Lilith Rebellion’s Handy Guide to the Astrological Alphabet (with a bit of helpful context): Planets, and other celestial bodies in the solar system, create angles with each other as they orbit at differing speeds. In astrology these angles are called aspects. The Earth (at the centre of the natal chart) is always the axis of the angle formed between two other planets. The nature of the aspect will modify the energy expression of two aspecting planets in the person’s life. The 5 Major Aspects: Aspect symbol Aspect meaning The Conjunction, 0.0 The conjunction can be harmonious or inharmonious, depending on the nature of the planets involved. The energy of the two planets are fused together and they may act as one (especially with a tight conjunction). The Opposition, 180 The opposition is considered a inharmonious or challenging aspect. It is as if the planets involved, are having a tense confrontation and fighting for dominance in the person’s life. The goal is integration and wholeness, which might involve possible compromise. The Square, 90 The square is considered a inharmonious or challenging aspect, but potentially easier to manage than the opposition. It is as if the planets involved in the 90 aspect, are having an argument. Like with the opposition, the tension and challenge inherent in this aspect can act as a creative stimulus in the person’s life that propels them forward as they seek to integrate the planetary energies. The Trine, 120 The trine is considered a harmonious aspect and indicates that the planets are working well together. It is as if the planets involved in the trine are having an enjoyable and reciprocal conversation. The trine often indicates natural giftings in a natal chart that we may be at risk of taking for granted because they come easily to us. The Sextile, 60 The sextile is also considered a harmonious aspect, but it may take more conscious effort to utilize this beneficial energy exchange between the planets, in contrast to the trine. *There are a number of “minor aspects” in addition to the major aspects, but if you are just starting out, focus on the major aspects for now! The minor aspects have a more subtle influence. Orbs are the degree to which an aspect can deviate from the exact angle and still have an impact on the two planets involved. Generally no more than an 8 orb is recommended for major aspects, but if the sun or moon are involved in the aspect, a person may still feel the aspect at a 9-10 deviation from the exact angle.
