The Yod is one of the more commonly known aspect patterns which has quite a bad reputation!
Yet again, another triangular chart shape which is again rather easy to recognise, the Yod is formed of three planets, two sitting in sextile from each other and completed by a third planet apexing at quincunx (a.k.a. inconjunct) the sextile planets.
So why does the Yod have a bad reputation? If you go 150° north and south of the ascendant, you’ll find yourself standing on the cusp of the 6th and 8th houses.
Both houses are associated with health issues, and sit at an angle of dis-ease with the ascendant. Generally this aspect isn’t felt in an obvious way. Some describe it as the stone in the shoe which can irritate for a long time and eventually cause a bigger issue.
Being connected by the sextile offers a more noticeable post to connect with these planets, however the planet sitting at the apex is definitely a sensitive point which cannot successfully communicate with either planet it is connected to in the Yod.
This really gives us an idea of how the quincunx feels, and offers some understanding of how it is thought planets relate to each other in the Yod.
There’s nothing terribly foreboding about a Yod, and it doesn’t indicate particularly magical mystical powers at all, and though it is also known as the finger of fate, it’s not really a point of fate. That’s more Saturn and Pluto’s domain!
The Yod however can indicate issues which go unnoticed for a long time and then suddenly surface, causing our focus to be shifted away from other areas of our life. This can come in the form of illness as previously mentioned, but if can be through failing to address the areas of our life indicated by the Yod. The planet and house will indicate the areas to focus on.
The key to working with the Yod is to be aware of it. It is very hard to consciously integrate this planetary formation, as previously mentioned, the quincunx acts like a light switch, only one planet can be in operation at any one time.
With this in mind it is important to familiarise yourself with all the planets in your Yod and think about how you can consciously pay attention to all sides of your triangle and try to integrate them a little every day.
It’s hard work but this process can help to draw these planets into your awareness and help you to work productively with them.

I had originally recorded this episode as an audio version only but realised it was very difficult to describe without a visual prompt for listeners to refer to.
Yes, I could've added an image to the accompanying blog post, but I thought I would go one better and record an enhanced podcast for you to enjoy on my YouTube channel.
In a nutshell the conjunction, opposition, square, trine and sextile are all considered the major aspects.
Their relationship with the luminary-ruled signs is the key to how they are assigned their nature, and exploring this will help you to understand the underlying feel of each of the aspects and how they reveal themselves natally, by transit or even through synastry giving a sense of how planets communicate with each other.
Hopefully this gives a sense of how planets communicate with each other through aspect.
Please let me know if this enriched your understanding of the aspects and whether you recognise the application of aspects in your own natal chart.

I would love to record an episode on each of the minor aspects, but there are a few time constraints which prevent me from doing this currently.
However, I have recorded an episode with a brief explanation of each of the minor aspects so you can familiarise yourself with this information and explore at your own leisure.
The most ‘major’ of the minors in my humble opinion is the quincunx which is an aspect I often look at in consultation.
But each of the minor aspects can uncover deeper aspects of the personality contained within the natal chart and they can also reveal hidden gifts which may not be immediately obvious, but upon exploring these in your own natal chart these rather specific but subtle planetary connections uncover another dimension of your personality.
There is a tighter orb for each of the minor aspects, at 2°-3° each, which means they have to be tight to apply.
In this episode of The Stellium Astrology Podcast I talk about some of the minor planetary aspects in astrology and hope to inspire you to explore these subtle influences in your own natal chart.
