The composite chart represents the fusion of<br />
energy that two people create when they<br />
come together. It is a third being. Like a child,<br />
it inherits qualities of both parents, though it<br />
has a life all its own <strong>and</strong> exists independently<br />
of either of them. The following<br />
interpretations should be regarded as being<br />
for the relationship itself, taken as an<br />
independent entity, as this relates to the<br />
meaning for each individual within it.<br />
Chart Patterns<br />
Important Features<br />
Composite Uranus in Capricorn<br />
(4° Cap 54')<br />
Composite Uranus in the Ninth<br />
House<br />
Uranus in the composite chart reveals the area<br />
of your shared experience where you will<br />
encounter unusual <strong>and</strong> unexpected<br />
circumstances <strong>and</strong> where the relationship<br />
benefits from lack of structure.<br />
Uranus in the Ninth House (or sign) brings to<br />
your relationship an original <strong>and</strong> inventive<br />
cast of mind, with strong intuitive powers.<br />
There is likely to be an inherent love of<br />
philosophy <strong>and</strong> higher learning. With this<br />
placement you two tend to share strong<br />
religious, or religious-like beliefs, although<br />
perhaps expressed in an unconventional<br />
manner. In a romantic relationship you have a<br />
harmonious higher mind connection with<br />
each other <strong>and</strong> will always have plenty to<br />
discuss. You are likely to enjoy the exploration<br />
of new horizons together, either mentally or<br />
through travel, <strong>and</strong> you might need to be<br />
ready to jump into the car at a moment's<br />
notice. You share a powerful sense of<br />
optimism <strong>and</strong> a tendency for reckless<br />
behavior at times, since together you may not<br />
always look before you leap, <strong>and</strong> you benefit<br />
from exercising caution when it is appropriate<br />
to do so. As a partnership you possess high<br />
ideals, <strong>and</strong> share a capacity to visualize new<br />
possibilities rather than accept an outmoded<br />
status quo. You may have come together in<br />
part in order to support each other through<br />
this very process. At your best, you have the<br />
faith to bring forth, in leaps <strong>and</strong> bounds, a<br />
new vision for yourself <strong>and</strong> society at large.<br />
Composite Uranus in Capricorn (or the tenth<br />
house) brings to your relationship an<br />
ambitious <strong>and</strong> willful quality that can be both<br />
rebellious of authority <strong>and</strong> also somewhat
2<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
hung up about it. With this placement you are<br />
definitely non-conformist as a duo. Together,<br />
you have a strong imagination <strong>and</strong> are so sure<br />
of yourselves that you often cannot be<br />
argued out of your opinion, which can be<br />
unique at times. In a romantic relationship,<br />
you may feel that you have an important<br />
destiny together, but you are not always sure<br />
what it is. You need space from each other at<br />
times as much as you need closeness, <strong>and</strong><br />
your joint motivation tends toward the social<br />
rather than the personal. You may find<br />
fluctuation in your concept of the reason that<br />
you have come together. Regardless of the<br />
type of relationship you share, you have an<br />
impulse toward prestige <strong>and</strong> authority, but<br />
may find yourself bored with conventional<br />
approaches to attain it. You benefit when you<br />
challenge yourselves to move away from<br />
knee-jerk reactions against established<br />
authority, toward setting yourselves up as<br />
your own personal authority, in your own way,<br />
making your highly articulated <strong>and</strong> original<br />
vision available to society at large.<br />
Composite Jupiter in Cancer<br />
(25° Can 02')<br />
Composite Jupiter in the Third<br />
House<br />
Angular planet - conjunct Nadir<br />
Jupiter in the composite chart reveals the area<br />
of your shared experience where you will find<br />
mutual good fortune <strong>and</strong> faith in positive<br />
outcomes.<br />
Jupiter in the Third House (or sign) magnifies<br />
the charming, talkative, <strong>and</strong> clever aspects of<br />
your relationship <strong>and</strong> promotes growth<br />
through communication. You tend to move in<br />
similar rhythms through your day <strong>and</strong> enjoy<br />
your time together, whether it is scheduled or<br />
free time that you share. Although you two<br />
may become somewhat scattered in each<br />
other's company, you share an inquisitiveness<br />
about life <strong>and</strong> an appetite to learn more <strong>and</strong><br />
more regarding just about any subject. In a<br />
romantic relationship, your penchant for<br />
good communication in written or verbal<br />
forms brings a great deal of interest to your<br />
conversations with each other. You will never<br />
tire of things to talk about, <strong>and</strong> may get into a<br />
joint writing project of some kind. Your<br />
relationship also grows through travel,<br />
intellectual pursuits of all kinds <strong>and</strong> any sort<br />
of effort spent on education. Optimistic <strong>and</strong><br />
changeable, you two see the value <strong>and</strong><br />
benefit of many different pursuits, so that it<br />
may be wise for you to narrow down <strong>and</strong><br />
attempt greater focus. You also benefit when<br />
you think matters through together before<br />
making decisions <strong>and</strong> learn to keep your own<br />
council. When you are operating at your<br />
highest level your relationship's tendency<br />
toward superficiality <strong>and</strong> the scattering of<br />
your energies becomes the cultivation of<br />
depth as well as breadth of awareness <strong>and</strong> a<br />
universal curiosity that leads to higher<br />
wisdom.<br />
Composite Jupiter in Cancer (or the fourth<br />
house) magnifies the loving, kind <strong>and</strong> caring<br />
qualities within your relationship. Your<br />
connection with each other is likely to be
3<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
friendly <strong>and</strong> sociable, generous <strong>and</strong> highminded.<br />
You two have an instinct for<br />
nurturing others as well as yourselves, <strong>and</strong><br />
find enjoyment, opportunity <strong>and</strong> growth in<br />
this type of tribal sharing. Together you may<br />
possess excellent executive abilities. You<br />
share an inherent<br />
spirituality, which is<br />
displayed not in philosophy, but in acts of love<br />
<strong>and</strong> kindness. You work well in partnership<br />
with the public, <strong>and</strong> attract material rewards<br />
without seeming to try for them. In a romantic<br />
relationship, you share a natural sense of<br />
security, <strong>and</strong> enjoy each other's family <strong>and</strong><br />
your own if you have one together. You will<br />
have good luck with finding <strong>and</strong> maintaining a<br />
joyful <strong>and</strong> beneficial home environment. You<br />
may find that you bring out the best part of<br />
each other's relationship to your early<br />
conditioning. You may also find a sense of<br />
contentment in performing the simple chores<br />
around your shared environment. This<br />
relationship will undoubtedly help to exp<strong>and</strong><br />
the consciousness within each of you<br />
regarding your background <strong>and</strong> sense of<br />
security, <strong>and</strong> facilitates your shared<br />
exploration of the mystical <strong>and</strong> the marvelous<br />
side of life.<br />
Composite Moon in Gemini<br />
(26° Gem 10' 34")<br />
Composite Moon in the<br />
Second House<br />
The placement of the composite Moon defines<br />
the core emotional focus of your relationship.<br />
It indicates the most sensitive area between<br />
you.<br />
The composite Moon in the Second House<br />
indicates a relationship that may be largely<br />
based on fulfilling security needs. The<br />
strongest emotional bond between you<br />
involves finances <strong>and</strong> the resources of the<br />
material world, which is likely to be an<br />
important focus of your connection. In a<br />
romantic context, the need for emotional<br />
security may be very strong in one or both of<br />
you, <strong>and</strong> this relationship provides a safe<br />
harbor. The natural gift of this placement can<br />
also manifest in a shared emphasis on<br />
creating a nest, a sanctuary that provides<br />
physical security for the two of you, <strong>and</strong> for<br />
those you love. This placement is also<br />
especially good for customer-provider<br />
relationships of one kind or another. You may<br />
find that one partner takes a special interest<br />
helping the other materially, or that you<br />
naturally find yourselves taking on a joint<br />
financial project together. In any case, you will<br />
find few disagreements with each other when<br />
it comes to money or material things.<br />
The composite Moon in Gemini symbolizes a<br />
relationship where a high level of verbal<br />
communication <strong>and</strong> exchange provides a<br />
sense of emotional security between you.<br />
Together, you tend to keep in close touch <strong>and</strong><br />
enjoy a shared glibness of tongue when<br />
conversing. This placement enhances your<br />
shared experience of the changing moment<br />
rather than the long term. While enjoying the<br />
smartness <strong>and</strong> versatility of your exchanges,<br />
you may also need to soften what can be an<br />
overly critical approach at times. In a romantic
4<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
relationship, your ability to express your<br />
feelings to each other allows for great<br />
flexibility <strong>and</strong> mutual satisfaction between<br />
you. You will also never tire of conversation<br />
with each other. Together, you like to express<br />
your opinions, <strong>and</strong> tend to react to situations<br />
by thinking, rather than with feeling or direct<br />
action. In a community or business setting,<br />
this placement brings excellence to<br />
networking, mediating, promoting <strong>and</strong> the<br />
general dissemination of information.<br />
Composite Sun in Scorpio (5°<br />
Sco 44' 51")<br />
Composite Sun in the Seventh<br />
House<br />
Angular planet - conjunct<br />
Descendant<br />
The placement of the composite Sun defines<br />
the core identity of your relationship, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
place where it finds its greatest vitality. It<br />
gives you a sense of the predominant flavor of<br />
the relationship.<br />
The composite Sun in the Seventh House<br />
indicates a relationship where each of you<br />
gain vitality from relating intimately with<br />
each other <strong>and</strong> with those around you. This is<br />
an excellent indicator for all type of<br />
partnership, <strong>and</strong> implies an active orientation<br />
toward fully sharing your goals <strong>and</strong> activities.<br />
In a romantic partnership, you keenly feel how<br />
this relationship can begin to flesh out your<br />
unconscious areas of self. You have an<br />
intuitive sense of what the partnership<br />
requires <strong>and</strong> a shared awareness that the sum<br />
here definitely adds up to something more<br />
than its parts. There may be a tendency for<br />
both of you <strong>and</strong> your individual identities to<br />
disappear within the shelter of the<br />
relationship, transforming both of you into<br />
something new. It is likely that you see in each<br />
