The Magi Society's extensive research has revealed a number
of astrological principles that differ from those of
other astrological systems. One crucial piece of
learning Magi Astrology is the understanding of Magi
Aspects and Magi Orbs- the strict use of Magi Aspects
and Magi Orbs is one of the keys to Magi Astrology's
amazing accuracy.
Perhaps the most important finding thus far from Magi
Society research is the discovery of the unparalleled
significance of multi-planet configurations we call
Planetary Geometry. Planetary Geometry
has been proven to be the single most important and powerful factor in any
chart. Planetary Geometry
is MAGIc!

Aspects |
The primary aspects
used in the Geocentric Longitudes are fairly consistent with those used
in traditional astrology. In addition, Magi Astrology uses 3 other dimensions
of calculation- the Geocentric Declinations, the Heliocentric Longitudes,
and the Heliocentric Latitudes- all of which are considered of
equal importance to the Geocentric Longitudes. Magi
Society research clearly demonstrates that
If
you're only using aspects from one dimension of astrology,
you're missing 3/4 of the data needed to make accurate analyses and
forecasts! See the lesson:
4 Dimensions of Magi Astrology
. The
Heliocentric
Longitudes use the same primary aspects as the Geocentric Longitudes. In
the Geocentric Declinations, the aspects used are the Parallel and
Contra-parallel. These same two aspects, called the Parallel and
Contra-latitude, are used in the Heliocentric Latitudes.
Understanding the
aspects to look for, and their significant orbs, are the building blocks
of understanding a key concept of Magi Astrology: Planetary
Geometry. |

If you have studied
traditional astrology, you will notice that the Magi orbs are quite
a bit tighter that you are accustomed to. Magi Orbs, like all Magi
principles, have been proven by our extensive research to be by far
the most effective.
There is one exception to the orbs listed above. In a planetary
geometry configuration
of 3 or more planets, ONE planet (and only
one planet) may have an orb of 4°.
Further,
Magi Astrology divides Aspects into several categories:
| |
Enhancements
Favorable aspect angles in a natal chart. The Conjunction,
Trine, and Parallel are enhancements. The Quincunx,
Contra-parallel, and Contra-latitude are also enhancements if the
aspect does not include a Saturnian planet.
About
Saturnian Planets
Pure Enhancements
The Conjunction,
Trine, and Parallel
Linkages
Favorable aspect angles in a combined chart. The Conjunction,
Trine, and Parallel are linkage aspects. The Quincunx,
Contra-parallel, and Contra-latitude also form linkages if the
aspect does not include a Saturnian planet.
About
Saturnian Planets
Clashes and Turbulent
Aspects
Stressful aspect angles.
All Squares and Oppositions are Clashes. Also considered to be
Clashes are the Quincunx, Contra-parallel, and Contra-latitude if
the aspect includes a Saturnian planet.
About
Saturnian Planets
Neutral Aspects
Zodiac7one, Zodiac7two, and Zodiac7three aspects are
considered neutral- neither positive nor negative.
Meanings for these aspects are drawn strictly from the
Magi Planetary Symbolisms.

Planetary
Geometry |

Planetary Geometry refers
to the shapes that result when lines are drawn between 3 or more planets
that are within Magi allowable orbs (listed above) to one another. Magi Society research has
shown that by working together synergistically, planets which form Planetary
Geometry operate MUCH more powerfully than planets which do not.
In fact, our research has
shown that Planetary Geometry is the single most important and powerful factor in any
chart. When doing any
type of chart interpretation, the first thing to consider is Planetary
Geometry. Planetary
Geometry can be MAGIc!Below are some examples of Planetary Geometry:
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Grand Trine |
|
Flying Eagle |
|
Mystical Triangle |
|
Fortress |
|
T-Square |
There are many more possible shapes, including both traditional
astrological patterns such as the Grand Cross, Yod and Minor Grand
Trine, as well as the Magi geometrical patterns such as the Fortress,
the Dragon, and the Spearhead. See below for more information on
these configurations.
The examples above are all in the longitudes- you see the planets
OUTSIDE the chart wheel. Planetary Geometry can also be formed in
the Geocentric Declinations and Heliocentric Latitudes. In Magi
Astrocharts, you see the graphic representations of the planets in
the declinations (deks) and latitudes INSIDE the polygon, as in the two examples of multiple parallels/contra-parallels, or
parallels/contra-latitudes below left. |
| |
|
|
|
Planetary
Synchronization is another Magi concept. This occurs when multiple planets make angles within
allowable orbs with one
another, but at least some of those planets do not form primary aspects. Such planets also work
synergistically together, though not with the same amazing strength as in
true Planetary Geometry. See an example at right. |

