2023 - TERRIBLE SSR

[Venus_Daily]

Hey, Jim. I chose Hiroshima. I'm really excited.

[Jim Eshelman]

That sounds like a great trip Looks like you're going for the double-Venus with Moon, which is pretty close there. (It's a really nice Venus chart.) Here's the breakdown for Hiroshima.

t Venus on WPa -0°21'
t Moon on WPa -0°31'
-----------------------------
r Venus on WP +1°39'
t Neptune on Asc +5°50'
r Jupiter on MC +6°16'

t Neptune sq r Jupiter 0°26' M
t Moon-Venus co 0°35' M
t Moon co r Venus 0°53' M
t Venus co r Venus 1°28' M
r Venus-Jupiter sq 1°42'


This will put those mundane Venus aspects and angularities in perspective. In PVL:

30°00' - Descendant
28°52' - t Venus
28°17' - t Moon
27°23' - r Venus

Jim, I know that chart will be operative the entire year in very subtle ways but the Enneads for Nov - through Feb of that year display close or exact Moon/Venus conjunctions. They're not angular. Should I look to that time period for manifestation?

[Jim Eshelman]

Maybe. But I haven't particularly observed Enneads timing the SSR. I'll see if I can narrow it a bit but, really, look for the whole year - starting with your really fun birthday trip!

Though I'm not fond of demi and quarti SSRs as such, they do seem to be able to filter out the quarter where main effects of the SSR will most strongly express. But none of your quarter charts repeats Jupiter symbolism, so we can move onto something else. (This might mean that the focus is on the first quarter.)

Checking your SLRs for similar symbolism, I note:

Sep 13. Transiting Venus 0°02' from IC!
Nov 6: r Venus on WP 1°30' (not as strong), meaning natal Venus-Jupiter angular
Dec 4: t Mars, Venus, and Pluto angular - not a clean hit but maybe connected

It looks like the focus is indeed on the first quarter for the strong, positive events you want.

BTW, I also checked your Demi-SLRs and didn't find any that addressed this specific question.

[Venus_Daily]

The only quatri that replicates the Moon/Venus symbolism is on Dec 4th with an exact Moon/Venus conjunction background in the 8th with the moon loosely conj Pluto. Pluto and Uranus are conspicuously absent for most of my SSRs. I hope that's not a bad omen. Meaning, meeting someone who's very nice but not being excited about dating them.

[Venus_Daily]

So, I'm looking to take time off work due to some negative returns. October's SLR seems pretty dramatic, but for financial reasons, I can really burn off 2 weeks of PTO at a time. The 6th through the 19th to 20th seem to be great because all though the base SLR seems to be very dramatic, the DSLR appears to e downright nasty. Although there are mitigating factors in both, I would pick the DSLR with an angular/foreground Mars/Pluto square to sit this one out.

[Venus_Daily]

Well, I'm finally in Page. It's beautiful.

[Jim Eshelman]

Well, I'm finally in Page. It's beautiful.

Terrific Happy birthday. Hope the trip remains lovely and the year is everything you want.

Please take an opportunity to tell us what is beautiful. A lot of us like to travel, including to areas like this on the Arizona-Utah border.

Hey, Jim. My SSR occurred last night at 9:20pm MountainTime. I had to come back early today because I accidentally set my ticket for the 6th. Do you think it will still be effective?

[Jim Eshelman]

Hey, Jim. My SSR occurred last night at 9:20pm MountainTime. I had to come back early today because I accidentally set my ticket for the 6th. Do you think it will still be effective?

I think it is effective for wherever you were the moment it occurred (which I calculate as September 5, 9:32:41 PM MST).

[Venus_Daily]

So, it should still carry over?

I think another protective effect is that even back home Venus is closely in the foreground and Jupiter is angular.

My trip over here was reflectivr of the SLR.

1. I had a terrible cold.
2. I had a terribly long delay in DFW, so I was forced to stay in Phoenix overnight.
3. They accidentally canceled my flight back for today.
4. On the incomming trip, they sent my luggage to Page while I was stuck in Phoenix.

