True, but I think the report was one based off the full wheel...it said a bunch of stuff like [this planet] trine [that planet] and then some +/- numbers for whether it is a positive or negative aspect...sorry I didn't make this clear >.<
The +/- numbers aren't positive or negative aspects, they show the degrees of orb for the aspect. A trine, for example, is two planets that are 120 degrees apart, give or take up to 4-10 degrees (astrologers differ on how many degrees can be given or taken before an aspect is no longer an aspect). If it said these two planets are trine +4, that means they're 124 degrees apart. Still a trine, but not exactly 120 degrees.
Aspects in and of themselves are not positive or negative. They might be called hard aspects or soft aspects, or challenging aspects or easy aspects, but that just tells you how those particular planets play off each other. It doesn't tell you much about how well you'll get along with this person. That's determined mainly by where each of you is in your personal development. Birth chart synastry can show an overall predisposition to compatibility (or lack thereof), but whether that predisposition is activated or not depends on how each of you responds to it.
If the report included statements about your compatibility with this person, that was just cookbook astrology, which doesn't mean much. Cookbook astrology is just a series of general statements... "sun conjunct Venus means this, Mars square Mercury means that, etc"... and once you get beyond two or three of those statements, they start contradicting each other. It takes a person knowledgeable about synastry to give it a real interpretation and put the pieces together in a way that doesn't contradict. The same goes for interpreting individual birth charts.
