I will summarize what I learned so far. Anyone, please add to this( or correct me)You have to look at the sextile. What does that entail--planet and house?
You look at each quincunx. What is the problem that the quincunx is expressing?
You have to look at the planets in each quincunx and the houses.
Then, you go to the planet at the point of the triangle. This planet must do the accomodating. It is all about this planet. It will do it's thing, in the house in which it resides. It will do it's thing based on the nature of the planet. Everything points to the planet at the point of the Yod. It will be forced to really re-invent itself to learn the lessons of each of the quincunxes.
Additionally, the point opposite the non-sextiling planet is the YOD's release point. Any planet positioned on or transiting that point acts as a release for the energy.
So for example:
Sun 13 Virgo 1H
Moon 13 Aquarius 8H
Saturn 13 Aries 6H
Release point: Uranus 13 Pisces 7H
The above YOD contains all the following aspects -
Sun quincunx Moon
Sun quincunx Saturn
Sun opposed Uranus
Moon sextile Saturn
Moon semi-sextile Uranus
Saturn semi-sectile Uranus
Definition of this YOD:
This native may experience a great struggle between being capable of exploring/expressing their self as an independent individual (Sun 1H) and needing to connect with or rely on others, in a deep and meaningful way (Moon 8H). They may even feel self compromise is a law of relationships and perceive emotional connection as more of a job than an act of symbiotic nourishment (Saturn 6H). If the relationship between Moon and Saturn is strong, the native could gravitate toward caution and doing what needs to be done, at the expense of their own fulfillment. They may even feel guilty for indulging their self when their Sun seeks expression.
If the Sun is emphasized, the native could feel overwhelmed with the responsibility of interacting with others in a deep and meaningful way. They may do their best to avoid getting caught up in other people's needs. Even when they are allowing their Sun the spotlight however, compromises are being made. They either trade in independence for personal interaction or connectedness for individuality.
Release point:
This release point brings the element of reflection and enlightenment in as a tension reliever. The Native is challenged to elevate their awareness out of the box of protocol and compromise and face the understanding that others are reflections manifested to teach us about our self (Uranus 7H). By cultivating compassion, unconditional love, vulnerability, and a desire to explore others they nullify their original struggle. The problem of "Me or Them" ceases to exist and is replaced with "I AM them, they are me. When I feed them they feed me, when they feed me, I feed them".
The key to unlocking the release point is through its relationship with each YOD planet -
Sun opposed Uranus - The native is challenged to see with honesty what needs to change about one's self and realize which ideals are productive or destructive. They are also challenged to look to each person as an "unlocker of hints", a clue to the refinement and exploration of self. They learn to see others (and their environment) as a reflective force guiding the native to tear down old patterns and clear the path for something much more than expected.
Moon semi-sextile Uranus - At first glance the relationship is harsh, One's emotions must learn to acclimate to transparency. This is like living in a glass house, the native must learn to expose their self. Once the lesson is learned, the native stops feeling exposed and learns to appreciate the beauty outside the walls of their own personal space. Only through exposure can this native connect individuality with emotional interpersonal connection, "This is me, take it or leave it".
Saturn semi-sextile Uranus - In the beginning these two do not seem compatible, but given time these neighbors can synthesize a great lesson. The native is faced with the problem of their own view, the belief that the task of being an individual is an exclusive business. The native must understand that life is not a solitary experience. They must learn that more is discovered about one's self from the spontaneity of inclusiveness, than when we manage our interactions to the microscopic degree. The truth of a person is not who they are when facing comfort, but who they are when facing the unknown. Saturn must step back and learn that the unknown is a self-building exercise and paves the true path to his goal.
Together, these aspects teach the native to see their unhealthy perceptions, accept their personal vulnerability as part of their individuality, and accept others as part of their self exploration journey. The compromises of self become compromises of old useless views. The tedious work of keeping everyone happy at the expense of one's self, becomes hard work invested toward the growth and maintenance of healthy, uplifting relationships.

. I didn't know about it. It's interesting that it's called a boomerang, certainly then, in such a configuration the apex planet doesn't become the sole and only focus.
