Yeah..exact biquintiles like that are significant........especially if you consider harmonics. I definitely believe that my Sun biquintile Midheaven and Mercury biquintile Eris both with 6 minutes of arc are significant and can strongly relate to them. I believe that it's also a No-No to stretch biquintiles to make them wide orbed quincunxes like somebody tried to do that with my Mars biquintile Pluto in this forum.
You can also find that a true biquintile will be conjunct in a 5th harmonic chart within 12 degree orb. It would not show as a conjunction in a 12th harmonic,and it would even be 30 degrees apart too. That's one way to find out the aspect orb power. It was Johannes Kepler who devised the biquintile along with the quintile and sesquiquadrate. He did that based on musical harmonic theory. http://go.webassistant.com/wa/upload/users/u1000057/pages/0603-632212137Pu5bMz6A7Yi/kepler.html
He was an astrologer that didn't believe in signs and houses which he denounced as Arabic Sorcery because of their roots with the Babylonians aka Chaldeans. Ptolemy used aspects by signs and not by geometrical angle. Therefore,aspects were originally wholesign aspects,but were later changed as geometrical angle aspects. Of course some astrological systems still use wholesign aspects like Vedic Astrologers and Classical Astrologers. Johannes Kepler was the one that came up with the concept of minor aspects.
Did the discoverer of quintiles,biquintiles,and sesquiquadrates have some of his own.
Yes he did
Moon quintile Pluto - '00
(he didn't know that Pluto existed)
Moon biquintile Uranus - 1'17
(he didn't know that Uranus existed)
Mercury quintile Jupiter - 1'03
Mars biquintile Eris - '52
(he didn't know that Eris existed)
Moon sesquiquadrate Venus - '23
exact biquintiles appear as close conjunctions in a 5th harmonic chart as well as many other harmonic charts divisible by 5.
David Cochrane wrote some stuff about higher harmonics too.
Octaves of 5 (5, 10, 20, 40) are creative and playful, octaves of 7 are introverted, quiet, abstract, and inclined to symbolism, and octaves of 9 are healing, integrating, and create a sense of wholeness. The number 9 is equal to 3 times 3 of course, and therefore is not a prime number but in cosmic cybernetics appears to behave similar to a prime number.
Some of the key harmonics that influence cultural development are:
35: High art and artistic sophistication. Mature and abstract creativity.
that comes from the combination of the 5th and 7th harmonic.....5 X 7 = 35
45: A sense of paradise or utopia, like angels playing harps on clouds, a Thomas Kincaid painting, or a colorful picture of Krishna playing his flute
that comes from the combination of the 5th and 9th harmonic....5 X 9 = 45
25: Creative genius. Entertainment, very creative artistic expression, curiosity, and playfulness.
that comes from 5 X 5 = 25
Your exact Venus biquintile Pluto would also be a 35th,45th,and 25th harmonic aspect......would appear as conjunctions in those charts.
