The aspects

3 March 1847, 07:00, Edinburgh, United Kingdom

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Alexander as “you”.

Important elements of every horoscope are also the aspects – they are angles which the planets and other important points form with each other.

Here, we consider six most important aspects: Conjunction (0 degrees), Sextile (60 degrees), Square (90 degrees), Trine (120 degrees), Inconjunction (150 degrees), Opposition (180 degrees).

The more accurate the angle between two planets is, the more important and influential is their relationship in your horoscope. When calculating the aspects, we also consider a certain deviation, which depends on the importance of the aspect and the planets involved (deviation can be anywhere from 5 to 10 degrees of the exact angle).

There are also many smaller aspects, which are only important, if they are very accurate (up to 1 degree) and they, of course, have smaller power or influence. They can be of help with a more detailed and deeper analysis or description of personal horoscope, but for now, we do not take them into consideration.

Continue reading the analysis for all your aspects.

Sun conjunction Ascendant

The Sun in such position emphasis both characteristics of the Sun sign as well as the sign in which the Ascendant is. Despite in which sign they are, they mark that you are, as a rule, a hearty person who has a positive attitude towards life, are sincere and cheerful, have a pleasant look and are usually also healthy (if other positions or aspects don't indicate differently, and also in this cases it makes other, worse aspects, if they are present, milder).

Moon opposition Mercury

Such aspect usually brings exaggerated sensitivity and inner unrest; you are extremely sensitive to stimuli from the environment and you react to everything strongly and often exaggeratedly. You gather all imprints and often have problems distinguishing between what is really important and between unimportant information, because you absorb everything intensely. Therefore, you are often involved with unimportant trivialities and you give them too much importance. You are eager, sometimes slapdash and consequently also dispersed and forgetful. You often start doing things, but don't finish them. You need firmness, stability and mild guidance. It is advisable for you to express yourself in creative ways (drawing, painting, writing, music, etc.) and to nurture attention and dedication.

Moon opposition Venus

This aspect influences strong emotions and sometimes gives the feeling of inner unfulfillment, so although you are shy, you are often greedy in your emotions and responses; you quickly get upset and react strongly. Because you invest a lot in emotional relationships, you sometimes expect too much, so in this area you often experience disappointment. Being too enthusiastic, you sometimes experience just the opposite of what you want, so with excessive display of love, which is actually an eager desire for it, you drive away some people instead of attracting them. You love pleasures of all kinds (and if other positions or aspects contribute to it, you can be prone to having health issues, such as problems with circulation and obesity). For you it is advisable to be in contact with nature; contact with earth and water is very healing.

Compassion is actually your test, so is accepting people and events (which you can't change) the way they are.

Moon square MC

You are enterprising and ambitious, but often very sensitive to the opinion of others, especially to criticism and you sometimes face your shortcomings and/or flaws with difficulty. Sometimes you set goals that are too high and lose will on the way, that is why it is useful for you to set smaller goals and to fulfill them as you go along and gradually.

Saturn conjunction Ascendant

You are usually a reliable, hard-working, disciplined, polite and respectful, yet serious and reserved person who finds it hard to relax and enjoy. Others perceive you cold, but often you are only very shy or were perhaps also brought-up to be shy. Circumstances from your earliest life definitely have a strong influence on your posture presence and behavior, perhaps there wasn't enough love or warmth, gentleness and expressing of feelings in your environment, which later influences your life and your emotional relationships, which are not always the warmest and hearty. You can have a very serious character and seem older even as a child, but this usually changes as you mature and you become more vivacious and often also youthful, once you overcome your inner uncertainty and self-doubt.
