I was frustrated at hunting through pages and pages for what I wanted So I made this shorthand. Boy has it ever been handy! Copy, paste and print. It should fit on ONE convenient sheet of paper. Leyla’s Easy Astrology-At-A-Glance

ASPECTS
Trine/Sextile: Planets hold hands and skip
Squares/Lesser Squares: Tug of war, don't agree
Oppositions: See-saw, hard to balance
Conjuncts: Destiny, difficult lessons, what you must go through.
Orbs: 10 to 15 degrees. Magnifies planets effect. (But make sure they're in the same sign)
SIMPLE WAY TO COMPARE TWO CHARTS
Signs of the same element are the trines.
Signs of complimentary elements (earth, air, fire, water) are the sextiles.
Signs of the same mode (fixed, cardinal, mutable) are the squares.
Signs of the same mode and complimentary elements are in opposition.
CARDINAL: (aggressive/pioneering/bossy) Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn
FIXED: (persistant/stable/stubborn) Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius
MUTABLE: (flexable/adaptable/wishy washy) Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces
