Synastry
• Lots of planets falling in 12th house of other person. If those planets are badly aspected than the planet person might be prone to cheating, especially when Venus, Mars or Saturn is sitting in your 12th house and receives bad aspects from your planets. There are hidden situations going on.
• A person’s 12th ruler falling in your 12th house means that the other is keeping secrets from you, but you are likely to be the one to be ‘ahead of time’ and already figured out what their secrets are. You know the secrets of your partner, but you keep their secrets secret from them 😉 I know this one is a bit tricky.