Now, my symptoms have subsided and flight 3/3 have been a breeze. Not a single delay.

[Jim Eshelman]

So, it should still carry over?

Marion and I have had solar returns where we were only there a few minutes. Before we had as much experience, I theorized on might have to wait 24-30 hours (you may be remembering that), but I don't think that's true.

I think another protective effect is that even back home Venus is closely in the foreground and Jupiter is angular.

My concern at your home is that the closely angular Venus is 0°13' from square natal Saturn, which is only 0°22' from an angle. That doesn't meet your goals. (Keeping Venus out of the foreground is important to keep there from being a forerground Venus-Saturn square.) I'm glad you didn't have your SSR there.

Thank You, Jim. The afflicted moon in Taurus seemed to be the main problem. Hopefully, you can write a book soon about traveling with the SSR and use our experiences.

[Jim Eshelman]

Thank You, Jim. The afflicted moon in Taurus seemed to be the main problem. Hopefully, you can write a book soon about traveling with the SSR and use our experiences.

In the book to which I'm devoting 2024 to write, I do plan a chapter on astro-tourism.

You have the Moon-Saturn everywhere. No use fretting about it - it will have it's say during the year. My goal was to give something of equal or, hopefully, far stronger importance to counterbalance it overall.

[Venus_Daily]

For the sake of education, I just wanted to relay something I saw in both my SSR and my October Lunar return.

My SSR partilr conjunction between Sun/ Mercury is partile
Sesquiquadrate to pluto. Now, my october SLR features a Sun/Mercury conjunction square an angular Pluto.

Also, my SSR venus partile square Saturn is partile Sesquiquadrate Neptune, which is replicated in my Solar arcs with SA Neptune Sesquiquadrate Natal Venus. This year has been heartbreaking for me. I've always lived bybthe maxim that you dhould gonout of your way to be kind and nurturing to people, unfortunately, all I've encountered from women I work with is jealousy and bigotry. The October SLR chart was the chart for firing.

[Venus_Daily]

With Saturn getting closer yoto my SSR moon, my depression is getting worse. My depressive moods somatic symptoms like mild chills, pain, and extreme fatigue.

[Venus_Daily]

Jist found out an old family friend's mother passed in her home. Extremely sad. Found this out at 9:11 PM before getting ready for bed. Moon is partile square tr./ssr Saturn and opposite SSR moon. Natal Mercury is exactly on the ASC. Amazing symbolism in a fractal pattern related to the SSR for 2023. Tr moon acted as a trigger.

[Venus_Daily]

I'll be attending a funeral Monday of my childhood friend's mother. Saturn has been over my natal SSR MOON, and on Monday it will be 3 minutes separating SSR moon. I've been extremely depressed with Saturn over Moon, but I started supplementing with Vitamin D and my mood cleared. The woman who passed is also a childhood friend of my mother's. Very sad indeed.

[Jim Eshelman]

Very appropriate symbolism. I sympathize with your loss (and the effect on your friend and your mother), and am happy this was not more directly personal to you.

[Venus_Daily]

I have not been able to find a job. I stopped looking two weeks ago just because I was so discouraged. I've been so depressed lately. Thankfully, Saturn has cleared my Natal SSR Moon.

I believe the last difficult transits for this cycle will include Saturn aspecting Sun and progressed moon.

This coming month appears to be a lot more positive.

NSR (Feb 2, 2024, 11:26:03 AM CST, Kingsville, TX)
Moon opposite Jupiter down to 5 minutes involved a close T-Square with transiting Mercury. Moon/Jupiter widely over natal Saturn. The only thing that's not the same from the NSR when I got my first nursing job was Sun Opposite Uranus exactly on the horizon, which was also on Natal Saturn. (Nov 5 2021). With Mercury, I believe this will symbolize communication, learning, hopefully orientation! Even though I have double Saturn by way of Saturn Square Moon and Saturn rising, I also have Jupiter 37 minutes away from the Asc, which I hope is good enough to be replicated in this return chart.

