What I don't understand is why oppositions in a composite are interpreted as something of conflict, if in fact the midpoints are just projected on 2 different sides of an axis, but could as well be projected as a conjunction?Oppositions in a composite are actually conjunctions, no? IP: Logged |

Hi AlmaRegulus,
in my view, it depends on which aspects. If you have Jupiter opposite Juno, Moon or Venus, I would look at it in a positive way, as it were a conujnction. If it's Saturn opposition or Mars opposite Pluto, Saturn opposite Pluto, Uranus opposite Moon etc, for instance, I wouldn't look at it positively, but as a slighly challenging aspect to be worked out.

Thank you Stoika7!What I meant was rather that placements in a composite are midpoints which exist as sort of an axis. I guess they are projected in a composite on the side which is at a shortest distance from partners' placements. But they also exist on the mirrored side. Say, parrner1 has Venus at 0* Libra and partner2 at 30* Libra. The composite Venus would be at 15* Libra, but it could as well be placed at 15* Aries. So, if composite Mars is at 15* Aries, it is not really opposite to the composite Venus, since composite Venus could as well be placed by the longer route on 15* Aries. I mean this place is ALSO a midpoint for the two Venuses, right? IP: Logged |

AlmaRegulus - I know just what you mean of course. What's the point of oppositions? Arguably, the opposition dynamic does not exist in composite charts. I have a current composite that is all opposites (it's a particular chart figuration called see-saw/worrier pattern) and I'm thinking - well, that would/could be all the planets lined up over two consecutive houses, right. Ie, the mid-point could be either side, right? So what's the deal? Anyone got insight? IP: Logged |

I have composite Sun-Moon opposition with my first wife. What we manifested as a couple was quite different than what would manifest as a composite Sun-Moon conjunction. So, it seems that you cannot equate a Full Moon with a New Moon -- even though they are both powerful Sun-Moon connections. Consider the natal placements. My Aries 25 Sun and her Sag 13 Sun: midpoint is Aqua 19. My Gemini 30 Moon and her Libra 23 Moon: midpoint 27 Leo. Our composite Sun Aqua 19 is opposite Moon 27 Leo, which acts like a separating Full Moon in our midpoint composite. IP: Logged | |
