Synastry and Relationship Astrology

No relationship technique can replace consent, observed conduct, communication, safety assessment, or the absent person’s privacy. Scope is explicit.

Overview

A Sun–B Moon conjunction is 2°; B Saturn is audited separately before any relationship synthesis. This is the worked result for Synastry and Relationship Astrology; it remains conditional and does not turn geometry or timing into a verdict. The comparison method is explicit: Begin with two intact natal charts, preserve A-to-B direction, audit data quality, and move to a constructed relationship chart only after naming its formula.

Definition and exact scope

Fourteen guides distinguish directional synastry, overlays, midpoint and Davison constructions, planet-specific contacts, score limits, and uncertain birth time.

Calculation or decision rule

Begin with two intact natal charts, preserve A-to-B direction, audit data quality, and move to a constructed relationship chart only after naming its formula. The receipt retains the chosen input record, reference frame, tolerance, and version, then identifies the first step where an independent recalculation diverges.

Worked case and illustrative near miss

chart A ☉ 14°♉; chart B ☽ 16°♉ and ♄ 15°♒; major-aspect orb table attached. A Sun–B Moon conjunction is 2°; B Saturn is audited separately before any relationship synthesis.

Illustrative near miss; does not qualify: Turning one 2° conjunction into a verdict about the whole relationship while ignoring both natal charts.

School, model, and context variants

No relationship technique can replace consent, observed conduct, communication, safety assessment, or the absent person’s privacy.

Product, safety, and verification boundary

OpenFate connects Synastry and Relationship Astrology only to the two-chart compatibility flow and natal evidence; it does not score destiny or guarantee a relationship result. Synastry and Relationship Astrology preserves contrary observations and uncertainty. It cannot replace consent, professional help, location research, or a person’s account.