Appears extremely fortunate. First, N. Venus/Jupiter are exactly on the angles throughout the Zodiac. TMSA puts my most fortunate Natal aspect on the angles within 46 minutes. There's a mundane square between tr. Venus/tr. Jupiter within 13 minutes according to SF.
Tr. Sun is Square Tr. Uranus throughout the Zodiac within about 48 minutes but not replicated mundanely.

Hopefully, this is enough to put my best forward and get me hired. The Tr. Venus/Jupiter square is most worrisome as I've always seen this aspect as money just dropping out of the sky as a gift, and that's it. A one time thing vs regular steady income. Another thing that worries me about N. Venus/Jupiter in the foreground, I don't want this just to be about having a nice time and socializing. I need a job.

Venus/Mars/Pluto are dancing around the West Point making them somewhat angular.
There's a very wide Moon/Jupiter square in the foreground. The most angular planet is tr. Moon exactly on the DSC.

Overall, I think the most positive indicator may be the NSR, but the only problem is there's not any Moon/Jupiter symbolism in the main chart like there has been for the past two years. I just hope this doesn't just signify me getting my tax return or some dumb gift. I've been so depressed the last three months. I sensed it immediately when I returned from Page. I remember being depressed since I was preschool, but kids are always able to cope through vigorous exercise, socialization, and play. This feels like a holistic problem.

A bunch of major transit develop in March, hopefully this signifies me back in the work place.

[Jim Eshelman]

These do look optimistic, especially the SLR. Some details of the Demi-SLR might result in disappointment, though probably more in personal-relating matters than success-prosperity (I do like the foreground transit of Jupiter to your Saturn).

I just noticed (in recalculating) that the February 2 chart isn't a full NSR. It's a 10-Day Solar (a 10-day chart). It is indeed quite a good chart with that mundane Moon-Jupiter opposition being only 0°03' wide and about 1° from the angles - and then in mundane T-square with Mercury on MC.

Well, that's dissapointing that it's not a full chart. Anyway, what's the difference. I thought that every SMR was an NSR.

The SMR (Solar Monthly Return) - a theory that turned out not to work - is a chart for every 30° along the zodiac. In your case, that would be for when Sun reaches 18°16'40" of each sign.

The NSR (Novienic Solar Return aka Ennead) is a chart for every 40° along the zodiac - one-ninth of the circle. In your case, these occur when Sun is at these longitudes:

18°16'40" Leo, Sagittarius, Aries
28°16'40" Virgo, Capricorn, Taurus
8°16'40" Scorpio, Pisces, Cancer

You can calculate these in Solar Fire just by asking for a 9th harmonic return: Click Advanced & Ingresses, click Options, and put 9 in the Harmonic field. This is divisible into four 10° quarters.

The good news for you is that, if anything, the quarters - that I've taken to calling "10-Day Solars" - seem more decisive than the full 40° chart, though they only last 10 days. The full NSR does seem to work for a full 40 days and 40 nights, but when I look back at major events it is pretty common to see the 10-Day Solar strikingly accurate and the 40-day chart more like so-so.

No job offers yet. I have another interview with a recruiter tomorrow, which I assume is part of a two part interview. I don't know what's going on. I thought I'd have a job interview but despite poring over books, new outfits, new hair, going through interview questions and multiple interviews themselves, nothing.

Hi Venus_Daily,

It is very tough out in the job market. I've been scanning the jobs for a few years now and have seen the job market shift in a way that I haven't heard mentioned elsewhere, but when I shifted I was able to get some good offers. The shift I have seen is that employers are not really looking for degrees and references but skills. You are a highly skilled person and you may want to highlight yourself by bullet pointing upfront your skills, especially skills you have mastered that maybe not just from your profession exactly but transferable skills like time management, communication and team building, resource management and flexibility and openness to change.
It's so hard some days to keep trying, to get up and get motivated it really is, but small little things done everyday add up.

