What is a opposition?
An opposition is formed when planets are roughly 180° apart, placing them on opposite sides of the chart. This creates a push and pull between two sides of you. Oppositions often show up through relationships or external situations and ask you to find balance rather than choosing one side over the other.
Key Takeaway
A opposition creates polarity awareness and balancing acts between planets. When you have this aspect in your chart, it shows tensions between different sides of yourself.
