Conjunction Aspect (~0°): Fuse, Amplify, Focus
All Aspects • Sextile • Square • Trine • OppositionA conjunction blends two planets into one loud channel. It can be genius or tangled—depends on the planets, sign, and house. Start with planet nature, then add the context.
What a Conjunction Signifies
Core idea
Strengths
- Clarity of drive/focus
- Talent compounding (e.g., Mercury–Uranus insights)
- Signature style others notice
Watch-outs
- Overdrive or tunnel vision
- One planet overpowering the other (malefic/benefic mix)
- Out-of-sign blends can feel mixed—check elements & modes
Orbs, Exactness, and Special Cases
Typical orbs
- Sun/Moon: up to ~8–10°
- Other planets: ~5–7°
- Outer planets: ~3–5° is safer
- Tighter = louder. Exact = headline.
Applying vs. separating
- Applying: building, urgent tone
- Separating: integrating, less raw

Conjunction in Synastry (You + Them)
Conjunctions are loud in relationships. Same page… or same blind spot. Weigh benefics/malefics and house overlays.
Conjunction as a Transit (Sky → You)
Inner planets
- Short, sharp headlines; repeat often
- Good for launches when benefic hits angles
Outer planets
- Slow + thorough (months/years)
- Identity pivots if to ASC/MC/IC/DSC
- Track applying → exact → separating dates
Make it practical
- Name the house → set one habit there
- Log events; watch for repeats via retrogrades
FAQ
Do out-of-sign conjunctions count?
Yes. If degrees are close enough, it’s a conjunction. The different signs add mixed elements/modes—interpret both.
Is “Sun conjunct Sun” a thing?
In natal charts, no (you have one Sun). In synastry, yes—your Sun can conjoin theirs; it’s strong recognition.