All Planetary Geometry is powerful, but all patterns are not equally
powerful. Several factors determine the relative power of a
geometrical pattern.
Number of Planets: The
power of Planetary Geometry is directly proportional to
the number of planets that form the Planetary Geometry –
the more planets involved, the more powerful the
Planetary Geometry.
Exactness: Although all
Magi orbs seem fairly tight, the more exact the aspects forming
Planetary Geometry, the more powerful the geometry.
Symmetry:
Patterns which are symmetrical are much more powerful than
asymmetrical patterns. The Grand Trine, Flying Eagle, Fortress,
T-Square and the declination/latitude pattern B shown above are
examples of Symmetrical Planetary Geometry. The Mystical Triangle
and the declination/latitude pattern A above are examples of
Non-Symmetrical Planetary Geometry.
Rarity:
All Planetary Geometry is powerful, but rare
Planetary Geometry is even more powerful-
the more rare the Planetary Geometry,
the more power it has. The rarest Planetary Geometry is comprised of
the most complex patterns and of the most planets.

Planetary
Geometry in
Combined Alignment Charts |
|
Planetary Geometry can also be formed when two charts are put
together into a Combined Alignment Chart, or CAC. In a CAC the same
Magi orbs described above are used to determine inter-aspects. Magi
Astrology software makes it easy to see how 2 sets of planets
interact with one another, by overlaying one set of planets over the
other, and drawing the lines between planets aspecting one another.
A simple example
is shown below. You can see that when lines are drawn between the 1st
person's planetary configuration in the left chart and the 2nd
person's single planet in the middle chart, the result is the
Symmetrical Planetary Geometry in the right chart: |
| |
|
|
+ |
|
= |
|
|
|
Planetary Geometry is also incredibly powerful when it is found
in a CAC, whether found in the CAC longitudes, or the CAC
declinations. Symmetrical Planetary Geometry between two natal
charts creates as powerful an effect in the relationship as it
does in a natal chart. Planetary Geometry between two people is
also MAGIc!
Planetary Geometry is so important in combined charts that we
have created a rule- The
Magi Astrology Principle of Predicting Future Relationships, which
states:
Combined Planetary Geometry creates attraction
and/or ties between the two persons that form the Planetary
Geometry. Two persons will not
have any serious association with each other unless they form strong
Planetary Geometry. The more powerful
the Planetary Geometry, the more serious the relationship that
develops, and the longer it will last.

Also, Planetary Geometry between any two charts is highly
significant, such as between one's natal chart and the chart of
a business incorporation date, domain purchase date, brokerage
account opening date, or between one's natal chart and the chart
of the day we met someone important.
Understanding the key importance of Planetary Geometry helps us
to understand natal charts and human relationships, and also
lays the groundwork for beginning to understand how to choose
important dates in our lives to create the life we want. |
Interpretation of Aspects and Planetary
Geometry |
|
To understand all the subtleties and nuances of interpretation
of Planetary Aspects and Planetary Geometry in Magi Astrology,
time and lots of practice are really the best teachers. However,
interpretation really boils down to this basic formula:
|
| |
Aspects & Geometry are interpreted by
combining:
A. the Meaning of the Planetary Geometry or
Aspect, with
B. the Magi Symbolisms of the planets involved.
|
|
|
| |
Planets
Symbolic meanings of the planets in Magi Astrology can be found in the
lesson:
Planetary Symbolisms in Magi Astrology.
A general consideration: Jupiter involved in any aspect is almost always
helpful, and improves the interpretation of the aspect. Saturn involved in
any aspect is almost always stressful, and degrades the interpretation of
the aspect. The same degradation is found with Sedna, and sometimes
with Juno.
|
Aspects
As described earlier in this lesson, Conjunctions, Trines and Parallels are called Pure Enhancements, and are considered to be positive
unless one or more of the planets involved are Saturn, Juno or Sedna, in
which case even these can be problematic.
The quincunx, contra-parallel, and contra-latitude are considered
enhancements and positive UNLESS one of the planets is
Saturn. In that case the aspect is referred to as a clash and is considered
to be stressful. Squares
and Oppositions are called clashes, and are considered stressful. However,
Clashes between favorable planets, such as Jupiter and Neptune,
are actually much less stressful than Saturn linkages.
Some of the basic themes of two-planet aspects
are below:
|
| |
Aspect Themes
Conjunctions and Parallels = blended energies
Trines = flowing and highly synergistic energies
Quincunx, Contra-parallel &
Contra-latitude
WITHOUT
Saturn = harmonious and cooperative
energies
Quincunx, Contra-parallel &
Contra-latitude WITH Saturn = inharmonious and
uncooperative energies
Squares = competing energies, difficult to reconcile
Oppositions
= polarized energies, either/or, difficult to balance

