Say for example: A Venus conjunct Pluto in natal.

One person having it within a degree, versus another one having it within 4-5 degrees and another having it within 7-8 degrees. They may all still be considered conjunct (depending on personal limits, of course) but how are they each felt - how is the aspect felt, the tighter it gets?

How is it felt in synastry as well?

Two couples having one same aspect, one couple whose aspect is tighter than the other, what would be the difference in which each couple feel the aspect?

I can't imagine it "stronger" or "better"

Well, according to traditional astrology, whatever the relationship between the house sign and planets in those houses get translated through the aspect as well. It doesn't matter the degrees, there's still strength between the planets in the houses that recognize each other. Granted, this has to do with the traditional 7 planets (Sun/Moon/Mercury/Venus/Mars/Jupiter/Saturn)

An example:
0º Aquarius Jupiter and 29º Libra Mercury, equates to Jupiter trine Mercury, even though by degrees it's technically Jupiter square Mercury.

There is theory. And then there is application.

Theoretically that is correct.But practically,the two planets in question enjoy a square. I can bear witness to that.

I have come to notice that any time that a planet is in the same sign as my 4 cardinal point(Aries, Libra, Capricorn and Cancer)it is a time for "preparation" OR envisioning. As something IS coming.

So say the Moon in Aries widely conjuncts my 1st house by 10 degrees(applying).The energy is still very much gaining momentum for when the two positions "meet".

When they do "meet",a feeling of clarity happens.Almost like a new beginning starts to happen.As if a new perspective is gained.

Once they "separate"- that is the Moon now going past the 1st house degree,ACTION to ratify the feeling of a "new beginning" happens.

There is a great deal of urgency to "DO IT NOW" before time runs out etc.

Marriages,Divorces,separations,moving in, moving out etc. all happen when planets are "separating" than applying.

That is why people who have close to EXACT squares,conjunct,opposition,trine or sextile aspects tend to want results NOW. They have the urgency of a child because they fear the "inspiration" or enthusiasm will wilt away.

Many are vivacious,energizing and restless. But also can be irritating,difficult to tie down and abrupt.

So think of it like this

Wide orb than is applying(PLANNING/ENVISIO NING phase)

"I will think of something" OR "It would be nice to dance" etc.

close to exact orb that is applying (INSPIRED/ENERGIZED)

"I have an idea" OR "I am taking up dancing" etc.

close to wide orb that is separating(ACTION)

"this idea is working" or "dancing is so demanding" etc.

Great post, Aries!

I noticed that too

So, in the natal, would the "stage" in which the aspect is in (applying, exact, separating) be fixed?

Well, bot natal & synastry.

Yes.

The exact aspect really contributes to someone being a "maverick" personality. They simply "feel" inspired, pioneering and come up with ideas NOW.There is a strong sense of "urgency".

eg. Moon in Cap 18Deg15 conjunct Mars in 18Deg45.

The ones with the wide aspect(applying) give forethought and invest a lot of time in planning, imagining etc. They can be very powerful visionaries.

eg Moon in Cap 18Deg15 conjunct Mars Cap 23Deg12

Those with the aspect separating(close and wide)tend to be more attuned to practical application.They want to "do"

eg Moon in Cap 18Deg15 conjunct Mars Cap 15Deg01
