Planetary Relations Doctrine
Definition
Planetary relations gather several interaction concepts that explain how planets connect or interfere with one another.
the overview keeps the family broad and points readers toward narrower pages for aspects, reception, and medieval relation terms.
History and sources
The local notes use classical, late-antique, and Perso-Arabic references to keep relationship language source-aware rather than purely modern-taxonomic.
this overview should not be read as one historical author's complete system.
Variants
Relationship doctrine can include aspect contact, reception, enclosure, bonification, maltreatment, and other named interaction families.
This overview only establishes the reference grouping.
What this doctrine covers
The cited material supports a cited overview of planet-to-planet interaction as a page group.
Concrete rule pages should cite their own calculated conditions and locators.
Scope and limitations
The cited sources do not establish a complete set of interaction outcomes or a universal relationship score.
It should not be used to make event claims without narrower source backing.
Related practices
The family links to aspects, reception, medieval relations, and planetary condition.
Documented rules
7 documented rules in 1 sections
When speed data shows the source body moving toward the exact ecliptic aspect point, the relation is read as applying.
Two bodies whose signs do not join by the classical ray families are read as in aversion at the whole-sign relation layer.
Two bodies in signs joined by conjunction, sextile, square, trine, or opposition are read as witnessing by whole-sign ray.
Two bodies occupying the same sign are read as co-present, distinguishing same-place relation from rays or exact aspects.
A target body is read as enclosed only when it is uninterrupted between its immediate classical guards and both guards reach it by co-presence or whole-sign ray, without promoting the narrower medieval besiegement rule.
Overcoming identifies the planet on the right-hand, superior side of a sextile, square or trine. That planet has directional precedence in interpreting the contact. Sign order is circular: Capricorn is superior to Pisces, Aries and Taurus in these figures. Conjunction, opposition and aversion receive no unilateral direction from this geometry alone, and the relation does not establish an overall outcome.
When speed data shows the source body moving away from the exact ecliptic aspect point, the relation is read as separating.
