Another thing that matters a lot: Saturn in long-term marital relationships is not just an aspect, it's an entire theme. It usually is richly aspected; the aspects are either predominant (major theme; Saturn to luminaries, angles, nodes, Venus or Mars is a major theme) or many. That's why you usually see at least one hard + one soft aspect.
I have noticed Saturn in multiples in many synastries (I've done somewhere around 60 in the last 3 months), though certainly not all (one hard aspect seems to be enough many times), but it's oftentimes one Saturn aspect to a personal planet and one or more to an outer planet, or a neutral planet like Mercury or Jupiter. It's not always one hard to a personal planet, and one soft to a personal planet. I don't know if this dynamic would count in the theme.

Faith, do you and your husband have any Neptune in your synastry mix?

My Neptune is widely conjunct his Saturn, almost 5 degrees. His Neptune is square my Saturn. In composite we have a Mercury-NN-Neptune conjunction in Scorpio, part of a tight kite formation that includes Cancer Mars-Juno-ASC, Virgo Pluto-Uranus, and Chiron in Pisces at the apex, tightly conjunct my moon. If you are looking for longevity, kites and other rigid geometric structures in the composite can help.  Not that I knew anything beyond sun sign astrology when I got married...it's just weird how symmetrical and fitting our charts are, and how we sensed that enough to get engaged after one date. I mean it looked haphazard and crazy to others but it made perfect, orderly sense to us. IP: Logged |

I posted that little list to underline my observation that in important love stories/marital couples, there usually is at least one aspect from Saturn to Sun and/or Moon, in particular. Usually more than one. Even wider, but it still IS there which is very interesting, IMO. There are many people who come to an astrologer and say: "we have Moon sq Saturn, how awful, what are we gonna do?" whilst these aspects are actually common and a very good sign.IP: Logged |

She's exactly right about softer synastry aspects needing multiples usually to equal the effect of a conjunction, for example.In synastry, [b]the strongest bonds are created by parallels and conjunctions. Squares, oppositions, and parallels also. However, the principle goes the other way with the latter group if it is Mars-Saturn, Saturn-Pluto. For many people those drive you away instead of enhancing bonding between people. [/B]
I agree so much with this. I have 9 squares with my S.O. and several conjunctions as well. It is the closest and most intimate relationship I have ever had. There are certain squares and conjunctions I really want, like those to Jupiter and Venus. But it depends on the planets involved. Moon-moon squares or any hard aspect (including the conjunction) between Mars and Saturn or Mars and Pluto I think can push people away if they escalate into violence or verbal abuse. I agree with CafeAstrology's analysis to take care with that aspect (Mars/Saturn). IP: Logged |

That's interesting. I see it more in terms of the gift of being in a loving union with someone, and being grateful for having the time together, but I don't see the separation that comes with death as a tragedy, because I don't see the connection as ending when the person leaves their body and this world.

Faith, thank you for weighing in! I haven't read the book yet but what I have read gave me the impression they had a very deep love for each other, even though he probably wasn't easy to live with at times. Also, thanks! for your comments on Venus-Saturn and sharing the synastry aspects with your husband. I have similar ones with my partner, so I really appreciate your perspective being further down the road.  IP: Logged |

I agree I have the hard aspect in my synastry too so it was really insightful. IP: Logged |

Thank you, LeeLoo for doing this. This is OT, but do you include biquintiles in synastry or just major aspects? IP: Logged |

The key is that Saturn aspects not overwhelm the Venus and Jupiter aspects in a relational synastry. The key in long-term relationships may not be the synastry as much as the work both people are willing to put into it. I'm assuming that everyone wants a happy, long-lasting relationship. My parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this month. Their synastry is practically devoid of Jupiter interaspects and heavy in Saturn. However, they have lots of 'hard' aspects involving Asc/Moon/Sun, etc. I admire their commitment, but I never wanted a relationship like theirs the way I experienced it or view it now. Therefore, I have a relationship with looser bonds in synastry, more Venus, Jupiter, less Saturn. Its still work. The work comes from the effort to overcome human ego and know clearly your needs in the direct face of anothers' ego and real human needs. ------------------

LeeLoo, turns out Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn also have Venus square Saturn at 0 degrees. So do Mark Hildreth and Kristen Kreuk, they've been together since 2004. In both cases, as someone said, Saturn is a theme. They have other Saturn aspects too (all squares).IP: Logged |

I can see the wisdom here. Uranus helps a lot too, I think, to also make things fun and keep it from being too heavy. IP: Logged |
