T O P I C R E V I E WPiscesmoongirlI have read the term ''prominent'' on the internet but i haven't fully understood it. When people say for example, a prominent Sun, do they mean it makes a lot of aspects? Sun is in it's natural position, the 5th house? Is part of a stellium? I have Moon in the 4th and Venus in the 7th. Does the placement alone make them prominent? And if yes, what happens when a planet is prominent? Is it strong? Does it have a sort of dignity?Sorry for the continuous questions... Doux RêveA prominent planet is a planet that makes a lot of aspects.It may or may not be positive in its expression, but it's usually quite noticeable and strongly expressed.PiscesmoongirlSo how many aspects make a planet prominent? Is three enough?And i just read that prominent can also be a planet that doesn't make any major aspects, it is ''calling'', so i don't think it is the number of aspects alone that can make it prominent.Violets quote:Originally posted by Doux Rêve:A prominent planet is a planet that makes a lot of aspects.It may or may not be positive in its expression, but it's usually quite noticeable and strongly expressed.Erm...what if all of the planets in your chart have *at least* two aspects, but most have three or four?!(My brain: "That means you're a complicated person.")

How many aspects is the most one of yours has? PiscesmoongirlThe most aspects my planet has? Well, if i have to include the wide orbs, and the trine to the ascendant, i guess my moon is making 6 aspects. Does that make it prominent?Doux RêveViolets Yep, complicated you are!Piscesmoongirl,Yes, that makes your Moon quite prominent.I think you were talking about unaspected planets when you said that the number of aspects doesn't make a prominent planet. Well, if a planet makes no aspects, that makes it prominent (paradoxically) because its energy is raw and unfiltered by other planets.But usually a prominent planet is one that "stands out" in some way - angular and/or with lots of aspects to it.

Piscesmoongirl,
