When analyzing aspects, it's very important to consider the entirety of the planetary relationship so you understand why an aspect has a certain meaning, why it carries a certain weight or calling to it. So any ass, any planets are going to go through the conjunction, square, opposition, square, conjunction cycle. So all planets in aspect to each other are very important to understand when it comes to the entirety of the planetary relationship. So in this video, we're going to talk about what the conjunction and all of the other aspects lead to up to the opposition, and then in the next video, we will talk about what the opposition leads to coming back to the conjunction.
At the first stage of the planetary relationship, we start with the conjunction, where the planets are right next to each other. They are touching or they are had just been touching and are just about to separate. So they are functioning together. There is an intensification of each other as a result of the strengthening relationship between the two of them. So it is the start of something new. It's the start of an entire new cycle where we have new potentials and we have the two planets functioning in a way where they are supporting each other toward that potential. So it is a subjective understanding, a personal understanding that the conjunction signifies. It is [Music] when a new seed has been planted, and what will emerge will just begin at the next stage of relationship between planets.
The semi-sextile is a 30-degree angle, and it brings the emergence of awareness, the emergence of understanding, the solution to a problem, and understanding ourselves through the problem. So it is bringing relatedness up for issue. So the emergence of division is coming through the relatedness between things. How are things related? How are they not? And so this is the phase of the planetary relationship where we struggle with the seeming issue of how something doesn't have a cohesive relationship to something else. It's not in tune. It's not harmonious. So we're struggling with how to bring harmony to what appears to be two different, two different things. There's a division. How to bring in a harmony to the division that is just now emerging.
And then we come to the novile, and the novile is the 40-degree aspect, and it is an aspect that is about unmanifested growth. It is where we feel inspired. We want to go on a mission to sort out the problem. So the problem is the inspiration for the mission. It's the, the inspiration for the growth that can take place at the level of the novile. We feel called to something. We feel that there's something greater than us. So we associate problem with purpose at the state of the novile.
Next, the semi-square at 45 degrees brings the coordination of inner and outer activities in an effort to release our personal expression. So we are going to deal with others heavily at the semi-square. This is the first awareness of meaning, the meaning that problem can bring, that the problem can result in. This is the first awareness of how our personal factors are showing up in others. So we're learning to coordinate the personal with the impersonal, the inner with the outer, and the problem drives us to integrate with others through mutuality. We're developing conflict resolution mechanisms at the semi-square, and we're learning to solve problems through cooperating. We must actively deal with others at the semi-square, and we achieve a synchronicity with them rather than pulling apart from them. We're learning to get our archetypes to work together with others to achieve our personal goals.
The septile is an aspect of 51.25 degrees, and it leads us to the fulfillment of our personal destiny through the solving of problem. It is something that urges us to see beyond the separateness of things, and even if we don't have a clear, clear sight of that, to proceed knowing that there is a unity to everything, to proceed as if we have gained that unity already. So we're having a faith that what we can't see, but what we are directed to by our higher self, that that is going to lead us in the right direction. So it's a direction we cannot see. It's known as a coded direction. When something is coded, it is hidden. So it's a hidden direction, but yet there's something within us that urges us to set out on it. We can see either a narrow destiny and a type of neuroticism come from the septile, or we can see how somebody deals with the unpredictable elements in life in an extremely healthy, flexible way. So we learn a truth, we learn a fundamental truth at the level of the septile that allows us to negotiate through a problem, even though we may not have all the pieces.
The sextile at 60 degrees is considered an easy aspect in that it doesn't ask much of us. We don't have to push against much. There is the application of our understanding to the outside world. So what have we learned about ourselves, and how can we apply that to what we know about others? It is a, a productive aspect in that what we've learned so far, we're going to do something with it at the sextile. We, we are going to use it to take some action, to build something, to do something good for something that's extremely constructive in our life. So what we've learned turns into something good at the sextile. It's, it's good fuel for doing something, for showing an exteriorization of what we have learned and come to know about ourselves thus far. So we are applying what we understand to the world. We're applying it to what we're doing and using it in such a way where it makes success easy at the sextile.
Now we come to the quintile, the 72-degree aspect, where we deal with the problem creatively. We understand separateness through taking some type of creative action in our life. So it's the externalization of who we really are. The subjective self externalizes at the level of the quintile. It shows up. So we are learning to solve the issue of problem or separateness or duality through a creative and intensely unique creative solution, and it's as creativity that leads us to further individuate ourselves.