[Venus_Daily]

Thank you, Veronica, yes, I have two more interviews scheduled this Wednesday. I'm so scared. Positives are Tr. Jupiter is about to be very active. It's actually exact Thursday, the day after square to N. Sat/SSR Jupiter. You're absolutely right, Veronica, I've bought a really nice self help book on nursing interviews and have watched YT videos. I still have May to contend with and some parts in the Summer. I'm going to spend my time learning everything I can. Some rough transits this month too.

[Venus_Daily]

Just got back from the interviews. One was at 1pm, the other at 2pm. I am currently undergoing a fortunate transit with Jupiter opposite N Sat in Aries and square solar Venus. I choked on the second one, the first one was barely 15 minutes. I guess the SSR truly does supercede nice transits. SLR is bad with Neptune barrly in the foreground and nothing else.

[Jim Eshelman]

I get for than that for your SLR from last night, including your Venus-Jupiter coming foreground; but I agree, I don't like the double Neptune. (At best, it's going to leave you wondering and doubting, even if there is a good result eventually, and that's unpleasant.)

Your March 25 SLR has a Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in the rising foreground and your own Mercury-Uranus to the fore.

For the April 21 SLR, if you don't already have a good result I suggest you put your attention on something else for four weeks (transiting Saturn to natal Sun-Saturn very closely angular) Or maybe get out of town for the SLR. But the March 25 chart is pretty optimistic, so this might just be working really hard.

Hey, Jim. I'm looking at my Mar 18 DSLR, and it only shows Mars exact on the Mc. There's really nothing for Apr 2nd (SLR) except Pluto barely in the foreground. The March 18th DSLR is pretty bad and has Sat opposite Sun as a class 1 aspect. I don't see anything for 3/25

[Venus_Daily]

I just also noticed, tr Sat is square SSR progressed Moon. Third pass in one form or another this year.4th pass in May. It is making me extremely depressed. Even though I haven't done anything wrong, I'm thinking of relinquishing my nursing license.

[Jim Eshelman]

...I don't see anything for 3/25

What in the world did I calculate? You're right: This is wrong. (I did six months of SLRs and six months of Demi-SLRs with TMSA to make that post and must have done something wrong. Thanks for catching it.)

In brief (recalculated), what's coming up is:

3/18 Demi-SLR: Transiting Mars. Natal Mercury, Mars, Uranus. Mars square Mars-Uranus closest. Careful of your temper and accident-prone conditions, but look for opportunities to take chances.

4/2 SLR: Natal Saturn is closest, though transiting Uranus-Pluto are more widely foreground and in exact mundane square. Not a great two weeks but likely some significant changes.

4/15 Demi-SLR: Not a big chart except... really neutral planets are REALLY close to the angles - Moon and Mercury - that are great for interviewing.

4/29 SLR: Transiting Mars, Saturn, Neptune is extremely harsh. Natal Neptune is also up, though with natal Jupiter. With three benefics foreground including a 0°20' Mars-Neptune (and more), I'd get out of town.

5/12 Demi-SLR: Unlucky two weeks. Transiting Saturn and Neptune. Natal Neptune. Neptune-Neptune aspect foreground. (I hope you got out of town for the 4/29.)

5/26 SLR: Transiting planets aren't too strong, with natal benefics (Venus and Jupiter) most angular. There IS an exact Neptune-Neptune square foreground though widely angular. This might tip your way a bit.

6/8 Demi-SLR: Mercury and Saturn are closest, plus natal Sun, Mars, and Uranus. Reading this from the aspects, it centers on Venus-Saturn themes.

It's not a good quarter. You have to try anyway.

3/18 Demi-SLR: Transiting Mars. Natal Mercury, Mars, Uranus. Mars square Mars-Uranus closest. Careful of your temper and accident-prone conditions, but look for opportunities to take chances.

