The Friction, Differences and Karma Meters: every couple faces a certain set of challenges, and the number and type of challenges determine whether your relationship will be merely interesting or out-and-out difficult. At The Astrologer, we've broken down these challenges into three sections: sources of friction, the major differences between you, and the karmic ties from past lives that draw you together today.
On the first two meters, Friction and Differences, a score somewhere in the middle is probably best. Friction can be a good thing -- after all, the same energy that makes you lust after each other also makes you fight. And we all know that a good argument, like good sex, clears the air and lets you know your passion is alive! The same goes for differences between you in the ways that you think and view the world: These contrasts keep the relationship dynamic.
Karma, on the other hand, isn't such a great thing, even if your past-life bonds were positive ones. This lifetime is... Read more

Jupiter square Venus
You can be a real pain in the butt, and we wouldn't blame your sweetie for booting you right out the door. Lucky for you, things haven't gotten that bad yet -- but you're pushing your luck. The fact of the matter is that you chose a lover who doesn't harmonize with you naturally. They tend towards the indulgent: fine food, good wine (and plenty of it!), and abundant socializing while your more discerning, intellectual nature cries out for weightier stimulation. You crave a lover who can talk and argue and analyze as well as experience and enjoy. So, feeling stifled in your relationship, you take it out on the one person who loves you more than any other, which just isn't fair.If you can squash your desire to lecture and hector, you can make it past this rough period. Though you refuse to see it, your lover and you actually bring out the best in each other -- you're drawn out of your stolid funk, while your lover's self-indulgent tendencies are curbed in your presence, whether you realize it or not. Try to give your lover a break. Stop trying to control and change them. Ultimately, the love you want is already in your hands.
Mars square Mercury
Nervous intensity is at the center of your relationship, and it's an awfully shaky ground to build upon: emotional quicksand instead of solid, dependable rock. You often find yourself furious with your lover, who blurts out the worst things at the most inopportune moments (and like as not in front of the worst people -- best to keep this lover away from your boss!). Too often have you been wounded with the unvarnished truth. Now, tragically, you're apt to discount what your lover says instead of taking helpful hints on board. The smallest issues seem to erupt into big arguments; the two of you misunderstand each other's intentions and actions. But it's not all bad news. The reason your relationship has lasted this long is because you can bring out the best in each other. The competitiveness simmering under the surface keeps things interesting, sparkling. There's an energy between you that can't be denied. Try approaching each situation with calm. Talk slowly. Listen more. If a little cool breeze can blow into your relationship, it might make it easier to relax rather than reacting impulsively.
Saturn square Venus
There's a crucial imbalance in your relationship, and it's tearing your partnership to shreds. Sorry to break it to you, but most of the problems can be laid at your door. You've been holding out on your lover, emotionally and physically. It's not that you're not attracted to your mate -- you chose yourself this sensual social butterfly. That physical attraction and emotional bond was what got you into this relationship. But something's gone awry. You've grown colder. You see your sweetie as begging for crumbs of affection, which you selfishly withhold. What's made you so haughty and dismissive?If you're truly dissatisfied with your pairing, it may be time to tally up your bills and move on. But if there's still a spark there, it's time to investigate why you've turned so chilly. Is it fear -- of being vulnerable, of letting someone know you completely -- that's holding you back? Is it connected to past experiences in which you got the short end of the stick? A little navel-gazing is in order; once you heal your own old wounds you'll have more to give to your yearning significant other.
Saturn opposite Uranus
People have probably told you that you and your lover are an interesting couple. You don't add up on paper. You are the solid and reliable one, who holds down a good job and trots through life's paces staunchly. Your sweetie, on the other hand, is a mover-and-shaker, given to dramatic (and nerve-wrackingly sudden!) life-changing moves, glamour, and indulgence. But something about the two of you works. It's not all sunshine and roses, though. One of you -- likely you -- is quite jealous and possessive, a quality the other finds particularly unappealing. The jealous partner demands too much information, and wants the relationship moving in a defined direction, now. This leaves the other partner feeling stifled, rebellious -- and ironically, in the mindframe to stray.If this jealousy can be conquered, there's much to recommend your pairing. You enjoy each other's company; your conversation sparkles and snaps. The jealous partner must vow to lighten up a little -- and then actually do it. This stimulating relationship is well worth the effort, and giving up those negative emotions will remove the anchor that weighs you both down.