At the square, we have the 90-degree aspect, which is creative tension. The tension between ourselves and others, the inner and the outer, the subjective and the objective is creating. It is helping us to go about activities in our life. They're going to be ego-building. They're going to help us to further individuate and to learn about ourselves, and to learn about ourselves in relation to another person. So there is a crisis that is involved with the square. It makes us do something. We have to take action. We have to change something. We have to address something. And if we want some, the thing that the two or the experiencer or the condition that the, the two planets that are in square aspect promise, we have to push through that. We don't think we can do it. We have to push through negativity. We have to push through negative self-talk. So it helps us to know ourselves because we are now using everything that we have learned about problem, everything that I've learned about me, everything I've learned about you, you were just throwing everything at the wall and trying to get anything to stick when it comes to having this help us to, to confront and take action on what is holding us back. So we have to, to, to really push against what feels afflicting. We're pushing against outside circumstances with the square, pushing against what seems to not be working with us, and it is stressful, but it is giving concrete forms to things. We are doing things. It's making us produce things. It's making us deal with the three-dimensional world. So it builds our identity. It builds our sense of self. It builds our sense of separateness through working through that. Why are we having a problem? Where is this problem coming from? When it comes from separateness, and how can I just power through it? So it's, it's an aspect that demands that we deal with the problem.
The trine can bring an understanding to problem, difference, or differences. It is a harmonious aspect that blends energies very well. It blends you and me. It depends what's different. It blends what's new. So we get through the problem through understanding, and it creates a peace. It is a consciousness-expanding aspect, even though it's an easy aspect, because it, it expands our understanding. Our understanding is actually getting bigger through really taking into account and learning from the previous hard steps. So it's like we are doing something with the difficulty that we have found ourselves in, and there is a just sort of an easy way that we are approaching the problem, an easy way, a non-friction-filled, confrontational way. So we don't feel afflicted, even though we may still be dealing with problem, because we are understanding the problem. We're understanding. We're seeing what the problem rests on, what does it stand on? When we understand something, we're seeing what is beneath it, what are the causes of it. So we have a knowledge at the level of the trine that can lead to establishing peace within ourselves and with others.
At the sesquiquadrate, we are learning how to express ourselves through taking some kind of action, but we are learning to coordinate that action with others. This is a stressful aspect in that the action that we take and the way that we approach a problem, the way that we approach separateness or division, is generally not in tune with how others are actually functioning. So we're learning to adjust our plan, adjust our way of doing, our way of achieving creative association with another people, of achieving that, that unity. The way that we're approaching that is very willful. So our will is very much the designer of the type of action that we take, and really not the proper evaluation of the situation itself. So what the sesquiquadrate, we are really learning to adjust the ways in which we respond to problem and respond to two [Music] issues within our lives. We're learning to adjust the way that we work with that to respond to what the actual reality is. So there is a, a conscious need to do something when we have a sesquiquadrate. We feel that we must, we must take some kind of action. We must do something. But we need to be careful that when we do do that something, that it is in tune with what the actual circumstances are, and with who the relationships that we have with those really are, or else what we can end up with is a failure, and that will cause us again, once more, to reevaluate, and then we will approach this, this stage again. But it is really the peak of our self-willed activities.
The inconjunction is the 150-degree angle that requires adjustment of ourselves with others and it brings insight into what we are versus what others are, what others are versus what we are. So it can bring us great intelligence regarding how we are interacting with others because it is bringing focus to an area of life, this or an issue, a problem that is chronic. So that chronic issue is something that requires a lot of attention, and this is where the, the focalized side to this, to this shows up. So we are maturing when we have inconjunction. We are maturing from wanting our side or our share in to being able to compromise, into understanding that we have to approach problems like an adult. We have to be willing to give something up if we are going to actually have a real compromise. The nature of real compromise is that we're both going to come out of it, both feeling like we both lost something, we both gave something up, not like we both gained something. So we're maturing through being able to compromise, being able to see when compromise is necessary, and to also be able to live with paradox, to understand the nature of paradox, how one thing can be one way, but it can, it can be another. Because when we're dealing with inconjunctions, we may want one thing, but we learn to do another. So it prepares us to understand really the true nature of everything, which is that it is all each other. It is all connected. So in teaching us this lesson of connectivity through compromise, it is really preparing us to see and take in the full understanding of duality that we see at the opposition.
The opposition brings awareness of where the conflict comes from and how we can end it. It is a tense aspect. It's showing the separation of one and splitting into two. So it is the aspect of duality itself. So it's opposing where we began the cycle at the conjunction, where we had unity, unification, integrity. Now we have the need to establish an integrity through understanding, through objectification of awareness. So the confrontations that we see with the oppositions come from externalizing problem, seeing problem outside of ourselves. The healing can come from understanding that problem comes from inside and is reflected to us from the outside. So it teaches us how to act instead of react, and it repolarizes the cycle. So where we have been searching for answers, or we have been searching for solutions to problem, this is the stage in the cycle where we find solution, we find illumination regarding problem, what is separate, how to bring unity to that. And it is after the opposition occurs that we start to then assimilate that answer, the solution, into our lives so we can solve the problem completely, wrap the problem up at the conjunction.
