Why I think Minor Aspects are Important in spite of being subtle

I am well aware that a lot of people dismiss the minor aspects which are based on harmonics other than the
1st(conjunction),2nd(opposition,3rd(trine),4th(square),6th(sextile),and 12th(semisextile,quincunx) to be
unimportant and that you can get all the information with just seeing the major aspects which are aspects thatyou can easily see because they are whole sign aspects. I don't agree with that at all. I feel that if we overlook
the minor aspects, we will miss fine details. It would be like looking at a letter and not seeing the fine print.
Some even say that it's the little mistakes that can end up biting you in the butt. One little fray in rope can getworse over a time and it can wear down and the rope can snap in two. That is same with erosion. One little

rusted spot on metalic part of an airplane can lead to greater damage. Maybe I am looking at this in a Virgoan
type away because I am looking at the trees. However, I am also looking at this in a Pisces type because I am
looking at the forest too. I believe that we can miss the big picture,if we overlook the minor aspects...especially
if they form aspect patterns or harmonic syndromes which is when planets of the same harmonic aspect eachother to form a pattern. For example: A grand trine consists of 3 planets in trine to each other. A t-square is a
4th harmonic syndrome which consists of 2 planets in opposition(2/4)with a planet in square(1/4) to that
opposition. A yod is a 12th harmonic syndrome which consists of 2 planets in sextile(2/12)with a planet
quincunx(5/12) to that sextile. These form geometrical patterns that tend to be a dominant factor in the chart.
Subtle doesn't mean unimportant. Astronomers say that planets have too extremely subtle influences to affectus,but they but they have vibrational energy. The planets do affect us regardless of how far they away they arefrom us
It makes me think of cancer. Cancer is subtle,but it destroys cells in our body that can lead to destruction oftissue,organs,and organ system,and body parts.
We have chromosomes,genes,cells that we can't see. They are very subtle ,but they are so important. The way I
see harmonics is like our chromosomes,genes,cells. Just like all those chromosomes and genes combined makeup the human body,all the harmonics combined can make up the chart.
Chromosomes and genes are linked to various disorders,condition,and personality characteristic traits. I believethat hits on the harmonics can be linked to specific personality stuff. Therefore I see our natal charts likecelestial DNA
Our DNA can be altered very subtly through our environment and interactions with others as their energy fuseswith ours reflected by synastry. synastry - biological interactions which is what we call chemistry. It's possible
some people can be bad for our health. Maybe their energy can have an adverse effect on our energy. Maybe
their presence cause disturbance in our biochemical makeup. Maybe their own conscious and unconscious
thoughts can cause disturbance in our biochemical makeup if we are actually transceivors(both transmit andreceive).
Who knows...maybe the harmonics in astrology can equate the actual genes in our body. a whole bunch for thatmatter. Definitely every chromosome and gene is important. One defect can cause problems but they might be
hard to detect. I believe in astrogenetics. I believe that that maybe the key to looking at family hereditary isthrough the harmonics.
People say that just looking at the basic stuff in the chart is the whole picture. I equate that as just examining
the person by looking at their body parts and seeing how they move and interact with each other. But the bodyparts aren't the whole entire person. There is the inside of the human body that contain systems which areresponsible for certain functions in our body. Those organ systems consists of organs which consist of tissues
which consist of cells. It is these things that help determine how the body functions. It's not just how the bodyis formed. We definitely can't tell most diseases from looking at the body. We look at the blood and look at thecells in the blood.
Energy particles are just as complexed. Molecules are small particles that make up all living and nonliving
things. We have more molecules in our body than our universe has stars. Molecules consist of atoms which
consist of protons(positively charged particles)and electrons(negatively charged particles). The electrons andprotons make me think of yin and yang which can be in many forms like Moon(yin) and Sun(yang),female(yin)and male(yang),negative integers(yin)and positive integers(yang), water,earth signs(yin)andfire,airsigns(yang),and so on. Yin and Yang energies complement each other even though they are opposing
but when together,they become a whole like the southern hemisphere(yin) and southern hemisphere(yang)
combine to make up the earth.
You definitely can't underestimate the little stuff. The splitting of the atom lead to atomic fusion which madeatom bombs possible. Albert Einstein proved mathematically that atoms exist (in his Brownian motion paper)with the formula, E=mc² in which E = Energy, m = Mass, and c = The speed of light (a physical constant). In
the 30's, Einstein wrote to President Roosevelt about the possibility of producing a weapon of mass destruction
based on this equation.

overlooking the tiniest things in a chart is a good idea. Pluto,a planet that is said to rule nuclear power,is thesmallest planet in our solar system. It is incredibly powerful planet despite its size with it being much smaller
than our Earth's Moon. The effects of Pluto can be transforming to the point of devastating. Pluto has provento be an underdog now..especially with its demotion from planet to minor planet with a classification as dwarfplanet. I think that the so-called minor harmonic aspects are underdog aspects that actually raise some loudnoise in spite of its subtle nature just like little Pluto,nuclear energy,and cancer. BTW...I believe that Albert
Einstein's 9 minutes of arc Mercury septile(7th harmonic:mystical or a "beclouding effect,) Pluto helped him
into unlocking the mysteries of the universe. It's very interesting that his Mercury was in a subtle aspect to themost subtle planet,and he understood one of the most subtle energy particles.

Re: Why I think Minor Aspects are Important« Reply #2 - on: 05.04.2007 at 04:08 [UT+1] »When I saw that astrodienst had a forum, I came looking expressly for information on subtle aspects because
so little is written about them. I just posted this in another place, but it fits here, too. My own experience withthese aspects is that as I get older, I've developed a solid understanding of how the "major" aspects work in mylife. The minor aspects present opportunities to better understand the bigger picture and offer potentiallybetter / new ways of looking at the "same old" transits. By presenting a refined picture of what is before me, I
have an opportunity to choose a different way forward.
I hope that there will be more posts on this topic!

I find that after 45 years of reading astrology books and looking at mychart in all the basic ways these minor aspects give me a fresh perspective. Have you taken a look at the Toaaspect thread? A post from Ruud gives a couple of really good sites on minor aspects.

As the person who started the Tao aspect thread, I learned so much about this that I was able to answer thequestion on the same subject that I posed on the Kairon webforum--and I thought that they would know theanswer first. But I learned more on this forum than anywhere else.
And I agree that the "minor" aspects can have quite a bit of power to them (especially in the case of thequintile/biquintile aspects).