other someone who reflects your deeper self,<br />
<strong>and</strong> that together, you will to gravitate<br />
toward others who reflect that same depth. In<br />
a more business-oriented partnership, you<br />
likely have much in common with your<br />
approach, <strong>and</strong> are willing to see the joint<br />
effort as more important than what you can<br />
accomplish individually. Whatever you seek to<br />
accomplish together has a good chance of<br />
positive results. You only need to be aware<br />
that there are in fact two individuals<br />
operating here, so as not to lose your<br />
individual perspectives in the shared effort.<br />
With the Composite Sun in Scorpio, this<br />
relationship centers on transformation <strong>and</strong><br />
regeneration, whether through a mutual<br />
interest in sexuality or in some other equally<br />
powerful death-rebirth process. Your joint<br />
will as a partnership is strong, <strong>and</strong> you let<br />
nothing st<strong>and</strong> in your way. Together, you are<br />
likely to underst<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> work well with group<br />
dynamics <strong>and</strong> the public in general. When you<br />
put your heads together, you tend to become<br />
shrewd judges of other people's motives. You<br />
also have a good sense of shared<br />
commitment. In a romantic connection, you<br />
tend to start slowly <strong>and</strong> then fuse strongly.<br />
Sexuality <strong>and</strong> powerful feelings run deep <strong>and</strong><br />
personal magnetism runs high. You make a<br />
very seductive, persuasive <strong>and</strong> sometimes
5<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
even a coercive couple. There are likely to be<br />
strong emotions in each of you that are<br />
brought up by your interaction together, <strong>and</strong><br />
it may help to break up the intensity with<br />
some regular laughter. Although this<br />
relationship may evoke suffering, the pain<br />
that is generated will eventually lead to an<br />
experience of profound transformation in<br />
each of you. Although you may use your keen<br />
sense of perception with each other toward<br />
selfish <strong>and</strong> sometimes manipulative ends, the<br />
more in line you are with your own higher<br />
natures, the more this relationship will serve<br />
transformative ends for each of you <strong>and</strong> help<br />
you to participate in the metamorphosis of<br />
society itself.<br />
Composite Mars in Aquarius<br />
(10° Aqu 55')<br />
Composite Mars in the Tenth<br />
House<br />
The placement of Mars in the composite chart<br />
reveals the area of your shared activity in<br />
pursuit of partnership goals, <strong>and</strong> where ego<br />
needs may be identified.<br />
Mars in the Tenth House (or sign) brings out<br />
an ambitious, vigorous <strong>and</strong> persistent quality<br />
in your relationship, with a conservative <strong>and</strong><br />
careful drive that almost always reaches its<br />
goals. You generally work well together <strong>and</strong><br />
are motivated toward achievement, with a<br />
naturally controlled energy that lends itself<br />
to effective leadership as long as there are<br />
few issues regarding cooperation between<br />
you. This placement makes for an effective<br />
working relationship, especially for projects<br />
that require a high degree of intensity. Your<br />
joint action is also likely to be guided by social<br />
convention. In a romantic context, you have a<br />
physically active relationship that needs to<br />
work hard <strong>and</strong> play hard together. You may<br />
need to cultivate warmth, sensitivity <strong>and</strong> a<br />
spirit of cooperation <strong>and</strong> learn to substitute<br />
these for your natural inclination toward<br />
scorekeeping. As a partnership, you tend to<br />
move forward together with an elegance that<br />
arises out of a concentrated, simple, <strong>and</strong><br />
straightforward approach. You are goal<br />
oriented <strong>and</strong> your actions are usually directed<br />
rather than impulsive. You may benefit from<br />
cultivating greater spontaneity.<br />
Composite Mars in Aquarius (or the eleventh<br />
house) brings out an idealistic, socially<br />
oriented <strong>and</strong> multidimensional drive in your<br />
relationship. This placement can take out the<br />
rough edges that each of you may individually<br />
harbor <strong>and</strong> bring you together in a way that<br />
benefits both the partnership <strong>and</strong> the greater<br />
world that surrounds you. You two tend to cocreate<br />
in an enterprising <strong>and</strong> ambitious way<br />
<strong>and</strong> make classic teammates working<br />
together toward socially life-enhancing goals.<br />
In a romantic relationship, you may need to<br />
become aware of the way you direct your<br />
shared activity, giving priority time to your<br />
personal issues as well as planetary goals, so<br />
that your partnership rests on a sturdy<br />
foundation. You are likely to be friends as well<br />
as lovers, which enhances your bond with<br />
each other although it may dim your passion.
6<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
Together you easily tolerate each other's<br />
differences <strong>and</strong> support each other's goals so<br />
that in the best of your connection with each<br />
other, you move to the clear beat of the same<br />
drummer.<br />
Angular Planets<br />
Sun, Moon, Rising Sign<br />
Features<br />
Taurus Rising<br />
The composite Rising Sign is the image that<br />
this partnership presents to others <strong>and</strong><br />
characterizes the nature of the relationship.<br />
<strong>Relationship</strong>s with composite Taurus rising<br />
tend to orient themselves to the pleasures of<br />
life. You will likely find that together you<br />
value pleasure <strong>and</strong> material things. Your<br />
ruling planet is Venus, <strong>and</strong> you may find that<br />
you have an artistic flair both as a partnership,<br />
<strong>and</strong> also individually whenever you come<br />
together. You also may find that this is a<br />
healing relationship. Your partnership brings<br />
out qualities of obedience, loyalty <strong>and</strong><br />
kindness in each of you. Although as a duo you<br />
may seem quiet on the surface, almost<br />
passive, you possess a powerful joint will, <strong>and</strong><br />
may be inspired to be quite stubborn at times.<br />
You tend to hold on strongly to projects that<br />
you mutually put your heart into, <strong>and</strong><br />
together you possess the ability to breathe<br />
new life into an almost lost cause. In a<br />
romantic relationship, you share a sensual<br />
desire for close contact with one another. You<br />
are also likely to crave the security <strong>and</strong><br />
comfort of relaxing in the warmth of your<br />
private environment. If you share a home you<br />
will work hard to make it an attractive one.<br />
Your partnership is quite a pragmatic one,<br />
having a practical basis that provides you with<br />
purpose, productivity <strong>and</strong> stability, although<br />
you may also find that you can get rigid in your<br />
thinking at times. Material rewards come<br />
easily to you, enabling you to lead the good<br />
life without being excessively concerned<br />
about it. You benefit as a partnership by<br />
staying as open as you can to new possibilities<br />
when they arise.<br />
Composite Sun in opposition<br />
(within 5.4 degrees) with<br />
Ascendant<br />
The planetary energies are polarized; outer<br />
events stimulate their interaction; integration<br />
is the challenge.<br />
This aspect between the Composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
Ascendant signifies a relationship that is<br />
strong-willed <strong>and</strong> generous in regard to the<br />
impact that it makes in the world. As a<br />
partnership, you are likely to be intensely<br />
involved with one another, because you feel<br />
that as a team you are able to accomplish<br />
more than the sum of the two of you in<br />
separation. You are a mutual fan club for each<br />
other. When you entertain or make a social<br />
impact as a couple, you expect to be the<br />
center of attention, <strong>and</strong> often are. Your<br />
relationship has great energy <strong>and</strong> staying
7<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
power that goes a long way to ameliorating<br />
any other deficits that might exist. Your<br />
challenge in all this is to stay centered <strong>and</strong> to<br />
become more self-aware, to refrain from<br />
arrogance or egotism, <strong>and</strong> rather to develop<br />
humility <strong>and</strong> compassion for others around<br />
you.<br />
Composite Moon in sextile<br />
(within 4.2 degrees) with<br />
Ascendant<br />
The planetary energies flow together, open<br />
into new possibilities, new connections.<br />
This aspect between the Composite Moon<br />
<strong>and</strong> Ascendant signifies a nurturing <strong>and</strong><br />
protective relationship. As a partnership you<br />
are subtle in your actions, rather than direct,<br />
<strong>and</strong> are likely to reflect the moods of those<br />
around you. You have a strong basis of<br />
security in your home <strong>and</strong> family as a<br />
foundation. Others see you very clearly, <strong>and</strong><br />
the connection between you, since when you<br />
are together you show your emotions readily.<br />
Whether you find yourselves a romantic<br />
relationship or a friendship, you tend to act<br />
from an almost instinctual basis, <strong>and</strong> are truly<br />
protective of one another. Since you feel so<br />
cared for, there is a tendency for individuality<br />
<strong>and</strong> consciousness to get lost in the shuffle,<br />
<strong>and</strong> you benefit from shedding the light of<br />
conscious reason on your habitual patterns,<br />
<strong>and</strong> working toward greater focus on your<br />
individual goals.<br />
Composite Jupiter in square<br />
(within 5.3 degrees) with<br />
Ascendant<br />
The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />
creative tensions bring rich rewards through<br />
effort over time.<br />
This aspect between Composite Jupiter <strong>and</strong><br />
Ascendant signifies an optimistic <strong>and</strong> growth<br />
oriented relationship, with high ideals <strong>and</strong><br />
good vitality. As a partnership, you are<br />
spiritually motivated, <strong>and</strong> possess a quiet<br />
strength which is invariably helpful to others<br />
<strong>and</strong> which takes you far in the world. This is an<br />
excellent aspect for success especially in a<br />
business relationship, or in a romantic<br />
relationship or friendship that has an<br />
additional career orientation. As a<br />
partnership, you might only have to guard<br />
against being overly optimistic at times, for<br />
your enthusiasm for life takes you far. Honors<br />
<strong>and</strong> material success accompany your union.<br />
You are attracted to higher learning, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
fine arts, <strong>and</strong> you are courageous in your<br />
approach to shared goals. You do not<br />
necessarily reach out to others, being content<br />
with your own society, although you will<br />
undoubtedly garner respect for your<br />
presence as a pair, <strong>and</strong> together you make<br />
loyal friends <strong>and</strong> few enemies. You are<br />
possessed of similar outlooks, <strong>and</strong> are likely<br />
to share a system of belief. Your philosophical<br />
common ground may prove to be a mainstay<br />
of your connection with each other.

Composite Uranus in trine<br />
(within 4.6 degrees) with<br />
Ascendant<br />
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the<br />
connection is easy <strong>and</strong> beneficial.<br />
This aspect between Composite Uranus <strong>and</strong><br />
Ascendant signifies an eclectic <strong>and</strong> exciting<br />
relationship. Within this relationship, you<br />
have a cosmic connection to a level of<br />
intuition far beyond the confines of the<br />
physical plane. This makes for an unusual <strong>and</strong><br />
perhaps even eccentric partnership. Over<br />
time you need to decide what you want to get<br />
out of the relationship <strong>and</strong> adjust<br />
expectations to match what is actually<br />
available. In a business or friendship<br />
connection there will be plenty of good ideas<br />
floating around, <strong>and</strong> you will be constantly<br />
amused <strong>and</strong> challenged by the next horizon of<br />
what you are attempting to achieve together.<br />
However in a love relationship there will<br />
necessarily be some major adjustments that<br />
you will have to make. One of you may feel<br />
the need to pursue an individual path of<br />
growth that is totally independent from the<br />
other's input.<br />

The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />
creative tensions bring rich rewards through<br />
effort over time.<br />
This aspect between Composite Chiron <strong>and</strong><br />
Ascendant signifies a relationship with a great<br />
deal of healing potential. One or both of you<br />
are likely to experience painful realizations<br />
through the agency of this relationship that<br />
will enable you to recognize <strong>and</strong> eventually<br />
heal important issues that you face. There<br />
may be difficulties that come up between you<br />
for greater underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> eventual<br />
acceptance <strong>and</strong> healing, <strong>and</strong> you will also<br />
encounter sympathy from your partner for<br />
your own process, enabling you to move<br />
forward into wholeness more fully. Chiron is<br />
called "the wounded healer" because it<br />
represents the archetype of imperfection <strong>and</strong><br />
loss which when integrated leads to<br />
compassion <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of your own<br />
<strong>and</strong> others' suffering. In the past, one or both<br />
of you have probably experienced pain <strong>and</strong><br />
frustration related to your self-concept, or<br />
there could have been trauma in your early<br />
years concerning parental protection which<br />
may have been withdrawn too suddenly or<br />
misapplied, or perhaps similar issues that<br />
arose with peers. These types of early<br />
traumas often lie buried behind walls of<br />
denial, <strong>and</strong> only when they are accepted <strong>and</strong><br />
brought to conscious awareness can true<br />
healing begin to take place. There are longburied<br />
issues that may come up for you with<br />
this particular partner where you can make<br />
enormous progress as you work through<br />
them realistically <strong>and</strong> honestly. The empathy<br />
<strong>and</strong> the underst<strong>and</strong>ing of your own <strong>and</strong> your<br />
partner's issues that emerge from such a
9<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
deep relationship will serve you well later in<br />
life. Since you have come through the fires of<br />
difficulty you are likely as a partnership to be<br />
interested in the helping professions, <strong>and</strong><br />
may eventually assist others in reaching<br />
better levels of acceptance <strong>and</strong> integration of<br />
their own dark places.<br />
Composite Sun in strong<br />
sextile<br />
(within 0.9 degrees) with<br />
Uranus<br />
The planetary energies flow together, open<br />
into new possibilities, new connections.<br />
With this aspect between composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
Uranus, your relationship has an eccentric <strong>and</strong><br />
uniquely idealistic quality. This aspect<br />
indicates an independent <strong>and</strong> strong-willed<br />
relationship. You two are determined to do<br />
things your own way, <strong>and</strong> love freedom from<br />
conformity. Together, you tend to explore all<br />
things new <strong>and</strong> unusual as a matter of course.<br />
You don't have to go out of your way to find<br />
them; they tend to find you first. You likely<br />
support each other to start new projects, or<br />
make major changes in your lives, <strong>and</strong> you<br />
share the gift of transforming yourselves<br />
without completely eliminating previous<br />
foundations. Together you tend to rebel<br />
against the norm, <strong>and</strong> generally do so with<br />
style. You have the capacity to support each<br />
other in inventing new approaches <strong>and</strong><br />
developing original thinking. This way you<br />
help each other to push the envelope of<br />
conventionality. In a romantic context, your<br />
relationship may need lots of space. Give each<br />
other a long leash, <strong>and</strong> you are likely to find a<br />
rhythm that includes regular time both<br />
together <strong>and</strong> apart, allowing fruitful<br />
continuity. Your penchant for the new, the<br />
unusual, <strong>and</strong> the downright quirky will add<br />
much adventure to your life together. You<br />
two are ultramodern in outlook, <strong>and</strong> tend to<br />
bring new ideas into being on behalf of your<br />
larger community. Your task is to fully express<br />
your visionary impulses together <strong>and</strong> make<br />
them more concretely available in your own<br />
lives, <strong>and</strong> in the larger world.<br />

This placement gives your relationship strong<br />

delight in mental pursuits. You two naturally<br />

saying even before they have finished saying<br />
it.<br />

RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
This aspect between composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
Venus indicates affection <strong>and</strong> closeness<br />
between you but with values that may not<br />
always be in sync with each other. It can be of<br />
help to create a communication system that<br />
allows you to gently address your differing<br />
needs in a way that they can be heard <strong>and</strong><br />
responded to. You benefit when you learn to<br />
take turns with each other, to compromise<br />
<strong>and</strong> to experiment with weaving your<br />
differing ways into a wholly new <strong>and</strong><br />
synergistic form.<br />
Composite Sun in square<br />
(within 5.2 degrees) with Mars<br />
The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />
creative tensions bring rich rewards through<br />
effort over time.<br />
This aspect between composite Sun <strong>and</strong> Mars<br />
brings a rash quality to your relationship, <strong>and</strong><br />
a creative tension. You may find that you are<br />
restless together, <strong>and</strong> that your individual<br />
tempers quicken. You may trigger each other<br />
so easily that you then act out impulsively,<br />
perhaps against your own better thinking.<br />
You will also likely find in yourselves a<br />
tendency toward argument based on a deepseated<br />
need to be understood. On the other<br />
h<strong>and</strong>, your relationship possesses a forceful<br />
drive with the possibility of accomplishing<br />
great things. You two will never want for lack<br />
of excitement, <strong>and</strong> with each other you find<br />
inspiration to take risks you would not take on<br />
your own. It benefits you to learn to temper<br />
your strong physical drive together with<br />
calmness <strong>and</strong> discretion, <strong>and</strong> to develop<br />
creative outlets that make good use of your<br />
joint fire.<br />
Composite Sun in quintile<br />
(within 2.7 degrees) with<br />
Saturn<br />
The planetary energies are positively linked,<br />
subtle, <strong>and</strong> spiritual in dimension.<br />
This aspect brings a deepening <strong>and</strong><br />
concentration to the very essence of your<br />
relationship. Though things may start slowly<br />
<strong>and</strong> build gradually, this relationship will tend<br />
to provide you both with a strong sense of<br />
stability over time. Together, you two can be<br />
strong-willed <strong>and</strong> determined, <strong>and</strong> may have<br />
a tendency to appear cautious <strong>and</strong> reserved<br />
to each other, or to those outside your<br />
relationship looking in. As the relationship<br />
matures, it tends to acquire a firm basis <strong>and</strong><br />
together, you accomplish your goals in a<br />
careful <strong>and</strong> industrious way. It benefits you to<br />
bring a sense of lightness <strong>and</strong> play forward<br />
when you are together to balance the<br />
inherent seriousness of your connection.<br />
Deepen <strong>and</strong> broaden the knowledge of what<br />
this relationship is really about at the level of<br />
its innermost soul, <strong>and</strong> learn to love what you<br />
find in this process.<br />

RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
With this aspect between composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
Neptune, your relationship has vision <strong>and</strong><br />
creativity, with a high degree of sensitivity<br />
between you. You will find that your<br />
connection has an unworldly, ethereal side.<br />
You two tend to be spiritually aligned with<br />
similar dreams about how you want to live<br />
your life. Your connection may have a strong<br />
psychic, or nonverbal quality to it, <strong>and</strong> you are<br />
likely to share a deep passion for art, healing<br />
<strong>and</strong> the mystery. You two bring out a<br />
softhearted quality in each other, <strong>and</strong> you<br />
may have to be careful that you don't sacrifice<br />
too much of yourselves in helping others.<br />
Your relationship thrives in its subtle body,<br />
but you may begin to suffer if you expect it to<br />
bear fruit in the material plane. You may have<br />
difficulties with your motivation when<br />
together. There could be issues of idealism or<br />
fantasy, perhaps even outright deception<br />
that you will mutually work through in the<br />
course of this partnership. In a romantic<br />
relationship, you are likely to share an interest<br />
in art or music. When you do find expression<br />
for the mystical force you share between you,<br />
tremendous creativity is possible, perhaps<br />
manifested through artistic channels: music,<br />
drama, or poetry.<br />
Composite Sun in square<br />
(within 4.5 degrees) with<br />
Midheaven<br />
The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />
creative tensions bring rich rewards through<br />
effort over time.<br />
With this aspect between composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
the Midheaven, your relationship has a<br />
concentrated focus on intention <strong>and</strong> a<br />
powerful achievement orientation. In a<br />
romantic relationship, an active orientation to<br />
joint projects that you wish to undertake. You<br />
may however differ over the goals of the<br />
partnership, <strong>and</strong> must have the ability to<br />
compromise <strong>and</strong> to provide support each<br />
other in your individual career objectives. A<br />
drawback is that your relationship may be<br />
more susceptible to matters of prestige <strong>and</strong><br />
other outside influence than you would like.<br />
As a partnership you are liable to become very<br />
involved with career <strong>and</strong> outer world affairs,<br />
perhaps to the detriment of more private <strong>and</strong><br />
domestic issues. You may not always reach an<br />
agreement on where the relationship is<br />
headed, but you are also quite determined in<br />
promoting your joint agenda once you arrive<br />
at it. You benefit when you strive for the<br />
bigger picture in advancing the cause of social<br />
as well as personal goals.<br />

The planetary energies conflict in determined<br />
subtle tension; control is required.<br />
This aspect between composite Moon <strong>and</strong><br />
Mercury brings a verbally expressive <strong>and</strong><br />
creative quality to your relationship, <strong>and</strong> also<br />
may indicate that the thinking <strong>and</strong> feeling<br />
functions between you have a tendency to
12<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
clash at times. You two have a gift for<br />
expression, both with each other <strong>and</strong> as a<br />
partnership in your dealings with the larger<br />
world. Your powerful thinking <strong>and</strong> fertile<br />
imagination lend a witty <strong>and</strong> entertaining<br />
twist to your joint expression, <strong>and</strong> you share a<br />
knack for putting your ideas into words. There<br />
is a creative tension to the verbal <strong>and</strong><br />
emotional realities of your relationship that<br />
can be a force for powerful expression, as<br />
long as you can find necessary common<br />
ground in your shared desire for love,<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> acceptance between you.<br />
The key here is to stay on top of difficulties<br />
each time they arise, <strong>and</strong> to be careful to take<br />
responsibility for your own issues.<br />
Composite Moon in square<br />

