The Royal Wedding

Synastry astrology chart for William and Kate, Royal Wedding, Marriage Horoscope. The wedding date has been set! The marriage of the royal couple is on April 29 2011, start time 11:00 am, Westminster Abbey. In this post, Jamie looks at the horoscope for the wedding ceremony and the aspects to William and Kate’s Charts, then Marina looks at the synastry between the royal couple. THE WEDDING The Sun trine Pluto is favorable indicating the power of this couple, obviously they have a magnetically attractive quality. The Moon is tightly square the Lunar Nodes so relationships between families may be a cause of tension, especially among the women. Communication in the marriage is ruled by Mercury, and this is opposite Saturn so there is some difficulty here in fully expressing what’s on their minds. An inability to be totally open and honest about their concerns could lead to arguments or periods of annoying silence. Venus is love and she is not too happy in this chart. Like Mercury, she is opposite Saturn so there may be restriction in expressing love and affection in the marriage. Venus is also square Pluto bringing the possibility of these restricted affections causing a major problem. These square and oppositions […]

Soul Points in Synastry: The Vertex versus the Nodes (Part Two)

But in practice, these two are very different, with a […]

Full Speed Into the Solstice

All is working again (finally–phew!) so we are set to go ahead into the winter season, my favorite time of year. The ‘darkening’ time of year never lasts long enough for me–I always wonder if other Twelfth House types feel the same. We may be more comfortable with the closing of cycles. I am now […]

Synastry Studies: Conjunctions–Sacred Marriage or Train Wreck?

I think, of all the aspects in synastry, the most misinterpreted is the conjunction. It’s easy to understand why. There’s something romantic about a conjunction, something seductive. Two (or more, sometimes) become one. How lovely. There is a basic archetype at work here, the reconciliation of differing energies, the merging of two separate forces. On […]
