The building blocks of astrology are the “planets” and the aspects they make. This series is about studying different aspects to learn how they play out in real situations. We have some amazing stories around us and this is a great chance to see if we can find these events reflected in astrological charts. Here we have the synastry chart - the combination of 2 natal charts - of Tanster and Koand. We’ve found an aspect that we haven’t looked at yet - Jupiter Square Venus. Neptune is aligned with Koand’s Venus so we’ll treat them as a duo and I’ll paste what I can find below.
Tanster’s Jupiter is in the 10th House:

This Jupiter is in Aquarius:
The Jupiter in Aquarius person is quite different from the person with this placement in other signs. This person will have a taste of all philosophies in life and formulate his own rather quickly.
They tend to be quite rash when it comes to extreme situations, as they don’t like to waste time when an action must be taken.
While they have the humanitarian outlook of a single-minded Aquarian, there is just enough bias towards personal freedom to make them seem distant at times, and hard for others to get close to. They can become very dogmatic about their beliefs, and the beliefs of others.

You see what everyone else has been doing and think there must be a better way. You’ll work with the existing framework but you’ll find clever ways to hammer in some new nails.

They are experimental, often trying new things to see what they can discover about life. If you want to make a lady of this sort truly happy, you must learn to explore and grow with her and find an area where you both can do that together.

Koand’s Venus is in Libra:
By Molly Hall
In astrology, Venus is the planet which rules our love style. The zodiac sign occupied by Venus at the time of your birth describes how you express your affection for others as well as the things in life you take the greatest pleasure in. In short, it shows how you love and what you love.
If Venus is in Libra for you, then that can translate to mean that you are easy to be with and a dynamic talker. You have good manners and show balanced consideration across the board like leaving a fair tip in the restaurant. You are graceful, charming, an elegant dresser and probably do not like to use obscene words. Sometimes you veer toward people-pleasing, which can look empty if only meant to avoid an argument.
Famous People with Venus in Libra
They have got style and they have got grace, check out these famous people with Venus in Libra: Grace Kelly, Pablo Picasso, Richard Gere, Hugh Grant, Elvis Costello, Tim Robbins, Prince Charles, Sean Connery, and Georgia O'Keefe.
Cardinal Quality and Air Element
Venus in Libra shares the cardinal qualities and air element. Libra as a cardinal sign means that you will not find a cardinal person slacking off. Cardinal signs are full of vim and vigor and possess a drive and ambition that is unmistakable. Enthusiasm and a zest for life fill the cardinal individual.
Libra as the element of air, means this sign gives you room to breathe, widens your lungs, and as an air sign, you have a strong need to feel liberated and free.
In Love and Romance
If Venus is in Libra that can mean that you are a true romantic at heart, and thrive when in a committed, loving partnership. Even if you seem emotionally detached, you are prone to quickly merging lives, and sometimes it is too much, too soon. You are looking for someone with whom to be more than the sum of your parts. You will instinctively know if a potential lover balances you out or makes you better. At home, you like a calm, pleasing environment. If you press against your mate, it will likely be because you see room for improvement. Like with Libra in other planets, this Venus is able to unlock the sexual passion of others. In the bedroom, you are gifted at creating a romantic mood, and will likely go for all the enhancers, like candles, music, silk sheets and fresh flowers.

You are drawn to good-looking, intelligent, well-mannered people and will feel cheated if you think you have settled for less. You admire those that champion the cause of justice and are turned off by snobby, brash or arrogant people.
Your Friendship Style
At the party, you are the one meandering through the room with the tray of Cosmos and simultaneously introducing people to each other with the ease of a social pro. Your mind is clear, so friends value your insights and advice. When it comes to the give and take, you make sure things are balanced, and will make it right if it is not.

