Sun Quincunx Chiron
This is one of the most powerful aspects that is not a Super Aspect. It helps the native to be noteworthy and or charismatic. If the native also has a Super Aspect formed by Chiron, then he or she can have a hypnotic or mesmerizing influence on most of us. This is also a female Romance Aspect where the native (person born with the aspect), if female, has an unusually intense desire for marriage and children. Such women often marry and have children when they are very young.
Moon Semisextile Mars (Detriment)
A person with ambitious goals and the drive to achieve them; implacable, an enthusiastic person, given to hard work and intense relationships, usually with a strong sexual element; highly emotion-driven; excels at physically demanding work.
Moon Opposition Saturn
Indicates that the person is poor, or loses his money and becomes so, and has a hard struggle to make both ends meet. He is earnest and ambitious, but his plans do not materialize as expected; a hard worker but generally receives little gain; usually fails in business though careful and persevering; unlooked for obstacles, delays, disappointments, rebuffs and reversals constantly arise, coupled with lack of opportunities and unfavorable circumstances at the critical or needed times. It is an unfortunate aspect for marriage, yet if the planets are in common signs, usually marries more than once. A bad aspect for speculation and such thing as Saturn rules by nature, also by sign and house it occupies in the chart. The native meets with persecution, slander or scandal; disapproval of seniors, parents or employers; difficulties and sorrows through parents, property and possessions. Sorrow through death of young people and mother. Temporary derangements of the health, colds, falls and accidents. The native should refrain from strong physics and employ healthful exercises. This aspect affects the disposition, causing the subject to become somewhat selfish, subtle, careful of his own interests, given to periods of worry, anxiety, doubt, mistrust in self, gloom and despondency. A good aspect f Sun, Jupiter, Mars or Venus will help to offset the severity of the above.
Mercury (Ruler) Semisquare Venus
This aspect is not very malignant or important. It gives fondness or desire for all the aforementioned, but not so much ability for their execution, and some minor obstacles and hindrance in Venus and Mercury affairs.
Mercury (Ruler) Conjunction Pluto
Business skills; political skills; good at debating; commanding, forceful, domineering speaker, able to rouse an audience; business tactician; power broker; a voice and /or mind that commands attention, and demands attention; Pluto can elevate the mind and voice through this pairing.
Venus Semisquare Pluto
Jealousy and possessiveness enters relationships; ultimately causing loneliness in the native. A strong sex drive can lead to uncontrolled lust and immoderate behavior. Relationships are full of conflict. The native often loses friends without understanding the reason why. The native feels emotionally insecure and rears the inability to love or be loved.
Venus Trine Chiron
This is a Super Aspect and the most significant Romance Aspect. Some interpretations: charismatic beauty, love of family and marriage, strong marriage and family orientation, a career involved with making money, love for the New Age and what is a part of the new Age, money from marriage and family, money from endeavors that are ruled by Chiron and what has to do with the public, and a charismatic amount of money. The native is almost always in love with being in love and therefore always needs to be in a love relationship, resulting and a tendency to fall in love too easily.
Mars (Detriment) Quincunx Saturn
This pairing can mean control of war and is a pairing of someone who is a pacifist or is unwilling to be confrontational; but this can also be a pairing indicative of obsessive desires and sustained energy.
Mars (Detriment) Semisquare Neptune

Somewhat vague, indefinite or mysterious, obscure and secretive. Danger of loss and accident on or by water or liquids; through poisons, drugs or habits; also through thieves and acts of Nature. Trouble through duplicity, deception, fraud, imitation, racketeering, bribery, false accusation, and arrest. To psychic persons it gives liability to distraction or obsession (possession) and produces derangement, hallucination and strange ideas. If Mars or Neptune is well aspected or otherwise dignified, these testimonies are considerably modified.
Jupiter Sextile Uranus
Super fame; talented at dealing with the public and audiences; great natural ability in areas ruled by Uranus, including the general public, politics, entertainment industry (especially movies and broadcasting), telecommunications and any public performance including political speeches acting and modeling, flying and space travel, technology and other agents of change; Uranus also rules recognition so this pairing means being fully recognized and credited for achievements.
