Vertex trine moon synastry2/23/2024 To demonstrate how powerful a Vertex axis connection can be I will use the charts of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. ![]() If the Vertex axis is active, it takes precedence over the other angles. If you have a planet conjunct the Vertex axis it tends to make this axis the most powerful in your natal chart. Planets involved in Vertex axis connections usually describe the quality of the relationship, so one person’s Mars on another person’s Vertex would tend to give a very active and perhaps aggressive or passionate relationship, whereas one person’s Venus on the others Vertex axis would tend to give a gentle, sensual, loving relationship. The book and film “The Bridges of Madison County” starring Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep, described this type of relationship. An association with someone can last a few minutes or a lifetime but you always remember it. These positions can describe the type of relationships that pull people together even if there are almost impossible obstacles to overcome, or if there seems to be no common ground for the couple. The Vertex axis conjunct any of the angles, in exact conjunction with house cusps and/or activating a planet in the other’s chart gives a feeling of ‘destiny’ in a relationship. Like Jayne and his students I found that the Vertex axis can be a very powerful factor in relationships. This has given me a whole Saturn return period of “hands on” research with thousands of people. To explore how it worked I adjusted the calculations to the Southern Hemisphere and then studied its effect on my clients when it was activated by transits, Solar Arcs and Progressions. ![]() I first discovered the Vertex around 1976-77. He felt that the western point, the Vertex, was the strongest side of the axis. He and his students researched this further and came to the conclusion that the Vertex axis seemed to describe fateful or karmic encounters with others which completely changed the lives of those involved. The late Charles Jayne of New York (9 October 1911, 10.53 pm, Jenkintown, PA, – antiVertex conjunct Mars in Gemini) also deduced that the Vertex was a very important point in a natal chart. He felt that the Vertex was the electrical, the Ascendant the magnetic and the MC the gravity axis in a natal chart. He called the western axis of this point the Vertex and the eastern the antiVertex. He reasoned that if the Ascendant was determined by the intersection of the Great Circles of the Ecliptic and Horizon and the MC was determined by the intersection of the Great Circles of the Meridian and Ecliptic, there should also be a very sensitive point of energy at the intersection of the Great Circles of the Prime Vertical and the Ecliptic. Edward Johndro (30 January 1882, 12.30 am, Franklin Center, Canada – Vertex conjunct South Node in Gemini) first presented the Vertex for consideration to the astrological world.