Koand’s Neptune is in Libra:
Neptune in Libra may bring lessons regarding partnerships. While they crave relationships, they may need to learn to sacrifice or compromise in order to make them work. For some, they will need to make a deep inner change in their consciousness. By changing their inner attitudes, they can effect change in the larger world around them.
Libra Neptune likes to find harmony in relationships with others. They may be inclined towards the arts in one form or another. They may have a wonderful relationship of a very high spiritual nature, or it can be unconventional, clandestine or illegitimate. They may tend to be over-emotional or weak minded.
Libra Neptune would like nothing better than to end war on Earth in their lifetime. They are idealistic to an extreme. Reconciling their idealism with reality may be difficult for them. They have an eclectic attitude towards religion, and may pull aspects from many that appeal to them while leaving the unappealing aspects alone. They may not be very decisive and may be deceived easily. They may lack a clear purpose, which can hinder their goals.
Neptune in Libra wants perfection but they must learn that perfection takes sacrifice. This is a hard lesson for them to learn. It is hard for them to relax and have faith that everything will turn out okay in the end after making their sacrifice.
They may be too caught up in their immediate loss to see what they have gained. Their indecisiveness really becomes an obstacle leading up to making the ultimate sacrifice. It is hard for them to come to terms with the price required for their idealism.
Personality Profile
Represented by the scales, Libra zodiac sign looks to bring justice and restore balance in everything they do. It’s this kind of dedication to harmony that inspires Neptune in Libra to look for problems that need solving. They are able to listen to all sides of an argument and mediate a solution.
Neptune in astrology represents inspiration, spiritual focus, drama, instincts and dreams. For Neptune in Libra, their main goal is to eliminate confusion and come up with a viable answer that suits everyone. Their concern for compromise helps others with their dilemma, often making them an effective mediator in any situation. They are great listeners and they go into everything with an open mind so they can be an objective observer.
Libra Neptune Sign: Positive Traits
Libra Neptune sign people love a good debate. As social butterflies, they have to be out and about having active conversations with people. But what gets them going the most is when they see an injustice being done. That’s what motivates and inspires them into doing something for the greater good.
Neptune in Libra are often involved in social issues and are part of groups that help those in need. It’s this kind of environment that allows them to do good deeds and offers them spiritual enlightenment.
Libra Neptune Sign: Negative Traits
The only thing that can get in the way of Neptune in Libra is their desire for everything to be perfect. Their need for complete harmony is simply unattainable in the real world, and they often have trouble reconciling that notion. In fact, this comes into play in their personal pursuits because they can have difficulty running their own lives.
While they are able to solve other people’s problems, they are usually quite indecisive when it comes to their own issues. They go back and forth, weighing every option, but rarely settle on what is the correct one. It’s as if they are so focused on helping the rest of the world they don’t know what to do with just themselves.
They only find inspiration from outside forces. They don’t feel anything on the inside except the desire to make the world a better place. And that’s a noble cause of course. But because they get so confused in their own lives, they can grow depressed very easily over their lack of commitment or indecisiveness. Their inability to create the perfect world, the perfect relationships, and the perfect life can bring them down immensely.

