Saturn In Synastry

saturn in synastry

house overlays

i want to preface this with no relationship is doomed because of saturn aspects or overlays. saturn is the planet of discipline, restriction, responsibility, structure, gained wisdom, and rigidity. it is often believed that it is the paternal energy of the chart. while saturn overlays are generally challenging due to saturn’s nature, there are positives to each and every house overlay and i hope that comes through here! i also want to note that saturn is a social planet. because of this, you are likely to encounter many people that have the same saturn sign as you and thus many times people’s saturn will fall in the same house as your saturn. x

1st: The Saturn person affects how the house person acts in general, but especially in public settings. The Saturn person makes a strong impression here, with the house person perhaps questioning their identity or feeling insecure about their identity around the Saturn person. The house person is inexplicably drawn to the strong presence of Saturn, but may also feel restrained frequently. There’s a general desire to impress Saturn.

2nd: The Saturn person influences the house persons spending habits, style, and comfort zone. There’s a strong possibility that the house person feels restrained by Saturn, perhaps being ashamed of how they spend their money, dress, or like to spend their downtime. They may try much harder in Saturn’s presence, working harder on these subjects to please Saturn. There’s a chance for rigidity in physical encounters or strong submissive (house person) and dominance (saturn) themes. 

3rd: The house person is likely to question their words in regards to the Saturn person more. While in social settings together, texting, or talking one-on-one, the house person may stumble over their words or be less inclined to speak their mind readily. There is a sense that the Saturn person is a master with their words and a desire to not disappoint them. Communication between the two is taken very seriously and honesty is prioritized (sometimes above feelings). 

4th: The house person here can feel judged for their inner world, which can be especially difficult. Saturn is being exposed to the house persons safe space and with their general rigidity, the house person can feel a certain sense of rejection. Saturn here can add a level of stability to the house persons life, though. Saturn could help to ground the house person positively. On the flip side, they may stifle some of the more raw and sensitive parts of the house person. 

5th: The struggle here can be within lightheartedness. We have the house of lightheartedness and creativity meeting the planet of restriction, structure, and control. The house person is likely to resist the energy of the Saturn person often. The house person is likely to take offense to signs of Saturn’s disapproval in their land of fun - whatever that looks like. There can be open conflict. However, Saturn’s judgment aside, Saturn can help the house person gain further mastery over their interests by encouraging practice and diligence. Saturn may feel here like a parent to impress.

6th: Saturn is a bit omnipresent in domestic life together here. Saturn may be nit-picky over the house person’s habits, hygiene, and or schedule. Saturn may have a tendency to be naggy. There’s also potential for the Saturn person to alter how the house person goes about their daily routine; perhaps the house person will adapt Saturn’s seemingly tried and true methods. The house person may have to willing to defend their personal habits as just that - personal. 

7th: The challenge of this overlay is largely based on how the house person is. Do they naturally embody Saturnian traits or seek these traits out of partner? If yes, this overlay will not be as tense. However, if the house person is not naturally very Saturnian or someone who seeks out the heavier more serious Saturn-esque partners, this can be a bit more difficult. The pair are likely to encounter many issues in how they approach the relationship and Saturn can weigh heavy. However, while challenging, this overlay can be a huge indicator of longevity in one on one relationships. The pair are likely to be rather loyal to each other and pulled to remain together. Much growth and wisdom can be gained from one another.

8th: Similar to the fourth house, this overlay can be an especially raw one. The eighth house is another core part of our rich inner world, one we arguably protect more than our 4th house, and Saturn can make us feel rather exposed here. The Saturn person is likely to make the house person feel under scrutiny/watch over their secrets, inner world, and fantasies. There may be a constant fear of deep exposure. Opening up to Saturn can be rather difficult, but bring true intimacy. 

9th: The house person is likely to openly rebel from Saturn’s energy when this overlay occurs. When it comes to philosophy, spirituality, travel, and free thought, the house person is likely to find Saturn way too conservative and there can be a great deal of disagreement. Ultimately, Saturn pushes the house person to provide more evidence and make their arguments more airtight, even if it’s aggravating to the house person. 

