Midpoint Parallels Study
The Midpoint Parallels Study generates an event whenever two transiting bodies are precisely parallel or contraparallel and the near midpoint of their longitudes is conjunct (within orb) a third transiting body. The study identifies declinational sympathies that are activated by an arriving body.

Events Captured
A Midpoint Parallels event occurs when two transiting bodies form an exact parallel or contraparallel and a third transiting body is conjunct (within orb) the near midpoint of the first two bodies' longitudes.
