Relationships are not simply two people interacting.

From a depth psychological perspective, every relationship creates a shared field—a living psychological space in which unconscious patterns, attachment dynamics, projections, and archetypal themes emerge between us.

In this video, I explore synastry through the lens of psychodynamic psychotherapy, including transference, countertransference, and the intersubjective field. Rather than viewing synastry solely as a compatibility technique, we will consider how astrology can help illuminate the unconscious dynamics that become activated when two people meet.

Topics include:

• What psychodynamics means
• Transference and countertransference
• The intersubjective field
• Synastry as a map of relational dynamics
• Composite charts and the relationship itself
• Projection, attachment, and archetypal activation
• Clinical reflections from psychotherapy and astrology

Whether you are an astrologer, therapist, student of depth psychology, or simply interested in understanding relationships more deeply, I hope this exploration offers a meaningful framework for thinking about what happens between us.
