1. Incoming and outgoing phases
The composition of the phase is a faster moving planet and another slower moving planet.
When the fast star gradually approaches the slow planet and forms an angle, the two planets are about to approach. It is called applying , capital letter A is used to represent , entering the phase means that the event is about to happen;
When the phase tolerance of these two planets is close to 0, it is called exact phase (Exact), and the exact phase The power reaches its highest level;
When the fast planet gradually leaves the angle of the slow planet, that is, the process of the two planets gradually separating, it is called Separating , and is represented by the capital letter S. . Out of phase means that the event has finished.
is shown in the figure below:
In astrology, compared to the influence of "out of phase", the energy of "in phase" of is stronger than .
2. Phase tolerance
Phase tolerance is the range of degrees covered when planets form intersection angles.
Different scholars have different discussions on phase tolerance.
Modern astrology uses phases to distinguish orbs:
Main phase | |
minor phase
30 degrees: 3 degrees of sun and moon, 2 degrees of other stars;
150 degrees: 3 degrees of sun and moon degrees, other stars 2 degrees;
45 degrees: sun and moon 3 degrees, other stars 2 degrees;
135 degrees: sun and moon 3 degrees, other stars 2 degrees
Classical astrology uses the radius of starlight as the allowable degree:
Find the distance between two stars The starlight is half the sum of the starlight of the two stars as the tolerance.
Sun starlight——15° Moon starlight——12° Mercury starlight——7° Venus starlight——7° Mars starlight——8° Jupiter starlight——9° Saturn starlight——9° |
For example: Mercury and the moon are in conjunction, and the orb is (7°+12°)÷2 = 9.5°.
