		<description>While they are a bit basic, I still read these types of posts.  You never know where some new insight may crop up.  I haven&#039;t commented because I&#039;m waiting for a post with a sign relevant to me to come up but I definitely noticed.</description>

		<description>I think that Venus/Mars combos are a good middle ground, Jeff -- for the beginner, the intermediate student and even the more advanced students can extract additional insight by the certain wording of something. Does that make sense?</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;Christine&lt;/b&gt;, thanks for your feedback. You make some very valid points. I agree that there are many websites that already feature Sun sign compatibility descriptions, so why do we need another? -- except that I want to capture some of that traffic. At the same time, I &lt;i&gt;do&lt;/i&gt; want Sasstrology to be deeper than that. I&#039;m trying to find some balance between depth and accessibility. If I may use an example, I posted four parts of a series on Juno, and after the first one, there seemed to be little involvement from readers -- so I questioned if that many Sass readers really want to know about asteroids. Anyways, the current plan is for Fern to write Venus/Mars compatibility posts -- a topic that is astrologically deeper but still something an intermediate student can understand.</description>

		<description>Jeff, 

I agree with &quot;me.&quot; I think Sun Sign compatibility can be searched for with abundant results on the internet and there is an entire section dedicated to Sun Sign compatibility on the forum for personal advice and discussion. It seems that readers can get a general feel for the different qualities of the signs to piece together the compatibility portion by themselves--without an astrologer. What would be interesting are more &lt;i&gt;specific&lt;/i&gt; placements. As far as synastry goes, I personally would like to read about house overlays, effects of asteroids, what marks spiritual compatibility/connections, or what marks I-hate-you-and-can&#039;t-get-along-with-you-but-I-must-be-with-you connections. It&#039;s hard to find quality information of that nature on the web or even in the book stores I&#039;ve visited. Whatever the case is, it&#039;s important, I feel, to provide information that provides insight into the deeper, psychological underpinnings of some astrological things that aren&#039;t available on the web (especially since this is where I&#039;m assuming most of the members get their information). When deciding if something should be posted, I feel it&#039;s important to determine two things: can it be easily searched for on the web and can readers understand the concept easily? I mean, one example is this. I had been searching for valuable insight on Mars in Pisces for the longest, and I found the only satisfying description here on this site! (I soon found others in books, but still!)</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;pensivegemini&lt;/b&gt;, if I had the funds to have a writer churn out every combination in one sitting and publish them all at once, I would, but I don&#039;t. I could even do it myself, but it would still take a long time. 

I think this is a case of not being able to satisfy everyone all the time. There are many different levels of knowledge among readers. If I write for advanced readers then newbies won&#039;t understand. If I write for newbies, advanced readers might get bored. I think the only solution is to mix it up.</description>
