Why Is the Moon Important in Synastry?
The Moon is one of the most important planets in synastry (for romantic and emotional relationships). It governs your emotions, how you experience and express them. The Moon depicts needs, your sense of inner security and your sense of home. It is your intuition and instincts. You are at your happiest when you are aligned with your Moon.
Because of this, the Moon is central in synastry. It shows what makes you feel nurtured and if you can connect to someone on a soul level. Harmonious Moon connections indicate an easy flow of energy in the relationship. These relationships make you feel safe and nurtured, seen and heard.
The Moon is the ruling planet of Cancer. Because of the fast-moving nature of the Moon, the Moon’s zodiac sign is extremely important in a chart.
The Descendant in Astrology
The descendant, often abbreviated as dsc/desc, corresponds to the part of the sky that was setting on the Western horizon. This point is directly opposite the ascendant. The ascendant is all about you, the chart owner. It describes parts of your personality, your physical body, the way you go about things. The descendant is the opposite: it represents other people, people who are close to you in committed relationships in the first place. It is the cusp of the seventh house, the house of marriage and partnerships.
The descendant describes what traits you seek in others rather than in yourself. Although sometimes it appears that you lack the energy of your descendant, we all possess the energy of all 12 signs (just in different proportions).
