for those in the know, regarding midpoints in natals:

for the direct midpoint in interpretation, can we consider conjunctions to either as valid, i mean they are both midpoints, or are we just talking about the MP that remains closer to the 2 planets/angles in question?

for example - Sun @ 19 Libra / ASC @ 19 Aquarius = closer mp is 19 Sagittarius, then would natal conjunctions to 19 Gemini be valid as well in looking at the midpoints, or would we just be paying attention to 19 Sagittarius? because it seems to me that in orb (2 degrees) the mp axis in question (19 Gemini/Sagittarius example) should resonate with the energy in a similar manner. mind you i'm not referring to indirect midpoints and that whole gaggle, just the direct.

Conjunctions and Oppositions are valid. I think squares too? Maybe not.

conjunctions,oppositions,squares,semisquares,and sesquiquadrates are valid aspects for midpoints

even parallels and contraparallels

Cosmobiologists use all those aspects

the Uranian Astrologers also use the 22.5 series of aspects

Cosmobiology is an offshoot of Uranian Astrology

also Uranian astrologers look at midpoints aspecting midpoints , and they refer to them as planetary pictures


Isosceles trapezoids are also midpoints in conjunction or oppositions

“It is absolutely the perfect name,” Dr. Brown said, given the continuing discord among astronomers and the public over whether Pluto should have retained its planetary status.

In mythology, Eris ignited discord that led to the Trojan War.

“She causes strife by causing arguments among men, by making them think their opinions are right and everyone else’s is wrong,” Dr. Brown said. “It really is just perfect.”

ok, interpreting squares for MP is beyond me right now i'm more referring to what would be a midpoint picture i believe they're called, the most basic one which is the level i'm on, so let's take a perfect opposition, say Sun 5 Cancer opp Mars 5 Capricorn, would it be 5 Libra or 5 Aries or could we look at both? which sign could we add to this equation: Cancer Sun/Capricorn Mars MP = 5 _____ ?

EDIT, ok scratch whatever i know of pictures relating to midpoints since it's zilch, just the basic question is fine

or do we just look at what astro.com says is the MP on the pullen chart (no i am not a math guru!) and leave it there regarding conjunctions? thank you!

5 Libra is the near direct midpoint
5 Aries is the far direct midpoint

BTW

In midpoint astrology like cosmobiology,uranian astrology, and even Noel Tyl's Astrology, there is no difference between conjunction,opposition,square,semisquare,sesquiquadrate,22.5 series aspects when it comes to interpreting midpoint pictures.
it's not the angle that matters....it's the planets,angles in combination that matter

that's why midpoint pictures use the equal sign in place of the aspect glyph

for instance

Mercury = Sun/Neptune

ooh, what's the site?

hey wouldn't a 5 cancer / 5 cap midpoint be whichever is mathematically closer? unless we're talking exact right down to the second.