Venus<br />
Ruler of rising sign<br />
The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />
creative tensions bring rich rewards through<br />
effort over time.<br />
This aspect between composite Moon <strong>and</strong><br />
Venus brings a loving, calm <strong>and</strong> steady<br />
presence to your relationship, although there<br />
can be a difficult edge from time to time.<br />
Together, you emanate social charm <strong>and</strong><br />
attractiveness, <strong>and</strong> your loving disposition<br />
brings grace to any room you inhabit. Though<br />
you two tend to treat each other with<br />
kindness, you may sometimes find that<br />
underneath it, an irritating grain of s<strong>and</strong> has<br />
gotten inside your shell. Simple things<br />
between you two can somehow get complex.<br />
You may find you are reluctant to talk about<br />
this irritation that you feel, for fear of<br />
complicating things further still. You benefit<br />
when you have patience with your partner's<br />
needs <strong>and</strong> desires. If you can hold the tension,<br />
<strong>and</strong> stay true to your focus, you may find that<br />
an enduring love transforms this grain of s<strong>and</strong><br />
into a beautiful pearl. The trick here is to walk<br />
into your shared encounters knowing exactly<br />
what you want to get out of them, <strong>and</strong> stay<br />
focused. Paradoxically, the difference that<br />
remains between you regarding what you<br />
want to get out of any given situation can also<br />
be a powerful force of attraction <strong>and</strong> may pull<br />
you together. The same holds true for your<br />
shared relationship to money.<br />
Composite Moon in<br />
sesquiquadrate<br />
(within 0.3 degrees) with Mars<br />
The planetary energies conflict in determined<br />
subtle tension; control is required.<br />
This aspect between composite Moon <strong>and</strong><br />
Mars brings a powerful emotional <strong>and</strong><br />
potentially argumentative presence to your<br />
connection with each other. Emotional<br />
conditions easily influence you. Together you<br />
tend to experience a sometimes difficult <strong>and</strong><br />
at other times harmonious give <strong>and</strong> take,<br />
meeting each other in profound <strong>and</strong><br />
penetrating ways. You may find yourselves<br />
saying things before you think them through<br />
<strong>and</strong> it is best to remember to exercise a<br />
modicum of control over emotional
13<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
outbursts. It's never a good idea to<br />
completely hold back your feelings however,<br />
since they will eventually find an outlet with<br />
even greater intensity. In this relationship, it<br />
bodes well to cultivate a regular practice of<br />
forgiveness so you can easily move through<br />
impulsive disagreement, <strong>and</strong> to attempt to<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> what's underneath your behavior<br />
<strong>and</strong> find creative ways to move it. At its best,<br />
this relationship generates an original, active<br />
<strong>and</strong> brilliant mentality.<br />
Composite Moon in semisextile<br />
(within 1.1 degrees) with<br />
Jupiter<br />
The planetary energies attract each other,<br />
require effort, allow entry of new information.<br />
This aspect between composite Moon <strong>and</strong><br />
Jupiter gives your relationship an optimistic<br />
<strong>and</strong> emotionally nurturing quality. You tend<br />
to see the best in each other <strong>and</strong> in the ideas<br />
your share, serving as both cheerleaders for<br />
each other's process <strong>and</strong> teammates working<br />
toward a shared goal. On the other h<strong>and</strong>,<br />
Jupiter's enthusiasm could have you two<br />
signing up for things before you have blinked<br />
twice, <strong>and</strong> before you have had time to<br />
carefully think through the consequences of<br />
your decisions. It benefits this relationship to<br />
take everything more slowly than your kneejerk<br />
reaction would dictate, commit carefully,<br />
<strong>and</strong> then fall back on all your good vibes with<br />
each other when things get bogged down<br />
with the inevitable snags that come along<br />
with day-to-day reality.<br />
Composite Moon in<br />
opposition<br />
(within 8.7 degrees) with<br />
Uranus<br />
The planetary energies are polarized; outer<br />
events stimulate their interaction; integration<br />
is the challenge.<br />
With this aspect between composite Moon<br />
<strong>and</strong> Uranus, your relationship has an eccentric<br />
<strong>and</strong> unique home base. Your connection is<br />
likely to be an unusual one, with a strong<br />
intuitive link between you. Things are never<br />
dull, although the resulting emotional<br />
instability can represent a challenge if one of<br />
you attempts to stay within the bounds of a<br />
more conservative approach. You two are<br />
likely to have changeable emotions, <strong>and</strong> may<br />
develop a reputation for being unpredictable.<br />
In a business partnership, you may have come<br />
together around the concept of new ways of<br />
living. Novelty excites you both. In a romantic<br />
connection, you are likely to be extremely<br />
honest with each other, <strong>and</strong> this is a high<br />
virtue, although you may find that it gets a<br />
little abrasive from time to time. You don't do<br />
well with anything resembling boredom. You<br />
may change your residence frequently, or be<br />
always starting new projects <strong>and</strong> adventures.<br />
Your relationship can give rise to feelings of<br />
insecurity at times, possibly because it will<br />
evoke memories of disruption from your early<br />
home lives. You two are likely to undergo
14<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
fundamental transformations of identity<br />
during the life of this relationship, <strong>and</strong> you<br />
will grow from the expression of these<br />
impulses. You may find that you need to take<br />
space emotionally from each other at times.<br />
This relationship may bring out an<br />
individualistic streak so strong in each of you,<br />
you may have difficulties in settling down into<br />
the relationship at all. You benefit when you<br />
learn to balance your joint need for security<br />
with your individual urges for freedom <strong>and</strong><br />
experimentation.<br />
Composite Moon in inconjunct<br />
(within 5.1 degrees) with<br />
Midheaven<br />
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly,<br />
one or the other predominates; discrimination<br />
must be employed.<br />
With this aspect between composite Moon<br />
<strong>and</strong> the Midheaven, your relationship has a<br />
strong emotional basis with issues around the<br />
idea of a domestic or parenting focus. You are<br />
likely to have a strong emotional affect on<br />
each other, in friendship or a romantic<br />
connection. If the latter, you may have a<br />
shared vision of living together <strong>and</strong> starting a<br />
family, or there may be potential<br />
disagreements in this area. The Moon here<br />
indicates that the mothering <strong>and</strong> feminine<br />
side of each of you is a strong part of your<br />
relationship equation <strong>and</strong> that you have<br />
commonly held goals there. The sexual<br />
chemistry between you may not sizzle, but<br />
your union definitely percolates through your<br />
lives in many ways to enrich you both. This<br />
makes for a relationship with a nurturing<br />
attitude. You will be prone to take care of<br />
each other through the course of time, <strong>and</strong> of<br />
others around you that you connect with as a<br />
partnership. You may work together to<br />
develop a vehicle for your caring <strong>and</strong> socially<br />
oriented values such as a plan to feed large<br />
groups of people. In any case you will be<br />
supportive of such values as may be in the<br />
process of emerging on the world scene.<br />
The ruler of your Sun Sign is<br />
Composite Pluto in Scorpio<br />
(16° Sco 02')<br />
The ruler of your Sun sign is characteristic of<br />
your personality:<br />
Pluto in the composite chart reveals the area<br />
of your shared experience where you will<br />
encounter your mutual drive for power <strong>and</strong><br />
which will be transformative for the<br />
relationship.<br />
Pluto in the Seventh House (or sign) gives<br />
your relationship an intense focus on<br />
satisfying your individual needs <strong>and</strong> desires<br />
by pairing up with each other. There may be<br />
an almost fated sense of connection between<br />
you; that you have come together for some<br />
powerful reason. In this relationship, you have<br />
a calling to learn all about the nature of your<br />
partner's needs <strong>and</strong> expectations, <strong>and</strong> there<br />
may also be power issues to contend with as<br />
one or the other unconsciously tries to<br />
dominate. As you sort things out with each<br />
other, you will transform yourselves around<br />
the issues of balance <strong>and</strong> control. In a
15<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
romantic relationship, this transformation<br />
toward balance may at first manifest as an<br />
unconscious acting out of traditional roles. As<br />
you begin to resist playing out old patterns<br />
with your partner, a powerful love/hate<br />
response may arise in either one of you.<br />
Getting to the point where your will becomes<br />
harmonized with your partner takes time, but<br />
eventually the two of you will develop the<br />
ability to at least partially begin to "act as<br />
one," as power struggles give way to shared<br />
love <strong>and</strong> mutual respect. Gaining the courage<br />
to begin to confront these patterns becomes<br />
the challenge. You benefit when you allow<br />
time for shared reflection when your needs<br />
are not being met. A great deal of selfknowledge<br />
will be generated through your<br />
discussions around the issues of power<br />
sharing versus unilateral control once you can<br />
learn to really hear each other.<br />
Composite Pluto in Scorpio (or the eighth<br />
house) gives a relationship with a focus on<br />
powerful emotions that arise between you,<br />
<strong>and</strong> on behaviors of dominance <strong>and</strong> selfreliance.<br />
You may have strong desires in the<br />
context of this relationship <strong>and</strong> find that you<br />
are single-minded about pursuing them. You<br />
seem to feel more deeply when you are<br />
together, <strong>and</strong> you may have an almost psychic<br />
awareness of each other's energy. In a<br />
romantic involvement, boundary related<br />
issues are likely to come up between you,<br />
reflected in passionate sexuality, deep <strong>and</strong><br />
powerful feelings of intimacy <strong>and</strong> questioning<br />
where one stops <strong>and</strong> the other begins. You<br />
may also exhibit compulsive behavior around<br />
sex <strong>and</strong> emotional closeness, or be forced to<br />
contend with a habit of insisting to get your<br />
own way. All these issues will likely become<br />
transformed in the course of your shared life<br />
together. This relationship's very survival may<br />
depend on how deeply you are each are able<br />
to concentrate your attention on personal<br />
transformation as a result of working through<br />
your issues with each other. As a partnership,<br />
you may also exhibit a tendency to<br />
manipulate others for your own purposes. In<br />
order to grow, both of you need to turn away<br />
from manipulating others <strong>and</strong> use your power<br />
to regenerate your own lives. You win when<br />
you learn to empower each other <strong>and</strong> enable<br />
each other's self-reliance, <strong>and</strong> when you<br />
realize that you have come together for<br />
purposes of healing.<br />
The ruler of your Rising Sign is<br />
Composite Venus in Virgo (22°<br />
Vir 15')<br />
The ruler of the rising sign is characteristic of<br />
your outer persona:<br />
The placement of Venus in the composite chart<br />
reveals the area of your shared emotional<br />
focus <strong>and</strong> love <strong>and</strong> where mutual enjoyment<br />
<strong>and</strong> benefit lies.<br />
Venus in the Fifth House (or sign) indicates<br />
that there is a solid basis of affection in your<br />
relationship, <strong>and</strong> excellent support for<br />
creativity between<br />
you. This placement<br />
indicates good will <strong>and</strong> fun times together.<br />
You are also likely to be extremely creative as
16<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
a pairing. Artistic productions come naturally<br />
to you. In a romantic relationship, there is<br />
plenty of sizzle, plus an abiding feeling of joy<br />
<strong>and</strong> laughter. You relate to each other with a<br />
child-like joie de vivre that can go a long way<br />
toward making up for any distresses that you<br />
may face as a couple. You may be interested<br />
in having children together; certainly they are<br />
a great source of pleasure for the two of you.<br />
You admire each other for your creative bent,<br />
which this relationship may bring out in larger<br />
measure than when you operate individually.<br />
As a partnership, you may find that you need<br />
to get more serious occasionally, since things<br />
seem to come your way almost too easily.<br />
Together you have a solid basis of self-worth<br />
<strong>and</strong> may only need to ensure that you don't<br />
take the relationship too much for granted.<br />
Composite Venus in Virgo (or the sixth house)<br />
indicates a relationship where concepts of<br />
service are highly valued between you. This<br />
partnership thrives on the simple day-to-day<br />
process of life <strong>and</strong> living, where each of you is<br />
likely to be of help <strong>and</strong> to support the other<br />
partner. You are each well aware of the<br />
nature of your partner's ability to serve, <strong>and</strong><br />
you may mutually desire to be of help in the<br />
world, organizing for <strong>and</strong> caring for others<br />
that you have dealings with. In a romantic<br />
relationship, this can be a difficult placement,<br />
especially if your interest in helping each<br />
other may be construed as servitude rather<br />
than freely given. It may feel like one of you is<br />
more selflessly motivated than the other.<br />
Although this behavior is likely to represent a<br />
powerful appeal to the other partner, there<br />
could be problems that you encounter along<br />
the way if you do not talk things out with each<br />
other <strong>and</strong> get clear regarding your<br />
expectations. If there are other ways that you<br />
connect, then this service orientation can be a<br />
great blessing, but in <strong>and</strong> of itself it may seem<br />
more like work than play, <strong>and</strong> play is very<br />
important in love relationships. As a<br />
partnership, you may possess a strong shared<br />
commitment to work for a cause that you<br />
espouse. Together you have a bent toward<br />
organization <strong>and</strong> refinement of your mutually<br />
held skills <strong>and</strong> an inherent interest in the<br />
health <strong>and</strong> perfection of the physical body.<br />

