The conjunction is the furnace of becoming — a place where two planetary archetypes melt into each other and create a new, fused identity. Nothing is separate here. The planets share a pulse, a rhythm, a will. This is the aspect of entanglement, where boundaries blur and the emotional, psychological, or mythic storyline becomes tightly interwoven. Conjunctions are neither “good” nor “bad” — they are inevitable, potent, and identity‑shaping.
The aspect: Two planets at the same degree of the zodiac (0° separation). This aspect comes from the idea that planetary energies combine when they occupy the same point in the ecliptic.
- Conjunctions intensify whatever planets are involved.
- They can feel like “one planet wearing two masks.”
- They often indicate early‑life imprinting or core identity themes.
- They are the strongest aspect in the chart.
Harmonic: The conjunction belongs to the 1st harmonic, the foundation of all aspect geometry. The 1st harmonic represents unity, identity, and singular focus — the point where all other harmonics originate.
