Comparison of Yoko Ono and John Lennon Birth Data for Yoko: Yoko Ono February 18, 1933 8:30 PM Tokyo, Japan Birth Data for John: John Lennon October 9, 1940 6:30 PM Manchester, England This Lovers Report is divided into 4 chapters. Chapter 1 compares your temperaments and personalities. The issues described in Chapter 1 become particularly powerful if you are married or live together. Idiosyncrasies or quirks in another person's personality do not bother us as much if our relationship is a casual one. For example, if one person is neat and tidy and the other is sloppy, this is more likely to become a concern if you are married than if you are only seeing each other occasionally. Pay close attention to the issues described in Chapter 2 because these are the most important themes in your relationship. For example, if themes of romance and sexual attraction are emphasized, then you can count on this relationship being a passionate one. However, if romance and sexuality are hardly mentioned at all, then this relationship will not be a passionate one. Note also that the material in Chapter 2 is presented roughly in order of importance, so that the material presented at the beginning of Chapter 2 is the most powerful. Chapter 4 describes issues in your relationship of less importance than those presented in Chapter 2. Chapter 3 describes situations and circumstances that arise if you have a close, long-lasting relationship. If a statement appears to contradict another statement, then your roles are likely to alternate. For example, a statement that Yoko is more aggressive than John, and another statement that John is more aggressive than Yoko, means that you alternate roles, with Yoko sometimes being the leader and John being the follower, and sometimes just the opposite. Also, read the statements carefully, as it is likely that a careful reading will reveal different kinds of aggressiveness or areas in which the aggressiveness is likely to express itself. To make the most of this report, combine this astrological analysis with other things that you know about each other. For example, we have assumed that you are opposite-sexed (assuming that both of you are heterosexual, otherwise same-sexed). Physical attractiveness, age, religion, education, family and cultural background will affect your relationship as well. The material in Chapters 2, 3, and 4 of this report describes the magnetism between you, but does not describe your individual natures. For example, suppose that Chapter 2 makes little mention of romance and sexuality, but the Natal Reports for each of you indicate that each of you has extremely strong romantic and sexual desires. In this case, marriage is not likely to be successful! However, if romance and sexuality are not important to either of you, then the lack of passion in your relationship is not likely to be as much of a stumbling block.

Lat. and Long. of birth: 53 N 30 2 W 15 House System: PLACIDUS Chapter 1 A Comparison of Temperaments and Life Styles that Affect Your Ability to Harmonize with Each Other Yoko's Sun in Aquarius and John's Sun in Libra: Both of you are very social, active people. You are involved in community groups, and your line of work probably brings you into contact with lots of people. You harmonize well with each other and are great friends. Yoko is very attached to clubs, social groups, and colleagues. John may feel that Yoko needs friends more than a marriage partner or lover. In fact, John devotes much more attention to any close partnership. This difference in orientation is fairly subtle, however, and may not be a source of difficulty or conflict. You both tend to live in your minds, and enjoy a partner who is awake and alive mentally - an intellectual peer. Fortunately, you have this in one another. Yoko's Moon in Sagittarius and John's Moon in Aquarius: You harmonize because your emotional needs and inner attitudes towards life are quite similar. Both of you are independent and you have a strong desire to experiment and experience the unknown or novel. Progressive and forward-looking, you both adjust easily to change, and in fact, seek it out, for you get restless in staid or relatively unchallenging circumstances. Neither of you is especially domestic. Involvement in the world at large, or at least in a wide social circle, is important to you. Personal freedom and respect for your individual rights is essential to your happiness, and you can not tolerate being possessed. Contemporary or unconventional styles and ideas appeal to both of you, and you have little use for "tradition for tradition's sake". Both of you are idealistic, and John especially tends to be logical and identified with a particular belief system or philosophy. At times you both are (or probably have been) rather dogmatic. There is much camaraderie between you, but if your philosophies differ you are unlikely to be such good buddies. Your relationship has a fairly light quality to it, and it may lack warmth, intimacy, or depth. Also, since