Aspects in Astrology: The Five Major Configurations

An introduction to the five major aspects in astrology, where we explain what they mean in a birth chart, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Claire Moon.

The five major aspects, also sometimes known as the Ptolemaic aspects, are the conjunction, opposition, trine, square, and sextile.

Aspects are geometrical configurations which denote different types of relationships between planets, and they are the primary means through which planets interact with each other in a chart.

During the course of the episode we give an introduction to the topic of aspects and then get into what each of the them mean symbolically.
