- PLANETS
IN ASPECT
- In astrology, an
"aspect" is a geometric relationship
between two planets. Aspects are important in analyzing a
horoscope because they seem to make the two connected planets function
together or be linked. The aspects considered here are just
the major ones: the conjunction, sextile, square, trine and opposition.
You can find some info on each of these below or go straight to the
mini readings on the various planetary aspects by using these links:
- The
Aspect Graph chart from Astrodienst
- This is perhaps the most
difficult area for the
beginner since the chart information on aspects is all in symbols. If
you are a beginner trying to understand aspects, you will need to
obtain the horoscope chart from the
Astrodienst
Atlas.
-
- Astrology-Numerology.com
only discusses the major
aspects formed by the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter.
There is an aspect grid on the Astrodienst chart in the lower
left hand part of the page. The grid shows the aspects that we are
interested in, but it also shows some of the minor aspects which are
best ignored for now. The major aspects shown on the grid are based on
a
rather wide orb. An aspect with a very wide orb won't be as
strong as ones that are closer to exact. Many of you may wish to figure
out the aspects on
your own. If you have difficulty figuring the aspects and want to get
into this more, visit here
for more assistance.
The
Conjunction.
The
conjunction is formed when two planets are at approximately the same
degree of the same sign. If this symbol appeared on the
fourth row of the graph under the symbol for the Sun, it would mean
that the Sun and Venus were in conjunction. If it appeared
under the symbol of the Sun on the 10th row it would mean that the Sun
and Pluto (see Pluto note below) were in conjunction. In a conjunction,
the energies of the two planets are combined, and often the result is a
strengthening of both.
Note:
The symbol looking like the letters P & L combined on the atlas
graph, is the original symbol for Pluto.
The
Sextile.
Sextiles occur when two planets are approximately 60 degrees* apart.
This is the aspect of opportunity.
The
Square.
Squares
occur when two planets are approximately 90 degrees* apart.
Square cause the friction and the hurdles that causes us to
grow and become productive.
The
Trine.
A trine occurs when two planets are approximately 120
degrees* apart. Trines bring about ease and comfort.
The
opposition.
The opposition occurs when two planets are about 180 degrees*
apart. As the name implies, opposition are obstacles that
must be resolved.
- *Note
that Astrodienst places the number of degrees and minutes that the
aspect deviates from the precise aspect in the box under the aspect
symbol. The deviation is called the orb. It appears to me
that the orb allowed by Astrodienst is too great.
-
- Recommended
orbs:
- Sun and Moon
(sometimes called the lights):
conjunctions 8°, squares, trines, oppositions 7°,
sextiles 5°
-
 Planets:
conjunctions 6°, squares,
trines, oppositions 5°, sextiles 3°
Therefore, I would
personally choose to ignore some of
the aspects shown on the grid when the orb is larger.
Start with the Sun, then
the Moon, and in order,
Mercury, Venus and Mars. List all of the aspects that apply.
Now go find and record the probable meaning of each aspect.
