The aspects

An aspect is a precise angle between two points of the chart, measured on the zodiac circle: 0° (conjunction), 60° (sextile), 90° (square), 120° (trine), 180° (opposition). Two planets in aspect work together — smoothly or with friction depending on the angle. Nothing is "good" or "bad": a square provides an engine, a trine provides comfort.

The five aspects seen from today’s Sun, at 12°03′ Scorpio. Each sector covers the exact angle, plus or minus its orb: 6° for the conjunction and the opposition, 5° for the trine and the square, 3° for the sextile. Today, Mercury (conjunction, 0.3°) falls inside.