neither of you wants to be home-bound, it is likely that no one keeps the home fires burning. Moon & Venus hard for John, soft or conj for Yoko: Both of you are very family-oriented, and devoted to your cherished friends also. Yoko is generally well-loved, and enjoys an excellent rapport with women and children especially. John wants and needs closeness too, but sometimes does things which interfere with getting that closeness and nurturing, and sometimes overdoes it - being too solicitous and sweet or indulging in self-pity when others do not provide the desired tenderness and care, for instance. Doing nurturing activities, such as giving one another massages, sharing meals, and providing emotional support should be a focus in your relationship. Moon & Mars hard or conj for Yoko, soft for John: Both of you can get quite rowdy and rambunctious at times. You are both probably used to quite a bit of conflict and high-energy confrontation in your lives due to your early childhood experiences (especially relationships with siblings and/or parents). Both of you tend to be fighters or doers, and won't sit by passively when trouble arises. However, Yoko is more apt to be hot-tempered and easily provoked, combative and even belligerent at times. John understands Yoko's irascibility, but is not as quarrelsome or defensive. John can enjoy a good fight or contest, without letting the emotions run wild and burn the whole house down -something Yoko is prone to do from time to time. Chapter 2 Major Themes in the Relationship: What Brought You Together John's Asc. Conjunct Yoko's Uranus: There is an electric, immediate attraction between the two of you and an element of surprise, discovery, and spontaneity will always infuse your relationship. Yoko stimulates John to be more uninhibited, looser, less conventional, and to experiment. Yoko can also be unpredictable and changeable toward John, and John may feel that Yoko is not to be relied upon. Yoko brings out John's independent or eccentric side. Personal freedom, independence, and individuality are highlighted in your relationship, and sometimes one or both of you feels that there is not enough togetherness, mutual dependency, or emotional closeness. Nevertheless, there is much enthusiasm and spark between you, and your relationship is always changing, always exciting. John's Sun Trine Yoko's Venus: Yours is a congenial and enjoyable relationship, for you both like, love, and appreciate one another, and make special efforts to please one another. You also share a similarity in tastes and enjoyment of leisure activities and pleasures. John's Asc. Square Yoko's Pluto: Yoko is a force for considerable benefit or harm in John's life, either greatly enhancing John's personal power and confidence, or seriously undermining it. Yoko forces John to examine the hidden motives and intentions behind John's actions, and may bring out some unsavory aspects of John's character or past history. An intense confrontation of wills, often going on in a subtle, behind-the-scenes way, characterizes your interaction at times. It is very likely that there is much "unfinished business" of an emotional or personal nature which draws the two of you together, and may bind you in a powerful love-hate, "can't live with him, can't live without him" relationship. John's Mercury Square Yoko's Saturn: Yoko is often critical and coldly analytical of John's ideas, and John is likely to feel belittled by Yoko. If both of you are able to offer criticisms and comments with a helpful, positive attitude, then this astrological influence need not be overwhelming, but the tendency to feel blocked and frustrated in your communications is very strong. You must make sincere efforts to listen receptively and sympathetically! Yoko's Mercury Trine John's Mercury: You solve problems and think about issues with a similar perspective and you are able to communicate clearly to each other. You enjoy talking to each other, sharing ideas, and learning from each other, and you are able to plan, design, and develop ideas jointly in a very successful manner. John's Mercury Sextile Yoko's Neptune: You have a strong intuitive and psychic rapport, and you often sense what is on each other's minds well before any words are spoken. You also enjoy discussing topics that have a strong imaginative or mystical element, such as the arts, music, religion, etc. Yoko's Venus Square John's Jupiter: You enjoy laughing, having fun, socializing, and going out together. You are great pals, but the relationship may not be serious enough to warrant a lasting commitment to each other. Consequently you both may decide to not marry even though you may love each other very much. If you do marry, you will allow each other a great deal of freedom, but you are likely to disagree on how to handle finances, budgeting, and investments. Yoko's Venus Square John's Saturn: This relationship may very well lead to marriage, but there are some major negative tendencies that you both need to try to avoid. The