Geometric
Patterns
Some of the
patterns listed below are also found in traditional astrology, others are
Magi patterns discovered in our ongoing research. The Magi Society has not
yet revealed to the public all of our findings on Planetary
Geometry, hence some of these patterns lack complete
descriptions. Descriptions will be updated as more information
is made public by the Magi Society.
Dragon
Complex Planetary Geometry of
3 or more planets. Dragons start with two planets forming a
quincunx aspect. Dragon Points are then located at the 60°, 90°,
120°, and 150° points moving around the long
side of the wheel in either direction. When a third
planet is found on any of these Dragon Points, a Dragon is
formed. One caveat is that the third planet may be
within a 1°
wider orb than the orb made by of the original quincunx
aspect. This actually can allow a slightly wider orb
for the third planet than is usual in Magi
Astrology.
A Dragon may be formed in a
CAC with a natal quincunx in one chart, and with a Dragon
Point occupied by a planet from the other person. A
transiting Dragon may be formed with a one transiting planet
forming a quincunx with a natal planet, and a second
transiting planet occupying a Dragon Point.
A Dragon can contain a Yod, but can also
contain a Mystical Triangle. Romantic Dragons are comprised
of Romance planets and Sexual Dragons are comprised
of Sexual planets.
A Romantic Dragon can signify
True Love.
A Sexual
Dragon can consume the two people involved- it is a sign of
virtually irresistible and insatiable sexual attraction.
Fosters the illusion of True Love, but in and of itself is
only a sign of intense lust. See
See Magi Planets.
Flying Eagle
Four
or more planets forming a parallelogram with 2 trines on sides, 1 square at base, 2 quincunxes inside,
and a semi-sextile at the top.
A rare and powerful pattern containing 2
Mystical Triangles working together.
The native or relationship can
really soar in the areas indicated by the symbolisms of the planets
involved.
Fortress
Any rectangle with 2 parallel sides
Invincible Fortress: A rectangle
with 2 parallel sides, with a third side a
trine
Mighty Fortress: Fortress with sextiles for 2 sides
Gives great strength to the
native or relationship in the areas symbolized by the
planets involved in the Fortress. See
See Magi Planets
Golden Rectangle
A planetary
geometric configuration composed of four or more planets which create a
rectangle formed by 2 trines and 2 sextiles. One type of Fortress.
Highly favorable.
Grand Cross
A minimum of four planets forming 2 oppositions at right angles to one
another which also form 4 squares.
Highly stressful geometry.
Grand Sextile
A planetary geometric pattern of
four or more planets forming a
parallelogram shape with an opposition on one side and creating three sextiles. One type of
Mighty Fortress.
Highly favorable.
Grand Trine
A minimum of three planets making 3 trines forming an equilateral
triangle.
The strongest and most favorable three-planet configuration- tremendous harmony and synergy.
Iron Butterfly
A minimum of four planets forming a parallelogram with 2 squares on sides, 1
trine at base, 2 quincunxes inside, and a sextile on top.
Immovable determination coupled with the agility of a butterfly.
Mystical Triangle
A minimum of three planets making 1 trine, 1 square, 1 quincunx forming an
asymmetrical triangle.
Can indicate harmony and synergy, but much depends on the
planets and their positions . A more negative planet such as Saturn at the juncture of
the square and quincunx can be cause for concern. Easier to deal with in
financial situations than in romantic relationships.
Spearhead
Any triangle
where two sides are equal in length- this would include the Yod and the
Grand Trine.
Invincible Spearhead:
A planetary geometric pattern of 6 or more planets which form a Grand
Trine and a Yod, with the apex of the Yod conjunct one point of the
Grand Trine. The 6th planet is opposite the apex, forming the shaft of
the spear.
A rare and powerful pattern which gives near-invincible
strength.
Super Spearhead: includes a Super Aspect.
See Super
Aspects in Magi Astrology.
Powerful winning geometry.
T-Square
A planetary geometric pattern of
three or more planets consisting of an opposition, with a 3rd
planet at right angles to and squaring each of the opposed
planets.
Highly turbulent geometry.
Yod
A minimum of three planets forming a triangle with 2 quincunxes
as sides and a sextile at base. One type of Spearhead.
|
For other
Geometric Patterns: refer back to the basic Interpretation
Guideline:
|
| |
Geometry is interpreted
by combining:
A. the Meaning of the Planetary Geometry or
Aspect, with
B. the Magi Symbolisms of the planets involved.
|
|
|
|
See Planetary Symbolisms in Magi Astrology |
Interpretation Example 1:
In their CAC, a couple has a
combined Grand Trine comprised of Romance Planets - Neptune,
Chiron and Venus.
To interpret this combine:
The Grand Trine (tremendous
harmony and synergy) + Three Romance
Planets (Love)
=
Tremendous harmony and synergy in Love.
Interpretation Example 2:
By transit, the native has a T-Square composed of a natal
Chiron Square Jupiter, with transiting Saturn making an
Opposition to Chiron and a Square to Jupiter.
To interpret, combine:
The T-Square (Highly
turbulent) + Saturn-Chiron Clash (Heartbreak Clash) +
Saturn-Jupiter Clash (Nuclear Clash)
= Heartbreak and Nuclear
Transits made worse by Turbulent Planetary Geometry.

