Aspects Involving More Than Two Planets

Published by tata under Aspects Edit This

There are three important aspects that involve more than two planets and/or energies. I say energies because this aspects are also applicable to the Ascendant, Mid-Heaven and so forth, as well.

Grand Trine - formed by three planets in a triangle of the same elements. They create a harmonious energy within the houses where they are located and for the matters of which the planets/energies represent. However, the Grand Trine can be a detriment because the native may become to reliant upon the natural harmony of the aspect and therefore dismiss harnessing the positive potential. You can see the triangle in my natal chart .

Grand Square - formed by four squares and two oppositions, a Grand Square is having a planet within orb in each of the quadruplicities. There is great strength in this arrangement because obstacles must be overcome. When in the cardinal signs, action must occur to relieve the tension. When in the fixed signs, there must be an emotional outlet. When in mutable signs, the native may be plagued with indecision and become static - so look to the fixed signs within the natal chart to facilitate correcting the indecision.

T-Square - two planets that oppose one another both square a third planet. This is like the Grand Square but with a missing corner. I think of it as a square table with only three legs. Because this lack of balance, it is the most difficult of the aspects and will likely be most difficult when a heavy planet transits the area of the missing leg. The quality that needs focusing is the one that is missing.