proclivity to marriage stems from the strong sense of commitment, reliability, trustworthiness, faithfulness, and stability that this relationship offers. You both feel that you can count on each other and dedicate your lives to each other. However, this stable, reliable relationship can easily become boring, unexciting, and downright cold over time. Yoko, in particular, is likely to feel stifled by the relationship. Yoko may feel neglected, unloved, and unappreciated. Your tastes and interests are often different and you sometimes simply don't connect with each other on an emotional level. To prevent this relationship from drying up, you both must maintain your involvement in activities that inspire and uplift you, and maintain your friendships, hobbies, and entertainment you love -even when your partner does not share your enthusiasm for these activities. Yoko's Mars Trine John's Jupiter: The two of you form an effective, dynamic team in any venture or endeavor. You work together very well in accomplishing daily tasks, and it is likely that you will also successfully coordinate efforts on joint efforts as well. Yoko's Mars Trine John's Saturn: You work together extremely well. You are able to focus on tasks, come to an agreement on what needs to be done, and get the job done. This is a tremendous asset for individuals that live together and build a life together because the need to coordinate on tasks, whether they are minor tasks like grocery shopping or major tasks like planning career goals, is a big part of everyone's life. You help each other to be clear about what is really important and how to accomplish your goals. You are able to concentrate and work together in a focused, disciplined, harmonious manner. Chapter 3 Destiny and Final Outcome of Your Relationship Composite Sun Square Mars: The two of you get fired up when you are together, and inevitably there will be hostilities and disagreements if you do not direct all of this energy into a common goal. Physical activities, like sports or demanding physical work, are good outlets for you as a duo. Intense rivalry and competition are ongoing issues between you, even if you are both fairly unaggressive, cooperative people. Angry confrontations over minor matters mask other, deeper concerns - such as who is dominant, and the need to feel important and powerful in the relationship. You over-use force and heroics when you are together. However, when you channel all of this energy into a good cause, you are a dynamic, energetic vital team. Composite Moon Conjunct Mercury: Through your relationship with one another, and especially your intimate conversations, both of you will understand your past histories, your emotions, and your own inner lives much more clearly. Being in one another's presence evokes in both of you the desire to confide, to tell your stories, to speak about your private selves. You are able to talk for hours. There is often a sentimental or nostalgic tone to your discussions. Visiting old childhood haunts together, studying your family trees, looking at and discussing old photographs, describing your dreams to each other, talking about your children or your mate or parents - this type of sharing will be a crucial aspect of your bond. Even if you are not the sort of person who discusses feelings or readily confides in others, you'll find that with this particular person, you can and will. You make good counselors for one another. At times you may feel that your discussions are too subjective, or always become personal even when the initial topic is broad and rather impersonal. For the two or you, emotional attitudes and feelings will always color your communication. This is an essential part of the purpose of your relationship: examining feelings and the past in order to understand them. Composite Moon Trine Uranus: An unusually open, non-possessive, emotionally liberating relationship will naturally develop between you. Because you do not try to own one another, or to live up to some preconceived idea of how you should be together, you will both be free to express your true impulses and desires. The more you encourage one another to be free, the closer you will feel. One of the purposes of your relationship is to allow you both to experience being connected in a true friendship which is not restrictive, binding, or possessive. Composite Mercury Trine Uranus: Experimenting with new ideas and innovative or unconventional approaches, is part of your purpose together. As a couple, you could teach or in other ways disseminate ideas which are advanced, state-of-the-art, highly original, or "alternative". The intellectual atmosphere between you is lively and inspiring, and no matter what else is happening in your relationship, you are good for one another in this way. Composite Venus Sextile Mars: Sexual harmony and compatibility, and a healthy balance between giving and receiving, are much of what this relationship is about. One of the blessings between the two of you is that each