What is the empty phase in astrology?

Planetary phase plays an important role in astrology, because the analysis of planetary phase has high accuracy, and the interpretation of phase is roughly the same in eastern or western astrology. We can say that the phase of the planet is the soul of astrology. Many astrologers, after several years of in-depth study of astrology, often encounter some problems, especially the differences in various ways of housing distribution (that is, how to divide the zodiac), or there are many different explanations for the interpretation of a planet in a certain house. Generally, astrologers just adopt a set of methods that they think are most suitable, and then accumulate experience to improve accuracy. However, there is no such problem in the interpretation of planetary phase. In practical experience, planetary phase is used to explain a person's personality tendency, external environment (possible causal events) and so on. There are often unexpected correct rates, and sometimes even astrologers themselves don't believe that they will be so accurate. The so-called planetary phase refers to the angle between planets in the sky at the moment of your birth. The more important angles are: conjunction: the angle between two planets is close to 0 degrees, that is, coincidence. Three phases: This is an excellent phase, and the angle between the two planets is 120 degrees. Hexagonal phase: This is also an excellent phase. The angle between the two planets is 60 degrees. The phases are opposite: the two planets are opposite, forming 180 degrees, which is a bad phase and can be said to be "hedging". Quadrant: This is also a bad phase. The angle between the two planets is 90 degrees. There are other relatively unimportant phases, such as 45 degrees, 150 degrees and so on, which are rarely considered. Conjunctive phase can be said to be the most powerful phase, but after two planets overlap, the effect will depend entirely on the characteristics of the two planets, which may not have a good effect or a bad effect, that is to say, conjunctual phase is neutral in good or bad luck. The conjunction represents the energy fusion of two planets. If the characteristics of the two planets can be well matched, the conjunction is very beneficial. If the characteristics of these two planets will conflict with each other, it means some kind of negative influence. When a planet coincides with the sun, ancient astrologers call this situation that this planet is "burned" by the sun, which may cause another planet to suffer. The closer the phase is, the more obvious this phenomenon will be, which will have an obvious effect in people's life. This phenomenon will be considered in our analysis of constellations. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the coincidence of the sun and other planets will have a certain "dyeing" effect on the sun constellation. For example, if someone's chart has the same sun and Venus, and his sun sign is Capricorn, then you can say that this person's personality characteristics include Taurus and Libra besides Capricorn, because Venus is in charge of Taurus and Libra; For another example, if someone's sun sign is Gemini, but his sun coincides with Saturn, then this person's personality traits must consider some characteristics of Capricorn besides Gemini, because Saturn is in charge of Capricorn. Quadrant is a very unfavorable phase, which represents the tension between two planets, especially when the characteristics of the two planets conflict. A person with this aspect, his personality may fluctuate back and forth between the two planets, making people feel that his personality or behavior is inconsistent, and he himself suffers greatly. He often ignores the characteristics of another planet because he pursues the characteristics of one planet, but unfortunately, he feels that these two characteristics are very important to him, so he feels very depressed. Moreover, most people in this field can't perceive their own problems. They can't consciously realize that their pain comes from the disharmony between their inner soul and their external behavior. They just feel that they are periodically influenced by the external environment. We can explore this lack of consciousness from two aspects: first, because of his inner desires or his habits, he is obsessed with ideas or concepts that he thinks are beneficial to him, and he cannot perceive (or deny) that some of his ideas are actually contradictory, which is the reason for his pain; Secondly, his arrogant attitude makes him feel that there is nothing wrong with him. Other people outside or the external environment caused his problems. He may feel that others have hurt him, or that he is particularly unlucky, so things are not going well. To improve this situation, first of all, he must learn to observe his emotions and desires more rationally, and realize that often some emotions and desires only occupy himself for a short time, and there can be no real ideal in his heart; Secondly, he must learn to "let go", let go of some short-lived desires and succumb to higher ideas and goals. The opposite phase is a conflict phase, which means that the energy between the two planets conflicts with each other and cannot reach balance, so the behavior in some aspects may be extreme, so coordination and balance are the courses that this person must learn. As far as experience is concerned, almost everyone has the opposite stage. Compared with the quartering phase, the quartering phase feels more like the result of a causal cycle, which means it is more easily reflected in external events. For example, if someone's Venus and Pluto are in a quadrant, then this person is more vulnerable to setbacks in love, for example, he feels hurt because of some people or things, but most of these setbacks will be reflected in his heart, not necessarily related to someone; But if Venus and Pluto are paired, it feels more like he is destined to have an emotional injury. Moreover, people with opposites are more likely to find their own problems, because problems often occur outside, and because difficulties appear on the same face again and again, he may find that these difficulties are created unconsciously by himself. Once he breaks through this bottleneck, he can begin to take on his due responsibilities. People with opposite phases need to learn to "soften" their body and mind, that is, learn to adjust themselves in a gentle, comfortable and firm way, put themselves in others' shoes as much as possible (this can reduce the occurrence of external conflicts), and consider the well-meaning suggestions of others. In fact, from another angle, let's look at four-phase and anti-phase Although we traditionally call it an "unfavorable" or "bad" stage, it is the key to a person's self-breakthrough. Almost everyone has several bad aspects that deserve our deep thought. From the perspective of reincarnation, since we have been to this world, there must be lessons worth learning. If we just want to live a comfortable life, we may fail to live up to the original meaning of our life. As far as experience is concerned, many great men who can realize their ideals will have some bad aspects in their lives (perhaps more than ordinary people), but they will stick to their ideals and lead them through these tests, thus making contributions to the world; In other words, it is these "bad" phases that can guide them forward, not the "good" phases of sextile or trine. Trident: Trident's aspect symbolizes some luck, attraction, or some natural advantage in character, and sometimes it also represents an innate talent. The benefits of the three are natural and natural, which makes people feel as if they are taken for granted, while ignoring its significance and value. A person with a three-point astrolabe should consciously explore the advantages of his talent and use good luck to realize his ideals. From the causal point of view, there are three stages, which show that this person has learned some lessons and done some good things in the past, such as love, humility, honesty and courage. So he was born with these advantages and can be said to be enjoying the fruits of past efforts. But from experience, if a person's astrolabe has only a lot of good aspects of three or six aspects, but no bad aspects, it doesn't mean that he is a perfect person. We can only say that he is a very blessed person. Without the cooperation of other factors in the astrolabe, this person may become weak, overly optimistic, or superficial, because he has no pain for him to observe and break through, and his mind may not develop sensitivity and keenness. He is more likely to take his own advantages and good luck for granted, which is the result of his own efforts, so he may not believe in causality or fate. In this case, his life may not have made great progress. Hexagonal phase: Hexagonal phase is similar to Hexagonal phase, and it also symbolizes the energy coordination between two planets. This kind of coordination embodies the advantage of personality or some kind of good luck. But in astrological experience, it is difficult to judge whether a person has played the advantage of sextile. Generally, it is regarded as a potential or a potential opportunity, which requires one's efforts to develop this advantage.
