spects are angles between two planets or between a planet and any
points on your horoscope wheel. When planets form certain angles with each other, they
interact, they work together.

The 120 degree aspect, called a Trine, and the 60 degree aspect,
called the Sextile, are said to be harmonious, smooth, bringers of benefits, to be
benefic.
The 90 degree aspect, called the Square,
and the 180 degree aspect, called the Opposition, are claimed to have stressful effects
and be malefic.
The zero degree aspect, called the
Conjunction, varies in its effect with the nature of the planets involved.
Toscanini had six square aspects in his
horoscope. It didn’t seem to hurt him, did it? Those stressful aspects, especially
the square, can generate power, and the frustration that they can cause also brings a
desire to change things.
The "good" aspects can make
things easier, but they also bring the desire to take the easy way out. I read an article
once written by an astrologer who claimed that she found two horoscopes that had mostly
trines and no squares. They were the charts of convicts. In school, they found it easier
to cheat than to study. Afterwards, they found it easier to steal than to work. Once
again, it’s what you do with what you’ve got. The problem with the stressful
aspects is that we tend to accept one of the planets and reject the other. That
never works out, as we shall see in the lists below.
In addition to the 5 major aspects, there
are 10 Planetary
