Stellium Activations

A Stellium Activations study finds the moments when three transiting bodies form a Stellium while at least one of them is activating a natal body.

Creating a Stellium Activations Study

To create a Stellium Activations study:

  • Click Transit Studies → Stellium Activations on the menu bar.

The new study opens with your workspace's default settings, ready to configure.

Events Captured

A Stellium forms when three bodies gather in conjunction within orb. This study reports each time three transiting bodies form a Stellium while at least one of them is conjunct, within the transit orb, a natal body. That conjunction activates the natal body.

Each event records the three transiting bodies of the stellium, the angular separation between each pair, and the activated natal body, along with each body's position and motion.

Events Table Columns

The events table lists the following columns for a Stellium Activations study. Many are hidden by default; you can show or hide any column by right-clicking a column header (see Event Column Visibility). Longitude and latitude columns show ecliptic values, or right ascension and declination when the study uses an equatorial reference plane.