If you have Venus-Jupiter aspects in your synastry chart, your sense of love, romance, and affection is expanded. The relationship may feel larger-than-life, especially at first.
These aspects boost pleasure levels between a couple. However, you may also overdo things together or stretch the truth. This energy pushes you to hold onto the good, yet you may then ignore the bad.
Ultimately, Venus-Jupiter relationships can be really beneficial if you’re able to work through the over-expansive parts of these aspects.
Venus Square Jupiter Synastry
If you have the Venus square Jupiter synastry aspect in your relationship, you will sense that there’s something promising about your partner when you first meet.
For both people, it can feel like you’re living in a romance novel, at least in the beginning of your relationship. This feeling actually comes from the sense of friction that the square provides.
The Venus partner feels inspired and romantic around the Jupiter partner. They may be more sexually confident or feel ultra-attractive. They tend to enter into the relationship because of these wonderfully amorous feelings.
Meanwhile, the Jupiter person may feel especially expansive, philosophical, or spiritual around the Venus person.
In the Venus square Jupiter synastry relationship, you both have a tendency to take big risks, but you also experience large disappointments. Around each other, you may exaggerate or make false claims to your partner, or you may overspend, overeat, drink too much, etc.
Regardless of your personal life, these behaviors are heightened when you’re around your partner. It’s hard to control yourselves when you’re together.
The positive, expansive, generous energy from the beginning of the relationship can quickly turn into exaggeration or excess if you aren’t careful. You could take unnecessary risks together, stretch the truth but then keep secrets, or act too loving/touchy at inappropriate times.
With the Venus square Jupiter synastry relationship, you must be careful of your expectations. You both promise more than you can provide and assume that the other person will live up to their words.
Be careful of boasting or showing off. You tend to feel larger then life around each other, but this quickly gets you in trouble.
You may feel a strong sense of disappointment when the relationship doesn’t live up to the image in your mind. Unfortunately, your partner provides false claims that perpetrates this image, and you probably do the same in return.
If this Venus square Jupiter synastry relationship is going to work, then it’s very important that you both learn how to live with your feet on the ground.
You may not be sure what’s real at first, or what part of your partner’s personality is authentic. The way that this manifests will depend on the signs of the Venus square Jupiter synastry aspect.
It’s important that you ground yourself and try to work with your partner within the context of reality. Don’t take what they say at face value and be very careful of your own words, as you’re likely to stretch or change the truth.
Over time, you will learn how to be authentic with each other. This aspect takes a lot of practice to overcome, but it certainly is possible.

Challenging aspects: Venus square or opposition other person’s Jupiter
Venus feels romantically inspired by Jupiter, feeling more sexually confident and attractive in their presence, which is a wonderful feeling! There is something wonderfully promising about this relationship. Still, there is an enabling quality to this connection–making one another happy without the discipline to give one another what they need, not just what they want.
*Your nature is generous and giving, but budgeting your resources is not your strong suit. The desire for instant gratification crops up regularly and you will need to deal with it effectively. Some things are worth waiting for, believe it or not! You have a tendency to risk with high stakes or expectations and your disappointments can be large. Learning to do the research and curb impetuousness will save you grief. If you exaggerate or make false claims, you’re likely to gain a bad reputation. Your negative issues arise mostly from overdoing or overspending in one way or another. In spite of it all, you manage to laugh about your escapades and also find some wisdom.
Essentially positive, expansive, generous and joyful, this aspect between your charts generates its share of exaggeration and excess if not handled carefully. This is the classic, “too much of a good thing”. The truth could be stretched or unnecessary risks taken with your resources or your affections. Guard against taking too much for granted, or you may easily lose something valuable to you. Be careful of having too high expectations or promising more than you can truly give. Be aware of boasting and showing off, since it is likely to bring you the opposite of what you desire. The impulse is for betterment and supporting positive influences in your lives together but the compulsion in this aspect may be to get it all at once or immediately. Take the time to discern the experiences and influences that really matter to you and look at the long term, at least part of the time. The intent of the aspect is to make you aware of where you tend to be excessive and the consequences of that. There will always be a tendency to push the envelope a bit and it’s up to the two of you to decide when that is your best interest or not. A sport of some kind would be good outlet for your restless energies.

