This is a rather specific question, but hopefully someone will have some insight.

In synastry, if person A's 5th and 8th house ruler are conjunct person B's luminaries in person B's 8th house, who does this impact more? Is there any significance to this?

I feel you're over-complicating.

So, one's already got the 5R and 8R the same planet, meaning there's an interception here. That's significant, because it's linking the 5H and 8H. (OR. They're Aquarius rising. That's about the only exception.)

This person can't do casual sex -- unless there's an affliction to the ruling planet, or some other link to URANUS. If they do, they're lying to themselves in some capacity. Ironic, with Aquarius rising, but there's a deeper story there underneath the veneer.

But the connexion between the two houses shows a link between intimate sex and sex for pure pleasure -- casual affairs. Then to put it all IN the 8H, intimacy becomes the focus.

I had an Aquarius rising man's MOON conjunct my 8R once, but not in my 8H. There was a powerful sexual attraction, but too many complications. What eventually killed us was his realisation that we were too close for a sexual relationship; he only had casual sex, as he can't handle that depth of intimacy. But with me, there was no way. It was too much, too deep, and too real. Can't hack it.

He's got an exact conjunction of MERC (the 8R/5R) and URA, on the Great Attractor. URA, remember, is his chartruler here; all in his 11H.

In his case, the conjunction to URA led him to keep everything on the surface, though he secretly longed for a deeper connexion. He'd instead keep them completely separate: he would fall in love a woman with whom he would desire a sexual relationship, but never have it, while engaging in sport sex with women who were emotionally disposable in his view.

On the other hand, entirely, my boyfriend's ASC is conjunct my 8R (MARS), with his MOON in my 8H. It's an interesting pattern that's led to a lot of intimate development. The likes of which my ex is incapable.

Yeah, the person is an Aquarius rising, which means his 5th and 8th ruler are both Mercury. It is his Mercury that are conjunct my Sun, Moon, and Mercury in my 8th house. I hope that explains it better. Is there any significance with this? I thought maybe it would symbolize an 8th ruler connection but I'm not so sure..

I have another question for you which is off topic. But why do you spell "connection" as "connextion"? I have noticed that in a few posts of yours? I like how you spell it with an "x".
