Abraham Ibn Ezra, Introductions to Astrology, Shlomo Sela edition/translation (2017)

Introductions to Astrology is an astrological source represented here through cited material on application, conjunction, planetary condition, planetary speed, and reception.

The cited material covers application, conjunction, planetary condition, planetary speed, and reception.

Approach begins when a faster direct planet in the same sign moves toward a slower one from within fifteen degrees. Conjunction is separately defined by each planet entering the other's bodily power, becoming complete at the same degree and minute.

Benefic contact, application, speed, increasing light, dignity, reception, and related conditions strengthen a planet according to its nature; multiple favorable conditions compound rather than replace one another, while contrary conditions weaken it.

The received ancient rule denies conjunction across a sign boundary even when both planets remain within bodily power, but Ibn Ezra records his own disagreement; Dorotheus is separately cited for a 7.5-degree bodily range for superior planets.

This overview is limited to the cited portions. It does not stand in for the complete work, reproduce source passages, or make every documented technique a universal chart interpretation.