of you can give without feeling diminished or depleted. Being together gives you energy, sparks your vitality and creativity on many levels (in addition to the physical, sexual one). This is destined to be a fulfilling, mutually satisfying love, and keeping the love fresh and alive will not require a lot of effort, either! Composite Jupiter Sextile Neptune: As a couple you will be known for your generosity, charity, and good will. You expect and see the best in each other, and in the world, which infuses your relationship with hope and a belief in a better tomorrow. Religious, humanitarian, or service-oriented work are favored. Numerous blessings of a spiritual as well as a material nature will come into your lives via your relationship with one another, especially if you remember to "Seek ye first the Kingdom..." Composite Sun Square Saturn: The necessity to get down to business, to work hard, and to be responsible adults is an essential aspect of your relationship. When the two of you are together a sense of heaviness, seriousness, purpose, or obligation weighs in on you, so it is not always pleasant to be around one another. You demand much - sometimes too much - of one another and of your relationship. One or both of you may become overly critical, oppressive, and restrictive toward the other. Financial hardships and burdens, difficult circumstances such as a chronic health problem, or other "battles" which require patience, endurance, forbearance, and toughness are also likely. Part of the purpose of this relationship is to develop these qualities within you both. While unlikely to be an easy relationship, it can be character-building and ultimately strengthening. Composite Venus Trine Saturn: This relationship has excellent prospects for longevity and permanent friendship. Ardor and high romance may or may not be included, but certainly constancy of feeling, commitment, and building something valuable together over time will be. The only drawback to this quality of steadiness which permeates your bond is a tendency to take one another for granted and to rely on each other in an unconscious way. You may forget to celebrate your love or to warmly show your appreciation for your partner, simply because they are always there, and you expect they always will be. As a couple, you two are able to successfully balance pleasure needs with practical considerations. You may appear rather subdued or frugal to other people, either in the way you spend money or the way you show love for one another. But if you are not seeking a flamboyant love affair, this quieter love may suit you both just fine. Composite Mars Opposition Saturn: In addition to whatever joys this relationship holds, there will be considerable frustration as well. Part of the purpose of your being together is to help you both define what you really want - but this happens through being deprived of or denied it. One or both of you feels that you cannot do what you want, or that you are constantly being checked, watched, and judged. Either that, or as a couple you will feel that outside circumstances and forces work against you. Life may seem like a great strain, a constant battle, a grind, a struggle against overwhelming odds. A certain grimness and pessimism can get in the way of your joint achievements. Inevitably, there will be a chronic, long-standing difficulty in this relationship which will require patience, forbearance, and persevering effort to overcome. It is important not to let an overall feeling of struggle and discouragement contaminate your entire relationship. What do you want? How much do you want it? And, what are you willing to do for it? are questions that will face you two. Composite Saturn Trine Pluto: Together you are capable of extreme dedication, concentration, and self-denial for the sake of a mutual goal. There is an obsessive, unrelenting quality to this. Certainly when the two of you combine forces to accomplish something, you are a formidable team capable of enduring and going the distance. You won't collapse under pressure or shirk the necessary hardships. However, you can be excessively one-sided, or may needlessly deny yourselves certain pleasures which you may consider distractions or a frivolous waste of energy. There may be a subtle tyranny going on, either towards yourselves, or one another. Unless you supply some gentleness and adaptability, what you achieve together in concrete terms may come at too dear a cost. Chapter 4 Other Themes in Your Relationship Yoko's Sun in John's 12th house: Even if you have been together for many years, Yoko will continue to be intriguing and somewhat mysterious to John. You have a knack for uncovering each other's hidden or repressed traits, and there is a deep, mysterious, perhaps even mystical quality to your relationship. John's Sun in Yoko's 1st house: John embodies many of the qualities and attributes to which Yoko aspires, and consequently John is a very interesting and attractive person to Yoko. Yoko's Moon in John's 