10th: Saturn is associated with the 10th house, so the house person may take Saturn’s presence the easiest here. The house person is already striving for success in this area and Saturn can help mobilize this. However, since the house person is likely to be very hard on themselves in this area of life, Saturn needs to be careful not to add extra pressure that isn’t needed. The two can work well to reach success and can be competitive with each other. The need to impress can be especially pronounced. 

11th: Similar to the 9th house, this house person can get intellectually frustrated by Saturn’s presence, but there is a charming push-and-pull that leads to true growth. Saturn is the traditional ruler of Aquarius, the associated sign of the 11th house, so like the 10th house, the house person is likely to handle the presence relatively well. Saturn may be critical of friendships and may bring the house person to be more selective in friendships and in general. 

12th: The Saturn presence here can be quickly internalized and shot into the subconscious of the house person. Therefore, Saturn’s criticism and judgmental opinions can be especially hurtful and touch a deep part of the house person. Here, the Saturn person may help to bring 12th house themes to the surface and force conversation about deep seated needs and desires, but it won’t be easy and similar to the 8th house, the fear of emotional judgment is heightened. Saturn needs to watch their judgment here. There’s a karmic lesson to be had in which both parties will need to fully understand the steady growth and strength of Saturn AND the intuitive healing of the 12th house. 

People with Moon in the 3rd House need communication just like fish needs  water. No matter in what sign their Moon is. They enjoy talking with people and needs it to feel physically better. When they feel they can’t trust someone and truly open up and share their problems it makes them very anxious. They will try to detach themeselves from emotions to ease unpleasant heaviness in their chest but it will just make them more miserable. They may do this or they may do the exact opposite and they may start sharing their personal stuff with complete strangers just to get this off their hearts. They are very curious people and very smart. They truly enjoy learning new things but they have little patience for traditional system of learning. They are jack of all trades. They like to travel and see new places, they need to change their place a lot, they like to keep it moving. They somehow know all the gossips and people eagerly share information with them. They like to debate, especially with their sibilings (or parents if they are an only child). They enjoy writing and are usually really good at it. They like getting new information, they like knowledge and they need to feel that they are smart and that none question that. They are versatile, changeable and cunning. They feel truly young at heart and they really are.

ASTROLOGY: who are you attracted to?

Most people think attraction has to do with sun sign. Everyone’s heard: “If you’re an Aquarius, date a Gemini or a Libra!” This is due to the fact that mainstream astrology does not consider other factors besides your sun sign, and most people believe this. But actually, this is not true, because most of the time sun-sun compatibility has little importance - no more than giving a general vibe that the relationship would give off. Instead, we should really focus on connecting energies between two charts. Read my post here about how compatibility really works.

Here are some common connections that indicate attraction between two people. It says that they must be in the “same sign”, but note that if the two placements are conjunct the bond is even more powerful.

SUN/MOON - 1st person’s sun in the same sign as the 2nd person’s moon:

both people feel like they’ve found their other half

the moon person looks up to the sun person

the sun person helps the moon person shine

there is an ease with each other that is very natural

both people “make sense” to each other

both have a similar attitude towards life

SUN/ASCENDANT - 1st person’s sun in the same sign as the 2nd person’s ascendant:

the two people are very similar

there are many common interests

they both view life in a similar way

the sun person likes the energy that the ascendant person naturally gives off

the ascendant person feels like they can be themselves with the sun person

self-expression is easy and harmonious together

MOON/MOON - having the same moon sign: 

this is a powerful, soulmate-like relationship

both people feel a sense of security

the other person feels “familiar” somehow

sharing feelings is easy and natural

both are very sensitive to each other’s feelings and needs

there is an intense emotional bond, sometimes overwhelmingly powerful

one can read the other like a book

MOON/ASCENDANT - 1st person’s moon in the same sign as the 2nd person’s ascendant:

both people feel understood by each other

the moon person feels at ease expressing their feelings

the ascendant person feels understood by the moon person

there is a natural emotional connection

both are aware of and receptive to the other’s feelings

ASCENDANT/ASCENDANT - having the same ascendant sign:

