We'll get into what each means later on, but essentially, an aspect represents a relationship between two planets' positions relative to each other (i.e., Sun conjunct Venus). In deciding whether or not an event will happen in the future, the astrologer would consider only the applying or exact aspect as affirmative. The five major aspects in astrology are conjunctions, sextiles, squares, trines, and oppositions. The aspects that are covered in both Modern day/Western astrology and Vedic astrology are the following aspects: conjunction, sextile, square, trine, quincunx. In horary astrology a separating aspect indicates that the time for an event of interest or opportunity to occur has already passed. The effects of a transit can even be observed several degrees before an exact aspect is formed, whereas after the transit planet has passed this point the effects may wane rather quickly. Consequently aspects formed by Transits, Directions, and Progressions are granted a larger Orb when in the applicative phase. In most types of chart interpretation the applying aspect is considered to be stronger than the separating aspect because the energies are converging and the climax is still approaching. In this case the planets are moving away from aspect. The opposite is a Separating Aspect, an aspect which has passed the point at which it was exact. It means that the faster of two planets (or other Sensitive Point such as the Ascendant or Medium Coeli) is approaching an exact aspect to the slower moving one. An aspect which is still in the process of forming, also referred to as an application.
