I would love any insight on Boomerang Yods and how they behave natally, in synastry, and composite. My understanding is that they are like regular Yods but with a more readily defined and accessible release valve/focus for energy?The way I'm counting these in synastry, is that one person has the two-planet base plus mid-sextile planet, and the other person adds the apex to the Yod (which opposes the other person's mid-sextile planet). So one person essentially will have 3 planets in a row, and then the other person will have one planet or a stellium opposite that.
I have 11 yods in synastry with someone using this criteria for their formation, and every single one of them is a boomerang (meaning there is a planet opposing the apex). That seems like a lot...
Additionally, we have 5 double-whammys with our apex planets (so, that's 10 of the 11). The planets/points that we each have as an apex are: Ascendant, Venus, Mars, Ceres, and Pallas. The last two, Ceres and Pallas, are parts of stelliums for both of us, which involve other planets too.
I'm slightly jarred by this realization, because as I understand it, Yods are rare-ish to begin with, so for all of them to be Boomerang Yods is just kind of like...??? Plus the fact that almost every one of them is a double-whammy with the apex planets... My head is spinning.
So anyway, this post isn't just about synastry, I really want to know more about Yods and Boomerang Yods as aspect formations in general. I know they're called the "finger of God" and have to do with "fate" and "inescapable" people/situations, but if anyone has more knowledge or personal experience to help increase my understanding that would be much appreciated.
