The sky match counts the close angles between two charts, gives most weight to the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars, and adds a little for a shared Sun, Moon or rising sign. Where StarMap has no verified birth time the chart is cast for midday and the Moon's angles are not counted, so the figure is approximate. It says nothing about whether a relationship lasts.
Where their personal planets meet
Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars move quickly, so these angles belong to Bruce and Diane and to few other pairs. Angles to the Moon are left out where there is no birth time.
Bruce’s Venus opposition Diane’s Sun
about 0.5° from exact
Diane's Sun and Bruce's Venus meet at a hard angle. The attraction is read as real but uneven: what Bruce finds lovely is not always what Diane is proudest of, and the two tastes have to be negotiated.
Bruce’s Mercury opposition Diane’s Sun
about 1.0° from exact
Diane's Sun and Bruce's Mercury are at cross angles, which astrologers read as a gap between what one person means and what the other hears. The remedy in the tradition is plain: say it twice, in different words.

Bruce’s Mercury opposition Diane’s Mercury
about 6.9° from exact
Their Mercuries are at a hard angle. Bruce and Diane are read as minds that work differently, one quick and one thorough, or one literal and one playful, which makes for lively argument.
Bruce’s Sun opposition Diane’s Sun
about 7.3° from exact
Their Suns are at odds by angle, the classic signature of two strong wills that go about life differently. Synastry reads this less as a verdict than as a source of heat: each keeps the other from settling into habit.
Personal planets and slow ones

Relationship data from Wikidata, stated as Wikidata records it. Birth dates and places from Wikidata; birth times, where StarMap has one, from Astro-Databank with their Rodden rating. Positions are computed with the astronomy-engine ephemeris and checked against Swiss Ephemeris. The readings describe what an angle is traditionally taken to mean and are written by StarMap for reflection and entertainment, not as statements about the two people’s private lives.
