This is a weirdly dumb question, but I'm unsure of how I've been doing this.

To compare my natal to the composite of my bf and me, what do i look at? Just "Oh, in my natal house I have venus. In composite 1H we have venus, Sun, and mars. So, my venus is conjunct that stellium."?? Is there a chart you can run in astro. that does this?

Thanks, and sorry for the noobness.

for a first approach:
conjunctions and oppositions to your natal planets within 3 degrees.

Keep an eye on which natal aspect-configuratons are being triggered by such an overlay, and also if the planet triggered is an important one for you.

An example of the routine.

1. Generate the composite and the two natals separately.
2. Notice the super-composite-stellium-it'd-be-awesome-to-aspect-natally. (Or any of your comp's astrobodies, for that matter.)
3. Note its placement. (Oooooh, 18° Virgo. Wonder what's there.)
4. Realise that's your ASC's placement, as well as his SUN/MOON midpoint's.
5. :squeal:
6. 'That explains it !' :eurekamoment:
Five seconds later...
7. Adapt to the new dimension your relationship's taken.
8. Be hungry for more.
9. Search for more.

Oh and, no, astro.com sadly doesn’t have that option.

I guess I'm still confused tho...


So, do I look at the houses, or the signs of the houses.

So, if the 1st house in the composite is in Capricorn, with the sun/venus/mars stellium there at about 21 degrees or something, and my natal first house is in Aquarius, but I have venus in the first house (of aquarius) at 21 degrees, is that a conjunction since it's a 'house overlay'?

Or, I look at the house represented by Capricorn in my natal chart, and what planets are at 21 degrees cap in my natal to see if they conjunct?

Yes I know this is super basic. Sorry for that. Hope that makes sense?

Haaaa been reading this all wrong.

So, for instance, My composite with my bf has the following:

AC at 5 degrees Capricorn.
Sun and Venus at 12 degrees Capricorn (conjunct almost exactly, less than 1 degree).

BF natal has: Sun at almost 3 degrees Cap.
Angel and Juno conjunct at 5 and 8 degrees Cap
Neptune 5 degrees cap.

So THAT counts as conjunctiony for my bf to our composite, correct?

Oh and my moon is at 3 degrees Libra (composite is 2 degrees Libra). So, even tho different houses... that counts as conjunction, right?

Great one!

Can you believe it? I just recently noticed that the composite Valentine-Lust-Angel-conjunction falls onto his natal Uranus (c-Valentine/n-Uranus exact on 23 Scorpio) while the c-ALMA on 20 Taurus and c-JUNO on 22 Taurus opposes his Valentine

to c-ASC, yes.

To c-Sun-Venus only in relation to Juno and only weakly.

Cool, I gotcha.

There are a lot of other conjunctions but I really just wanted to understand exactly how to compare charts with this thread.

Thank yoU!

That's typically the first way to start, yes, noticing the conjunctions.

I've got to say, however, that the 'synastry' technique I've stumbled into, (doubt I 'developed' it) has been tremendously useful in gaining greater perspective.

And I've been doing this astrology thang for a long time. If something 'new' comes to me, it's kinda surprising.

The generating two natals and a composite at the same time option? It totally does! Composite + Natals man! It's the bomb.

Loved your list of steps by the way
