The total number of such aspect patterns with 3-6 planets is thus 110. If we consider only the aspects shown in the table above, other than conjunction, then there are 12 possible 3-planet aspect patterns, 28 possible 4-planet aspect patterns, 35 possible 5-planet aspect patterns, and 35 possible 6-planet aspect patterns. The image at right shows the simultaneous occurrence of a grand trine (Earth-Jupiter-Pluto) and a T-square (Jupiter-Saturn-Pluto) which occurs on November 7, 2015. In heliocentric astrology the aspects and aspect patterns are the same, except that the set of planets is the astronomical set (the nine planets from Mercury to Pluto) and does not include the Sun or the Moon. For a more detailed explanation of aspects and aspect patterns in the context of geocentric astrology see Planetary Aspect Patterns. When three or more planets are such that each pair of planets forms an aspect then we have what is called an aspect pattern. The main ones are those which are a multiple of 30: Eliminating duplicates, there are thus 16 possible aspects. Two planets are said to form an aspect when the difference in their ecliptic longitudes is close to m.(360/n) degrees, where 360/n is an integer >= 30 and 0 <= m <= n/2. And Neptune is at 338★6', which is 8★6' in Pisces. Venus is at 188☁4', which is 8☁4' in Libra. The Earth is at 102☁", which is 12☁' in Cancer. Uranus is at 19☁0', which is 19☁0' in Aries (as shown in the tabular display below the graphical display). The 3 o'clock position corresponds to zero degrees, and degrees increase anti-clockwise, so 90 degrees is at the 12 o'clock position.įor example, see the chart here. The ecliptic is divided into 360 degrees. The chart displayed by this program represents the planets on the ecliptic, as viewed from a position in space directly above the Sun (not the Earth). In the rest of this user manual, the term ecliptic longitude (or longitude for short) of a planet will mean its heliocentric ecliptic longitude. Thus there are two senses of ecliptic longitude depending on whether the point of view is the Earth ( geocentric ecliptic longitude) or the Sun ( heliocentric ecliptic longitude).
If we now take as our point of view, not the Earth, but rather the Sun, then again, at any given time the position (more exactly, the direction) of a planet is specified by a longitude, called the ecliptic longitude.
From the point of view of the Earth, at any given time the position (more exactly, the direction) of a planet is specified by a longitude, called the celestial longitude (a.k.a. Thus it is approximately true that all the planets move in the ecliptic plane, with slight movements above and below it (somewhat larger vertical movements in the case of Pluto).
This circle is called the ecliptic, and it determines the ecliptic plane.Įach planet orbits the Sun in its own orbital plane, and (with the exception of Pluto) these orbital planes almost coincide with the ecliptic plane. What the Chart Shows From the point of view of an ideal observer at the center of the Earth, the Sun traces out a complete circle against the background of the fixed stars during the course of a seasonal year, and it traces out the same circle every year.
