I know squares indicate incompatibility in a relationship (synastry chart) but what if...

My Venus in Leo Square his Scorpio Venus
yet my venus is in 8th house natally (Scorpio)

Also My moon in Aqua and his in Taurus
yet my moon is in 2nd house (Taurus)

Would that help overcome incompatibility a little?

Moon in 2nd and Moon in Taurus have affinity with each other.

now for the actual aspect, the square

well....squares aren't necessarily bad as a little bit of friction,conflict will make things interesting

but

if the squares involve stressful planetary geometry like t-squares and grand crosses, they can be very challenging.

Please have a look at this article -- it should provide some insight on your question: http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/016795.html

My answer is no, not necessarily.

Squares are tensions, areas where you have to find a compromise. Not necessarily incompatibility. Along with all testing aspects they reflect the checks and balances in relationships. We all need them, as none of us are perfect.

Little bit of friction especially in Venus can generate a lot of excitement.

Also, squares between personal planets may be easier to deal with than a square between Moon and Pluto or Saturn or Uranus for example.

Of course if one person has an Aquarius-Moon she or he might not be so shocked about a Uranus square to her Moon.

I love a challenge (stellium in Aries!) and so am kept on my toes with squares

May l ask what you mean please by

"moon in 2nd and moon in Taurus have an affinity"?

so like, my b/f has moon in 1st house and my moon is in Aries, AND my moon is in my 9th house and his moon is in Sagittarius (making a DW) does that mean the affinity is one of similar vibe?

So in your example, a 1st house moon and Aries moon would have this commoness; as will a 9th house moon and Sag moon.

my moon is in Taurus and venus in Scorpio and right now im dating a guy whos Sun squares them in Leo to an exact degree and his Venus is in Leo as well squared by his mars in Scorpio... there is not only affinity here, but a lot of compatibility.

we never fight, we have excellent understanding of each other. i dont notice his Leo traits getting to me _at all_.. also all his Leo planets are in the 2nd house so there's a connector right there

overall- squares are not bad, esp if you already have them yourself.

in my personal life, i find myself more attracted to "fixed axis" people than anyone else.. a stellium Aquarius, a stellium Leo, a guy with Asc in Scorpio and Pluto on the Asc and on the Scorpio moon.

also.. side note.. this doesnt really work for your placements, but i think midpts may have something to do with it here.. the midpt of my moon-venus opposition is leo/aqua and of course so many personal planets of the ones i love fall here.. so i believe that these individuals really help balance me and help me see beyond the see-saw effect and onto something different entirely.
