What you need to know about the planetary aspect

Now, for the fun part, you can start putting all the pieces together to figure out what a particular conjunction means for you (or for compatibility if you’re comparing charts, or for the day, if you’re looking at a daily chart).

As Quinn explains to mbg, you may wonder if the planet themes in question “work” together. For example, Venus and Mercury conjunct in Taurus, in the seventh house, would indicate an ease in terms of partnership and the expression of emotions. Uranus and Saturn, on the other hand, have very different energies.

Another example, Quinn notes, is that Neptune and Jupiter are both in Pisces right now. “That’s a good thing, because Neptune is ruled by spirituality and dreams, just like Pisces – so it’s basically in its rest house – and then Jupiter is the planet of luck, so it’s going to amplify our dreams and our spiritual space.”

But beware; Conjunctions are not always easy. Quinn explains that someone who has their sun, moon, and rising conjunction in Gemini, for example, might have a really hard time making decisions. It really comes down to the specific “cocktail” of a particular conjunction and the themes associated with the respective sign, planet and house.

As you learn more about astrology and your own chart, understanding all of the aspects present will become easier, although if this is all a bit too much to take in on your own, you may find It may be helpful to get a reading from an astrologer or check out one of the many astrology apps available today for more information about your unique aspects.
