I’m trying to understand the quincunx in synastry. I know there’s some friction and it requires some accommodating. Is it a binary energy, like a zero sum either-or scenario?For example, Venus quincunx Sun in synastry. If he is shining (sun) does that mean I feel less attractive (Venus) or my self-care takes a hit?
How would Venus quincunx Venus play out? Both partners take turns on the auxiliary cable? Haha. (While being a bit uncomfortable through the other’s songs?) Or both partners take turns — okay first I’m loved how I want, then you’re loved how you want, the methods and tastes are different but Venus can accommodate that? (because… well, Venus
)
Oppositions I understand: there’s an attraction like eyes meeting across the room, but totally opposite approaches and styles.
Squares in synastry feel like makeup sex or a bit clashing and abrasive but you kind of stick together in the relationship until one or both are hurt. But it can work, depending on the planets involved. Just a bit of a fight sometimes with that hard angle.
Can anyone share what it felt like to be in quincunx in their relationship?
