Yes, that is the standard way to do it.

However, be aware the synastry will be at best only 70 % accurate. The Moon will be off by several degrees, you won't have any idea where the ASC and other angles really are, and you won't know the house placements.

He doesn't seem to be wild enough to be an Aries Moon, but doesn't seem to be as calm enough to be Taurus Moon (but maybe).

Well, his Ascendant would also play a part in how he acts.

If he is an Aries Sun/Moon, but a Sagittarius rising, that would put his Sun and Moon in the 4th house, which would give off a very calm, and Cancer-like vibe to his Sun and Moon.

In a way,the position of the Moon is very much influenced by the outer planet that touches it.

So if someone has Moon in Aries, then thy generally are quite active, volatile and may have a problem with being accident-prone-due to their impetuous nature.

But when that Moon forms aspects to Saturn,a lot of that can be mitigated; suddenly we find someone quite cautious, careful, painstaking and really quite deliberate.

Most people would not associate these qualities with a Aries lunar sign.

Same goes for someone who has Libra Moon- even-tempered, slow to act, looking for consciousness in expression, loving to be with others and always cooperating.

But if this Libra Moon has a conjunct aspect with Pluto/Neptune, we may find someone very intense in the 1st instance. And someone very non-challant and "chilled out" in the 2nd.

Look to the aspects that are made to outer planets in either positions.

I don't know the birth times of any of the biggest crushes* I've had in my life, and I'm curious why they've affected me the way they did/do... but obviously I can't just go and ask

I just wonder if there's any point in it all if you're only getting half of the story, so to speak? Going by the old adage 'a little knowledge is a dangerous thing', isn't there the danger that you start assuming too much on the basis that little knowledge?

I'd just play around with the times! See how the aspects change at different times of the day. That's what I do sometimes

*) except one, but he isn't even really an ordinary crush, more like a continuing enigma
