FAQ
+Are Aries and Cancer a good match?
A union of opposite programs. The base sign score is 45%. This is a blend of Fire and Water; the outcome depends on both partners' full charts.
+What would full synastry add for this pair?
Overlaying two birth charts: how your Moons connect (home and emotions), Venus and Mars (attraction), Saturn (longevity). Synastry often changes the conclusion drawn from signs alone.
+The sign match doesn't fit my experience. Why?
The Sun sign is 1 of 10 planets. Ascendants, Moons and personal planets can completely override the Sun-sign blend — which is exactly what a full-chart reading shows.
