I’ve always liked reading about asteroids. Although, not as high-profile as the planets and the luminaries, nonetheless, they shed a lot of light on issues connected with them. So if you are looking for answers, it’s worthwhile to factor them in.
Juno has a special place in synastry because of its association with marriage. Michael Wolfstar of http://neptunecafe.com/ once told me that he has seen Juno connections in most enduring marriages. Majority of the astrologers agree with this point of view. But not all (You didn’t think it was going to be non-controversial, did you?). Magi Astrology has a unique take: according to it, Juno rules affairs and mistresses and Chiron rules marriage. There are times when I am open to new ideas and so when I went through the Magi site, I decided to just to keep an open mind and spent several happy days reading the charts they had posted and their take on various things. If you want to explore this more check out the Magi at http://www.magiastrology.com/ So now when I want to look at synastry in two charts, I look at both asteroids.
But sometimes when you want the truth, you eventually find it sitting smiling right under your nose. My husband’s Juno is conjunct my ASC, to the degree! And the Juno of my great unrequited love is conjunct my ASC with an orb of one degree. I find these Juno connections rather startling and both men have played important roles in my life. Does this conclusively prove Juno rules marriage? I don’t know. Note the other guy was the great “unrequited” love of my life. Make what you will of it, but since the orbs are so tight, I thought it merited a mention here.
One thing you can bank on, though, is that if you are looking at couple synastry, Juno has an important role to play. If you want more concrete information on Juno, then head over to Sasstrology and look up Julie Demboski’s Juno series. Julie’s meticulous and detailed coverage of this asteroid is a learner’s delight. Even old astrology hands can benefit from her clear delineations. For case studies that you can sink in, you can do no better than Wolfstar’s http://neptunecafe.com/Juno.html
So the next time you find yourself wondering about lasting connections, hop over to you computer and check out the Juno linkages.
Thanks very much for the kind words–they’re much appreciated!

Wow, Mz Demboski! I’m a big fan of your work: thank you for sharing!
Hello nray. I like your posts and writing style. Will you please email me? I want to ask you something…
Hi, this post of your is very interesting indeed. My now ex boyfriend had his juno conjunct my ascendant to the degree aswell. Needless to say i want him back……
Hi Neeti — My Juno is exactly conjunct my husband’s Venus and within 4-5 degrees of his Moon and Jupiter. The hubbie’s Chiron is exactly conjunct my Moon which forms a tight square to my Neptune/Jupiter/Mercury conjunction (rulers of my Pisces Descendant/Virgo Ascendant). So there you have it!
Hi there, my two cents.
My Juno/Pluto is conjunct my great “unrequited” love of my life’s Ascendant.
My Chiron opposition his Juno/Pluto conjunction
His Saturn-Chiron Midpoint trine my Venus.
My Saturn-Chiron Midpoint opposition his Juno/Pluto conjunction
My Moon opposition his Juno/Pluto conjunction
His Moon conjunct my South Node
We have one Cinderella aspect:
His Chiron quincunx my Venus BUT my Venus square his Jupiter/Venus/Mercury conjunction
His Chiron in conjunct my Saturn.
We have a lot of bond and captivation by Saturn: My Saturn trine his Jupiter/Venus/Mercury conjunction. But has you read before, we have also Saturn Clashes also.
I felt that I have been his slave for about 14 years.
It was really always and only a sexual link between us and not even good sex.
I thought I was in love with him, but in fact, I was a slave of my father’s image in him. I wanted him to choose me, to love me, to repair what my father didn’t do when I was young. He never did it. He took only what he wanted and never gave me what I needed.
Good luck,
Isabelle
Fourteen years? Half a Saturn cycle. Time for a decision…
Thank you for sharing this, Isabelle.
Yes, half a Saturn cycle. That’s what I was thinking about. Hopefully, I am freeeeeee :))
thank you for your posts.
Isabelle
Hi:)
Thanks for this post.. My Juno conjunct my boyfriend’s mars, trine his moon venus and chiron, square his neptune, sextile north node
I hope all these connections might be helpful in terms of stability.
Hi there! I was just wondering…..how do you think juno aspecting the composite chart would play out? And what about the trine…does that work as well? Because the guy I’m dating right now has his juno conjunct our composite sun and my juno is conjunct our composite moon. Also, his juno is trine my moon. What do you think? Thank you so much!
