The tightest aspects in Pablo Picasso's chart

An aspect is the angle between two planets; the smaller the orb, the more closely their themes are read as bound together. The tightest in this chart:

  • Mercury opposition Jupiter, orb 0.7°. Mercury symbolizes thinking, speech, learning and exchange; Jupiter, growth, faith, generosity and meaning. A opposition is usually described as a pull between two sides that mirror each other.
  • Uranus trine Neptune, orb 1.5°. Uranus symbolizes change, freedom, originality and surprise; Neptune, dreams, imagination, compassion and blurred boundaries. A trine is usually described as a natural, easy flow of support.
  • Mars sextile Saturn, orb 2.9°. Mars symbolizes drive, desire, courage and anger; Saturn, structure, responsibility, limits and maturity. A sextile is usually described as an easy cooperation that rewards a little effort.

Stelliums and patterns

  • Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto in Taurus: three or more planets in one sign make a stellium, and that sign's themes stand out in the chart.
  • Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto in the 10th house: the part of life this house covers carries a lot of weight.
