Checked against chance
How common is Node sextile Saturn in synastry?
The North Node and Saturn stood 60° apart in the sky in 1943, 1946–47, 1954, 1958 and 8 other stretches, so people born then carry the angle in their own chart. Between two people the share stays near the geometry, 0.2 points below it. Both ways at once — each partner's North Node to the other's Saturn, the "double whammy" — in 1.08% of couples, about one in 93. The age gap changes little: 5.57% to 7.83% at any gap up to 40 years.
