Soul-Path Synastry Analysis Instructions

  1. Compare both nodal axes to identify shared life lessons and collective evolution.
  2. Examine aspects from one person's planets to the other's nodes, Vertex, or Midheaven for destiny cues.
  3. Evaluate Saturn contacts for karmic responsibilities or agreements requiring mutual commitment.
  4. Review overlays of the 9th and 12th houses to see how spiritual paths intersect.
  5. Note progressions and significant transits that trigger nodal or Vertex connections for timing milestones.
  6. Look for repeating themes with asteroids like Chiron or Pallas for guidance and wisdom.
  7. Assess how each partner's strengths encourage the other's life mission and personal growth.
  8. Summarize the relationship's role in propelling both individuals toward fulfilling their purpose.

Following the book’s method — “pull three datasets from the catalog” (body, aspect, body) and combine them with sign and house — record each contact as:

a (body 1) 1 (sign of a) house of a aspect (operator) b (body 2) 2 (sign of b) house of b orb applying/separating
… … … … … … … … …

Then read: (a + 1)^house(a) × (b + 2)^house(b) = interpretation — i.e., body-in-sign, coloured by house, joined by the aspect’s quality. In Synastry work the bodies come from two different charts (A and B).

Construction reminder: synastry overlays two natal charts through inter-aspects and house overlays.
