The Composite Chart is the only chart that offers you a snapshot of any relationship, outside of time an space. You put two people together as one, and you can see the beginning, the middle & the end, then back to the beginning, again. The Degrees of each planet have their own energy and are VERY USEFUL in desciphering the longevity, interest in both parties, and attraction between two people inside this type of chart. Below you can read each planet in your chart by these degree explanation. If the planet is Venus or Mars, you would see this in yourself about the significant person in your life, or vice versa. If it is any other planet you would read this about each other as one entity. 

If you want to find your Composite chart, go to Astro.com. In the Extended Chart Selection, underneath “chart type” select Composite Chart Midpoint-method”. Put the two partners (relationship between ANY two people, not just romantic) into the Birth Data section.

FIRST DECAN

0: Exhilarating nerves and excitement to get to know the significant person, or each other. This is the stun to kill degree, it can’t be balanced, move slowly or go quietly after it experiences it. It’s all or nothing.
1: Vibrant enthusiasm for the significant person, or for each other.
2: Emotional love and confusion about where you stand with the significant, or each other.
3: Juvenile optimism about the relationship and the significant person.
4: Aggressive desire to build a home with the significant person, or with each other.
5: Cute sense of wonder about where this relationship could go, and a desire to know the significant person, but feeling a little out of your league.
6: Nurturing affection for the significant person, or for each other, also fear of abandonment.
7: Delusions, or full on fantasy about what this relationship could be. The other degrees need to be more grounded for you, the significant person, or each other in order for this to work.
8: Hardships arise that you feel willing to face with the other, in order to create stability for the significant person or each other.
9: The perfect degree of the sign you are in. Knows you don’t know everything about the significant person, or each other, but you do know that you understand the energy as it lies, and want to receive more of it.

 

SECOND DECAN

10: Excitement and enthusiasm that are as stable as any degree that really wants to experience this relationship.
11: Twin energy, excited to be a part of the relationship/composite chart in general, it knows both sides are on the same page, however does need to practice stability, because it can feel too optimistic and forget that relationships involve two people and we are all bound to grow apart and back together, or move around.
12: Not confused nor deterred by the significant person or the relationship, but has a healthy dose of knowledge about the union (or sign it’s in) and also a strong desire to learn more, which carries on forever.
13: Lucky number 13, this is the goddess Lilith, so this energy can manipulate to get what it wants, and what it wants is to be right and on top. Luck is when preparation meets opportunity, so it’s a little untrustworthy–you don’t know how it got here, but it’s bound to get what it wants.
14: The coming-of-age degree. Really wants to know the significant person, or dig in deeper to the relationship, but has trepidation do to the fact that it knows it will have to grow tf up. These planets feel young, but you know they’re not too young, they are just holding back.
15: Gung ho af to get into the relationship, or to get to know the other significant person in the relationship. It can be abrasive and demand that it knows the purpose of the union, even if it doesn’t know everything. A little bit of knowledge feels like everything for this planetary degree, again, even if it’s not everything.
16: The Maiden degree. In love with love and wants to be beautiful, smart and cunning in order to win the significant other in the composite, or if it’s a mutual planet, it means both parties really want this to take them away into a fantasy world they only dreamed of since they were kids.
17: The I’m grown now, and a little tired of trying to figure you out degree, but I’ll keep trying. It is over the significant other or the relationship before it began, but does feel like there might be something to consider that it overlooked, so it keeps going.
18: The aggressive degree that wants to devour you and make you their own, but also has issues getting to the point where they can even meet you. This could be in the way of a union grounding itself, but once it does, it’s good or maybe even too good (if you are over the relationship) at making it last.
19: The appraxxed degree. This is the beginning and the end. Alpha and Omega. Does want to know the significant person, but also feels like they have been there done that. It jumps back and forth until it realizes that all this nonsense is just nerves, because the planet that falls here is not sure of anything at all ever.

 

THIRD DECAN

20: An intense excitement to feel the other party or the relationship completely from the inside out. This degree can become codependent and attached, even when the relationship is over.
21: Often confused about the nature of the other party or the relationship, but still feels it knows everything that it could possibly know, and builds the relationship on this notion.
22: Kill or be Killed. Goes after it 💯 or it knows that it will be devoured by it. What it wants from the relationship or Significant person is EVERYTHING, and they know if they don’t take it, it will be taken from them.
23: The Luckiest degree. Everything this planet touches is golden by association. There is a party in it’s pants and you are invited. There is a lot of care, mutual respect and a desire to share with the other everything you know to be true about them. Or if it’s a mutual planet, you desire to share with each other all the great things you have always known about each other.
24: Knows that the relationship is kind and beautiful and serves a sweet purpose that it wants to build off of. If this is Venus or Mars, the woman or man respectively really really loves the other for all that they are, but they might think they know more than they know and get bored of the sweetness.
25: Spiritual af about this relationship, chooses to let the spirit take them through it. If this is a joint planet like the Sun, it means both of you will let it go the route it needs to go. If this is Venus or Mars, the woman or man respectively, will feel this way even if the other party puts more effort into it–meaning they might be being carried by the other party and not spirit at all.
26: The beautiful degree, it feels as if the significant other party is so beautiful and perfect you don’t know what to do with yourself, however you are also afraid that it might come with some beautiful person baggage. If this is a joint planet like the Sun or the Moon you feel this way about each other.
27: The most lackadaisical degree, because it is just moon and neptune and knows if it has to move forward with thought it will sound crazy, but it also really wants the person it’s with in the composite chart. So just know it’s not doing anything cuz if it does, it will be ridiculous.
28: The most powerful degree. It knows everything about the significant person or the relationship as a whole and still desires to know more. It’s not done with the sign yet, it wants to be a true proficient, so it’s not done with you, even though it knows you well…
29: The master number from hell. It is powerful but only when fate decides. This degree knows too much about the significant person or the relationship and doesn’t care to learn more, unless it “has to” by will of the universe, divine timing or an outside push. Otherwise it’s bored, and is waiting on something else.