Saturn quincunx Pluto
You've got a Romeo and Juliet thing going on. It seems at times as if your relationship is doomed by circumstance. One of you will be in the mood to get closer while the other is distracted by things outside your pairing. Or you're never single at the same time. Or other forces -- your family? geographical distance? -- keep you apart. Will the universe never line up and let you just be together in peace? You feel as if your love is being tested, and you're right. But how can you make it through the hard times unscathed?The key to weathering any rough patch -- those 'for worse' moments -- lies in your ability to sacrifice. There's something you're going to need to give up in order to move ahead, and likewise for your partner. It's painful to give up something secure for something that seems unsettled and unreliable. But the only way you can move forward is to trust, to make a leap. There's something beautiful awaiting you on the other side; let go and believe in the two of you. You can endure the obstacles -- together.
Saturn quincunx Neptune
Past indiscretions have a way of coming back on you, and yours have rebounded on you. Your mate has discovered something you wanted to keep hidden, and you're feeling exposed and insecure. What you fear is true -- your lover does think less of you than before. But what you don't know is that the shift is due more to your secrecy than to what you did. How can your mate trust you if you keep things hidden? Come on, open up. Reveal all the aspects of the situation. What were you feeling at the time? How has this affected your life? How have you changed since then?Opening up like this is quite uncomfortable for you. You would much rather revert to your usual pattern, pretending like nothing's going on while you bury your head in work. You also fear rejection if your lover knows your true self. But you must let some air into your dark closet. It's hard to breathe back there! Let your lover know what's up; explain the repercussions of your past choices, and allow your lover to make choices about what to do next. It's scary being an open book, but you can only move forward by letting go.
Sun conjunct Pluto
Alone, in your most private of moments, you and your lover are quite a match. Your hearts beat as one, your touch makes your mate melt, etc. etc. But out of the bedroom things are not so rosy. There is much dissension between you and your mate, likely centered either on your social lives or careers. You are sensual and expansive, attractive to others and often surrounded by a crowd. Your mate, on the other hand, tends to be more reserved and conservative, needs more alone time, and is a bit punishing. Together you have a tendency to play parent-child, with the one playing the parent switching off from time to time.Both of you must learn to temper your tendencies towards extremism. You actually have much to learn from each other if you can stop fighting each other's influences and instead learn what you can from your differences. You could stand to be more directed; your sweetie could certainly lighten up a bit. Why not call a truce? Let the sweet harmony you feel physically radiate out to the other areas of your relationship as you learn to treat each other with more consideration and kindness.
Mars conjunct Saturn
Your relationship is similar to those high school matchups between the head cheerleader and the quarterback -- the couple looks great together, and everyone cheers them on, but when all is said and done they're together more out of politics than passion. So it is with you and your mate. Yours may be a hookup of practicality and convenience, creating stability for your partner and a dead weight for you. Your partner seems to block you at every step, throwing buckets of cold water on all your hot ideas, until, frankly, you don't feel like sharing anymore. You'd do it on your own but they control the pursestrings, the schedule, and the keys to the shed. You could -- and probably do -- scream with frustration.Spending more time alone is key for you. Though it is only natural for two powerful and important people to spend time networking to stay that way, warmth will only develop if you give it time. Suggest romantic getaways. Give your tense lover a massage. Stay in bed late snuggling. No, you won't get as much done. But you'll have a lot more fun doing it.
I hope you have enjoyed the valuable insight, wisdom and guidance of this astrology report. You might be a little curious about astrology and perhaps wondering how an astrologer can know so much about you!
Astrology is a mathematical system. It's all about applying meaning to numbers, or more specifically, finding meaning in the movements of the planets around the Sun, as viewed from our perspective here on earth. These planetary movements are easily captured and recorded with measurements, calculations, angles and so on.
That's why astrology works so well with computers, whose programs are also based on numbers and formulas. In 'the old days' -- thousands of years ago, when astrology was first recorded -- those early astrologers had to painstakingly observe the heavens and catalog their observations for the next generation of astrologers to build upon. Thank goodness for the computer age! Now we can simply use computers to make those calculations quickly and pull just the applicable pieces of information. Now, astrology is instant, based upon thousands of years of observations obtained through careful methodology.
Interpretations of planetary positions are based in part on ancient Greek and Roman mythology, but your astrological report is unique, describing you and you only. Even in the case of twin siblings, their birth charts differ from each other's in at least a few ways. And besides, no one amounts to just a simple interpretation of their birth chart; everyone's personality is complex. Your astrological report leaves plenty of room for variations based on your free will, personal growth and transformation over a lifetime.
Just like you, your astrological report is unique. It’s generated online in seconds and provides you with instant insight at your fingertips. Whether you have a pressing question about your future or you just want some guidance and direction, now you can have it all -- in a fast, focused, all-about-you format.
You can choose from several different types to find the report that's right for you and your needs. Your natal report is all about you -- your unique characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, potential and so on. Compatibility reports analyze the connections between two different people, to see how well and in what ways they get along. And a forecast is based on where the planets are today and how they're affecting you, uniquely. Be sure to try a free sample of another report to find out more about you!
