What Are Aspects?

An aspect is the angle between two planets, based on the number of degrees separating them. For instance, the birth wheel is a round, pie shaped chart which consists of 12 sections, each of which consists of 30 for a total of 360. If Mars and Venus (or any other planets) are both in, say, Leo, there is no separation; these planets are considered conjunct, or occupying the same space. However, if Neptune were in Sagittarius we would say that Mars in Leo is trine or 120 away from Neptune in Sagittarius. This means that Neptune and Mars are four signs apart or four sections of 30, or 120 away from each other. Trine is the aspect.

Though there are many aspects in astrology, only major aspects are defined below.  

Conjunct     (Conjunction)
0

A conjunct aspect is one of the most powerful aspects in astrology.      When two planets are conjunct, their power is multiplied to have a dramatic effect on your horoscope. Although this power occasionally combines destructively, a conjunction is usually a beneficial influence on your chart. If these two planets have negative aspects with other planets in your chart, however, the conjunction may intensify this negative energy. Similarly, if the two planets have positive and harmonious aspects with the other planets, the conjunction will magnify the positive energy.

Sextile
60

A sextile aspect is harmonious and generally positive. The influences of two planets are combining in a positive way, perhaps presenting favorable opportunities. This beneficial influence will only work in your favor, however, if you invest the required effort.

Square
90

A square aspect is unharmonious and discordant. The negative influences of two planets are combining to produce discord, strain and friction. Your strength of character is challenged.

Trine
120

A trine aspect is the most favorable aspect. Like the perfect symmetry of an equilateral triangle (in which the three corners are each 120 degree angles), a trine aspect is perfectly harmonious. The beneficial influences of two planets are combined and multiplied to produce positive energy, harmony & balance.

Quincunx
150

Planets that are five positions away from each other (5 x 30) are said to be in a quincunx relationship to each other. Generally, a quincunx is considered a neutral aspect, but when Saturn is involved, it always forms a Turbulent Aspect with the companion planet.

Opposite
180

The opposite aspect is unharmonious. The influence of two planets are at cross-purposes, pulling you in different directions. The result is discord, difficulties and strain in your life. It could also represent a challenge or minor obstacle or that a part of your life is going awry.