4/2 SLR: Natal Saturn is closest, though transiting Uranus-Pluto are more widely foreground and in exact mundane square. Not a great two weeks but likely some significant changes.

4/15 Demi-SLR: Not a big chart except... really neutral planets are REALLY close to the angles - Moon and Mercury - that are great for interviewing.

4/29 SLR: Transiting Mars, Saturn, Neptune is extremely harsh. Natal Neptune is also up, though with natal Jupiter. With three benefics foreground including a 0°20' Mars-Neptune (and more), I'd get out of town.

5/12 Demi-SLR: Unlucky two weeks. Transiting Saturn and Neptune. Natal Neptune. Neptune-Neptune aspect foreground. (I hope you got out of town for the 4/29.)

5/26 SLR: Transiting planets aren't too strong, with natal benefics (Venus and Jupiter) most angular. There IS an exact Neptune-Neptune square foreground though widely angular. This might tip your way a bit.

6/8 Demi-SLR: Mercury and Saturn are closest, plus natal Sun, Mars, and Uranus. Reading this from the aspects, it centers on Venus-Saturn themes.

It's not a good quarter. You have to try anyway.

Jim, so I alread got 1 job offer/2 interviews. I had a feeling with so much Mc activity in successive returns. The only problem I'm worried about is these terrible Lunar Returns coming up. I'm going to take the reigns as much as possible, but it's a scary prospect.

I also wanted to point out how Solar Venus is conjunct quodition Mc for the day of the interview recirving a sq from tr Jupiter. I couldn't have timed it better if I tried.

Time if first interview: Natal Venus was exactly on the zenith at 1pm, Maflrch 6th.

At 2PM, my natal venus/moon paran was on the angles for the second interview.

[Venus_Daily]

Well, I got a job. Only the role is now PRN. They haven't done the background check just yet, which means, I'm probably screwed. Saturn is conjunct N. Sun a few days before my start date. I'll probably be grounded before I take off. Hence Mars conj Mc. in DSLR

[Jim Eshelman]

Congratulations1 (Be positive )

Well, more merit to the Jupiter =Sun/Moon Midpoint. I met a 54 year old man. We were intimate tonight. Nonlike actual sex, jist extremely intimate. I don't think anything will come from ot unfortunately, but it was jist amazng. We had a super deep connection. Being with him also made me realoze I have daddy issues. One thing he kept repeating was that the connection that he felt was jist instant. Most men, even uf I have not been intimate with them, even if I don't reciprocate their feelings have told me this. From young to old. I guess it's my moon/venus and Venus/Jupiter. My SLR has Mars in the Ic. Maybe that was it.

[SteveS]

[Jim Eshelman]

That sounds nice - and a nice expression of Jupiter transiting your Mo/Su midpoint.

Being with him also made me realoze I have daddy issues.

With a partile Sun-Saturn aspect? What would ever give you that idea? <vbg>

One thing he kept repeating was that the connection that he felt was jist instant. Most men, even uf I have not been intimate with them, even if I don't reciprocate their feelings have told me this. From young to old. I guess it's my moon/venus and Venus/Jupiter.

I think your Moon-Venus square has a component so purely saying, "This is woman! This is the essence of woman!" that it's unequivocal to anyone who desires a woman. I suppose it would be most felt by people who have key planets aspecting your Moon and Venus, but the essence is going to be there (obviously or subliminally) anyway.

So what' all this about a "terrible SSR"?

Transiting Uranus crossing your natal Eastpoint-a surely is part of all this - a sense of refreshment - it's only a few minutes away. And Jupiter is square your MC. Storing up pleasing refreshing things before Saturn makes its (faster than usual) opposition to your Sun in the near future! (Back to work!)

Transiting Venus squares your Mars-Uranus today, tomorrow, and the next day. Is there a follow-up planned?

[SteveS]

Venus, how do you think he may react if you asked for his birth info to possibly do a synastry? And then let Jim look at the synastry.

It's strange how in heterosexual men, these psychic urges are either supressed or sublimated.

