this is the difference in the orbs used by these two sites. In synastry I use the same orbs as I do for transits: 5.5¢X max for planets (conjunction, square, trine, opposition), a bit more for luminaries; sextiles about 4¢X; parallels and contra-parallels certainly no more than 1¢X. So for example, two people's Suns can be considered conjunct if within 7¢X, or a Sun-Moon conjunction within that orb. But Venus trine Mars I would only count if within 5.5¢X. I have to move this thread to Interpersonal Astrology. ------------------ Soul Stars Astrology by The Declinations Guy: Expert birth chart rectification IP: Logged |