8th house: As your relationship develops, a powerfully emotional bonding develops. Your feelings for each other are intense and can also be rather complex. Jealousy is possible and if things go wrong, you can hate each other with the same intensity that you once loved each other. If you marry or pool your resources but later separate from each other, you will have an extremely difficult time disentangling your mutually owned property, and you are likely to argue intensely over proper division of your joint assets. John's Moon in Yoko's 4th house: It is highly probably that you will become involved in domestic affairs together, even if your relationship is not a close one. You enjoy living together and sharing in cooking, home maintenance, and you feel like "family" with each other. Yoko's Mercury in John's 12th house: Yoko's conversation, interests, and way of looking at things perplexes John sometimes. Nonverbal communication may be more effective than trying to reason with one another. John's Mercury in Yoko's 2nd house: You enjoy planning financial strategies together, and John provides Yoko with lots of ideas on business ventures, investments, and practical application of job-related skills. Yoko's Venus in John's 11th house, John's Venus in Yoko's 11th house: You enjoy going out together and you will develop a love for the same friends, groups, and social activities. As a couple, you are outgoing and friendly, and will meet lots of new people and share many new experiences together. Yoko's Mars in John's 6th house: Yoko enjoys performing chores for John, and also takes an interest in John's work and health. Yoko enjoys assisting John in practical ways and the two of you are able to buckle down together and accomplish a great deal. John's Mars in Yoko's 12th house: John has a strong desire to know Yoko in a very intimate way, and often pressures Yoko to reveal innermost, hidden traits. Yoko, in turn, reveals more to John than to others. You enjoy times alone together, when you can be more intimate and less inhibited with each other. Yoko's Jupiter in John's 6th house: Yoko loves to be of practical service and help to John, though possibly reluctant to help out others. Yoko takes a great interest in John's health and overall well-being, and helps take care of day-to-day chores. John's Jupiter in Yoko's 8th house: There is a strong inclination to merge resources, talents, and energies. You tend to pool your resources and John, in particular, is not inclined to maintain a feeling of separateness from Yoko. This tendency to merge finances, resources, as well as feelings and living space draws you into a very personal, intimate relationship with each other, which you will have to use will power to avoid if you do not wish to be this close with each other. Yoko's Saturn in John's 11th house: Involvement with community, colleagues and organizations can become a critical issue in your relationship. Yoko, in particular, is likely to question and criticize John for involvement (or the lack of it) in various clubs, groups, or organizations. Also, you may both join an organization together, because of sharing a mutual enthusiasm, and both go through a period of disillusionment and sobering-up when the organization does not live up to expectations. Fortunately, these experiences are not likely to be extremely disconcerting to either of you, and, in fact, you will feel that you have both matured a great deal through the experiences. John's Saturn in Yoko's 8th house: If you are married or live together, you will find that finances and management of resources become a significant issue in your relationship. John is likely to be hesitant to freely provide and give as willingly as Yoko would like. One of you often wants to keep certain assets owned individually and is unwilling to share them. The problem may be more subtle also, and one of you is likely to feel at times that the other is selfish and unwilling to share, even if you cannot defend your reasons for feeling this way. You are also likely to find that attitudes towards sexuality and love-making are different, and your moods are not always in sync with each other. You may wish your mate were more sensitive, or more aggressive (or less aggressive), more romantic (or less romantic), etc. On the other hand, if both of you are able to avoid the tendency to be selfish at times and withhold feelings, you may find that you are able to overcome old habits of extravagance, poor judgment and lack of discernment in financial matters. Illusions about romance can also be replaced with more realistic views. Yoko's Uranus in John's 12th house: Yoko, directly or indirectly, makes John reconsider many basic assumptions about life. A fresh perspective on issues of religious faith and ethics is often discovered, and John may be able to break free from the limitations of current attitudes and beliefs that work primarily in a subconscious manner to make John harbor secret feelings of guilt or inadequacy. Much of this change