potential. There are great rewards to be<br />
gained as you begin to work things out with<br />
each other <strong>and</strong> more fully engage your own<br />
inherent strengths <strong>and</strong> weaknesses in<br />
marriage <strong>and</strong> partnership concerns. You may<br />
have had early childhood experiences that<br />
made it hard to accept the love of others in<br />
your adult life, so that you are drawn to<br />
relationship at the same time that you fear it,<br />
with a strong focus on forming close
17<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
emotional attachments. <strong>Relationship</strong> is the<br />
caldron where your true self may begin to<br />
emerge. By becoming more conscious<br />
regarding your reactivity with each other, you<br />
may start to connect with your own childhood<br />
wounds, acknowledging painful events from<br />
the past. Once you have begun to integrate<br />
any painful feelings you may hold inside<br />
yourself, <strong>and</strong> start to shed the baggage of<br />
earlier frustrations, you can be a more fully<br />
participating partner, <strong>and</strong> be more available<br />
to others in your life as well.<br />
Composite Venus in sextile<br />
(within 2.8 degrees) with<br />
Jupiter<br />
The planetary energies flow together, open<br />
into new possibilities, new connections.<br />
This aspect between composite Venus <strong>and</strong><br />
Jupiter indicates a relationship with a warm<br />
feeling of affection between you <strong>and</strong> brings<br />
joy to your dealings with each other. There is<br />
a refined <strong>and</strong> idealistic nature to your<br />
relationship. You are likely to share a great<br />
love of art, beauty, <strong>and</strong> culture. You naturally<br />
support each other's health <strong>and</strong> well being<br />
<strong>and</strong> this connection tends to benefit each of<br />
you <strong>and</strong> your individual lives. In a romantic<br />
connection, you two tend to see life as a<br />
joyous game <strong>and</strong> play it well. Together, you<br />
generate both abundance <strong>and</strong> generosity.<br />
You two tend to be incredibly optimistic, <strong>and</strong><br />
see opportunity in everything. Whatever you<br />
set your sights on growing, chances are, it will<br />
flourish. It benefits you to stay focused <strong>and</strong> in<br />
touch with what you really want. Your<br />
relationship may also bring out a cheerful<br />
restlessness in both of you that spurs you on<br />
change <strong>and</strong> adventure.<br />