Hi Neeti! I searched for “Juno conjunct ASC” and your blog post was first in the results. 🙂 Funny that you mention how this aspect shows up between you and your hubby and an unrequited love. I’m looking at the synastry of me and this guy who is convinced I’m The One. His Juno is conjunct my ASC to the degree. I don’t feel the same about him, though. His Saturn is also conjunct my ASC. But somehow I don’t believe him when he says he wants a commitment. His lifestyle is way too…open and roaming. No wonder with all of this in Sagittarius, right?
I’m studying the other asteroids and…we have oppositions and conjunctions.
Ceres opp. Ceres
Pallas opp. Pallas
Eros conj. Psyche
What do you make of this?
Btw, my Ceres is in Aries, so maybe that’s why we “click”. 🙂
I have experience of my Juno Saturn being conjunct someone’s ASC. Believe him 🙂
I don’t know much about the asteroids opposing in synastry. But the Eros conj. Psyche oughta be hot!
Nice take on Juno Ms. Ray. I haven’t really thought much about all the Juno connections but went back to check on my current relationship. Here’s what I found out:
We have:
1) My 8th house Juno quincunx his 11th house Juno
2) My Juno in Pisces makes a grand trine with his Moon (Scorpio) and Vesta (Cancer)
3) My Jupiter/Juno perfectly quintiles his earthly Saturn
4) My Jupiter/Juno sits on his IC to the degree
5) My Juno squares his Mars
6) His Juno quintiles both my Sun (12th house) and Moon (5th house)
7) His Juno squares my Mercury, conjunct my Uranus, sextile my North Node, oppose my Chiron, conjuncts my Vesta and sits on my anti-vertex
All these aspects are ranging from 0 to 3 degrees orb. Looking at these now, I couldn’t help but smile to myself. Indeed Juno rules marriage, whether it’s declared or not, acknowledged by the outside world or not. The man satisfied all my Juno requirements, especially integrating my Sun and Moon. Ours is a soulful inner marriage of body and consciousness with a lot of rough edges.
What does it mean when his juno conjuncts my pluto and north node??
Thanks 😀
This is fascinating.
I just met someone sort of randomly at the gym. well, I just joined & he was set up to be my trainer for free just to try it out. I’ve never really needed to join a gym in the past but I just turned 30 & had a baby 15 months ago.
Long story short, there was a lot of TENSION between us right away. We began talking, working out then it turned to FLIRTING. A part of me was even a bit scared & intimidated by him which doesnt happen often. He noticed that I was not making eye contact with him. But later said that I made him LAUGH a lot which is rare.
We are BOTH single. He has a couple boys & he is such a proud dad. When he found out I had a little girl, we discovered some common ground:)
I got his birth info since ASTROLOGY is my hobby. Lo & behold he has a LIBRA stellium of venus, mercury, mars, JUNO & pluto ALL to the degree of my ascendant (saturn/jupiter too)!!
There was such a strange sudden attraction for both of us. Within a week of meeting we has planned a date & started talking deeply about kids, family, our exes & he even trusted me to reveal things about his PAST that were painful.
The fact that he works in place I always called a “meat” factor lol. Obviously he meets a lot of women who want more than just a WORKOUT. I’m not that naive. He even hinted that he had hooked up with people at the guy however, I FEEL he sees me differently for some reason there has been NO pressure for s- – yet he ALWAYS finds ways to be close.
The point of the story here – all those planets on my ASC. has got to mean something significant. I usually dont go for his type of guy either – hes a little shorter than I usually am attracted to but there is something very charming & sweet about him.
Hi I have juno conjuction Neptune,Jupiter Ceres and vesta and trine mars and north node opposition juno I really want to know what it means

If both saturn square juno…..it mean that never that two person can marriage?
I always thought it was interesting that Juno doesn’t always equate to marriage. It all depends on how the relationship manifests outside of synastry. For example, me and my ex shared a ton of Juno connections in our synastry
His Juno was conjunct my Mars, Vertex, North Node, and Descendant in Virgo and Libra (his Juno is in Virgo at 29 degrees so they aren’t exact, but they still count!)
There’s a lot of trines, squares, and oppositions with other planets but these are the one’s that stood out the most.
Also my Juno is conjunct his Saturn and Ascendant in Aries.
Obviously we never married. I think we were just meant to be partners, but the funny thing is we often joked about marrying each other!
