A person whose life drifts away from the 'blueprint' of his or her birthchart grows dull, flat and depressed. It is the same for a couple - if their life together departs from the spirit of their composite chart, their relationship runs out of gas. They stop talking. Sex evaporates. They would rather watch TV than look into each others' eyes. In this book, the Forrests give you all the tools you need to explore this powerful astrological technique - theory, real-life practical examples, and an extensive 'cookbook' section where you can jump-start your interpretations by looking up the precise meaning of any configuration. In the first volume of 'Skymates', they showed us how to compare charts. Now, they take it a step further, proving that the whole is always greater than the sum of the parts.

A person whose life drifts away from the "blueprint" of his or her birthchart grows dull, flat and depressed. It is the same for a couple--if their life together departs from the spirit of their composite chart, their relationship runs out of gas. They stop talking. Sex evaporates. They would rather watch TV than look into each other's eyes.
In Skymates II: The Composite Chart, the Forrests give you all the tools you need to explore this powerful astrological technique--theory, real-life practical examples, and an extensive "cookbook" section where you can jumpstart your interpretations by looking up the precise meaning of any configuration.

5.0 out of 5 stars
another winner by steven & jodie forrest!,
By Rachel Fawn (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Skymates, Vol. II: The Composite Chart (Paperback)
i recieved this book last night and spent about 5 hours with it -- its one of those. beautiful. i'd recommend it to everyone. the cookbook material is top notch. insightful enough for advanced astrologers to learn from, yet easy to use for a beginner. (however some basic astrological familiarity is required... if you aren't familiar yet with all the signs, planets, and houses than start with steven forrest's The Inner Sky!! it is so good - you'll LOVE it.) i particularly liked the section on the moon's nodes, which details evolutionary intent based on house and sign. i have not seen a whole chapter on the nodes in any other composite book. i can tell i'll be getting allot of use out of this book... thanks steven and jodie!

Consistent with the Forrests' usual high quality,

This review is from: Skymates, Vol. II: The Composite Chart (Paperback)
The interpretations of the various chart points are spot-on and enlightening; however, I would like to mention that my wife and I, who happened to know the exact time and place of our first meeting (within a few minutes), found the chart constructed for the "birth" of our relationship to be particularly effective. We are less convinced about the "composite" chart constructed from natal position "averaging". If you don't know the time when you both first became aware of each other, you can try the composite chart and see how well it works for you.

Nice reference,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Skymates, Vol. II: The Composite Chart (Paperback)
If you are interested in evolutionary astrology and are not yet advanced enough, not in the mood or simply don't like the style of J. W. Greene "Pluto vol. 2", this is a good way to go.
Unlike the above mentioned work, Skymates has a good reference section and is written mostly as a cookbook. It will appeal to those that have not yet mastered the subtleties of "Pluto's house and sign projecting through South node house and sign through South node ruler's house and sign..." Don't get me wrong - I'm one of 'those'.