Composite Mercury in Scorpio<br />
(11° Sco 24')<br />
Composite Mercury in the<br />
Seventh House<br />
Mercury in the composite chart reveals the<br />
quality of the communication process in your<br />
relationship, <strong>and</strong> an area of your shared<br />
experience where intellectual compatibility is<br />
to be found.<br />
The composite Mercury in the Seventh House<br />
indicates a relationship with good<br />
communication. You naturally gravitate in<br />
discussion to where the relationship is going,<br />
<strong>and</strong> how to get there, <strong>and</strong> remain for the most<br />
part in total agreement on ways <strong>and</strong> means.<br />
This is obviously a great placement for any<br />
kind of partnership, <strong>and</strong> especially good for a<br />
marriage or romantic pairing. You will run into<br />
few misunderst<strong>and</strong>ings regarding priorities.<br />
While you do not necessarily think alike, your<br />
ability to tell your side of the story to each<br />
other makes for a harmonious blending of<br />
opinion, since you not only underst<strong>and</strong> each<br />
other but also have the mutual desire to be as<br />
one mind as far as any decisions that affect<br />
your partnership are concerned. As a team<br />
you are likely to be friendly <strong>and</strong> social with<br />
other people, preferring open discussion to
18<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
keeping your own council. This is not a<br />
secretive placement <strong>and</strong> you might want to<br />
remind yourselves of that if the need for<br />
confidentiality ever arises. As a partnership<br />
you make a good public relations or teaching<br />
team <strong>and</strong> have the verbal <strong>and</strong> written tools at<br />
your disposal to influence the opinion of<br />
others around you.<br />
Composite Mercury in Scorpio gives a very<br />
intensely careful <strong>and</strong> controlled quality to the<br />
communication in your relationship. You tend<br />
to make joint plans slowly, <strong>and</strong> stick to them<br />
resolutely. Your shared mental <strong>and</strong><br />
observational powers are strong <strong>and</strong> your<br />
thoughts as a partnership run deep. You two<br />
tend to desire to connect with each other in a<br />
profound way. You may not immediately<br />
express your ideas; instead choosing to get<br />
your point across nonverbally, or when you<br />
decide that the time is right. You may also<br />
have a tendency to make judgments about<br />
each other <strong>and</strong> those around you. It benefits<br />
your relationship if you each make a practice<br />
of acceptance <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of each<br />
other. This bodes well for the two of you as<br />
long as you live from what is alive in you <strong>and</strong><br />
not from fear or defensiveness. Your joint will<br />
is strong, <strong>and</strong> you have a passion for<br />
discovering the truth behind surface<br />
appearances. You tend to penetrate the<br />
depths of any subject. When you are as<br />
compassionate as you are penetrating, the<br />
relationship <strong>and</strong> all it touches can't help but<br />
truly benefit from these powers of 'psychic<br />
surgery.'<br />
Composite Saturn in Capricorn<br />
(15° Cap 05')<br />
Composite Saturn in the Ninth<br />
House<br />
Saturn in the composite chart reveals the area<br />
of your shared experience where you will<br />
encounter limitations <strong>and</strong> build long-lasting<br />
success through trials of accomplishment.<br />
Saturn in the Ninth House (or sign) indicates<br />
that there is a higher-mind orientation to your<br />
relationship, with a blockage or a focused<br />
concentration in the area of exp<strong>and</strong>ing into<br />
new horizons. This placement may bring out a<br />
more conservative <strong>and</strong> conventional streak<br />
within the relationship than either of you<br />
experience alone, <strong>and</strong> can also contribute to a<br />
heightened social awareness between you.<br />
Although you may feel stuck on occasion in<br />
coming to a commonly held belief system, you<br />
are motivated to spend time <strong>and</strong> energy in<br />
the pursuit of just this goal, <strong>and</strong> over time this<br />
area may become a powerful bond between<br />
you. Traveling together <strong>and</strong> educational<br />
initiatives are also important motifs where<br />
you will likely struggle, <strong>and</strong> where you will<br />
eventually find a long-lasting shared basis for<br />
sticking it out with each other. In a romantic<br />
relationship, your joint goals tend to be<br />
mental <strong>and</strong> spiritual, rather than material.<br />
You may need to be courageous in expressing<br />
your opinions with each other, since you don't<br />
always see things the same way. As a<br />
partnership, you are geared toward searching<br />
for a new framework of shared moral or<br />
spiritual values, rather than choosing to adopt
19<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
existing outworn belief systems. One of the<br />
main lessons of this relationship may be to<br />
eventually come to the realization that the<br />
true source of moral <strong>and</strong> ethical valuation lies<br />
within each of you.<br />
Composite Saturn in Capricorn (or the tenth<br />
house) brings out an ambitious <strong>and</strong> clearminded<br />
quality in your relationship, with a<br />
strong sense of shared responsibility. Saturn<br />
finds its most natural placement here, <strong>and</strong><br />
together you tend to be especially persistent,<br />
careful <strong>and</strong> calculating, with a strong capacity<br />
for mastery <strong>and</strong> achievement. In a romantic<br />
relationship, you may be so achievement<br />
oriented that there is a danger of missing out<br />
on the more personal goal of simply relating<br />
to each other, perhaps because you are<br />
working through subconscious fears that if<br />
you don't conquer the world first, then it will<br />
conquer you instead. The trick is to balance<br />
your mutual need for achievement with just<br />
being, with no need for anything beyond the<br />
sharing of yourselves with each other. As a<br />
partnership you tend to be cautious <strong>and</strong><br />
rarely take chances. You may have difficulties,<br />
limitations or delays in the achievement of<br />
your joint goals, but your careful approach<br />
usually leads to success in the end. When your<br />
relationship is at its best, it can help you move<br />
from a personal drive for power in the world<br />
into an enlightened process of acting for the<br />
betterment of society itself.<br />
Composite Neptune in<br />
Capricorn (11° Cap 32')<br />
Composite Neptune in the<br />
Ninth House<br />
Neptune in the composite chart reveals the<br />
area of your shared experience where you will<br />
encounter idealization <strong>and</strong> nebulous spiritual<br />
feelings that will lead you to self-discovery.<br />
Neptune in the Ninth House (or sign) brings an<br />
impressionable, idealistic <strong>and</strong> highly intuitive<br />
quality to your relationship. As a partnership,<br />
you two are likely to be inclined to the<br />
mystical, <strong>and</strong> high minded, perhaps seeing life<br />
in terms of the poetic rather than the<br />
practical. You have a natural bent for<br />
philosophical discourse or perhaps teaching<br />
together, but you may need to guard against<br />
over-idealization. You are likely to share a<br />
belief in the unknown, <strong>and</strong> to have a great<br />
desire to explore, travel <strong>and</strong> experiment with<br />
new ways of doing things. In close<br />
interpersonal relationship, you can always<br />
enjoy the extra romantic edge that comes<br />
along with your shared adventuring. Together<br />
you may have an urge to get away from it all<br />
on a regular basis, <strong>and</strong> may be attracted to<br />
spiritual studies, or psychedelics <strong>and</strong> the like<br />
to achieve transcendent states. You benefit<br />
when you are careful not to get too carried<br />
away with your ideas, <strong>and</strong> when you find ways<br />
to ground your flights of fancy into concrete<br />
realities.<br />
Composite Neptune in Capricorn (or the tenth<br />
house) brings an idealistic nature to the way<br />
that you jointly interact with the world. You<br />
may achieve much together in helping others.
20<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
On the other h<strong>and</strong>, you may also experience<br />
some degree of confusion regarding this<br />
relationship or your role within it. You benefit<br />
when you make an extra effort to underst<strong>and</strong><br />
what you are trying to accomplish together<br />
<strong>and</strong> stay on top of your responsibilities to<br />
each other <strong>and</strong> with the world around you. In<br />
a romantic context, this relationship has some<br />
very high ideals, <strong>and</strong> perhaps illusions,<br />
associated with your joint interaction. You<br />
each have an idealistic streak that carries over<br />
into the way you see yourselves in<br />
relationship with each other, while others<br />
may not be able to underst<strong>and</strong> what's going<br />
in your relationship at all. You may find that it<br />
helps to clarify your mutual goals <strong>and</strong> to stay<br />
open to the idea you to have come together<br />
to respond to a joint calling. On the positive<br />
side, you have the potential within your<br />
relationship to express the highest ideals of<br />
society. You may collaborate at a professional<br />
level on spiritual or healing modalities. At any<br />
rate, you enjoy giving more than receiving<br />
when it comes to shared service or mutual<br />
employment.<br />
Composite Chiron in Cancer<br />
(22° Can 44')<br />
Composite Chiron in the Third<br />
House<br />
Chiron in the composite chart reveals the area<br />
of your shared experience where you will<br />
encounter patterns of wounds <strong>and</strong> deep<br />
connection <strong>and</strong> where eventual healing <strong>and</strong><br />
empathy will occur.<br />
Chiron in the Third House (or sign) indicates a<br />
relationship that provides an opportunity for<br />
you both to face <strong>and</strong> heal deeply held wounds<br />
regarding the development of the intellect<br />
<strong>and</strong> the communication of one's ideas with<br />
others. With this placement you may both feel<br />
an almost compulsive curiosity regarding<br />
other people. You are likely to share a strong<br />
desire to communicate <strong>and</strong> to explore your<br />
world intellectually, but you may feel a barrier<br />
that separates you from each other <strong>and</strong> those<br />
around you at the same time. These feelings<br />
of being blocked in your ability to<br />
communicate can even manifest physically in<br />
the form of a very obvious breakdown in your<br />
communication. Though these problems may<br />
seem almost physical, the physical <strong>and</strong> the<br />
mental are so intimately related it can be hard<br />
to say. If there is a psychological reason<br />
behind difficulties in your communication, it is<br />
likely to be found in your childhood<br />
relationships, when it was quite important to<br />
communicate with your peers. Perhaps there<br />
was some group that you felt cut off from in<br />
the casual cruelty of that era, or perhaps you<br />
felt that you were not fully accepted by<br />
important siblings. In your efforts to gain<br />
acceptance <strong>and</strong> to get through to each other<br />
<strong>and</strong> those around you, you may<br />
overcompensate by being competitive or by<br />
desiring recognition for the extent of your<br />
knowledge. Whatever the nature of the<br />
childhood trauma that continues to give you<br />
difficulties in this adult relationship, it is<br />
important to try to underst<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> relate
21<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
well to your earlier selves first. If you can learn<br />
to love <strong>and</strong> accept who you were then, as well<br />
as who you are today, you will come a long<br />
way toward full participation in your<br />
communication with others. In your quest for<br />
wholeness it is quite possible that together,<br />
you two will be drawn to helping others to<br />
communicate better as well.<br />
Composite Chiron in Cancer (or the Fourth<br />
House) indicates a relationship that provides<br />
an opportunity to face <strong>and</strong> heal deeply held<br />
wounds with your vital force regarding selfnurturing<br />
<strong>and</strong> taking care of those closest to<br />
the relationship. In this relationship, you may<br />
find that you two share a strong drive or even<br />
a compulsion to center yourselves in home<br />
<strong>and</strong> family, a drive that does not easily find its<br />
fulfillment. There may have been painful<br />
episodes in connection with early family life.<br />
Perhaps you had trouble settling down to<br />
enjoy the comfort that a safe <strong>and</strong> secure<br />
home brings to children. As a result, you two<br />
may be even more motivated to create this<br />
firm base of security in your adult relationship<br />
than others for whom it is second nature. You<br />
may alternate between overidentifying with<br />
your family <strong>and</strong> under-identifying with them,<br />
or you may find yourselves constantly<br />
thwarted in finding this important level of<br />
security as the relationship unfolds. On a<br />
more symbolic level, you may each be<br />
painfully challenged finding your own<br />
psychological center. This lack can keep your<br />
relationship off balance, <strong>and</strong> you may find<br />
that your emotions move in many different<br />
directions, as the wind blows. You may long<br />
for a more secure <strong>and</strong> comfortable sense of<br />
who you each are, independent of others'<br />
opinions, <strong>and</strong> long for a psychological place<br />
where you can truly be yourselves. The<br />
conflict that arises around these issues may<br />
be largely unconscious in nature, based on<br />
long-buried experiences too painful to<br />
recollect <strong>and</strong> consciously examine. One or<br />
both of you may be working through early<br />
conflicts with your mother, or other primary<br />
parental figures. Once you begin to help each<br />
other, to nourish yourselves <strong>and</strong> to provide<br />
your own parenting, rather than depending<br />
on the external world to provide comfort <strong>and</strong><br />
security, your relationship can become a<br />
source of inspiration for others as well as<br />
yourselves.<br />
Composite N Node in Aquarius<br />
(12° Aqu 02')<br />
Composite N Node in the<br />
Tenth House<br />
Lunar North Node in the Tenth House (or<br />
sign). South Node in the fourth house or sign.<br />
This placement in a composite chart signifies<br />
that within this relationship you will<br />
emphasize recognized achievement. Perhaps<br />
you will form a business together, or it may be<br />
simply that you are good at cheering each<br />
other on in your respective careers. Although<br />
you are comfortable in your private home life,<br />
which is what comes naturally to each of you,<br />
you are determined, as you mature <strong>and</strong> as the<br />
relationship develops, to move beyond the
22<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
personal <strong>and</strong> secure enclosure of your home<br />
<strong>and</strong> family <strong>and</strong> out into the public sphere.<br />
Something is calling to you to come forth <strong>and</strong><br />
shine your light so that the world can see it.<br />
Your search for public recognition is not<br />
however a goal in <strong>and</strong> of itself, but connects<br />
you into a larger picture of social commitment<br />
<strong>and</strong> service to the collective ideal that<br />
reinforces your sense of self as a part of the<br />
greater whole, an important cog in the<br />
turning wheel of world events. Thus together<br />
you come full circle to a self-concept that<br />
includes its own sense of security in beneficial<br />
interaction with the social matrix that<br />
surrounds you.<br />
Composite Lunar North Node in Aquarius (or<br />
the eleventh house). South Node in the fifth<br />
house or sign. This placement in a composite<br />
chart signifies that within this relationship<br />
you each have an emphasis on friendships,<br />
group associations <strong>and</strong> social goals. Although<br />
creativity on a personal level comes easily to<br />
you, <strong>and</strong> creating by means of including other<br />
people is perhaps more difficult, it is to this<br />
more difficult task that you are drawn in the<br />
context of this relationship. In the past, you<br />
may have felt a great deal of pride in your<br />
individuality <strong>and</strong> individual contribution. You<br />
may even have struggled with a form of ego<br />
attachment to the products of your personal<br />
energy. Now together you find yourself<br />
envisioning possibilities far larger than just<br />
for yourselves <strong>and</strong> your immediate<br />
surroundings, so that the betterment of all of<br />
humanity becomes your focus. How can you<br />
fit into society around you in a way that<br />
benefits both the collective <strong>and</strong> your own<br />
values, moving forward? As the relationship<br />
between you develops you may find that you<br />
are ever more future-oriented <strong>and</strong> socially<br />
responsible, for in this way you find your true<br />
fulfillment as a partnership.<br />
Other Aspects<br />
Composite Mercury in strong<br />
square<br />
(within 0.5 degrees) with Mars<br />
The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />
creative tensions bring rich rewards through<br />
effort over time.<br />
This aspect between composite Mercury <strong>and</strong><br />
Mars greatly increases your shared mental<br />
energies, <strong>and</strong> gives the relationship an<br />
intelligent <strong>and</strong> ambitious edge. You may want<br />
to watch out for a tendency to jump to<br />
conclusions. Together, you can be<br />
opinionated, even argumentative, or share a<br />
tendency toward nervous overreaction. You<br />
are apt to be rash in speech with each other,<br />
even argumentative, exhibiting a strong drive<br />
to succeed. You work well together when you<br />
take this directive energy <strong>and</strong> channel it out<br />
into the world rather than into infighting over<br />
trifles. You share a sharp tongue <strong>and</strong> a ready<br />
wit, <strong>and</strong> it benefits you to focus on creative<br />
<strong>and</strong> humorous expression rather than on<br />
finding fault with each other or being<br />
unnecessarily outspoken. As a partnership
23<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
you are determined <strong>and</strong> intelligent, <strong>and</strong> this<br />
combination of qualities allows your<br />
communication to take you far in life,<br />
especially if you develop receptivity <strong>and</strong> learn<br />
to value the opinions of others.<br />
Composite Mercury in strong<br />
sextile<br />
(within 0.1 degrees) with<br />
Neptune<br />
The planetary energies flow together, open<br />
into new possibilities, new connections.<br />
This aspect between composite Mercury <strong>and</strong><br />
Neptune indicates a clever <strong>and</strong> imaginative<br />
relationship that exudes a subtle charm. You<br />
tend to communicate with each other in<br />
visionary <strong>and</strong> poetic ways, <strong>and</strong> together you<br />
can express the normally inexpressible. Your<br />
conversations are likely to be inspired, with a<br />
deep appreciation of the arts, the imagination<br />
<strong>and</strong> the mystery, although there is also at<br />
least the potential for deceptive illusion<br />
between you. In a romantic relationship the<br />
danger is also that with such a strong<br />
connection between your conscious <strong>and</strong><br />
unconscious minds, your shared sensitivity<br />
runs so high that engaging in other activities,<br />
even sexuality, can feel like coming down. You<br />
also might need to take care to more clearly<br />
discriminate between fantasy <strong>and</strong> reality, in<br />
order to avoid overly glamorizing each other<br />
or another focus of your shared idealizing.<br />
You can mutually profit from learning to<br />
clearly channel the truth that arises out of<br />
your joint thought process, being careful to<br />
discriminate the ideal <strong>and</strong> the sensible in dayto-day<br />
mundane issues. Then you can allow<br />
yourselves to reap the full benefit <strong>and</strong><br />
inspiration of this placement without<br />
suffering unnecessarily from bumping up<br />
against the reality of practical concerns.<br />
Composite Saturn in strong<br />
sextile<br />
(within 1.0 degrees) with Pluto<br />
The planetary energies flow together, open<br />
into new possibilities, new connections.<br />
This aspect between composite Saturn <strong>and</strong><br />
Pluto brings a degree of forcefulness to your<br />
partnership, with issues of authority, power<br />
<strong>and</strong> control that are capable of great<br />
transformation over time. With this<br />
placement, you two may tend to share an<br />
ambivalent attitude about power, leading you<br />
to demonstrate a rebellious attitude toward<br />
an established external authority or the<br />
authority of one or the other of you. Or your<br />
relationship may become an authority unto<br />
itself, <strong>and</strong> together you two can tackle, <strong>and</strong><br />
transform, just about anything that st<strong>and</strong>s in<br />
your way. You make an unstoppable business<br />
team <strong>and</strong> are likely to be charismatic leaders<br />
together. In personal relationships, you may<br />
have to work through turning this immense<br />
force onto each other. You benefit when you<br />
learn to re-evaluate your shared urge for<br />
power <strong>and</strong> control, <strong>and</strong> to come to a deeper<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing of <strong>and</strong> more conscious <strong>and</strong><br />
socially responsible use of your<br />
transformational powers.

