#minor aspects

Use planets' zodiac signs Decans (1-3) as tone for your personality, for exemple: I'm a Virgo rising (23º 'aquarius degree'), since it is a late degree '3rd Decan' (20º-29º in Virgo), it is influenced by Venus, meaning Taurus, since Virgo is an earth sign

A Synastry Chart is the interactions between two people; a Composite Chart is the entity; Davison Chart is the final result of that entity. First interaction of the relationship = Synastry; Beginning of the relationship (potential) = Composite Chart; Foundation of the relationship (long-term) = Davison Chart

1st house ruler also tells you a lot about your appearance, not just the ascendant. Also don't forget about the degree it is in and the house it represents

Use asteroids to know more about the specifics, none are actually minor aspects

I strongly suggest to go to astrodienst (astro.com) as your ultimate guide for an accurate birth chart and relationship charts analysis. **Watch for aspects with symbols next to your degrees such as (-), (s) and (a). (-) and (s) symbols are for separate aspects, meaning they're no longer felt. Take them as non-existent, only apply to the sign (a) which literally means applying. This one is active, use it

Persona Charts can be much more accurate then your current Natal Chart, as it is is the persona you decided to adopt through the years. For instance, you might be a natal Aries moon, but in your Moon Persona Chart, you are a Cancer moon and find yourself resonating a lot more with the Cancer moon

Degree facts: Apart from the obvious (Leo 28-29 degree & Cancer 28-29 as household name for fame), if you have Leo 23-24 degree or Virgo 23-24 degree in your Natal Chart, they are considered a fame degree, as they are switched to those very same degrees in the Sidereal Chart. In beauty degrees, look for 9, 18 and 27 degrees & 5, 14 and 23 degrees (note from a professional astrologer). If you have 3º in your Natal Chart, it is considered the degree of comedy, thus making you naturally funny

I strongly suggest as a general rule of thumb to never use an orb higher than 2 degree for relevance, unless the aspects are between two prominent planets or in Scorpio signs (don't go above 3 degree), 0 degree is ideal

Aspects facts: Conjunctions are key, but can be negative. Trines and Sextiles are harmonious but not as strong or as significant as Conjunctions or hard aspects like (Squares and Opposites). Also Quintiles and Bi-Quintiles aren't minor aspects, they are creatively harmonius, sometimes felt just as much as Trines and Sextiles. Semi-sextiles are represented through a push and pull kind of dynamic, not entirely negative but not entirely positive either. Let's bring Parallel and Contra-Parallel (Declination aspects = not immediately felt) in the equation (Parallels are like dynamic Conjunctions and Contra-Parallels are dynamic Opposites, according to astrologer John Wilner)

You are more than just your zodiac sign and house, your degree can tell you as much about your additional tone of personality, for exemple: Aries sun in (20'58º) in the 8th house (20'58º being a cusp, is a Scorpio-Sagittarius degree cusp), meaning the Aries is very Scorpio coded with a bonus 8th house (Scorpio house) and Sagittarius underling also in tone

Apologies for my mistakes, English is not my first language.

Could you explain Neptune quincunx Moon-Mercury conjunction?

Hello, little wanderer! 💜 Thank you so much for this question!

Neptune quincunx Moon–Mercury may show that you experience reality on a very subtle emotional and mental level. Your thoughts and feelings may be closely connected, so when something affects you emotionally, it may immediately shape your perception of it. Yet, Neptune’s influence may blur clarity, making it hard for you to fully trust or explain your own perceptions.

You might notice that you pick up on moods, unspoken dynamics, or emotional undercurrents around you, sometimes without realizing how or why. This can leave you feeling confused, misunderstood, or unsure whether what you’re sensing is real or imagined.

You may replay conversations, doubt your words, or feel that silence is safer than trying to explain yourself.

IMPORTANT: This aspect doesn’t mean your intuition is wrong; rather, it may suggest that learning to ground yourself, establish emotional boundaries, and cultivate self-trust could help you navigate your sensitivity without becoming overwhelmed by it.

Hope this was clear 💜 If not, feel free to ask and I’ll gladly delve deeper or clarify any part.

thank you so much

Hi! Yes, I’ve studied them a bit. They are both considered “minor aspects” but that doesn’t take away from their importance in your birth chart. They can still provide valuable insights. 🤍

“Quintiles” which occur when planets are 72 degrees apart. But they are often linked to creativity, self-expression, and unique skills. They reflect how you express these aspects of your personality to the world. 🌎

“Biquintiles” which occur when planets are between 144 degrees. They are also associated with talents and unique skills, but they more so focus on more complex or subtle gifts you have. Biquintiles though, can show you situations where you will express your unique abilities in transformative or even unconventional ways.

For instance, with your Taurus Sun in the 11th House quintile to Neptune in the 8th House, this aspect can show a strong connection between your personal identity (Sun) and your dreams (Neptune). This could manifest as creative or artistic pursuits, especially in social contexts (11th House). Your values (Taurus) could also be shown by a desire for deeper connections and transformative experiences (8th House).

