Conjunctions

[Veronica]

I read something a while ago that really clicked with me in regards to synastry and what bring people together or pushes them a part, its is the idea that conjunctions are a major driving force behind this.
The idea being that for example when two people have a conjunction in a synastry chart, when that area is being influenced by a transit, both parties are going to be influenced at the same time, albeit in there one unique way dependant of what bodies are being acted upon.
This really shed light onto several of my own personal relationships, espicially with my daughter ( we have 3 conjunctions) and with people in my generation whom I share outer planet conjunctions ( and seem to be pushed away from).
I hadnt read of this here and thought it was worth making a note of and concidered when reading a synastry report. Some transits like the moon which influence myself quite heavily (espicially my lunar returns) are very forceful in telationship dynamics and others, like a neptune transit will be felt for quite some time in a rekationship if influencing a synastry conjunction.

This is true for every exact or nearly-exact dynamic interaspect between the planets of two charts: each transit to one of them is simultaneously transit to the other.

That is such a fascinating thing to me!
It helps solidify the truth that lives are a shared expierence, that no event is isolated, that human expierence is universal and what I think of as my own unique interpretation of my world.....well....isnt unique at all.
It also reinforces the interplay between to "people" by creating a comon ground of expierence with the other able to act as a mirror of sorts to the self allowing it to expand its own awareness of the expierence.

I can see why during long planet transits, like my Mars being transited by Neptune it is to my advantage to be around people who do not accentuate that possibly draing peroid by sharing that aspect. But with people who help lift that time to a more positive spin.

It's true if they're close enough. For example, Marion's local Ascendant is 0°04' from conjunct my Moon. They definitely receive transits together. With Mars square both of them the last couple of days, we had one of our rare (almost never) out-and-out fights. (We're better now.)

Im glad you both are better.
Mars transits are touchy.

Being better means being able to see it for what is and to let it work through you to bring you to a benifical aspect instead of a malefic one. You both are adept and that even under such pressure.

Its interesting how now that I can understand that in each relationship I have with the individuals I have in my life (ie father sister kids co worker ect) I personally will be going through a transit that is influencing my life in one aspect (my daughter and me are both feeling the neptune transit in our way) while in another relationship I am expierencing a different transit involving different planets with someone else.

So while in my own natal chart when I am being transited by the planets Its almost like I am drawing into my sphere of existance others who are or will be also influenced by that motion.

That would explain why at certain times in our lives certain people seem to appear out of the blue to share in the expierence.
