How these two meet
Taurus and Taurus: nothing here was decided, it accumulated.
The house is comfortable in a way visitors comment on, and neither of you can tell them how it was done, because it was not done. It accumulated.
Every object in it was chosen once and has not been reconsidered since.
That is true of the arrangements as well, and it is true of a few of the opinions.
Venus assigns a value and defends it without argument, and turns retrograde 63 times a century, less of its life spent going backwards than any other planet here. Two of those means nothing in this building has ever been up for revision at the same time.
So the question of when something was decided has no answer in this house. Not because either of you is evasive: because there was no moment. There was a first time it happened, and then it was how things are.
And nobody has noticed, because noticing would need somebody in the house who reopens things, and there is not one.
What has been decided here that nobody remembers deciding?
For one of you, the work is naming one arrangement out loud and saying that it was a choice.
For the other, the work is not defending it when that happens.
And a third: you are both going to want to say that it works. It does work. That is not the question that was asked.
Venus decides what a thing is worth and does not reopen it, and there are two of those here and nothing between them that pushes.
So what in this house is still here because it is good, and what is still here because it arrived first?
The same thirty degrees
Nought degrees apart, because it is the same thirty degrees of sky. Two people under one sign share an element, a modality and a ruling body, and the wheel offers nothing here to negotiate. That is the whole situation: no friction built in, and no counterweight either. Whatever this sign does well happens twice over, and whatever it looks away from, nobody in the room is built to notice.
The ruler
One sign, one ruler. Venus spends less of its life going backwards than any of the five planets, 7.3 per cent of it, and it turns retrograde 63 times a century against Mercury’s 315, so its reversals are rare enough to be events. It never gets more than 47.3 degrees from the Sun, and it is the brightest thing in the sky after the Sun and the Moon. Few changes of mind, and no way at all of being in the room quietly.

A sign is still a general lens: it says nothing about where your Moon or your Venus actually fell. A synastry report reads your two real birth charts against each other, with the aspects that are genuinely there.
