I opted for a simple "yes" or "no" because I am certain that the insightful members of this wonderful community will supplement their responses with examples, personal experiences, etc.
For added nuance: I'd love to hear about experiences that address synastry with "classic" aspects/house placements that simply did not hold in reality. In my case, the Moon is one of the weakest planets in my chart and I've found aspects to my Moon in synastry to hold no real weight, i.e. it means nothing. I have NEVER been with a man whose Sun conjuncts/trines/sextiles/squares/opposes my Moon, for example. Au contraire, I can find myself so engaged with someone who hasn't any personal planets to my Moon, meanwhile those that do touch it (with Mars or Venus) eventually get on my nerves and prove to be easy to disconnect from. Also, 7th house synastry is obsolete in my world. 5th and 8th are not activated much either, their effects are minimal and ephemeral. Most men I have had intense connections with put planets in my 10th, 1st, and 12th. In fact, every man I have been deeply attracted to and interested in had a planet conjunct my MC. Let him be a Capricorn Sun and it's game over for my cold little heart.
Let's hear it...

I voted "no" and I have an infamous example of this in my life. I've known this person going on three years now, and nothing has materialized between us in spite of the chemistry we share. I had a popular astrologer look at our composite once and he said, "there is such a divine love between you both, yet an unconscious hesitance" which pretty much sums this up perfectly.
We have a lot of "classic' things in our synastry:
Sun aspects? Those are important!
Sun semi-sextile Sun (0°)
What about the other luminaries?
Oh you want luminaries? We got luminaries..
My Moon conjunct his Mars (5°)
Yeah but you need some nodal aspects..
My North Node conjunct his Mars (4°)
His North Node conjunct my Mars (1°)
Well.. the Vertex...
His North Node conjunct my Vertex (0°)
Double whammies would have been significant though..
His Moon conjunct my Venus (3°)
My Moon trine his Venus (3°)
Uh the... angles...?
True I have no idea how that would add up since I don't know his birth time.
Anyway.. worse synastries have yielded way better fruit (actual relationships) for me.

I find your last sentence so hilarious. I was thinking about this yesterday-- except "worse synastries" in my world are typically considered "better" for most people. Nice contacts materialize in reality because they pose little actual complication but leave me agitated and underwhelmed. Heavy contacts (intense Saturn/Pluto/Neptune business) rarely materialize without hard work and high-drama but they keep me put and focused. I am in a similar situation, where the synastry is quite impeccable and the chemistry in person is felt to a rather tantalizing degree. Except, true to Saturnian form, it is kept under wraps and sealed shut with proper comportment, leaving with it an obvious trail of "unconscious hesitation", as you stated. What is happening to the 12th house (rulers, the house itself)--yours, his, and the composite's? I think the key might lie there to understanding where, how, and why things seem to falter between the two of you. |

I totally see where you both are coming from. But I voted "yes." Speaking from experience, this is the one that just kills me....... Sun trine sun Sun opposing moon Mercury trine Mercury Mars trine Mars Venus opposing Jupiter both ways Venus-Mars conjunct Pluto Other stuff Interesting that you mainly listed trines and oppositions... Does that mirror your chart at all? |

Is this only natal-natal synastry?
I answered no
The romantic relationship where i felt most secure was with someone who's moon squared my own. We are still close friends now.
The relationship where i felt least secure was with someone who's moon trined my own and their moon was also in my 4th house and we had sun-sun conjunction(though a little wide). We are close friends now but it was tough back then. We also have venus square uranus in composite and natal synastries.
I seem to work better with trines,sextiles and squares to venus/mars.
My saturn contacts tend to be draconic to natal with the exception of one relationship.
Pls dnt quote

I can't decide actually. What I do know is that I tend to get on better with suns and moons that aren't supposed to get on with my Taurus planets. I'm talking Gemini mainly, I seem to attract and keep those influenced, but then if its early Gem then they probably put their sun or whatever in my 11th house anyway, where my own planets are, so I can't decide what to put really.
Also early Gem will oppose my Vertex and I always feel those contacts.
I never had knockout synastry though and the composites have been sort of meh too.

If I understand the poll, I have to vote yes. For me, relationships just never start without synastry. Even family. Grandmothers (one sun trine sun, the other sun semi sextile sun) mother and father (they had Mars conjunct Saturn dw, conjunct my sun and conjunct my Venus conjunct NN), daughter (who doesn't want me to share her chart, but there is synastry)...
Even before I knew my chart, I experienced things only explained by synastry, like how I seemed to have so many people born on the 13th in my life (sun synastry) or how my life went rather crazy around the 3rd week of October, and I drew people with late October birthdays to me (ascendant - sun synastry).
Synastry is what verified the veracity of astrology to me