both people feel very comfortable with each other

both people sense a similarity in the way that they project themselves to the world

both have many shared values and similar attitudes

both are attracted to the other’s self-expression

SUN/VENUS - 1st person’s sun in the same sign as the 2nd person’s venus: 

the sun person is the venus person’s “type”

the sun person feeds off of the venus person’s love

both people give and receive much affection

the venus person values everything the sun person represents

the sun person appreciates the venus person’s expression

MOON/VENUS - 1st person’s moon in the same sign as the 2nd person’s venus:

the venus person makes the moon person feel comfortable

both care a lot for each other

both share a lot of values when it comes to a relationship

ASCENDANT/VENUS - 1st person’s ascendant in the same sign as the 2nd person’s venus:

the ascendant person embodies what the venus person finds attractive

the ascendant person appreciates the love the venus person gives

both are sensitives to each other’s needs and want to please each other

VENUS/VENUS - having the same venus sign:

both people are magnetically drawn to each other

there is an appreciation for each other’s personal style/aesthetic

both sense a similarity in each other’s romantic expression

both naturally understand each other’s romantic needs and satisfy them

VENUS/MARS - 1st person’s venus in the same sign as the 2nd person’s mars:

there is a sense of romantic chemistry

the venus person is attracted to how the mars person asserts him/herself

the mars person is attracted to the venus person’s charm and style

These are not the only indicators of attraction (there are many more involving asteroids or other points), but they are the most common ones involving personal planets. And also, having any of these connections does not guarantee a relationship will work out - they just give an indication of a strong connection between two people. There are both good AND bad sides to each of these connections, but here I’m showing the more positive side (meaning the reasons WHY you would feel the attraction in the first place). Having too many of these could potentially make a relationship overwhelming, while having only one might not be enough to keep a relationship going. It’s all about balance. :)

Synastry House Overlays-Moon in the houses

First House-

There is safe environment feeling for someone’s moon when in another person’s first house. Moon person feels a sense of security, like they are able to put their guard down around the house partner. A sense that house partner really gets them and they assume they feel the same. Moon person openness helps house partner with their sensitive side and feels moved by the Moon person. Both partners are able to pick up on each other’s moods easily as they are sensitive to each other as well and most of the time can affect each other. The house person’s self-expression can strongly have an affect on the moon partner. 

Second House-

Second house synastry brings a value feeling of emotional satisfaction for the Moon person when in someone’s second house rather a romantic one. House person senses that there is something that the Moon partner wants, making them feel a little anxious and in a reaction will act out. The Moon wants to provide security and the house partner tries to be helpful an generous. There is a chance of jealousy and possessiveness occurring with this overlay as Venus naturally rules the second house. This is best for a business related relationship and not the best romantic synastry but can be managed as both partner can see that there is tangible value. 

Third House-

Someone’s moon in the third house brings an atmosphere of cooperation and friendliness or sibling like feel. The Moon person sees and admires how the house partner goes about their life, handling things a certain way, and to the Moon it just feels right. Emotional reactions of the Moon person however can have a huge influence on the house partner. House person enjoys the Moon partner’s company and admires their intelligence and feels like they can chat about anything and can often find themselves thinking about the Moon partner. There is good communication between the two, even similar ways of thinking, to the point where it feels like there is a psychic connection. 

Fourth House-

Having someone’s Moon in the fourth house can bring a love/hate type of relationship. Even though there can be a deep bond between the two, there is also a competitive nature to them. A feeling of being home with each other here for these people, house partner may be able to nurture Moon person and be able to provide a warm environment. Moon person feels the need to establish some sort of authority over the house partner. There is an intensity that comes with this synastry that most people cannot handle as the two may want to spend a lot of time together, if this is a romantic connection the two may move in quickly together. Some believe this is a past life connection.

Fifth House-

Moon in the fifth house brings a fun, loving, pleasureful type of energy to any relationship. The house person arouses something in the Moon partner strongly, making the Moon partner feel like the house person is truly an amazing human being and be comfortable enough to put down their guard. This give the house partner a flattered feeling and a boost in pride when receiving attention from Moon person, giving back warmth and love. House person may also find themselves enjoying even the emotional parts of this relationship along with the happier parts. Both partner stimulates the creativity in each other, if a romantic there may be even lots of talks of having children or if one is already a parent, the other partner may get along very well with the children.

