Romance and Synastry Astrology – Composite Charts








Edited by Gemma



Composite charts are a reliable method for looking at what a relationship may be like between two people, including how they might get along from day to day and some of the major themes that can characterise the relationship. They can be used for romantic relationships and any other relationships, including those in business and within families.

The composite chart is calculated by taking all the planets and angles (the Ascendant, the Descendant, the MC and the IC) and finding the mid-way points between them on the zodiac wheel. These mid-way points are then plotted to create a third chart, which is the newly calculated composite chart.

There are some different methods for reading the composite chart. Here in this article I will list the planets from Sun through to Pluto, with a brief description of what each one means in the composite chart.

Composite Sun
The Sun tells us about the overall energies that characterise the relationship and what it is there for. Major themes in the relationship may be seen by the position of the Sun and its aspects. The Sun is also an indication of the general vitality of exchanges between two people and how well they can express themselves smoothly with one-another.

Composite Moon
The Moon tells us about the habits people may have within a relationship that are borne from expressions of emotion. It can also be a good indicator how open and honest they can be with one another about feelings and life’s more intimate matters. The Moon is an important indicator for compatibility as it shows how in sync we can be emotionally.

Composite Mercury
A well-placed Mercury is great for any relationship as it indicates the quality of communication between two people and how they think compatibly when they are together. It can also tell us the ability of them person to express their thoughts with one another in ways that will lead to mutual understanding and good mental rapport.

Composite Venus
Venus is extremely important when looking at romantic relationships because it rules love and attraction. It can be a good indicator of the amount of generosity and affection between two people. Venus in a relationship that isn’t romantic can tell us whether two people will be well-matched in artistic and aesthetic tastes, including those of music and food.

Composite Mars
Mars is a great indicator of the ego-drives between two people within a relationship and this can tell us how likely they are to argue or step on one another’s toes on a day-to-day basis. Will there ba a lot of conflict or will the union flow easily? It is also how well we work towards a common goal and is an indicator of sexual compatibility.

Composite Jupiter
Jupiter shows us our growth within a relationship and this area of life may be blessed with plenty of positivity and luck. Where Jupiter is, we might look to this area together for expanding our horizons and this is most often fun to do along the way. Venus is also a planet of excess so if he is afflicted, there may be a danger of giving too much here.

Composite Saturn
Saturn is complicated in, because he can indicate fears and insecurities, while at the same time the ability for a relationship to last. This depends on how well placed Saturn is in the chart. Saturn can tell us where restrictions and frustrations are felt, yet can also point towards dedication and the sense of responsibility towards one another.

Composite Uranus
Where Uranus is in the composite chart shows us which area of life we will need to give a free reign to as a duo. It really is not a good idea to control the course of those things influenced by Uranus, because he demands the ability to switch and change on a whim. This can create either discomfort or excitement, yet the whole chart must be looked at to decide which is most likely.

Composite Neptune
Neptune is the planet of illusions and this means that a Neptune under strain in the composite chart can mean a relationship is never what it appears to be on the surface and this can cause disappointments later on. However, if Neptune is strong and working beneficially, it can indicate a highly spiritual bond with a quality of selflessness between two people.

Composite Pluto
Pluto is a planet that may introduce an element of intensity to a relationship in the area of life indicated in the chart. This could be expressed as stubbornness and power struggles between two people or it could occur as a catalyst for deeply transformative growth that is essentially valuable for the personal progress of each individual. Pluto can also indicate an ability to deeply understand certain elements of a relationship or a profoundly emotional bond.
