Major aspect
Sextile
Sixty degrees: an opportunity that has to be taken up to do anything.
- Angle
- 60°
- Orb used here
- ±5°
- Temper
- usually easy, and easy to leave unused
A sextile links two signs of compatible elements (fire with air, earth with water) and the two planets cooperate willingly. It is the friendliest of the aspects and the easiest to waste.
Where a trine tends to happen on its own, a sextile is a door left unlocked: the talent is available, and nothing forces you through it. This site allows five degrees of orb here, tighter than the others, because a wide sextile is faint enough to be noise.
Where to go next
What it joins
An aspect is what two planets do to each other, so the pair matters as much as the angle. Read both ends before reading the sextile.
Its orb
This site allows ±5° either side of exact. One within a degree does far more work than one at the edge of its orb, which is why every orb is listed rather than assumed.
