The aspects

30 December 1973, 12:00, Minneapolis, MN, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Jason 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 Mercury

Conjunction is actually the only aspect which the Sun and Mercury can form, because the maximum distance between them is less than 30 degrees (and so less than one astrological sign). You are usually a dynamic, moveable and persuasive person and usually have good ability of speech and communication. You quickly make conclusions and connections (unless Mercury is in another bad aspect or goes retrograde) and you often also have a good nose for business, you also master the art of bluffing. You have a sharp and quick mind, sense of detail and you are cunning, although you are also often talented in languages, writing, music and art. You are very sociable, also easy going and adaptable, that is why you have many acquaintances and friends and people, as a rule, like you and often invite you places. You have an audacious, curious and youthful nature and often also looks.

Sun trine Mars

With such a trine, you are usually a dynamic, active and hard-working person, you don't mind working and you get down to manifold jobs. You like constant happening and that things are moving, because you don't like being static. You are often making plans, you always look ahead and have some goal to fulfill or something you need to improve. When you feel the thrust and when you feel something is the real deal, you jump into it and have a lot of persistence and drive, but you aren't reckless and can judge, when something will have the right effect and when it is time to withdraw or think through and rest. You are always prepared, you are often in good physical condition and are good in balancing your physical abilities with the goals you set.

Sun square Pluto

You mostly have an impetuous and fiery nature and an enormous amount of inner strength, but unfortunately, you often can't or are unable to constructively direct and use it. You often get upset and are frequently hot-tempered and frustrated, you are also not very tactful and diplomatic. However, because of your temperament and exciting energy, you usually attract other people very much and often also have a strong influence on them. You are driven by a certain inner dissatisfaction or frustration, because of which you seem ambitious and stubborn, persistent and competitive, consequently often also successful.

Sun square Ascendant

With such an aspect in your natal chart, you are usually dynamic, energetic and also restless. You are impetuous, competitive, brave and audacious and enthusiastically (and often successfully) tackle all tasks and also your numerous and ambitious plans. However, you often harmonize all sides of your personality with difficulty and sometimes you, at the cost of one side, neglect the other sides. You often show a different image of yourself, which is different from who you really are. You like it when others notice you and have a need for being recognized, making a good impression on others is very important to you. Sometimes you are prone to snobbism.

Sun conjunction MC

The Sun which appears ˝highest˝ in the sky and which is also in conjunction with the axis of the 10th house (MC), actually has a similar influence as when it appears in Ascendant, but it influences you once your personality is already shaped and not so much the characteristics given to you at birth (which is the case with the Ascendant). Its influence is perhaps also not so visible in a physical sense (as in conjunctions with the Ascendant), so it perhaps doesn't influence your looks so much, but more what you radiate and your entire personality, which you build in life, which is tightly connected to the profession you do or the area in which you create. However, the Sun in this position often also influences your looks. You are well-natured and hearty, both in your feats and in leader position, which is not rare, because you often have leadership abilities and are also ambitious and people like and appreciate you because of your positive orientation and energy. You are successful in many professions and you act in manifold areas, most often in such which are in some way or another connected to the public.

You are interested in sport and are often also involved in it, you usually have a good sense of rhythm.

Mercury opposition Saturn

You are often torn between the new and the old; between progress and globalization on one hand and tradition, history and things being settled and tested on the other. In youth, you often associate with elders or more experienced people than you and learn a lot from them, although you constantly contradict them (because you don't always have the best opinion of authorities and also not relationships with them), through life and experiences you also put yourself in opposite role and have numerous contacts with young people or you become more perceptible to all possible approaches.

Mercury square Pluto

You are intensive and impetuous, you have a lot of energy, but you often don't know what to do with it and therefor can act irritably, argumentatively or even violently, especially verbally.
