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

Venus square Saturn
It's pitiful to see poor you in such a state, literally starved for love. Your so-called sweetie has really been holding out on you, huh? Few people can resist your luscious siren charms, and thus you've gotten a bit spoiled with all the attention. So your contained, precise partner happened by, you figured that a little cool breeze might make for a refreshing change of pace, not to mention a challenge. So you got what you asked for -- one heck of a challenge. And you're breaking under the strain. You're doing things you wouldn't do if you were in your right mind; trying to get the stroking you deserve. But don't be so quick to throw this one on the ash heap. For once you've chosen a lover who is not as shiny on the surface but is solid to the core. You're not having as much fun in this relationship as you have had in others, but you're on the road to a love relationship that demands the best from you even while it gives you the kind of satisfaction that can endure for a lifetime. You've found the oatmeal of lovers, hardly glamorous but undeniably down-to-earth, dependable, and good for you.
Mercury square Pluto
Yikes! Your love relationship can be a rather tense place to be. Your partner may or may not be playing a little footsie with someone else. Whether it's gone all the way is unclear, but what is crystal clear is the tension it's caused. Pockets are gone through. Emails are intercepted. Phone bills are pored over. It's all so tedious and tacky, isn't it, two lovers treating each other like enemy agents instead of best buddies? Yet the friction keeps erupting. Both of you analyze just about everything the other says and does, seeking hidden meanings. Is that argument really over the laundry, or is it about something deeper?Chill out Sherlock. The problem at the root of all this instability is your insecurity, coupled with your partner's secretiveness. Take these words to heart: no one who is happy will stray. In order to hold on to the one you love, you have to be the kind of person that you'd like to come home to. Don't demand and bluster and question; be the easy, lively you that you are when you're running on all your cylinders. You'll see very shortly that your lover is wooed by your wiles alone.
Mercury opposite Mercury
Bicker bicker bicker, bitch bitch bitch -- it's a good thing you and your sweetie have each other, because no one else could stand you. The pair of you are quick to pick fights, even quicker to find fault, or blame each other for what's going wrong. And then both of you laboriously explain your point of view, blissfully unaware that your partner is just waiting for you to shut up so they can get a word in. You may find you have may arguments related to time, or agreed-upon details: How many times has your lover botched a plan to meet up somewhere? And how furious are you each time it happens? The bad news: Your endless minor disagreements deliver zilch in the way of furthering your relationship. In fact, they serve to drive you apart, since both of you are apt to say any old thing that comes into your head when you're angry, turning a fight about dishes into a full-scale war. However, the news isn't all dire. You and your dearest do have quite the stimulating relationship. You're never bored. You could even be happy together, if you'd learn to give each other equal time on the microphone. Start listening as much as you talk, and you'll see the friction dial down.
Mars opposite Uranus
Your lover says you're paranoid. That you're imagining things, you're irrational, crazy, overreacting. But the plain truth is that everything you fear is actually the case. Your lover isn't as trustworthy as you'd like them to be. Clandestine flirtations, or worse, outright infidelities, are a distinct possibility. You know it in your heart, but try to deny it. The result is a war between your heart and mind that has you quite perplexed and upset. But you didn't set this one up right from the very start, did you? You got involved too quickly -- you certainly got physical without thinking first. Frequently you get in a situation where you and your lover are quibbling nonstop, both of you unwilling to compromise and cooperate. The answer lies within yourself. The lover you chose will never be one of those cozy, sit-by-the-fire-and-purr types. You will never get a calm, content connection with this one. But who wants calm when you can have fire and excitement? Embrace the tumult. Let go of your desires to control. And you just may find that the excitement of your tempestuous love relationship is enough to tide you over during the rough times.
Sun opposite Neptune
Your lover really has you on the seesaw, huh? Up and down, back and forth, you think you know where you're going in the relationship and then you look around and realize you're the only one on the path. Your lover's tough to pin down, and since you're a person who values stability and commitment, it bugs you more than it should. You wonder darkly what your sweetie is doing when not with you, and it shows. Jealousy is so terribly unbecoming! Particularly when you're dealing with a significant other who's evasive and difficult to read at the best of times. The key to rolling with the ups and downs is your innate confidence. Think about it -- haven't you been the one in charge in most of your relationships? And hasn't it ultimately made you feel contemptuous of lovers who so easily let you roll over them like a juggernaut? So enjoy the fact that you finally found someone who won't march in lockstep with you. You don't always know what to expect from your lover, and that's a good thing! It keeps things exciting, and that's a whole lot of fun. Embrace the chaos and your love will thrive.
Sun quincunx Venus
It's not that you don't admire your lover. On the contrary, you recognize the qualities that draw you hither: beauty, kindness, a sweet-natured desire to connect deeply with others. But along with those good points come some bad ones, and that's what has you all riled up. You're annoyed, even contemptuous, over what you view as laziness. Your lover is a gentle dreamer, and you're a mover and a shaker. And that bugs you. Must you do everything yourself to get things done right? What's gonna light a fire under your sweetie's tail to get something moving?Sorry to let you in on this, but almost no one can measure up to your high standards. And although you don't realize it, your lover's relaxed nature is exactly what a striver like you really needs. You could be getting the nurturing and affection that provides the healing yin to your raging yang, if you could just relax enough to enjoy it. Cut your lover some slack. Even though their way of doing things may not be your way, that doesn't mean it's wrong. Focus on your lover's more admirable qualities rather than what's missing and you'll find you start appreciating what you've got.
