Synastry moon conjunct mars/pluto midpoint and venus conjunct pluto in scorpio?

That's very good in synastry and on top of that they are in your first house which means he will help you enhance your self-expression. Other than that your Moon in Scorpio might want for more open displays of emotion than he can give you with his lack of water in his chart (Pluto excluded). And that Venus in Virgo might want a steady presence, someone you can always count on.

With all that air in his chart, he doesn't seem pretty dependable to me. And your Venus is Retrograde which means it has troubles opening up already. And with no supporting earth from his chart I am not sure he will be able to convince you to fully commit.

I have been in a five-year relationship with a man whose Ascendant conjunct my Sun. If you look planet by planet though, it's close to a total nightmare with Venus square Venus, Mercury square Mercury, and a fire Moon with an earth Moon. So... going with the Ascendant part might be worth it, especially in terms of promising a long-term commitment, but you should know it stil doesn't mean it will be a bed of roses for the reasons stated in the above paragraph.

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.
