Good afternoon friends,
I have a question pertaining to Synastry & Skipped Steps
If person on outer wheel(we will call them Chart B) has their nodes squaring the inner wheel person's planets (we will call them Chart A) would it be correct to assume the person who has skipped the steps(has been flip/flopping) is the person on the outer wheel (Person who has the nodes squaring the other persons planet)? In the reverse, person from Chart A has planets that square person from Chart B nodal axis
Is there any material on this, and how to further understand this dynamic? I guess what I am trying to understand, is, would the skipped steps be attributed to one person only, and if so, whom? (I understand that in the composite chart, this is interpreted as a unit).
Person who has nodes squaring the person's planet VS. Person who has planet squaring the nodes of the other person
Let me know if my question seems confusing and I will try to reword.
Thank you!
Natasha
Hi Natasha,
In the old message board there is an answer from Rad to a similar question, so here it is:
"Relative to synastry charts alone 'skipped steps' are not symbolized when one person's planet or planets is squaring the Nodes in the others chart. What this symbolizes are dynamics and issues that have created developmental stress between the two people either in previous lives that has come forwards into the current life, or developmental stress that is occurring for the first time in their relationship: the current life. In previous lives such stress may have served to separate the two people, or they may have continued in their relationship with that developmental stress unresolved. In either case the relationship between the two can not actually evolve until that developmental stress is identified and resolved. So too if it is the first lifetime in which that developmental stress is occurring.
The person whose planet or planets is making the square to the others Nodes is the causative factor creating the developmental stress for that other. When this other then reacts to the one causing this stress that reaction, of itself, will then create developmental stress within the one who planet(s) are squaring that person's Nodes. This ongoing interaction of cause and effect, back and forth, is that which will the ongoing developmental stress between the two people until the reasons for it are objectively identified and then resolved.
Skipped steps between two people can only be symbolized in their composite chart together."

Helena, Thank you so much! That is exactly what I was looking for. Appreciate you taking the time to grab the info and post it here for me.
