The way we work together
When the Luminaries, Planets, or other Astrological points form angles to one another in the night sky, they are considered to be aspecting one another. An Astrologer will read these combinations of angles to interpret how the energies of these celestial bodies energetically interact. Depending on the luminaries or planets involved as well as the angle of the aspect, the energies can cause a range of results in the natives who have these aspects in their birth charts.
Aspects are also a critical piece in understanding transits, which are ways we interpret the energetic events in our lives. As a student of Astrology, the more you understand the five main aspects listed on this page, the better grasp you will have in understanding how to effectively read transits. Understanding aspects will also give you a much deeper ability to expand your knowledge in getting to the root of challenges and gifts outlined in a birth chart.
Some aspects embody easy energy between points in a chart and others more challenging energy. Read on to learn more about what these aspects signify and how they influence the art of Astrology.
