Anyone think they could be of any significance? Someone said you have to be or have an affinity to Germany or the language to use Liebe. I dunno. I'm a newbie. But at the same things, I have some of my own theories.

As far as orbs go, I think that every individual should find what they are most senstive too. For example, if a person has heavy Moon contacts in their natal, they might feel very wide orb contacts to their Moon from someone else in synastry depending on the angle. I have no proof of this, its just a thought.

I think that you will find those asteroids useful that have strong conjunctions or oppositions to your main planets or main asteroids.

I definitely like the asteroid Union of example. And Kama sounds interesting, too. It`s the Indian God of erotic love, isn`t he?

On orbs: maybe you are right, but I rather work with orbs that work safely, especially with asteroids, as there are so many of them.
Otherwise you will end up having EVERYTHING in your synastry, and I don´t think this will give a clear, real image of your synastry.

A special case are for me "cluster" of asteroids or planets. Let`s say there is a stellium of Venus, Isis and Osiris (like in my case, only 2° from each other apart; now imagine someone elses Valentine being 2° away from my Isis and Osiris, it would mean that their Valentine is 4° from my Venus, too wide to count. But can I really cut my Venus from my Isis and Osiris? They are functioning as a unit in my chart.

In this case I am inclined to allow larger orbs. But then again when do you draw the line?

Well, applying all these asteroids I still think it`s best to apply the closest orbs to see what is REALLY relevant and in the centre of the interaction.

And this part is a stretch too but look at the moon, Venus, and their rulers and aspects from someone else to those planets and rulers and the midpoints between those planets.

But like I said, these are just my thoughts. I'm a newb to astrology so these are just based off my observations.