Umm, he said he hopefully wants to see me again Sunday. I definitely agree, I think this SSR really made me think, "you have to grow up". It wasn't all too bad if I really put it into perspective. I know that JFK & Brad Pitt have Moon aspecting Venus. JFK strange enough was striken with a very similar disease to mine affecting malfunction of the adrenal glands. He always had this air of being the quintessential playboy.

While Brad Pitt always came across as this masculine yet demure, angelic beauty.

Venus, how do you think he may react if you asked for his birth info to possibly do a synastry? And then let Jim look at the synastry.

I was thinking about doing just that.

[Jim Eshelman]

Possible health/illness issues of a close-but-background Moon-Venus aspect (systems and possible consequences):

Hormones. Feminine reproductive biology (ova, menstruation, all fluids related to female repro-duction). Interaction of hindbrain and limbic system.

I do think this aspect was connected to Kennedy's Addison's disease. A paragraph from the book I'm working on:

Neptune, which has no close aspects, is at the Moon/Venus midpoint (0°42'). We expect this to be important because it is a direct midpoint, Neptune has no strong competing aspects, and a luminary is involved. Positively, it shows a romantic idealist who can enchant and move people. Negatively, it shows no control in the face of pleasure temptation with likely deception and dishonesty. Given his Addison’s disease, Ebertin scores a solid hit with, “weakened or abnormal gland-activity,” an exact description of Addison’s disease.

Well, I heard from him yesterday. Have yet to hear from him today. NSR drops Saturday 23rd featuring Moon Conjunct Sun opposite Venus/S@tutn conjunction. The most I can say? I had an amazing experience.

NSR was right. I haven't heard from him since Wednesday. I feel so dumb. I thought I had chosen to spend time with a nice guy, who was older, so less BS on the table. In fact, we discussed it ad nauseum. I just feel really dumb. It just reminds me of all my lacks and faults.

Steve, I did some searching. The internet us an amazing place, and I should have been a detective. Talk about fated encounters. He was born 9/6/1969. Don't have a birthtime, but some extremely interesting stuff. No wonder we, well at least I felt such a close connection. I think he did too, but there's some harsh synastry between us. The most amazing thing I noticed was his Mars is at 26degrees53 Scorpio. When this is rising, my Venus is exactly culminating.
I think Steve was very right about planets aspecting my natal Venus, ergo my Venus/ Moon complex creating an instant bond between myself and men in question.



My first boyfriend had A Venus/Neptune (Sc 26) exactly across this degree as well. He also has Uranus. Mercury, and Jupiter loosely over my natal Venus and square my Jupiter.

His Venus/Saturn partile square is aspecting my natal Saturn. Obviously, our birthdays practically beign on the same day is a huge synchtonicity.
My first boyfriend also had a A Venus/Saturn aspect, but it was obviouly involved with a T square to Neptune.


And when I tell you guys, this was a blind date. I absolutely mean it, I had no idea what this guy looked like, I just decided to let go and follow this weird emotional urge.
I wonder if Uranus is also linked to Synchronicity through positive chaos.

[Veronica]

You went on a blind date?!??!!
The momma bear in me is pitching a fit right now.
I'm gonna just say that since you had trust this was the right thing to do in that moment, and you reported having a great time, keep your faith and trust in yourself and keep on moving forward.
but please be careful and always tell someone where your going and when you'll be back. Your a wonderful person Venus, becoming more and more wonderful everyday.
Now check off "blind date" off your bucket list, and move on to your next bucket list item.

Venus, I can’t remember saying this about you, but at my age my memory is slipping . I can remember saying that the # 1 trouble spot I see in your Natal is your partile vargottama Mars-Uranus cnj in your 7H. The early astrological sages of India (definitely not moderns) would have started with this aspect in your Natal with possible discussions with you on your Natal, at least Mars since they did not know/use Uranus. You and have known each other for many years on this forum, and I can definitely see with the pains/hurts you have experience with certain relationships (7H), it’s your Mars-Uranus partile cnj in the 7H which is symbolizing these pains/hurts with relationships. But, in a sense, it’s this same aspect which attracts you to men and men to you. Hell, without any kind of male-female relationship there is not much excitement. So, as long as you are having fun keep on experiencing your male relationships. Just, always realize what you were born with---with that vargottama partile Mars-Uranus cnj in your 7H. I think synastry methodology is more important to you than most since it is primarily used for analyzing relationships, and Jim is one of the best I have seen with synastry charts.

