#like their friendship is so overlooked in the monkees discussion. or at least i feel that way. the two of them obviously got on well enough

I’m in the middle of studying astrology at my local library rn and just kind of came up with this theory, if you will, that I think would be worth sharing.

I think Mike related and liked Micky much more over Peter mainly because since Micky and Mike have quite a handful of samesies placements (Asc/Dec/IC/MC/Rx Jupiter/T-Square and Yod formations/Cardinal + Mutable signs prominent; too lazy to locate similar aspects but there is for sure) they view and may even experience life in a similar fashion, so they really were leaning on each other whenever they had an event in their life - be it good or bad - because they know what it’s like, naturally empathetic for one another. There’s a lot of examples I could throw in which enough should prove that. And it’s not that Peter and Mike don’t have some natal chart relations, because they do. But compared to Mike and Micky, it doesn’t make a single dent compared to those two.

KALE!!!! (i hope you don't mind me using your name btw) DUDE, BUDDY, AND PAL!!!! THIS IS AMAZING WORK!!!! oh man i loved this so, so, so much thank you for being the REALEST and doing this research!!!

and honestly i can see this completely!!! i think i know some of the examples you are referring to as well of them leaning on each other (like micky and mike conferring on how they should handle touring after davy's passing, and also mike reaching out to micky before deciding to appear on portlandia). in general there are just so many little throw away comments they've made, micky especially, that leads me to believe that the two of them definitely turned to one another throughout their time in the monkees and beyond to make decisions/seek reassurance

EDIT!!! -> how could i forget when mike came out and performed with micky during one of micky's solo tour dates or when micky went to see mike when he was touring solo!!! not to mention micky wearing a first national band t-shirt during one of their monkees concerts.....
