🌤 an introduction to aspects

what are they?

aspects are connections between the planets in a birth chart or between planets and the angles or the nodal axis.

what do they mean/symbolize?

they create dynamic movement which reflects inner psychological patterns.

how do they work?

they’re based on number symbolism. aspects are formed from a specific root number in which the circle of the chart is divided by to create an angular relationship. also, each aspect has an “orb”, which means it holds true for a certain number of degrees; the tighter the orb, the more we feel it.

types of aspects:

major aspects

form the main dynamics of the chart

based on numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 6

the conjunction (root 1) - planets in conjunction form a unity; inseparable from each other, blending their energies

the opposition (root 2) - planets in opposition reflect an internal dilemma arising; might identify with one side, but project the other

the trine (root 3) - the trine creates an easy flow between planets; represents talent and things we find enjoyable

the square (root 4) - planets in square tend to be productive; can be inhibited to express our drives fully

the sextile (root 6) - with sextiles, we are motivated to put in a little work, but also feel relaxed expressing whatever is indicated by them

minor aspects

based on numbers 8, 12

the semisquare (root 8) and sesquiquadrate (root 8) - these carry a similar quality to the square, but with less intensity

the semisextile (root 12) and quincunx (root 12) - these aspects generate frustration, as they can be a blind spot or a set of skills that needs our conscious focus in order to achieve or fulfill

wonder wednesday #1

☔️ a few astrology notes

based on the people i know

virgo ascendants tend to have long, rectangular face shapes with defined cheek bones.

someone with their venus in libra—while having a few other placements in libra—sometimes have a difficult time staying in romantic relationships.

taurus moons have a MAD case of low self esteem.

when blamed for something, or when they fail/do something wrong, aries moons usually make excuses and blame unrelated things for what they did.

those with a lot of placements in the 6th house constantly desire the feeling of being at service to others, especially strangers.

those that have a stellium of libra in venus, mars, and jupiter are so amazing at sympathizing with others and helping them to feel better, however, because of their people pleasing aspects, they are very fake.

mercury in aries is a placement i never want to argue with or mess with because they are so scary.

those with an incredibly high amount of capricorn placements are very humanitarian and take care of everyone, even at the cost of all of their happiness.

those with mercury in capricorn are my FAVORITE people on the planet.

[lucentpisces]
