Aspects

Aspect

The Conjunction

The conjunction takes its character from the two bodies joined: it is fortunate when they are agreeable and unfortunate when they are hostile. It is therefore neither benefic nor malefic in itself — the one aspect whose nature is decided entirely by its planets.

Sun conjunction Moon

Favourable

The Sun and the Moon bring together vitality, honour and the will to shine and change, feeling and the common life. Joining a benefic to a body of common influence, the tradition counts this a generally favourable combination, though their contrary elemental natures soften the pairing. In conjunction the two bodies act as one, concentrating their combined nature without relief between them.