With the Sun Quintile your Cancer Rising, this aspect can show a balanced relationship between your ego (Sun) and your outward personality (Ascendant). Your outward presentation can come across as nurturing, and there is a genuine authenticity in how you express yourself, making you appear safe and relatable to others.

With the Ascendant Biquintile Neptune, and your Rising sign relates to your ideals and fantasies. I would imagine you likely embody an ethereal quality in your presence, by making you appear imaginative or otherworldly to others. This aspect can show your ability to connect with people on a deeper level, which often draws them into your dreamy perspectives.

Lastly, the Biquintile between your 2nd House Leo Moon and 6th House Sagittarius Pluto indicates an emotional depth connected to your values and resources. Pluto's influence can show transformational experiences in your daily routines and work. This could manifest as tapping into deeper emotional insights that help reform your approach to service, aligning your emotional needs with your overall daily activities.

I hope this answers your question! I needed more research on these, so I'm glad you asked.

the semi-square (∠) aspect in astrology is where two planets are 45° degrees apart 

a semi-square is the result of dividing a circle by 8. essentially, it is half of a the square aspect. because of this, squares indicate blocked energy or friction between two astrological bodies. 

the number 8 in numerology represents balance in the spiritual and materialistic world which is a key theme of this aspect. the semi-square aspect's tension aligns with the transformative nature of the number 8 in numerology, both pushing for growth, balance, and a harmonious integration of seemingly opposing forces.

samely with the semi-square aspect, this energy appears to be even more deeply blocked and manifests as external events. 

can bring irritation or agitation kinda like having a mosquito bite that’s itchy, but if you itch it, it can become even more painful

it can also be like when two people are sitting really similar to each other, but they can stand each other despite their similarities. they're not quite on the same page. they're not exactly fighting, but there's a bit of tension in the air. sorta like a friendly disagreement. 

can indicate blocked internal energy or sometimes areas of stubbornness or inflexibility to changes especially 

a series of chaotic circumstances and events can occur, sometimes repeatedly, because of this aspect when the demand of change is ignored instead of looking at this a way to look at something in a new way 

with these aspects, the individual often develops great persistence, endurance, growth, and productive results in their efforts to control and reconcile these difficult combinations of energy.

it can cause motivation for resolution to get things done and find a positive solution to whatever problem can be caused by this aspect in innovative ways, but one must put in the time and dedication. 

patience & maturity are key with this aspect to understand these energies to find a solution that does not causes any more problems

natal sun semi-square subtle tension between your ego, self-image, and how you identify and your emotions, inner self, and instincts. this aspect might lead to inner conflicts when expressing yourself outwardly while dealing with your internal feelings. difficulty harmonizing your self-image with emotional needs could result in moments of feeling misunderstood or struggling to express your genuine emotions. this aspect can motivate you to understand and integrate your feelings with your sense of self, leading to personal growth. balancing your logical expression with emotional intuition becomes important, though occasional mood swings and challenges in articulating emotions might arise. balance your projected self-image with your inner vulnerabilities, urging you to practice effective communication and healthy emotional outlets. this aspect presents both challenges and opportunities, ultimately encouraging you to bridge the gap between your identity and emotions for greater self-awareness and decision-making.

composite  mercury semi-square venus shows potential tension when expressing thoughts and ideas might clash with the desire for peace and agreement, causing disagreements that stem from miscommunication or differing values. There could be moments of confusion or difficulty finding the right words to convey affection, potentially leading to misunderstandings. However, this aspect also brings opportunities for growth. The challenges it poses can encourage the partners to work on their communication skills and understanding of each other's viewpoints. Over time, the effort to bridge the gap between thought processes and expressions of love can lead to a stronger emotional bond and greater mutual respect. With patience and a willingness to address differences constructively, this aspect can be a driving force for developing a more profound and authentic connection.

People do not talk enough about how "Quintiles" - "Bi-quintiles" and "Quincunx/Inconjcunt" are still very powerful and very important too. I don't really know why are they considered minor aspects when they have such a powerful energy 😭.

Quintiles 72°/Bi-quintiles 144° are harmonious aspects kinda like sextiles but their energy comes more easier with a flow of mistery

Example: Ascendant Quintile Mars can give someone a very courageous*flow* and can make someone very attractive/hot

Quincunx/Inconjcunt 150° are very powerful aspects tho they are considered "minor aspects" they can be very powerful, because it shows something you can struggle/didn't reach the full potential yet .

Example "Venus quincunx Ascendant people can struggle with their appearance a lot because they are scared people are gonna judge them". They need to reach the full potential where they don't care about people's opinion anymore and they wear whatever they like.

Bi-quintiles + Quintiles

i wanted to ask you opinion on minor aspects in the natal chart and know what each of them means. I also wanted to know their importance.

Thnak you so muchh!🤎🤎

Hello my love. 🤎

I don't usually consider the minor aspects much [with the exception of the Quincunx, Quintile or Biquintile] so I don't consider myself the best person to give you information about it. I would not like to leave you with this answer, so I will attach my favorite post on the topic, it is quite complete, informative and has interesting examples [and was written by @sun-pluto whom I really appreciate].