Important keys
to Interpretation of Planetary Geometry:
|
| |
Enhancement Dominance
In favorable Planetary Geometry, the rule of Enhancement
Dominance holds that most of the time, Enhancement
angles in the Geometry will reverse
negative symbolisms of any Clash angle in the same Geometry, making them
positive.
Offset
In the interpretation of Clash Aspects, the symbolisms
of the planets forming the aspect are reversed, with the
focus on the negative symbolisms. This is always true
for two-planet Clash Aspects. When a Clash Aspect is
part of favorable Planetary Geometry, Enhancement
Dominance prevails about 3/4 of the time. However, if
Saturn is part of the Clash Aspect, the negative
symbolisms are not reversed but strengthened. Offset is
only used in CAC's, Event Charts and Historic
Charts. It is not used in Natal (Birth) Charts.
It is important to
note that in Magi Astrology, though an aspect or geometrical pattern may have negative symbolisms
by transit or progression, we believe that ALL planetary aspects in a
person's birth chart represent a gift of some kind.
Matching
Symbolisms
Planetary Geometry
is ALWAYS powerful. However, Planetary Geometry ONLY
works the way you want it to when the combined symbolisms of
the planets involved are consistent with the endeavor the chart
represents. For example, powerful Planetary Geometry composed of
business planets would not necessarily support a romantic relationship, and
romantic Planetary Geometry would not necessarily support a business endeavor.
Relative
Power of Planetary Geometry
The
power of any specific Planetary Geometry is directly
proportional to the number of planets that form the
Planetary Geometry – the more planets involved, the more
powerful the Planetary Geometry.
The
power of Planetary Geometry is directly proportional to
how exact the Planetary Geometry is - the more exact the
aspects of the planets forming the Planetary Geometry,
the more powerful the Planetary Geometry.
Symmetrical Planetary Geometry is more powerful than
non-symmetrical Planetary Geometry.

Each of these online lessons is an important building
block in learning to be proficient in Magi Astrology.
However, no one element of analysis should be taken out
of context or assume a greater importance than
others- the entire picture must be taken into account.
Tempting as it is, just looking at the individual pieces
of a chart or charts- sometimes called "cookbook"
astrology- cannot really describe a relationship or
situation fully, as every element impacts every other
element. The goal is complete astrological synthesis-
when all the elements present join together to form a
complete, interrelated whole.
The Magi Society has not yet revealed to the public all
of the information discovered in our ongoing research. I am only at
liberty to discuss research findings which have already been
revealed to the public. I apologize if you are left with questions
unanswered. Lessons will be updated as more information is made public by
the Magi Society.
