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 Moon in the Composite chart is the Soul, or the feelings you share together–and what type of feeling connects you to the other one. (Look at the the house first & sign as a secondary indicator, for the full picture).

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. After you click to see the chart, find the Moon sign symbol, then read the descriptions below for Sign and House. 

Composite Moon in the 1H/Aries

With the Composite Moon in the 1st house, emotions can be very important in this relationship, and it’s what ties you together. You can each feel that you can express your emotions openly and freely with one another, and have an understanding of how you each emote.

The downside is you can get overwhelmed by emotion, caught up in it, and you can easily be subjective about one another and the relationship instead of objective. You can also be missing logic and reason at times, so you have to work on not letting the emotions control everything.

 

Composite Moon in the 2H/Taurus

With the Composite Moon in the 2nd house, you can have an emotional understanding of one another’s beliefs, and the tie between your with your beliefs can provide some stability for the relationship. This relationship, whether personal or professional, can have a calming, grounding influence.

With this house ruling money, this can be an especially good position for a business relationship/partnership, and you can both be driven to accumulate wealth to make you feel more secure.

In a personal relationship, neither of you may rock the boat very much, but when you do have issues connecting emotionally, it can seem like it just doesn’t go away, and you have to work on being more flexible.

 

Composite Moon in the 3H/Gemini

With the Composite Moon in the 3rd house, you can express your emotions more clearly and effectively with one another than with almost any other person.

Your minds and hearts can meet up easily, and though at times, you may let reason take over for emotions or emotions take over for reason, so balance is important.

You’ll likely have long conversations and talk about everything with one another. Open dialogue can feel like the key to maintaining the relationship. This can be a good placement for siblings, friends, or a teacher-student.

 

Composite Moon in the 4H/Cancer

With the Composite Moon in the 4th house, this is the house the Moon naturally rules, so it’s at home here. As a result, you may have an easier time managing the emotions of one another and the relationship.

With the 4th house and the Moon ruling the home, family, and internal foundation, this can be an excellent position for a family relationship, to build a family or home together, or to create a strong foundation together. You can either feel more secure with one another, and more emotional and shaky.

 

Composite Moon in the 5H/Leo

With the Composite Moon in the 5th house, you can express what you’re feeling in a lighter, more playful way, and try not to take one another or the relationship too seriously. This makes it a good position for a friendship, or for a business relationship focused on creative ventures.

In a romantic relationship, you can have fun together and make each other feel good, but you may try to avoid any of the serious stuff, so you have to force yourselves to take some things more seriously together.

This can be an excellent position for having children since the Moon rules family and the 5th house rules children.

 

Composite Moon in the 6H/Virgo

With the Composite Moon in the 6th house, you may struggle to maintain a relationship where one of you isn’t doing all of the heavy lifting, and this can lead to emotional problems within the relationship.

You may be tempted to keep any ill feelings you have to yourself until it builds up into something too big, or you nitpick one another too much and are overly critical.

Since the 6h house rules work, a professional relationship can have a better chance with this placement. In a personal relationship, you need to not poke the relationship to death, demand unrealistic perfection, and try to be more practical.

 

Composite Moon in the 7H/Libra

With the Composite Moon in the 7th house, this is the house of relationships, so this can be a good placement for virtually any relationship, personal or professional.

You each can focus on the relationship a great deal, feeling more secure and confident when you feel the relationship is solid and strong.

You can work extra hard to make sure you’re each putting in your fair share of work to maintain the relationship, but you also need to make sure the relationship doesn’t become an emotional crutch for either of you.

 

Composite Moon in the 8H/Scorpio

With the Composite Moon in the 8th house, this can make the emotions of the relationship run much deeper. You may feel like you each bring out the deepest, darkest emotions and issues you have, and it can cause the relationship to feel unsettling and cause more emotional extremes.

There is great potential for the relationship to help each of you grow and transform, but you have to deal with the stuff the relationship dredges up for you.

This can be a very serious relationship, no matter how casual you want it to be. With the 8th house ruling shared resources and other people’s money, this can be an easier position for a professional relationship.

 

Composite Moon in the 9H/Sagittarius

With the Composite Moon in the 9th house, this relationship can have a much lighter feeling to it, and you each seem more optimistic and happy-go-lucky together than when you’re apart.

You can expand your lives and have new experiences together that help to create a bond, but you do have to work on strengthening that bond since this house loves freedom and hates strings.

This is an easier position for a friendship because of that, but you can still make it work as a romantic relationship if you give each other enough space to not feel stifled.

 

Composite Moon in the 10H/Capricorn

With the Composite Moon in the 10th house, you can both be more practical and responsible with the relationship and one another. This house takes responsible and duty seriously.

You can achieve a lot more together than you feel you can apart, so this is an excellent position for a professional relationship, and you can have a lot of success.

In a personal relationship, while you can find commitment easier, you may need to work on opening up more emotionally. This house has a tendency to keep messy emotions out of everything, but that can’t be allowed in a personal relationship.

 

Composite Moon in the 11H/Aquarius

With the Composite Moon in the 11th house, you can feel you connect through similar ideals, causes, and dreams. You can feel like friends, first and foremost, no matter what the nature of the relationship is.

There can be a camaraderie between you that makes it easy, but you can also have issues with emotional detachment with this placement, so you want to make sure that in a personal relationship, you’re opening up about your feelings and not ignoring what you’re feeling.

You can each feel more like your true selves in this relationship, able to embrace what’s quirky and different about one another.

Composite Moon in the 12th House/Pisces

With the Composite Moon in the 12th house, you can have a hard time expressing your emotions with one another. The 12th house is the house of the hidden, and hides the energy of whatever is in it. so if the Composite Moon is here, you can have difficulty being open emotionally.

One of you may also do a lot more for the other, almost like a doormat or a sacrificial lamb, so that needs to be avoided.

Time alone for just the two of you can be important to help you feel secure about the relationship, and you’ll likely be very uncomfortable in the spotlight together.
