Synastry, compatibility, composite horoscope
Love Horoscope and Relationships
Synastry (the compatibility of two horoscopes) is a branch of astrology that explores the connections between two horoscopes or analyzes the impact of one upon the other. Before approaching synastry, it is good to have a deeper understanding of ourselves, our behavioral patterns, and our expectations of others.
It is also good to remind ourselves that in all relationships with others, it is usually much easier to change our own behavior than to try to change the other person.
The goal of synastric analysis is to explore the potential and possible problems of a relationship, to understand how one influences the other, and what the impact of this relationship is on the destiny of both. This analysis does not judge whether a relationship is good or bad, and if used in this way, it would truly be a pity because it would discredit the possibilities and significance of this relationship in our lives.
The law of attraction, true in both metaphysics and psychology, is what determines our affinity for certain people or the people who feel attracted to us. The other, no less important principle is the law of karma. Very often we are attracted to people different from us precisely because we subconsciously sense certain deficiencies or compensate through our partners for qualities we would like to develop. In addition, not all of us need harmonious relationships; many of us prefer relationships with more friction and dynamics for one reason or another.
If a certain relationship is difficult or unhappy, it is possible that we attracted it to ourselves due to an unconscious conflict in our personality, and the goal is to grow, to realize our inner problem in the process of the difficult relationships. Some people need to develop courage, to learn to say "no" and stand up for their own interests when a relationship becomes harmful to them. In this way, it sometimes becomes possible to entirely transfer their lives to another level.
A large part of this section is dedicated to love and marriage. Love is an emotion, romance. Certain aspects between the planets in the two horoscopes almost always create the magical state of "being in love" or strong sexual attraction - "chemistry". Marriage is definitely a different story; it is contracted for different reasons and in order to be long-lasting it needs a different chemistry, i.e., interaction. Whether it starts with strong physical and romantic attraction or not, its success largely depends on the intellectual and spiritual compatibility of the partners, the degree of their shared interests, their ethics, and so on. In this sense, experience shows that other aspects between planets are necessary for a relationship to be stable and enduring.
Very interesting is the compatibility between parents and children, and the analysis of these relationships almost nearly leads to a fuller acceptance of the inevitable differences in a family. No matter how much parents love their children, they tend to judge both their child's child's potential and prospects for development from their own perspective. Sometimes conflicts are caused by aspects where the parent is perceived as very authoritarian, but there are also aspects where for one reason or another the grown-up child tries to be a teacher or authority to the parent. And then upbringing can become very difficult.
Our compatibility with those we work with is also important. Negative, stress-creating aspects in the horoscopes of people working in the same team can be experienced very heavily or hinder the unfolding of potential. There are also aspects that predispose two people to bring out the worst in each other of which they are capable and thus make it impossible to achieve any common goals. There are aspects that presuppose dishonesty, deceit, which sometimes happens under strange circumstances. There are aspects that define luck in a joint endeavor, without which even the best-intentioned partners do not achieve success.
It is also good to know that compatibility analyses in various astrological programs are very general and can be used as a general overview, but not for any serious conclusions. It is good to filter out only those aspects that are very close to exact - for example 2 to 4 degrees, to delve into them and not give great weight to aspects with wide orbs - e.g., 8, 10 degrees, which are calculated by most astrological programs. Of course, there are additional rules here for individual aspects.
Composite horoscopes, which are a new element in this section, have a more specific purpose and according to astrologers who study them, it is good to analyze them if the relationship is at least one or two years old and people have realized certain elements of their relationship.
According to researchers, composites define rather the mission, the purpose of the relationship.
