Mundane Aspects

The Mundane Aspects study finds the exact dates when a pair of transiting bodies forms an aspect to each other.

Creating a Mundane Aspects Study

To create a Mundane Aspects study:

• Click Mundane Studies → Aspects → Mundane Aspects on the menu bar.

The new study is added to the Studies list and opens with your workspace's default settings, ready to configure. You can also create it from the study-group dropdown button on the main toolbar.

Events Captured

This study records an event each time a chosen pair of transiting bodies forms an aspect to one another. Every event pairs an inner (faster) body with an outer (slower) body.

An event fires when the cycle angle between the two bodies exactly matches one of the angles listed in the study's Aspects table. Because the listed angles carry no orb, each event marks an exact aspect rather than an approximate one. The study works only with transiting bodies, so it makes no reference to natal positions.

Events Table Columns

The events table can display the following columns for this study. Many are hidden by default; to show or hide any column, right-click a column header (see Event Column Visibility). Column headers that name longitude or latitude are relabeled to right ascension and declination when the study's Reference System uses an equatorial reference plane.

Column	Description
Date Time	Local date/time when the two bodies form the aspect.
Inner Body	Inner body of the aspecting pair.
Inner Body Longitude	Inner body ecliptic longitude (or right ascension).
Inner Body Sign	Zodiac sign of the inner body.
Inner Body Latitude	Inner body latitude (or declination).
Inner Body Distance	Inner body distance.
Inner Body Speed	Inner body longitudinal speed.
Cycle Angle	Cycle angle (aspect) formed between the bodies.
Phase	Applying or separating phase of the aspect.
Separation	Angular separation from the exact aspect.
Outer Body	Outer body of the aspecting pair.
Outer Body Longitude	Outer body ecliptic longitude (or right ascension).
Outer Body Sign	Zodiac sign of the outer body.
Outer Body Latitude	Outer body latitude (or declination).
Outer Body Distance	Outer body distance.
Outer Body Speed	Outer body longitudinal speed.
Event Interval	Interval (days) since the previous event.
