I feel it very much, actually.

In my case I have Mars conjunct Neptune (almost five degrees) and also Mars parallel Neptune (of course under one degree).

~ My TF has natal Mars conj Venus (2 deg). In declination he has Mars parallel Venus (less than 1 deg). And I know he feels his Mars/Venus conjunction quite strongly, as romance, passion, and beauty are v. imp for him. He also has an abundance of charisma and charm and, I feel, blends his masculine and feminine sides quite effortlessly. Another thing I noticed is that he can assert himself when needed and also cooperate when necessary, again seemingly without effort.

~ My best friend (woman) has natal Venus trine Jupiter (3 deg) and also Venus parallel Jupiter (less than 1 deg).
~ She also has Venus trine True Node (exact). Her Venus is parallel True Node (less than 1 deg).
~ I know her love energy is strong (devoted) and tinged with Jupiter qualities. Growing up she has not felt material lack, and, because Venus is conjunct her Mid Heaven, she shines in a highly specialized field. It feels like she has an additional dose of help from unseen forces as she has always managed to meet/work for the right people (top ones in the world ...NN is in Leo). Like my TF, she too has a very charismatic presence.

My sense is that the strength of conjunctions is somehow reinforced by also having parallel aspects. Hope this helps

Because Man knows that each charitable act is an opportunity for him to revel in God just as God avails of His chance to revel in Man through every act of charity.
For them both to continue to rejoice in each other, Man knows he cannot allow worldly accolades to distract him. So he continues to act in kindness ... secretly.

Composite Venus and Mercury are conjunct (2 deg) both straddling the IC by 1 deg each, with composite Sun at a wider conjunction of 8 deg. Venus/IC/Mercury/Sun are all parallel (less than 1 deg). There's a feeling of adoration and appreciation of each others' personalities and ideas. Whenever we drive each other up the wall Venus always comes to the rescue, smoothing things over. The attraction is intense, almost compulsive. And the love is simply present ... always.

The stellium receives an opposition from composite Saturn (0 deg to the Sun). In declination, Saturn is contraparallel (less than 1 deg) to the stellium. The flow of love is strongest and smoothest when ego energies are kept in check, otherwise this is where we can drive each other up the wall. It's good to have Venus always at standby in the stellium.

Probably the reason I feel* the quincunx so much (especially via transits) despite being a tight aspect. It does have strong opposition colouring and considering I don't have natal oppositions (there is a 7 degree orb between Ven/Nep,but that simply doesn't work) this is the closest to opposition I've felt.

I also have Jupiter conjunct Saturn and Jupiter Parallel Saturn (by declination). Both aspects are very, very tight in orb - we're talking, one degree, or less than one.

I went Googling Chiron conjunct the sun to get a sense of what the aspect supposedly means and it does appear to fit my life experiences. As long as I can remember I've felt like there's some very, very specific purpose why I'm here (on the planet at this time). Exactly what that purpose is, I haven't figured out yet - it's just a constant nagging feeling that I have some definite goal I was put here to 'do'.

I'm reading about the Jupiter-Saturn one now and I can't really make heads or tails of it...I suspect that the problem is age and life experience at this point. In about ten years I could probably give you an answer to that one lol.

*which doesn't mean I could breakdown the quincunx aspect; still processing.

This exactly what I mean.
In my observation the aspects seem to be stronger if there is a parallel/ contraparallel between the aspecting planets at the same time.

(of course aspects can also be strong without the parallel/ contraparallel; but I just mean to say that the declinational aspect seems to strengthen the longitudinal aspect).

The existence of a declinational aspect also seems to strengthen aspects in wider orb.

Often loose conjunctions will be parallel for example, and I am pretty sure that is one reason why wide orbs sometimes are applicable. ONE reason, not the only one.

I am just rereading the book on declinations by Newman, and it is really a good read.

I also had a reading done once in which was being mentioned that my Moon is paralle SPICA, which was consiered as a small positive link. I had never seen it done before, but of course fixed stars also have declinations. lol

I definitely feel that. I'm also hard on myself and can be incredibly sarcastic.

I also have Sun conjunct Neptune (5 degree orb) and Sun parallel Neptune. Kind of a contrast to the Saturn aspects, but I relate to this just as much. Very spiritual/intuitive, artistic, and I'm all about meaning and attaching meaning to things. My mom is always telling me to stop daydreaming, but I can't help it. I love to escape from the world sometimes. Perhaps because of all the Saturn in my chart, I'm not as outwardly sensitive, but I care deeply about others and I'm compassionate. I also love, love music.

Sun opposite Ascendant (2 degree orb) and Sun contra-parallel Ascendant. Really haven't looked into this aspect much. I'm not really a people person, but I admit, I do try to keep the peace at all costs.

And I have 3 more aspects that correspond to the parallel/contra-parallel thing, but I'll leave it at that.

But it is valid on its own as well.

these are my conclusions during the last years (my perception might have shifted a little).

Not really sure what to make of all that... BML and Ceres seem like sort of a weird combo, but I guess I'll have to read more about Ceres as well.

I would have more if I looked at 2* orbs, but for now I'll focus on 1*.