Sixth House-

There is a constant need to always try and help one another with Moon sixth house overlay, which would make this a good overlay for work relationships or service type. Moon person may have a strange feeling about the house partner, feelings of either they are obligated to always be helping the house partner or that the house partner is a burden to the Moon person. The house person may have a slight sense of this but continues on with their life anyways, they may even want to help the Moon partner help organize their life in a better way somehow. There is a risk of Moon person becoming a martyr type in this overlay.

Seventh House-

A sense of acceptance and balance can be felt by the Moon person in this house synastry. The Moon person feels secure around the house partner and also feels like there is no judgement coming from them. House person just enjoys all the eccentric things about the Moon partner and loves to be there for them in some form of support. For both, being together just feels natural like all things are balanced and can feel like you two really mesh well together and probably spend all their free time with each other. There can be a romantic attraction, especially if the moon is conjunct with the house person’s DC, but this can also be great for a business partnership.

Eighth House-

There is a deep reach into the Moon person’s psyche when it lands in someone’s eighth house, a reach so far that the house partner can stir up the most dark and hidden part of the Moon person’s subconscious, Moon person may even crave things that most people won’t put up with. Along with being able to arouse something in the Moon partner, the house person senses the intensiveness and willing to go down into the depths with the Moon partner no matter what comes for them. There is a deep attraction and an intense urge that’s almost like a hunger for each other, this synastry could make intense closet lovers or worse enemies. 

Ninth House-

An expansive feeling in this synastry for both people, being able to learn from each other in so many different ways. Both the house person and Moon partner have similar views on many subjects and an appreciation for each other on a integral level. The Moon person idealizes the house partner, seeing them as brilliant or an inspiration for life putting them on this pedestal. There may even be a feeling like the house partner is out of the league, and that can be stretched to the idea of out of reach as in long-distance, traveling may play a part in this relationship. House person is inspired by Moon partner to become a better person, so much that it may come to a point where the house person absolutely needs the Moon partner and becomes emotionally dependent on them. 

Tenth House-

When someone’s Moon lands in another’s tenth house, a great amount of admiration occurs. House person helps provide security and a sense of status for the Moon partner. Moon person may in some way promote the house partner and help them feel confident and help with their career. There isn’t a lot of emotional closeness here, if badly aspected, Moon person may get this uneasy feeling about the house partner as if they are too pompous and it doesn’t sit well with the Moon person. This synastry is great for work related relationships rather than a romantic one but not impossible as there is a want for one or the other to have their partner as a Trophy Wife/Husband.

Eleventh House-

One of the best synastry to have for friends, love, or both. Both people here can feel like their true self when with each other and be able to share their feelings safely, they can almost feel like they have known each other forever. There is support and chances are there are several mutual friends between the two. An instinctive at ease feeling for the Moon person happens when they are around the house partner. Moon can see the house partner as maybe their ‘dream’ guy or girl, feeling like the house person is the answer to all their hopes and dreams. House partner will help Moon person expand their social horizons and may be the one who always has a place to hang or have get togethers. This house overlay is a pretty calm one and can calm down negative aspects in charts. 

Twelfth House-

There is a mutual compassion for each other when it comes to twelfth house, this overlay can bring these people to feel like there is a psychic connection and they are soulmates. There is a feeling for one or both that the two were fated with each other, almost karmic. House person may find themselves dreaming about Moon partner, while the Moon helps identify things that lie hidden to the house person that may be highly beneficial. But there needs to be some cautiousness when it comes to the twelfth house, if badly aspected there can be a lack of trust between them with no real purpose. Moon person feels like they cannot figure out the house partner, like they are hiding something, even if the house partner isn’t. This makes the house person suspicious and wonders why the Moon partner acts like that and in result may end up playing games with each other and turn into enemies. This is not a simple or easy synastry.
