There seem to be two theories about how Unaspected Planets manifest.

1) The first theory is that, because the planet forms no major aspects to any other planets in the chart, it is free to operate in its purest form without hindrance. This would add extra power to the planet and perhaps make it the focal point of the native's chart, leaving all other planets to operate around the Unaspected planet's influence. In this case, the native would feel the planet's energy very potently and perhaps identify very strongly with the sign that planet rules mores than their own.

2) The second theory is that, because the planet forms no aspects to any other planets in the chart, it has no motivation or desire to express itself. Essentially, all other planets in the chart must compensate for the lack of influence the Unaspected planet has in the native's life. The native would tend not to resonate with cookbook descriptions of their Unaspected placings and this perhaps makes for an insecurity in this area of life. This would render this planet very weak in the chart of the native.

Quite conflicting theories, wouldn't you say? How does your Unaspected planet manifest in your life?

there were some things in the cookbook description that resonated with me.

Moon does not have any major aspects, though it is exactly quinkunx Saturn

Sun and Mercury have a conjunction to each other by under one degree. Some would count the sextile to Uranus by 6 degrees, some do not. It would be an out of sign sextile, too.
If it doesn`t count, Sun, Mercury and Uranus are also unaspected.

@Ceridwen: I don't take soft aspects (i.e.: quincunx) into account when deciphering whether a planet is Unaspected or not. I would say your Moon is definitely Unaspected. I can't say the same for your Sun/Mercury, because they are obviously conjunct one another. Unaspected Moon tends to have mother issues -- whether it's an obsession with the mother or issues surrounding her not being present in the child's life as she should have been. It makes the native extremely nurturing and impressionable, though he/she may not see this themself.

@RedScorp: My point exactly! When I read about "Sun in Leo" or "Mercury in Leo", they describe to the T! Question--where did you see my chart? Did I post it?

The outside world would never know this, however, because it's only at home that this shows. Where is your Uranus?

@inthemisosoup: I would render your Mercury Unaspected. The "wavering" nature of your Mercury definitely attests to this. Unaspected planets tend to do this: express themselves extremely strongly and with conviction, then suddenly become insecure and very quiet. It's important to note, however, that it's during these "insecure" phases that the native actually unknowingly exhibit's the planets traits even stronger; it's only the native that doesn't take notice of it. So don't sweat those periods!

I have an unaspected Mercury. I think I do, anyway. It only makes aspects between 7-10 degrees, which they list on my chart but I feel may be too wide to count. Mercurian themes are very present in my life: I love writing, talking, communicating. I'm trilingual, studying to be a translator (my dream). At the same time, I do find it a struggle to communicate effectively every so often. Sometimes it is the easiest thing in the world, sometimes I feel like I'm in another world and just can't find the words to describe what I am thinking.

My Mercury is in Scorpio, the 9th house, and it trines my moon by 7 degrees, conjuncts the MC by 8 degrees, and squares my ascendant by 9 degrees. Are these orbs too wide? Is my Mercury unaspected?
