Understanding synastry — why compatibility goes deeper than sun signs

Dr. Celeste Vega · Head of Astrology · May 22, 2026 · 7 min read

When people ask 'are we compatible?', they're often thinking about sun signs. But professional astrologers look at synastry — the comparison of two complete birth charts.

Synastry examines how each person's planets interact with the other's. A Venus-Mars conjunction might spark passion, while a Saturn square could signal challenges that require patience.

Cosmodynes and harmony scores

Onne Match uses cosmodyne analysis to quantify harmony across emotional, intellectual, and physical dimensions. These scores help you understand not just whether you connect, but how and where.

Aspects tell the story

Conjunctions, trines, and sextiles tend to flow easily. Squares and oppositions create tension that can be growth-oriented or challenging. Onne surfaces these patterns so you can navigate relationships with awareness.