Composite Mercury in sextile<br />
(within 3.7 degrees) with<br />
Saturn<br />
The planetary energies flow together, open<br />
into new possibilities, new connections.<br />
With this aspect between composite Mercury<br />
<strong>and</strong> Saturn, your relationship has a<br />
responsible, centered <strong>and</strong> hard-working<br />
ideation process that also might be<br />
experienced as a blockage of communication<br />
between you. You share a profound mental<br />
connection. As a partnership, you may find<br />
that your thinking naturally deepens <strong>and</strong><br />
concentrates when you are together. You<br />
have incredible perseverance in making your<br />
ideas known to each other <strong>and</strong> to the world<br />
around you, <strong>and</strong> could be just the team to<br />
take on an important writing project. You can<br />
be shrewd as business partners, capable of<br />
focusing your energies intently for long<br />
periods of time. In fact, this combination does<br />
well in scholarship or law, or any mental<br />
activity requiring effort. In a romantic<br />
context, you may feel a sense of isolation in<br />
the relationship from time to time. You don't<br />
waste words with each other, <strong>and</strong> tend to say<br />
what you mean <strong>and</strong> mean what you say. There<br />
is a very direct quality to your communication,<br />
<strong>and</strong> it makes for effective interacting, as long<br />
you don't remain so entirely terse with each<br />
other that you lose the thread of active<br />
sharing. The key here is to risk more. You<br />
benefit when you take chances <strong>and</strong> add flavor<br />
<strong>and</strong> color to your self-expression with each<br />
other, turning pessimism into faith <strong>and</strong> letting<br />
go of rigidity, <strong>and</strong> learning the joy of saying<br />
yes.<br />
Composite Mercury in<br />
conjunction<br />
(within 4.6 degrees) with Pluto<br />
The strongest blend of the energies<br />
represented by these two planets.<br />
This conjunction between composite Mercury<br />
<strong>and</strong> Pluto signifies a powerful intensity of<br />
communication <strong>and</strong> verbal thrust <strong>and</strong> parry<br />
between you. There is a sharp <strong>and</strong><br />
penetrating mindset in this relationship, <strong>and</strong><br />
sharp comments between you or outright<br />
attempts at mental manipulation are also<br />
possible. One purpose of your coming<br />
together might be that you hone your<br />
communication skills. As a partnership you are<br />
also likely to be quite interested in the occult,<br />
or other hidden <strong>and</strong> potentially taboo areas<br />
of thought. Together, you see the deeper<br />
aspects of any subject matter that you single<br />
out for study, <strong>and</strong> have the capacity to<br />
discourse forcefully about it. You two are<br />
perhaps grappling with finding a balance<br />
between the need for building thought<br />
structures <strong>and</strong> the urge to destroy them.<br />
While this give <strong>and</strong> take can provide hours of<br />
mental stimulation, if there is any fear of<br />
imbalance present between you, your verbal<br />
communication will be the battlefield where<br />
you play it out. You may want to watch the<br />
emotions that arise when you share with each<br />
other, <strong>and</strong> remember to maintain your heartconnection<br />
<strong>and</strong> your perspective. In a
25<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
romantic relationship you might need to<br />
consider that the mind is great for many<br />
things, but getting safe is not one of them.<br />
For this, you must drop into your emotional<br />
body. By honestly expressing your needs, you<br />
can transform fear into freedom. It helps to<br />
become aware of the nature of your fear. Is it<br />
a fear of loss? Of rejection? Or of engulfment,<br />
being trapped? When you discover <strong>and</strong><br />
communicate these feelings, you clear the<br />
field. Then you can resume your sophisticated<br />
mind play without destroying trust <strong>and</strong> safety<br />
in the process. When you use your powers of<br />
insight <strong>and</strong> expression responsibly, you<br />
become great sources of inspiration, building<br />
mental systems that serve not only your<br />
evolving relationship but the world beyond it<br />
as well.<br />
Composite Mars in semisextile<br />
(within 0.6 degrees) with<br />
Neptune<br />
The planetary energies attract each other,<br />
require effort, allow entry of new information.<br />
This aspect between composite Mars <strong>and</strong><br />
Neptune brings to your relationship a strong<br />
idealism <strong>and</strong> psychic sensitivity together with<br />
an inclination to mysticism <strong>and</strong> the arts. As a<br />
duo you are drawn to the subtle <strong>and</strong> the<br />
ethereal. You may also experience a degree of<br />
confusion, so that you struggle to find the<br />
balance between the practical <strong>and</strong> the ideal.<br />
In a romantic connection, there may be<br />
powerful ideals of attraction between you,<br />
<strong>and</strong> your action <strong>and</strong> goal orientation within<br />
the partnership may border at times on<br />
deception or illusion. You benefit from<br />
keeping your communication very clear in<br />
order to achieve greater conscious awareness<br />
of your inner motivation. As a partnership you<br />
benefit from clarifying your aims, <strong>and</strong><br />
learning to focus your intention in order to<br />
become a channel for its higher use in your<br />
own life <strong>and</strong> the life of society around you.<br />
Composite Mars in square<br />
(within 5.1 degrees) with Pluto<br />
The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />
creative tensions bring rich rewards through<br />
effort over time.<br />
With this aspect between composite Mars <strong>and</strong><br />
Pluto, your relationship has a passionate<br />
intensity <strong>and</strong> also the potential for explosive<br />
conflict. There is a powerful connection<br />
between you based around the concept of<br />
self-assertion, either yours or your partner's,<br />
<strong>and</strong> one reason that you have come together<br />
at this time is to attempt to heal this issue in<br />
your lives. This aspect also signals a<br />
tremendous drive for power <strong>and</strong><br />
transformation of self, forged in the<br />
combined energies of your partnership,<br />
although there may come a point at which you<br />
will be forced to decide if the gain is worth the<br />
pain in this situation. In a romantic<br />
connection, your sexual magnetism <strong>and</strong><br />
activity is likely to be strong, as well as issues<br />
of power <strong>and</strong> control that constantly crop up<br />
between you. The pattern of your relationship
26<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
may be such that one of you appears timid or<br />
unsure to the other partner much of the time,<br />
since the power urge when problematic<br />
commonly hides deep underground, but<br />
there is the potential for sudden bursts of<br />
anger when repressed emotion finally finds<br />
its way to the surface. One or both of you may<br />
compensate for feelings of insecurity by<br />
being forceful, compulsive or even obsessive<br />
about achieving their will, leading to<br />
confrontation. These issues will come up in<br />
the course of this relationship for the<br />
ultimate purpose of working them out <strong>and</strong><br />
eventual healing. It is of course quite helpful<br />
when you both stay as conscious as you can<br />
regarding the underlying dynamic of your<br />
reactions. Trying to change the other person<br />
will prove impossible in this relationship. No<br />
matter how much will you bring to bear, <strong>and</strong><br />
this relationship gives you plenty to work<br />
with, no amount of energy or endurance will<br />
help you achieve that particular aim. It<br />
profoundly benefits your relationship if you<br />
each can move away from blame or outbursts<br />
of resentment <strong>and</strong> rage, <strong>and</strong> instead tune into<br />
your inner process, or simply surrender to<br />
Spirit <strong>and</strong> the beyond. This simple act can<br />
make you feel a little more humble <strong>and</strong> a lot<br />
more whole.<br />

The strongest blend of the energies<br />
represented by these two planets.<br />
With this aspect in your composite chart you<br />
are likely to be engaged in a relationship that<br />
has a strong connection with it's own unique<br />
br<strong>and</strong> of spirituality. As a partnership you<br />
likely agree on the powerful effect of Spirit in<br />
your lives, <strong>and</strong> in seeing things though a<br />
different lens than that of consensus<br />
thinking. One or both of you may also have<br />
been wounded in your inherited beliefs in<br />
some way; perhaps in your early life you may<br />
have been forced into relationship with some<br />
sort of spiritual community to which you did<br />
not feel a deep bond. If so, this issue remains<br />
to haunt you to a greater or lesser extent in<br />
your adult life, <strong>and</strong> it is likely that this<br />
relationship will have a positive affect on the<br />
situation. Through conversations <strong>and</strong><br />
activities with your partner, you may well feel<br />
your way into a different <strong>and</strong> more fulfilling<br />
connection with the divine, as manifesting in<br />
each of your hearts <strong>and</strong> minds, although not<br />
necessarily from the st<strong>and</strong>point of any other<br />
societal group. Together you have an abiding<br />
interest in matters of religion <strong>and</strong> philosophy,<br />
although this is likely to represent your own<br />
style of spiritual involvement rather than any<br />
form of spiritual institution.<br />

(within 3.6 degrees) with<br />
Neptune
27<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
The strongest blend of the energies<br />
represented by these two planets.<br />
Saturn brings an extremely practical<br />
dimension to the visionary idealism of<br />
Neptune. Once you two work through any<br />
confusion regarding expectations you might<br />
have of each other, you are likely to create a<br />
responsible, compassionate team that works<br />
well together <strong>and</strong> takes social issues very<br />
seriously. You may also share a talent in<br />
music, film or the healing arts. Your<br />
relationship may suffer confusion regarding<br />
restrictions imposed upon it, where you find<br />
yourselves both attracted to the security<br />
imposed by such limits, <strong>and</strong> simultaneously<br />
repelled or stifled by these same restrictions.<br />
Use your time together to learn to balance<br />
your need for security with your need for<br />
freedom, <strong>and</strong> you may just transform this<br />
polarity into a new form of integration. With<br />
sturdy Saturn here to ground the gr<strong>and</strong><br />
visions of Neptune, you two could create<br />
anything from a fashion magazine, or a good<br />
film, to a whole new form of religion.<br />
Composite Neptune in sextile<br />
(within 4.5 degrees) with Pluto<br />
The planetary energies flow together, open<br />
into new possibilities, new connections.<br />
This aspect between composite Neptune <strong>and</strong><br />
Pluto is a generational aspect that many of<br />
your contemporaries will share, <strong>and</strong> indicates<br />
a relationship that is very attuned into the<br />
collective, both in its conscious <strong>and</strong> more<br />
unconscious aspects. You share a subtle<br />
intuition <strong>and</strong> unusually clear insight into<br />
others. Because the influence of the<br />
unconscious is especially strong in your<br />
relationship, it benefits you both to connect<br />
with your deepest, highest selves in order to<br />
be happy. You are part of a dawning<br />
awareness that we that cannot help but be<br />
part of creating a new paradigm for life on<br />
planet earth. You function at your best<br />
together when you are in service to the world,<br />
helping increase awareness of<br />
interconnectedness <strong>and</strong> oneness.<br />
Composite Sun in weak trine<br />

