Aspect patterns, or planetary configurations, show a combination of planetary influences, providing a more holistic understanding of a horoscope. Much more than aspects alone, they provide information about strengths and weaknesses, as well as how to work with them.
In the following articles on aspect pattern astrology, I often reference “Aspect Pattern Astrology” by Bruno and Louise Huber, 2005. They suggest only using planets and not other points like the Ascendant or Midheaven. It is also advisable to stay within the suggested maximum orbs for the individual aspects.
