Soulmate synastry
If you’re not already familiar with synastry and what a composite chart is, let me quickly explain. Synastry is an are of astrology dedicated to assessing romantic compatibility.
The tool used for assessing how well two people work together from an astrological vantage point is called a synastry chart, also referred to as a composite chart. This chart is composed by overlaying two individuals’ charts and fusing them together into one.
The synastry chart reveals where the two people’s planets fall in and how they interact with each other. These planetary interactions are called aspects, and they are not all created equal. Some aspects are considered harmonious, while others are considered discordant. Another way of expressing it is to calll them soft and hard aspects.
Planets that are in a soft aspect to each other have a positive and constructive flow and exchange of energy. Planets that are in hard aspects to each other have friction and tension between them. A bit of tension is not a bad thing in a romantic relationship, as it can inspire a level of passionate excitement and ensure that the dynamic never grows stale – but too much friction and the relationship is liable to be fraught with conflict and eventually fall to pieces.
The conjunction is neither a soft or a hard aspect – instead, it is incredibly powerful. When two planets are conjunct each other, their energies work as catalysts for each other. Each powerfully amplifies the energy and influence of the other. In the case of Mars conjunct Jupiter, it means that one partner’s Mars and the other’s Jupiter are perfectly aligned in the synastry chart in a way that powerfully amplifies the energy and influence of both in the relationship.
Other Mars-Jupiter aspects
Although it is the most potent an the primary one we are looking at here, it is important to know that there are other Mars-Jupiter aspects than Mars conjunct Jupiter. Let us take a quick look at what they are and what they mean.
Mars opposite Jupiter
Mars opposite Jupiter is a hard aspect. An opposition comes about if one person’s Mars is positioned directly opposite the other person’s Jupiter in the synastry chart.
Mars opposite Jupiter can be a rather destructive aspect, as the Mars person and the Jupiter person will constantly be pushing against each other energetically. What is healthy competition in the Mars conjunct Jupiter relationship could turn destructive in the Mars opposition Jupiter union.
Mars square Jupiter
Mars square Jupiter is another hard aspect. It comes about if one person’s Mars is positioned at a 90 degree angle to the other’s Jupiter.
Like the opposition, the square creates a sense of conflict and tension. In the Mars square Jupiter relationship, the fight for dominance is ongoing. The Mars person, in particular, may overreach and become so dominant in the relationship that barely any space is left for the Jupiter person.
Mars sextile Jupiter
Mars sextile Jupiter is a soft, harmonious aspect. It occurs if one partner’s Mars is positioned at a 60 degree angle to the other partner’s Jupiter.
Sextiles are known to ensure an uplifting and healthy exchange of energy between planets, and in the case of Mars sextile Jupiter, this would also be the case.
Mars trine Jupiter
Finally among the Mars and Jupiter aspects we will be looking at here we have Mars trine Jupiter. A trine happens when two planets – in this case Mars and Jupiter – are angled at 120 degrees to each other.
The trine shares many similarities to the sextile, but here the positive energetic exchange between the planets needs to be helped along by a little more conscious effort.
