His Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Venus and conjunct my Ascendant. Is this good or bad in synastry?

The conjunction depends on the sign and who has more power in it. The emphasis on his or her emotional-sexual involvements, which are usually passionate, intense and frequent, will depend on which planet is strongest. In this case, Mars / Venus are about equal which means, you will sue up a lot of energy towards analyzing your feelings and emotions, and being overly critical and quite nagging at times.

Aries.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
