Aspects between planets are an important part of modern Astrology. As the planets move in their elongated orbits around the Sun, they form various angular relationships with one another, using the Sun or Earth as the center — these are called aspects. The most popular aspects result from dividing the circle by numbers like 1,2,3,4, resulting in aspects such as the conjunction (0 degrees), opposition (180 degrees), trine (120 degrees), square (90 degrees), and so forth, but there are many more aspects to consider with interpretation of an astrological chart.
When two planets form an aspect with one another, their energies and natures combine and work together. For example, when two planets are exactly on opposite sides of the Sun (earth), they are in opposition.
Keep in mind the meaning of the first house in interpretation of an astrological chart when interpreting the sign on its cusp. The first house reveals our defense mechanisms and first reactions to new stimuli, how we instinctively react to a new situation, how we appear to others (the “first impression” we make on a personal level), our mannerisms and physical bearing, and our physical form. The sign on the first house is the Ascendant or Rising Sign.
The two most fundamental energies in interpretation of an astrological chart are the Sun and the Moon. While the Sun is the most yang, projective, giving us our sense of individual self and purpose, the Moon is the most yin, receptive, providing us with the application of our purpose. The Sun is the light and life of our system. The Moon being the closest heavenly body to us controls the rhythm of the sea and all its creatures as well as the flow of blood in the human body. As the Moon distributes the light of the Sun each night, we experience this partnership and are able to understand their relationship in forming the personality of the human being.