[Jim Eshelman]

Without a birth time, we are a little limited, of course; but here is what is visible to me.

First, your Suns are conjunct - your birthdays are nearly the same. This has advantages and disadvantages but, mostly, I have never understood why this is common in marriages, though. What it means is that your egos occupy the same space. The good side is that you have a more instinctive understanding of each other and can have common goals or directions. The negative side is the sense that someone else is taking up the spot that the universe reserved for you to stand, i.e., ego conflict. (And two Leos no less!)

Your Moons are at least in opposite signs and may be opposite by degree. This is great! One of the best connections. Easy empathic connection and "feeling at home" with each other. People naturally gravitate toward and hang with people who have Mon in the same or opposite (and sometimes square) sign.

His Venus is near your IC. Not super close but close enough to count. Simple meaning: He honestly likes you and perhaps more. However, as you noted, he has a Venus-Saturn square at birth and this tunes into your Saturn. He likely has his own Venus issues to work out across his lifetime (could be several forms of, but I suspect rooted in unresolved parent stuff). For a Gemini Moon this is rough. And your Saturn then makes this even harder on him. Something in you brings out sadness in him or restimulates difficult emotional content.

the Saturn-Saturn isn't a big deal, but the fact that he has a natal Venus-Saturn and you add Saturn to his Venus is a BIG deal. Whatever is behind his Venus-Saturn, relating to you makes it unavoidable for him. Here, for general information is my usual interpretation for Venus-Saturn interchanges:

Work relationships thrive better than emotional ones. Saturn limits Venus' happiness or pleasure. Work (including creative partnerships) can prosper, work itself giving pleasure. Or Venus may sacrifice happiness from devotion, duty, or service, as in caretaking Saturn. Though rarely a close aspect for intimate relationships, it can bring commitment and perseverance that may secure happiness. Parent-child dynamics commonly play out. It may signify unrequited or lost love or friendship, which leaves a long, sad shadow on one or both lives. Venus especially may feel alone, excluded, or neglected. Saturn may resist closeness or find perverse pleasure in its own inadequacies, refusing solace or intimacy.

(By "Venus" I mean the Venus person - him - not you, Venus .)

Your Venus conjunct his Uranus could be fun: electrical, fresh, interesting, exciting. Not prone to stability or endurance (unless other factors say otherwise) but excellent for a fling and simply having fun on your own shared terms. One would expect him (Uranus) to bring renewal, rejuvenation, and excitement to your life, especially your pleasure. As I wrote in the synastry section, "Both feel fun-loving and experimental, perhaps flirtatious and a little wicked, and surely ready to ignore social convention and what others think of them." This is doubled up a bit with his Sun moderately square your Mars-Uranus.

Unless there is something keyed to his angles, I don't think this one was intended to last, but there are clearly honest, positive feelings of connection and affection and the chance for a fling. There is also some great emotional loss or wound in him that you somehow bring to the fore - e.g., perhaps you remind him of someone tied into that pain.

Either way, I think it's done. In my natal Q2 (3-19), Neptune was on the Nadar and SSR Q2, Uranus was one the Dsc semisquare Venus. I feel kind of empty now.

[Veronica]

I think that's a normal response considering that synastry and transits.
Hey, it's always good to try to meet new people and build relationships and for your part you were honest and authentic which is a tremendous thing, an excellent thing. His loss for not being at your level of personal integrity and maturity. Maybe someday his charts will have most excellent activity and he will learn common courtesy to do what he says or not say anything.