In horoscope, just as in a person’s character, Jupiter awakens the sense of justice, morality, goodness. The astrological symbol of Jupiter is a crescent moon upon a horizontal cross, which implies spiritual is in greater effect in Jupiter, in contrast to the material. Therefore, Jupiter embodies generosity, mercy and wisdom.
Jupiter is primarily associated with knowledge, higher education, and the material aspect in terms of concrete possibilities of obtaining wealth. It is also associated with travel, faraway lands, need to expand your views, with foreign people and foreign languages.
Jupiter is a guide, tutor, guru; it represents institutions such as colleges, subjects such as philosophy, religion, faith.
People with a strong Jupiter in their charts are usually fortunate when it comes to well-being, material richness, social positions, but it comes natural to them to deal with such things. Jupiter is benevolent and it does not make one arrogant, but happy.
This benevolent planet is our astrological protector; we shall see how it acts in square with Neptune in synastry.
Neptune in Mythology and Astrology – The Importance in Synastry
Neptune or Poseidon was the ancient god of the sea. He was not always considered the lord of all waters, but that is how most of us know him. Neptune was Jupiter’s brother and also Saturn’s son.
Neptune has always been considered a god of unpredictable mood, temperamental, violent, even and impulsive. People living on the coast were in awe of Neptune.
It was believed that Neptune protects those who travel across the sea, but he could also cause terrible sea storms and earthquakes. He was not a deity one would like to provoke.
Neptune is often represented with his trident and this is also the symbol of the astrological planet Neptune. This symbol implies that the Soul wants to get away from the Material and reach the Divine.
In astrology, Neptune is considered a mysterious planet, the planet of illusions, dreams, that infinite search for realms divine, perfect, ideal, imagined. It rules the imagination through inspiration; it inspires art, but is not artistic as the aesthetic Venus was.
Nor is its imaginative nature that of the Moon. Many astrologers would describe Neptune’s nature as characteristic.
Neptune symbolizes unquestionable faith, hope, dreams, daydreams, everything unconscious and sub-conscious, everything that makes us wonder if what we see and experience was a dream or reality.
Neptune is an ideal, a prayer, an imaginary realm, psychic ability. A bit of Neptune’s energy is healing, but the excess could be a poison, astrologers would say.
Neptune is the patron of artists, especially painters and musicians; it is strong in hypersensitive and spiritual persons, doctors and all those who have experienced the blessed (or cursed?) platonic love.
Neptune inspires creativity, imagination, idealism, but it also creates illusions, even lies and deception and it could lead to vices and addictions.
Jupiter Square Neptune Synastry – General Information
Jupiter Square Neptune is not a catastrophic aspect, though it requires an effort from both parties in order to be handled well and under control. Unfavorable aspects with Neptune often require control, a bit forced (at least at first) realistic view on things.
The problem that could occur with such an aspect in synastry would likely be related to ethics and religious views.
These are important points in any type of a relationship, be it romantic or another one, so it is something that should be worked through. This connection would very likely lead to some degree of lack of trust between partners.
Most commonly, Jupiter would suspect Neptune’s truthfulness. This is a relationship that would likely be on a constant faith-confidence test.
It could be very challenging and it is likely that the Neptune person, since more prone to illusions, dreaming, imagination and adaptation, would lie, in order to avoid unpleasant arguments and conflicts.
This is a typical pattern when you have a planet in square with Neptune in synastry and it usually starts out of Neptune’s good intention.
Trying to protect him or herself and not to hurt the other part, Neptune would play along, playing a role that would please the other part, though unreal. There could also be secrets and hiding things and unspoken things. In the long run, it would poison the relationship.
Jupiter person that praises justice above all and roots beliefs rather in knowledge rather than in a dream would not enjoy such a game, seeing through it.
Jupiter Square Neptune Synastry – Challenges
Although this connection might be a bit confusing, as all connections of the sort could be, painted with Neptune’s elusive, though alluring, vibration, it is definitely not something you cannot work out.
The main problem is different opinion and experience of ethics and religious views.
While Neptune was more intimate and dreamy in terms of religious and spiritual experience, Jupiter is far more traditional.
These completely different views on spirituality and religion could lead to distancing. It is interesting to note that both of these could be highly spiritual and interested in the religious, but so different in their conceptualization of it. Well, Jupiter conceptualizes, Neptune dreams and fantasizes.
However, what is also characteristic of this interesting connection is that these two amplify the overall sense of hope, belief, and luck. This connection brings in a strong sense of being soul-bound; the connection is very strong and it leads you both thinking that together you could do anything you dream. It is a good side of this connection, but also a risky one.
It is something you should nurture, though carefully, since it could lead to irresponsibility, getting lost in idealistic expectations. Jupiter could surrender to the dream and start believing in mere luck, neglecting the mundane, practical responsibilities.
Neptune could amplify overall sense of luck and maintain this illusion. Try to keep your feet on the ground, which would help things work out fine for your relationship.