is likely to occur simply via the very different perspectives and attitudes that Yoko has on certain issues, which encourages John to take a fresh look at issues of an innermost nature. John's Uranus in Yoko's 8th house: Your courtship undoubtedly took many unusual twists and turns. The attraction between you is powerful, and sometimes the "urge to merge" is almost irresistible. Sexual activity and love-making probably began very early in the relationship. Also, the way you jointly handle finances and investments is likely to take some unusual turns and the two of you may, for example, invest in some risky ventures. Also, if you marry and later divorce, both of you are likely to be surprised by the manner in which you agree to divide your joint resources. Yoko's Neptune in John's 6th house: John is often disappointed in the way that Yoko handles problems and performs various chores and tasks. John is likely to feel that Yoko is careless or sloppy. You approach many tasks in a very different manner from each other. This is not likely to create any serious problems, and can even add some interesting variety to your lives. John's Neptune in Yoko's 12th house: The two of you are likely to share a lot of secrets together. There is a great deal of fantasy and imagination that you share, and both of you may feel that it is inappropriate to bring this side of yourselves into the public. There is a strong spiritual or psychic bond that draws you together and there is an element of mystery to your relationship. You may share some very unusual, almost mystical, experiences together. Yoko's Pluto in John's 4th house: A lot of powerful emotions come to the surface in this relationship. Your attachment to each other can be very intense, and the possibility of arousing jealousy or hurt feelings is very strong. Unfortunately, both of you may let the feelings boil for quite a long time before expressing them. You need to be honest and open with each other because otherwise a complex knot of feelings can develop between you, developing into a love-hate relationship. John's Pluto in Yoko's 10th house: If this is a long-term relationship, John will have a critical effect on Yoko's career and ambitions. Circumstances arise that enable John to play a key role in helping steer Yoko's career along new lines, and to levels of greater stature and influence. John can help Yoko gain a whole new outlook on career opportunities and the best way to utilize personal talents, but this process is a complex and tricky one. The final outcome could be very successful or a failure, depending on how both of you handle the situation. Yoko's Sun Opposition John's Venus: Sparks fly when you come into contact with one another! Strong feelings of love, attraction, warmth, mutual admiration, and appreciation bring you together, and you are able to express your love feelings openly and fully to one another. You can be great friends and companions as well as lovers. John's Sun Opposition Yoko's Uranus: This relationship changes course suddenly and unexpectedly. There is a great deal of unpredictability to the relationship. At best, your relationship is exciting and unconventional, and at worst it leaves John frustrated by Yoko's unwillingness to be more committed and devoted to the relationship. The unpredictable nature of the relationship and the lack of constancy and security may cause either, or both, of you to feel very uncomfortable. Yoko's Sun Square John's Uranus: Your relationship is exciting, unpredictable, and stimulating. However, it tends to be explosive too, and there is the strong possibility that you will come together suddenly and unexpectedly, and will break up just as suddenly. If either of you is looking for a very stable, quiet, traditional, uneventful marriage with security, commitment, dependability, and predictability, then this is not the relationship for you! Together you will explore new possibilities and interests and break away from traditional, long-held beliefs and assumptions. Your sexual life, like other aspects of your lives, is exciting but not predictable and likely to vary from ecstatic to unsatisfying. You must be willing to be flexible and adaptable in all areas of life. Be wary, also, of letting your love for freedom and independence become a euphemism for being neglectful and inconsiderate of each other. Yoko's Asc. Trine John's Moon: There is a strong feeling of family and kinship between you. You have a natural affinity for each other and feel very at ease and comfortable with each other, so consequently your friendship is likely to be very long-lasting. Yoko's Mercury Opposition John's Venus: You enjoy discussing the arts, literature, and people. Your conversations are stimulating, although it is not unusual that you reach opposite conclusions. You may find that one of you (typically John) emphasizes the emotional side of a situation, issue, or problem and the other (typically Yoko) is more concerned with the strictly technical or intellectual side. |
