Karmic Love--Finding Past Life Romantic Links

by Rose Murray

The information below is from a

handout I gave out at my workshop
on the subject of karmic links at the
July 2000 convention of the
American Federation of Astrologers
in Las Vegas, NV.
.....Did you know each other in a past life? Did
you feel an instant sense of familiarity when
you met? Here are some of the karmic links in
astrology charts which I believe show such a
connection. Although there are more, these are
some that are frequently seen between the
charts of two individuals who feel a karmic
connection. If you share two or more of these
links, the relationship may be karmic. Some
couples have as many as four or five of them.
1. One South Node conjunct other's Moon. The
South Node person finds the Moon person
familiar because the South Node represents
one's past, and so does the Moon.
In the world of celebrity, Paul Newman and
Joanne Woodward are a Hollywood couple
whose marriage has defied the usual odds.
They have several strong karmic links. His
South Node in Aquarius is seven degrees from
her Moon. In my private files, there are many
charts in which this aspect is even closer.
2. One Moon or Moon ruler conjunct the other's
IC or IC ruler. Here the Moon representing the
past is compared with the IC, symbolizing
one's roots in the past.
Sometimes the Moon of one will be on the IC

(4th-house cusp) of the other. Sometimes the

planetary ruler of the Moon in one chart will be
conjunct the IC of the other. Sometimes both
Moons may be conjunct or the Moon ruler of
one will be on the IC of the other. Example:
Banderas & Griffth--His IC ruler conjunct her
IC.
3. Your 12th house is said to represent the
karma you are working on in this lifetime, often
from your most recent past life. If there are
conjunctions between the rulers of or planets
in your 12th house and a partner's 12th
houses, you may feel a strong connection to
the other person. The link may reveal some
mutual karma to work out in this life together.
Often the planets and houses involved show
what that karma might be.
Example: Newman & Woodward--Their
12th-house planets conjunct.
Also Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner, whose
tempestuous marriage didn't last long but was
said to be very intense. Their 12th-house rulers
were conjunct.
4. Strong Sun/Saturn ties. These may be
between natal charts or in the composite chart
of the couple, in which Sun and Saturn may be
conjunct. One variation of this is that the Sun
and Saturn may not only be conjunct in the
composite, but the composite Sun may be on
the natal Saturn of one of the pair. Sun/ Saturn
ties also show links in your own chart with
your own past lives.
Example: Richard & Henrietta King of the
famous King Ranch in Texas. In their
composite chart, they had five planets
conjunct in Cancer, including Sun and Saturn.
See their story in my book, When Planets
Promise Love (Llewellyn, 1999).
5. Parts of Karma in significant aspect to each
other's charts. The Part of Karma formula is
Ascendant plus Saturn minus Sun, and thus is
often tied in with Sun/Saturn placements
between lifetimes and between shared past
lives.
Example: From my private files, two cases in
which married couples have their Parts of
Karma in the same degree of the zodiac. Also

you may see this Arabic Part conjunct the

other's Sun, Moon, Ascendant, Midheaven, or
other important point. Examples of this show
up in the charts of Newman and Woodward,
Banderas and Griffth, and many others.

The Hidden Degrees That Make a Big

Difference
In any of these links, see also the solstice
points and complementary points (the opposite
degree from the solstice point) of any of the
planetary positions above. They act like
conjunctions, but are often overlooked in a
chart comparison. For instance, in #1 above, if
your South Node or Moon is at 8 degrees of
Aries, the solstice point of that position would
be 22 Virgo. Its complementary point would be
22 Pisces. The solstice point of Taurus is
always in Leo (its opposite point in Aquarius).
The solstice pont of Gemini is always in
Cancer (its complementary point in Capricorn).
The solstice point of Leo is in Taurus, of Virgo
in Aries, of Libra in Pisces, of Scorpio in
Aquarius, of Sagitarrius in Capricorn, of
Capricorn in Sagittarius, of Aquarius in
Scorpio, of Pisces in Libra.
The degree of a solstice point is always a
mirror image. There are 30 degrees in each
sign. The mirror image of 1 degree is always 29
degrees, of 2 degrees, 28 degrees, of 3
degrees, 27 degrees, etc.. In other words, the
zodiac point and its solstice point must
together add up to 30 degrees.