Venus quincunx Mercury
It feels like you and your partner are out of sync. Casually tossed-off remarks turn into major fights; small issues loom between you as if they were large ones. The problem at the root of it all is that you and your lover have a hard time communicating with each other. You aren't a big fan of long, rambling talks about your relationship. You'd rather spend your time relaxing and having fun, letting the chips fall where they may. But your partner is keen on analyzing your problems, pinning them down, discussing them (to death, in your opinion). You often feel trapped by all the chatter. Why can't you just enjoy yourselves?But there's a method to your partner's madness -- don't let childish petulance keep you from advancing in your relationship. No, it's no fun to have long, meaningful talks about your differences, but through them you'll learn to make compromises. Luckily, both you and your sweetie have each other's best interests in mind. Work from that standpoint and you'll soon see eye-to-eye.
Sun quincunx Sun
Someone's on the outs in this unbalanced pairing -- are you hanging on to a lover whom you feel is too good for you? Or did you find yourself a sweetie who admires you so humbly that you feel both flattered and, in your heart of hearts, contemptuous? Either way, your suspicions are correct: You and your squeeze are definitely a mismatch. It seems you almost never see eye-to-eye. And perhaps worst of all, you don't even have much in common. Sticking with this relationship has probably been, and may continue to be, a long, hard, frustrating slog.But all is not lost! Though you may be fundamentally mismatched, there are pairs who manage to transcend the astrological hurdles strewn in their way. If both of you feel you just can't live without the other, quibbles and all, you're both capable of bending just enough to come together in harmony. Learn to accept what you think of as your lover's shortcomings. Don't focus on what your relationship lacks; instead, turn your attention to the qualities you admire in your sweetie. With a little time and attention this is a love that can grow, like a magnificent flower that takes root in stony soil.
Mars quincunx Pluto
It's no use fitting a square peg into a round hole, they say, but that hasn't stopped you from trying to nitpick your lover into submission. You're the sign of aggression and energy. That's usually a good thing. But in this case your drive has gone awry. Your irresistible force has come up against an immovable object: your stern, sexy, stubborn love. You're convinced you can change your sweetie into just the person you'd like to be with. Can't you see that all your demands are getting you nowhere? Rather than comply with your directives, your lover pulls away. You view this retreat as a challenge, and push harder. And thus a cycle is set up, The more you chase, the further away your lover gets.It's time you cooled your jets a little. Back off. Give your lover a break. Your way is not THE way, and you don't know everything. Maybe if you spent a bit more time trying to understand the way your lover does things, rather than demanding everything be your way, you could channel some of that extra energy into fun and passion rather than draining it all away with anger.
Mars quincunx Neptune
There's something odd here, something unhealthy beneath the surface. Are you or your lover dealing with issues around addictions? Is one of you being unfaithful to the other? Are problems from the past making themselves known right now? There's something going on, but it's difficult to grasp and really figure out -- it could be that you're not looking honestly at your problems, that you're ignoring what you see and just blithely focusing on day-to-day issues. Look a little deeper. Is there something your lover has been telling you in their actions but not with words? It's difficult for you, the straight-ahead communicator, to read signs and vibes. But you're going to have to learn, and fast, because something's gone wrong between you and your sweetie.Once you figure out what the problem is, it's best to face it squarely. Bring it out into the light and it won't seem so mysterious and looming. Ask questions. Listen to the answers. It's not that your lover means to withhold information, it's just that you're so intimidating at times. Your problems aren't insurmountable, just difficult -- and figuring out what you have to work with is your first step.
No conjunctions
There's glue, and then there's glue. Elmer's versus epoxy, Velcro versus nails. Fortunately, with no difficult conjunctions between you, your relationship is bound by the easy-to-separate type of togetherness, not the wild-horses-couldn't-drag-us-apart variety. Now, don't misunderstand: This is not to say that there's not a strong connection between you. But it's nice, isn't it, to be able to take the occasional separate vacation; to enjoy your own interests without your partner feeling threatened; to be two distinct individuals who choose to hang out together. Compare this to the joined-at-the-hip, can't-bear-to-be-apart couple. Don't you always wonder about them? What do they think will happen if they're not together for an entire evening, much less a day or even a week?Separation is not a problem for you two; in fact, you may do it by choice on a regular basis. After all, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and this is surely true of you and your partner. You take great joy in sharing your individual experiences, as well as in spending time together. If anything, you might have to make it a point to schedule in time to be together! You may each be so wrapped up in your own orbit that you suddenly realize that days or even weeks have gone by without you two sharing a full day together.Don't let that happen. Use the previous sections of this report to discover the challenges of your relationship, which so often turn out to be opportunities for growth and development. You two have chosen to be together, and likewise, you can choose to grow together.
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!