The planetary energies flow smoothly; the<br />
connection is easy <strong>and</strong> beneficial.<br />
This aspect between composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
Moon gives your relationship a stable <strong>and</strong><br />
highly supportive foundation where your<br />
basic action <strong>and</strong> reaction impulses fit<br />
together like h<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> glove. Because you<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> the other's feelings <strong>and</strong><br />
motivations in an intuitive way, you tend to<br />
proceed together with confidence <strong>and</strong> a<br />
sense of well being to accomplish whatever it<br />
is you set out to do. Together, you tend to<br />
shine a warm, healthy <strong>and</strong> optimistic light on<br />
your shared path, looking upon life's<br />
problems as challenges you can overcome<br />
rather than as obstacles that will get in your<br />
way. You likely experience sound<br />
communication <strong>and</strong> mutual underst<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
between you. You mutually support each<br />
other <strong>and</strong> thus maintain a poised <strong>and</strong> cheerful
28<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
attitude toward life, so that your creativity<br />
flows freely. With a blending this harmonious,<br />
you might only need to beware of getting<br />
complacent or lazy about tackling problem<br />
areas. Taking some risks at times creates<br />
opportunities for further growth <strong>and</strong><br />
expansion.<br />
Composite Sun in weak square<br />
(within 10.7 degrees) with<br />
Jupiter<br />
The planetary energies conflict; internal <strong>and</strong><br />

effort over time.<br />
This aspect between composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
Jupiter gives your relationship an optimistic<br />
<strong>and</strong> high-spirited quality, with a strong bent<br />
toward growth <strong>and</strong> expansion. As a<br />
partnership you are likely to be fortunate in<br />
your material surroundings. You are likely to<br />
be convivial <strong>and</strong> lively, generous with both<br />
your money <strong>and</strong> your affections. You may<br />
share a tendency to overdo things, or to<br />
overindulge in the things you love. You may<br />
also experience some degree of conflict<br />
between your material <strong>and</strong> your spiritual<br />
aspirations. Together, you have an attraction<br />
to higher learning <strong>and</strong> travel, or other ways of<br />
exp<strong>and</strong>ing your mutual horizons. You may<br />
want to be aware of a potential extravagant<br />
edge to your shared activities, so that you<br />
benefit when you look carefully before you<br />
leap <strong>and</strong> are patient with each other when the<br />
surf is low. Rest assured knowing that another<br />
set of waves will eventually come along <strong>and</strong><br />
sweep you off onto the next adventure.<br />
Composite Sun in weak<br />
conjunction<br />
(within 10.3 degrees) with<br />
Pluto<br />
The strongest blend of the energies<br />
represented by these two planets.<br />
This conjunction between composite Sun <strong>and</strong><br />
Pluto brings out the power drive in your<br />
relationship <strong>and</strong> signifies a powerful intensity<br />
of connection between you. This relationship<br />
is likely to change your whole life. It's all about<br />
your own personal evolution with a capital E,<br />
<strong>and</strong> your joint transformation as well. Pluto's<br />
house position may tell you what part of your<br />
lives together will be most impacted by the<br />
changes that this relationship has in store for<br />
you, but in any case, power features strongly<br />
into the equation. Powerful feelings,<br />
powerful attachments, <strong>and</strong> power plays could<br />
abound. Pluto's presence may also express<br />
itself as an almost compulsive joint urge for<br />
self-transformation, <strong>and</strong> the relationship may<br />
itself go through many changes, as you<br />
transform both individually <strong>and</strong> in the way<br />
that you express yourselves as a unit. This may<br />
be a large part of the reason that you have<br />
come together, <strong>and</strong> together you have<br />
tremendous capacity for regeneration <strong>and</strong><br />
rebirth. There is a strong force magnetizing<br />
your involvement with each other <strong>and</strong> an<br />
inclination to stay absorbed in the<br />
relationship as long as it lasts. If this is a
29<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
romantic relationship, you may find that you<br />
use your sexuality to play with <strong>and</strong> work<br />
through power issues. In a business<br />
partnership, you tend to drive hard, <strong>and</strong> can<br />
work single-mindedly as a team to pursue<br />
joint goals <strong>and</strong> to easily establish your place in<br />
the market. Whatever the basis for this<br />
relationship, it benefits you to train your<br />
considerable energy on the cultivation of the<br />
yin qualities of vulnerability, surrender <strong>and</strong><br />
cooperation. As you learn how to get out of<br />
your own way <strong>and</strong> to treat each other with<br />
kindness, you surrender control while<br />
maintaining your powerful focus in a more<br />
conscious manner. Then your relationship can<br />
become a focal point for the transformation<br />
of society itself.<br />
Composite Venus in weak<br />
trine<br />
(within 7.2 degrees) with<br />
Saturn<br />
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the<br />
connection is easy <strong>and</strong> beneficial.<br />
This aspect between composite Venus <strong>and</strong><br />
Saturn brings a potential blockage to your<br />
relationship, as well as a deepening <strong>and</strong> a<br />
concentration of your powers. With this<br />
aspect, although you may notice you don't get<br />
what you want from each other, you are likely<br />
to have a strong sense of duty to the<br />
partnership, <strong>and</strong> to be very loyal with each<br />
other. You may feel as though you were<br />
working at cross-purposes at times. Especially<br />
in a romantic relationship, obstacles to do<br />
with distance, age, lack of availability or the<br />
like, may crop up on your joint path, making it<br />
difficult for you get to where you want to go<br />
with each other. Even in a business-oriented<br />
partnership, these types of issues may<br />
present problems <strong>and</strong> keep you from feeling<br />
as though you were entirely on the same page<br />
with each other. In the long run, or in a more<br />
business-oriented relationship, this aspect<br />
can provide a strong <strong>and</strong> steady structure that<br />
actually supports the manifestation of your<br />
shared dreams <strong>and</strong> desires. If you can work<br />
with the obstacles that may plague you at the<br />
outset, you will find this placement can<br />
eventually become your greatest asset,<br />
supporting the engine of your shared desires<br />
moving in a very specific direction.<br />

This aspect between composite Jupiter <strong>and</strong><br />
the Midheaven brings a joyful recognition<br />
between you <strong>and</strong> good luck generally,<br />
although with a perhaps overly optimistic<br />
assessment of your potential. You two may<br />
feel like you can move mountains together,<br />
<strong>and</strong> you might need to be aware of the<br />
possibility of glossing over the drawbacks<br />
along the way to a proposed outcome. It may<br />
be best to temper your joyful expectations

with a healthy dose of pessimism <strong>and</strong> reality<br />
checking. In a romantic relationship, you are<br />
likely to be excited over your plans for a<br />
shared future. You might want to be sure that<br />
you're on course before you go ahead with<br />
your plans. You also may have a joint urge for<br />
taking in the broader point of view that comes<br />
with extended travel, while teaching <strong>and</strong><br />
learning together are also likely to be a strong<br />
part of your relationship experience.<br />
Composite Saturn in weak<br />
opposition<br />
(within 7.6 degrees) with<br />
Chiron<br />
The planetary energies are polarized; outer<br />
events stimulate their interaction; integration<br />
is the challenge.<br />
With this aspect in your composite chart you<br />
are likely to be engaged in a relationship in<br />
which there is difficulty <strong>and</strong> also great healing<br />
potential around issues of authority. It may be<br />
that one or both of you have had painful<br />
experiences as a child, when you were forced<br />
to submit to an arbitrary authority or<br />
limitation of some kind. Perhaps you had the<br />
experience of a bad father. The relationship<br />
with your father was damaged in some way; it<br />
was something you had to get away from,<br />
either from his overbearing nature or from his<br />
neediness <strong>and</strong> lack of presence. These<br />
wounds can manifest in adult life as an<br />
attachment <strong>and</strong> also great difficulty with<br />
authority. For example you may endlessly<br />
achieve positions of authority <strong>and</strong> then have<br />
second thoughts about it. As you continually<br />
work through whatever arises in your daily<br />
interactions with each other, these types of<br />
issues may come up for acceptance <strong>and</strong><br />
eventual healing. Since the powerful<br />
associated emotions may lie below the level<br />
of your ordinary awareness, your relationship<br />
connection may help to bring them to<br />
consciousness, <strong>and</strong> eventually acceptance. As<br />
a partnership, you may also wind up working<br />
these issues with others. You may be the ones<br />
to re-work the structure of society itself in<br />
some way, or to become advisors or leaders in<br />
the social sphere, perhaps in connection with<br />
organizations devoted to new age healing<br />
techniques. You may feel the need to redeem<br />
yourselves <strong>and</strong> your families; to restructure<br />
what you have internalized from your<br />
heritage. A better level of integration is<br />
possible, producing a more self-assured <strong>and</strong><br />
balanced personality, independent from<br />
parental influences or even of those of<br />
society.<br />
Composite Uranus in weak<br />

(within 6.6 degrees) with<br />

The strongest blend of the energies<br />
represented by these two planets.<br />
With this aspect between composite Uranus<br />
<strong>and</strong> Neptune, your relationship tends to be<br />
future oriented <strong>and</strong> idealistic with a strong<br />
awareness of collective energies. You likely<br />
share with your partner an interest in
31<br />
RELATIONSHIP REPORT FOR ANGELA AND JAMES<br />
mysticism <strong>and</strong> the occult. Social ideals will<br />
powerfully affect your relationship's<br />
expression in the world <strong>and</strong> your shared<br />
concept of spirituality. You may feel a joint<br />
pull to use the relationship in the service of<br />
humanity. The two of you have a high<br />
awareness of collective energies <strong>and</strong> you may<br />
feel a strong pull to be of service. As you put<br />
your social ideals to the test <strong>and</strong> learn from<br />
the mistakes of the past, you can provide a<br />
gift not only to yourselves but to the larger<br />
world around you as well.<br />
Composite Pluto in weak trine<br />
(within 6.7 degrees) with<br />
Chiron<br />
mutually agreed conscious relationship can<br />
be an invaluable asset in pursuing such<br />
rewards. There are great depths of passion<br />
within each one of you, likely the result of<br />
painful experiences from early childhood, <strong>and</strong><br />
there is tremendous benefit to be gained<br />
when these experiences become better<br />
integrated. When you become more<br />
conscious of these patterns you have a huge<br />
capacity to heal yourself <strong>and</strong> even others in<br />
your circle. As a partnership you have a keen<br />
intuition for each other, <strong>and</strong> great power to<br />
transform not only yourselves <strong>and</strong> your<br />
relationship but the larger collective<br />
surrounding you as well.<br />
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the<br />
connection is easy <strong>and</strong> beneficial.<br />
With this aspect in your composite chart you<br />
are likely to be engaged in a relationship in<br />
which there is difficulty <strong>and</strong> also great healing<br />
potential around issues of power <strong>and</strong> control.<br />
There may also be compulsive behavior on the<br />
part of one or both partners that comes up for<br />
greater acceptance <strong>and</strong> eventual healing<br />
during the course of this relationship. Potent<br />
healing abilities are ultimately indicated with<br />
this placement, but you must first work<br />
through some tough issues, <strong>and</strong> this<br />
relationship can be life changing in that<br />
regard. Of course the relationship will be an<br />
important testing ground where power <strong>and</strong><br />
control issues emerge, <strong>and</strong> where a<br />
tremendous increase in consciousness around<br />
them may result. The safety zone of a
