I'd say the latter definition is synastry. But I don't know about Davison.I prefer composite and I stay away from synastry.
Why do you prefer the composite over synastry?

It's safer. It has less influence over a relationship and it gives answers for why someone would be repeatedly attracted to a certain type of relationship rather than a specific person, so it's easier for them to see where they can work on their side of things.

Where would you see, that you attract a certain type of relationship in the chart? I could use some self evaluation these days.

Take your chart, and all your exes/affairs - draw up a composite with each of them, and if you see the same planetary pattern then you have something there. Otherwise it can be a smaller pattern, like a common aspect or common planet in a sign or house that keeps popping up.

I'm going to do this with composites!
I noticed with Davison I have 7th house water relationships

The composite takes the midpoints between each of the planets and doesn't actually exist in time or space. Where as the Davison chart is the midpoint between the birth chart information. So the argument is that the Davison is real because it's actually existed in time and space. But to be honest I don't really care about that. I just noticed that I feel my Davison charts are more accurate than my composite charts in my pairings. So I'm just wondering if people checked them both out, what people think makes more sense to them.

I think I've asked this in this past.
But which chart do you prefer?
I think I've resonated a lot more with the Davison, myself.
I've also read somewhere that some astrologers view composites as the kind of shell of a relationship, like how other people percieve it... and the Davison as what's going on personally between the two people.
What do you think?
