Synastry Aspects: What Each Contact Means
A synastry chart is built from aspects - the angles one person's planets make to the other's. Each contact has its own flavor: some feel warm and familiar, others crackle with attraction and tension. These guides break down the specific aspects, one at a time, and what each tends to bring to a relationship. Remember that no single aspect decides anything - each is a pattern to read alongside the rest of the chart.

Pick the contact you spotted in your chart to read what it means, how it feels for both people, and how to work with it:
