“The Italian philosopher Vico had this theory that time moves more in a spiral than it does in a line. He believes that’s why we repeat ourselves, including our tragedies, and that if we are more faithful to this movement, we can move away from the epicenter through distance and time, but we have to confront it every time. I’ve been thinking about trauma—how it’s repetitive, and how we recreate it, and how memory is fashioned by creation. Every time we remember, we create new neurons, which is why memory is so unreliable. I thought, “Well if the Greek root for ‘poet’ is ‘creator,’ then to remember is to create, and, therefore, to remember is to be a poet.” I thought it was so neat. Everyone’s a poet, as long as they remember.”

A guide to... astrological aspects

I love studying astrological aspects so I decided to make a guide on it! Aspects are measured angles between the planets (and ascendant + MC) that have influence on you. They can also be off by a few degrees, this is called an orb and the smaller orb an aspect has, the stronger it is. They can be positive, negative, or neutral. Neutral aspects can either be positive or negative depending on the planets involved. There are major aspects, minor aspects, and aspect patterns. I’ll go over the first two of those in this post.

Major aspects are aspects that have a bigger significance. Major aspects are…

Conjunction - This is two planets 0˚ away from one another. This is a neutral aspect. The planet’s involved energies  are brought together with this aspect so depending on the planets it could either be good or bad.

Sextile - This is two planets that are 60˚ away from one another. This aspect is generally positive. The energies of the planets involved inspire, encourage, and cooperate well with each other.

Square - This is two planets that are 90˚ away from one another. This is a negative aspect to have. The planets energies don’t cooperate and they cause mutually exclusive desires and needs.

Trine - These are two planets that are 120˚ away from one another. This is a positive aspect. The planets involved’s energies work together harmoniously, enriching one another.

Opposition - These are two planets which are 180˚ away from one another. This is generally a negative aspect but it can also be viewed as a neutral aspect, depending on the planets involved. There is tension between these planets energies but this can be motivating.

Minor aspects are aspects that have lesser significance. Minor aspects are…

Semisextile - These are two planets that are 30˚ away from one another. This is a neutral aspect so it can either be positive of negative depending on the planets involved. It can symbolize that the planets involved’s energies can cause a hard-to-discover potential. 

Semisquare - These are two planets that are 45˚ away from one another. This is a negative aspect. The energies of the planets involved cause unapparent tension.

Quintile - This is two planets that are 72˚ away from one another. It is a positive aspect. The energies of these planets work together to unleash talent and potential They can point to purposeful uses of one’s talent and this talent usually has to do with art.

Sesquisquare - These two planets are 135˚ away from one another. This is a negative aspect. These two planetary energies cause conflict and tension just like the square except this tension is easier to suppress… making it harder to learn from.

Biquintile - These two planets are 144˚ away from one another. This is a positive aspect. These planets energies are very good for artistic areas. Although people are generally only vaguely aware of the energy from this aspect.

Quincunx/Inconjunct - These two planets are 150˚ away from one another. This is a neutral aspect and arguably the most important of the minor aspects. It give potential that is difficult to release and adjust to.

Well, I hope this helped someone understand aspects better! Feel free to drop any questions you have into my ask box!! Also, please inform me if you would like me to make a post on aspect patterns.
