Put in our birth dates into the love affinity calculator and got 100%...

For reference: https://www.astrotheme.com/astrological_love_compatibility.php

But our charts don't have any major aspects that stand out, and many of our signs seem to be in traditionally non-compatible signs. I see there are some nodal connections, and a 3 degree orb venus mars trine, however I just don't understand how it is 100%, I have never even seen that...

We also have some challenging composite aspects such as mars square saturn... Any insight or feedback is appreciated. I am the chart on the inside (female), he is the outside (male). Below is our synastry, the aspects for that synastry, and composite in that order.

a computer is limited by the program it runs. the program is limited by the knowledge of the programmer.

your composite has Jupiter square it Uranus which shows it will not last. the midpoint is conjunct pluto which shows tha there is too much selfishness in the relationship for commitment . if you are currently in this relationship, it likely will fall apart next years when the node squares pluto and the midpoint.

I think this goes by Sun sign compatibility? Technically you guys are wide orb Sun opposite Sun. I also see Venus conjunct ASC and a Moon trine Venus - both great aspects in synastry.

I also got 100% with my boyfriend and we have a tight orb Sun sextile Sun. But I'd like to believe we have 100% compatibility as well

Interesting. I have not been able to find many resources on composite midpoints. Is there anything you recommend?

It should be looking at more than just sun sign compatibility I believe, but I am willing to bet that venus conjunct asc and moon trine venus contributed to the 100% score. That must be a nice thing to see a 100% with someone you are in a relationship with. I am not in a relationship with this guy at the moment but I am very reluctant to get into any relationships and am afraid of the 100% making me have inflated expectations for something that doesn't exist.

How are you so sure it won’t last, Todd?

That’s one aspect out of many.

I’m sure there are thousands of long-term couples with that aspect and many more.

Astrology isn’t cut n’ dry.


This is why I stopped posting so much on this forum.

9/10 all these relationships don’t last because Todd or some other user on LL said so..?

What I’ve noticed, and please agree to disagree if you choose, MOST of the posts in this section are made by individuals already feeling insecure about some aspect of their relationship, including myself when I post.


All these doom and gloom responses just adds to the anxiety and insecurity which probably led to a self-fulfilling prophecy in a way.


Every day I witness a terrible composite and/ or synastry chart of a long-term or married couple who usually has more than a couple of these “doom and gloom” “the relationship won’t last” aspects.

The funny thing is, those SAME people know nothing about Astrology except the usual basics.

We put so much into this forum forgetting there are millions of couples out there with the worst of the worst relationship charts and are just as in love as those so-called “perfect” composite charts and synastries.


Astrology is very much real and accurate, no doubt.

But I think we need to take the “Miss Cleo” aspect out of it.

No one can predict anything based off a set of rules.

We can mention hardship we see in the charts, but to say a relationship will fail?!

No.

This is why I miss the old LL.


Todd’s responses seem computer-generated anyway.

He said the same thing about Pluto-Nodes to me and a few others.

I understand if it’s a collective transit,
but it still won’t affect everybody the same.

You can’t pin the same prediction on everybody that has that aspect.

Exactly.
It is absolutely irresponsible of an astrologer to claim that a relationship is going to fail, come on now, you are talking about someone's relationship which affects their life here.

I don't think astrotheme's calculators are based solely off of sun signs. They do take other things into account.

Also, you should understand that "compatibility" and "long-lasting love" are NOT the same thing. You may be very compatible but not capable of having a long-lasting love relationship. I have gotten high numbers on that calculator before with friends that I know I will never talk to again, but I am still very aware that we are, in fact, compatible. We have many hobbies, many shared interests and loves, many common humor skills, many shared talents and likes and dislikes, etc. But that does not mean we are going to be friends forever. I already hate some of them and know I'm not talking to them 10 years into the future. Great compatibility, poor upkeep.

All that calculator is saying is that you have a higher affinity to be compatible in love matters. It is not saying your synastry is great or the composite is great or that you will be happy ever after if you rating is super high. Compatibility in love just means you have a similar outlook in love. That doesn't mean you'll last and the vice versa doesn't mean you're doomed. It is just common knowledge that people often share similarities to their long-term partners. Very rarely do we marry our COMPLETE opposites, though it is possible.

To put this into better terms, imagine you meet someone who has the same OR extremely similar hobbies and like and dislikes as you. You're very compatible. But you meet and talk and realize lol we are definitely not getting married. The vibe just isn't there. Compatibility is just saying you are similar, it means you click together somehow. That doesn't mean you'll last forever though.

You should also remember that having squares and opposites does not automatically equal doom and gloom and a bunch of conjunctions and trines and sextiles does not always equal happy times forever.

Squares are compatible, though they come from different points, they are the same modality. Oppositions are compatible, though they come from the exact opposite side of the spectrum. The only TRULY incompatibles are inconjunctions and the semi-sextile. But even then, they can be worked around. I would only cry over squares and inconjunctions if they dominated the synastry and composite and there were literally few few few of any positive aspect.

It specifically says on astrotheme:

"With just your dates of birth, this free compatibility application enables you to find out how smoothly your relationship is likely to develop. It does not address its quality. Kindly note that without the time and place of birth, the rating thus obtained is a mere indication.

I some extreme cases, the discrepancy may be up to 25% or 30%, compared with the rating which is produced if the time and place of birth were known, for instance if the angles of the charts are particularly important.

Nevertheless, it constitutes interesting quick pieces of information about your affinities, since it incorporates all the specifics of your respective approximate natal charts.

If you know your respective time and place of birth, our Compatibility Report is a valuable tool that offers deeper insights into your couple. Our engrossing analyses help you understand your partner and explain how you can get closer to each other. "

Thank you for your responses capricorncheriscty. Honestly, I am aware of all that you have wrote as well as todd's point on the program being limited to the knowledge of the programmer. To be honest, I was really just hoping people would come in here and poke holes, and try to refute the 100% score by pointing out downfalls of the relationship from the synastry and composite.

While I would like to be in a relationship, I don't want to get in over my head just because I see a 100% score on some calculator. I am trying to get an outsider's perspective to bring me to reality. Although I don't believe it matters much what our compatibility is like on our charts, as they may be unavailable and in a relationship anyways, and there is a physical distance between us. I am guessing that reflects in our venus-uranus aspects in both synastry and composite.

Arcturiann, what I see is those semisextile ASC's: your presentation styles are too different. Overall scalar synastry potential is only 50%. In other words, average (meh).

Interesting. Even with their venus conjunct my ascendant there? Their chart itself has a lot of semisextiles. Also very curious what scalar synastry potential is! Is that something you calculate yourself..?
