Retrograde (vs. Direct or Prograde Motion) P
Direct motion is the motion of a planetary body in a direction similar to that of other bodies
within its system, and is sometimes called prograde motion. Retrograde motion is motion in the
opposite direction as seen in the skies from Earth. The retrograde motion of the planets was
traditionally thought to be unlucky or inauspicious, as it went against the 'natural' order of
movement, and a planet which was retrograde at the time of birth was considered a weak spot in
the natal chart. Most modern astrologers still consider the retrograde movement of a planet to be
indicative of stress or difficulty. For example, the retrograde movement of Mercury is commonly
thought to signify difficulties in communication, such as post or emails going astray, verbal
misunderstandings, and travel delays and frustrations. However, many astrologers do not
consider retrograde movement to be of any particular significance, especially given that the outer
planets are retrograde for over 40% of the time.
Conjunction
A conjunction (abrv. Con) is an angle of approximately 0-10. This is said to be the most
powerful aspect, intensifying the effects of the involved planets mutually and being a major
point in the chart. The planets will act together to outside stimulus and act on each other. The
essential feature of a conjunction is that each planet brings out a characteristic in accord with its
own nature out of the other planet. This may probably be difficult to achieve without the aid of
the other planet. This process, however, will also cause each planet involved to lose some of its
true characteristics. For example, a person with a conjunction of Mercury and the Moon will find
it easy to talk (Mercury) about his or her feelings (Moon) and rationalize them. However, due to
their intellectual approach to emotions, it follows that their feelings also lose some depth,
therefore, these people cannot handle heavy emotional demands. On the other hand, the
involvement of the emotions (Moon) in the rational thinking process (Mercury) makes it easy for
the person to think and communicate with sensitivity and consideration. This ability can,
however, take away some of the objectivity (Mercury) from the thinking process due to biases
from loyalties, emotional attachments, and so on (Moon).
Whether the union is to be regarded as "positive" or "negative" depends upon what planets are
involved: Venus, Jupiter and the Sun, in any possible combination, is considered the most
favorable scenario (and all three actually met on November 9-10, 1970, for example), while the
most unfavorable configurations involve Mars, Saturn, and/or the Moon (with all three
conjoining on March 10 in that same year). If the planets are under stress from other
configurations, then the conjunction will be said to intensify the stress. When a planet is in very
close conjunction to the Sun it is referred to as cazimi; when a planet is moderately close to Sun,
it is said to be combust. The Sun and Moon are in conjunction monthly during the New Moon.
Sextile
A sextile (abrv. SXt or Sex) is an angle of 60 (1/6 of the 360 ecliptic, or 1/2 of a trine [120]).
The sextile has been traditionally said to be similar in influence to the trine, but of less
significance. It indicates ease of communication between the two elements involved, with
compatibility and harmony between them, but only provides opportunity, requiring effort to gain
its benefits.
Trine
A trine (abrv. Tri) is an angle of 120 (1/3 of the 360 ecliptic). The trine indicates harmony, and
ease of expression, with the two elements reinforcing each other. The trine is a source of artistic
and creative talent, which is innate. The trine has been traditionally assumed to be extremely
beneficial, providing ease even if undeserved, but it can be a 'line of least resistance' to a person
of weak character. Too many trines are said to make a person weak and unable to cope with
adversity. Complacency can also prove to be a problem. Due to the harmony bestowed by the
trine, the person may not feel the need to develop the gifts given by this aspect, thus it follows
that the person has no need to satisfy a need and supply what is lacking because it is already
satisfied from the time of his or her birth.
Square
A square (abrv. SQr or Squ) is an angle of 90 (1/4 of the 360 ecliptic, or 1/2 of an opposition
[180]). As with the trine and the sextile, in the square, it is usually the outer or superior planet
that has an effect on the inner or inferior one. Basically, the square's energy is similar to that of a
trine but it is intensified to such an extent that the energy is said to be stressful. For example,
Mercury trine Saturn indicates practicality and prudence with thoughts and communication,
concentrating on practical matters. It is also indicative of caution in planning and other mental
tasks. However, the square between those planets indicates mental restraint, excessive censoring
of communication and overemphasis on trivial details. It also indicates pessimism and a stilted
and fearful approach to life. The square is said to indicate strain, tension, frustration, inhibitions,
disruption and inner conflict. However, it can become a source of energy and activation to a
person determined to overcome limitations, presenting challenges to achievement and an
opportunity to develop strength of character. See the information on the semisquare and
sesquiquadrate below. The square is also sometimes known as the quartile.
Opposition
An opposition (abrv. Opp) is an angle of 180 (1/2 of the 360 ecliptic). Oppositions are said to
be the second most powerful aspect. The opposition is indicative of tension, conflict and
confrontation, due to the polarity between the two elements involved. Stress arises when one is
used over the other, causing an imbalance; but the opposition can work well if the two parts of
the aspect are made to complement each other in a synthesis. They are looked on less negatively
than in the past, though the opposition is still considered a difficult aspect. The Sun and Moon
are in opposition monthly during the Full Moon.
Void of Course V/C
The time a planet spends, after leaving its last significant aspect to another planet, prior to
entering a new astrological sign. Moon V/C is said to be an inauspicious time to initiate any new
projects. It is a time best spent in meditation and devotion.
MOON PHASES
New Moon
1st phase of a given Lunation or Moon Cycle. A whole lunation, or Synodic month, ranges from
29.27 to 29.83. When the Sun and Moon are aligned on the same side of the Earth, the Moon is
"new", and the side of the Moon visible from Earth is not illuminated by the Sun
Crescent Moon 9
As the Moon waxes (the amount of illuminated surface as seen from Earth is increasing), the
lunar phases progress from new moon, crescent moon.
1st Quarter Moon

Gibbous Moon

Full Moon
Fully visible. The Sun and the Moon are opposite each other in the sky relative to Earth, so the
full visible surface of the Moon is illuminated by the Sun.

The Tree of Life
Etz haChayim ( ) in Hebrew, is a mystical symbol within the Kabbalah, or esoteric
Judaism, used to understand the nature of God and the manner in which He created the world ex
nihilo (out of nothing). The Kabbalists developed this concept into a full model of reality, using
the tree to depict a "map" of Creation; later western magickal traditions have all at some point
made reference to the concepts expressed by the tree to understand magickal phenomena and
praxis
