Is there such a thing as Sign compatibility? | “Absolutely — and it’s called Synastry. But it’s more than just your Star Sign (or Sun Sign) — we each have entire Birth Charts that are unique to us! There’s your Rising Sign and Moon Sign, and all other placements in your chart. A quick way to check compatibility is by looking at the Elements in both of your Charts, and how they interact. Fire and Air Signs, being fast-moving and dynamic, tend to harmonise well, making collaboration effortless, but Water and Earth Signs are more sensitive and move at a slower pace, so they can understand each other's energies more easily. And if you mix contrasting elements, like Fire and Water — well, that could lead to some frustrating differences — too fast for one and too slow for the other!” | Does Synastry work for platonic relationships, like friendships? | “Definitely, yes! Understanding the Astrological dynamics of any type of relationship can provide valuable insights into the similarities and differences in your personalities. Perhaps you share a similar communication style, like both having Mercury in a chatty Air Sign. Or you might connect on a more sentimental level, with your Moons ruled by Water Signs, so you seek connection through similar emotional needs.” | What should I look for in my Chart for friendships? | “As a traditional Astrologer, I explore the placements within your 3rd and 11th Houses to reveal insights into the dynamics of your friendships, as well as your all-important Rising Sign. This can show what you’re like as a friend, how important friendships are to you, whether it’s easy (or more challenging) for you to maintain friendships, and what you seek in those relationships. There are so many nuances!” |
