Lesson 3: Design Your Dream Relationship

Creating A Relationship Love Map


Time to set your relationship GPS! You can run composite charts for any pairing—from romantic partners to business associates to friends or relatives. Pick a second person for this exercise. If you aren't currently in a relationship, you might even use an ex's chart (if this doesn't stir up too many bad memories, of course). You may gain powerful insights about why the relationship didn't work out—and what you could do differently with future partners. 

Again, there are several websites that allow you to cast a free composite chart, including astro.com and astro-charts.com.  We recommend using this link to create your relationship charts: astro-charts.com/tools/new/composite 


This exercise works a lot like Lesson 1. The only difference is that you're creating a love map for the relationship instead of you as an individual. 

If you have accurate birth times for both people, you could add in the houses to your interpretation. Below is a key of how each of the houses can influence love and romance.
