Hard aspects represent dynamic interchanges occurring through challenges, opposing forces, and personnel crisis. Very rarely do they fail to produce prominent events, especially with the conjunction and opposition, usually indicating the beginning and ending of phases in your life. The squares often present challenges, providing you with the opportunity to make necessary changes within an area of your life. Some are strong and some are week.

The Conjunction: This is a powerful angle because it is a major blending of two energies. This aspect is intense, dynamic, concentrated, energized and competitive. Whether it is negative or positive will depend on the compatibility of the planets involved, as well as how you have been living your life up until this point, and the decisions you make during the cycle.

The Opposition: This is another powerful aspect because it's energies tend to pull you first in one direction, then in another, causing instability and conflict in your life. This angle operates like a seesaw. You'll need equal weight on both sides. Equality is usually created through reconciliation and compromise. It can indicate that there will be forces opposing the desires you want to fulfil most in life. Usually a time of culmination and the reaping of the rewards of past efforts, with the opportunity to make changes that will lead to new levels.

The Square: This aspect is next in power, challenging in its manifestations. It is a dynamic interchange of energy which brings change and teaches endurance through challenge. You should look at these challenges carefully, and decide weather or not to make changes or to stand firm.
