Composite Chart: Sun - Moon Aspects


When the composite Sun is conjunct composite Moon: 


You complement one another and bring about a sense of balance and wholeness in each other's lives. There is a deep and abiding attraction between you, and together you will both feel very unified and more complete than you feel singly. Over time you will begin to feel almost a part of one another.

An important aspect of your purpose together is to bring something new into the world - either physical offspring or "brain children", or both. You will be quite fruitful as a couple. A possible challenge of this partnership is that you may be so fused together that there is an inability to be objective about your life together. Reactions are spontaneous and not very conscious.

 

When the composite Sun is opposition composite Moon: 


Initially there will be a great feeling of excitement and attraction between you, and simultaneously a strong aversion to one another and a resistance to coming together. Differences in upbringing, tastes, temperaments, and personal habits (among other things) stand between you - and yet draw you together also, because you both find the differences energizing. Each of you has something the other wants but is not truly comfortable with. There will always be an intense sense of polarity between you, a dynamic tension. Frequent separations or spaces in your togetherness are necessary to sustain this relationship, yet you will also find yourselves continually returning. Once joined, it will be next to impossible to ever completely escape one another. This is a binding partnership that involves much give and take and plenty to learn from each other, as long as you avoid getting into the pitfall of defensiveness.

 

When the composite Sun is square composite Moon: 


There is a basic and undeniable tension between the two of you that will be both creative and irritating at different times in your relationship! It is apt to manifest itself in small ways, often in matters of personal comfort (such as the temperature each one prefers the thermostat set to, or a dislike for one another's domestic habits), but also in more profound ways, for instance: an inability to accept the other's family or familial background and traditions. Some resistance to your relationship by either or both of your families or old circle of friends can also be expected, at least initially. A marked degree of unease exists between the two of you on these subtle issues and this prevents you both from totally submerging yourselves into this relationship. In numerous subtle ways you are constantly reminded of your "otherness" and differences from one another, and you'll be both fascinated and frustrated by these fundamental differences.

This aspect is a binding one in many ways. You are drawn to be together on a very basic level. At the outset, you are bound to have fun with your differences, perhaps teasing one another about them. However, the closer you get, there can be a tendency for these differences to come up in arguments as well. Each of you should try to avoid getting yourselves in a defensive/offensive frame of mind - a state where you feel the need to defend your lifestyle and opinions by putting down your partner's.

One of the purposes of your relationship is to challenge each of you to encounter (and even embrace) attitudes and aspects of life which your partner displays, and which are essentially very foreign to you.

 

When the composite Sun is trine composite Moon: 


Overall, a feeling of harmony, flow, mutual acceptance and supportiveness characterizes your relationship. You simply dovetail very naturally together and neither of you feels that you have to sacrifice too much of yourself to be together. You may take this ease for granted, as your partnership or friendship "just happened" without a great deal of effort or even intention on your parts. You complement and complete one another in ways that are both gratifying emotionally and also helpful to you in meeting challenges and struggles you encounter outside of your relationship. Honoring and developing the feeling of soul kinship that you have with one another is an important purpose in your relationship. This is one of the better aspects to have in a composite chart.

 

When the composite Sun is sextile composite Moon: 


Whatever else transpires in your relationship, an underlying sense of equality and true friendship sustains the two of you. Ultimately, you are friends as much as or more than anything else. You will give and receive, depend on and be depended upon, teach and learn from one another in equal measure.

Some especially fortunate or fortuitous events early on in your relationship will get you off to a good start.

 

When the composite Sun is quincunx composite Moon: 


There is an ongoing sense of friction between you. One or the other will continually be putting on the brakes or preventing the two of you from proceeding full speed ahead in your joint ventures. An unexpected, unplanned for, unintentional burden (financial, health, or otherwise) which one of you brings into the relationship may consume a tremendous amount of your energies. A feeling of being "stuck" or even one of failure may arise. Certainly overcoming or enduring these difficulties is a part of the challenge and reason for your coming together.
