That depends on what you mean by "weak" vs. "strong"Generally, in the natal chart, two criteria are used to consider an aspect as strong: -to be a major aspect - to be a tight aspect However, in my experience, wider major aspects could be much stronger in a natal chart than some tight ones, depending on the geometry. For example, a wide opposition could be much more definitory for a chart than some other tight aspect. Regarding those aspects considered "minor", I think there isn't sufficient research on them. For example, I know how strongly my 5 deg Venus/Jupiter opp plays out in my chart, but I can't tell if it surpasses the influence of my exact Venus/Pluto semisextile/parallel. When it comes to synastry, my opinion is "weak" should be an aspect that doesn't do much to connect those two people, while "strong" would be a very connective aspect between them. In this respect, I consider as weak synastric aspects those aspects - major and minor - that do not satisfy the natal geometric completion needs. For example, let's consider someone has a Sun/Moon/Saturn GT in their chart, houses 2nd/6th/10th and the person has the DSC in Pisces. Someone bringing a square to their Sun or Moon doesn't do much for them, it may be felt, but not in a connective way. But, if someone brings a planet in their 12th house, even with a wider orb, making a Kite with their GT, so creating sextile/opp aspects, that person would have the strongest impact on them, and probably stronger than the same planet falling in houses 8th or 4th. Let's say now someone has a chart based on semisextiles - an incomplete 12th star - the strongest synastric aspect would be with someone completing the star, hence bringing some semisextile aspect. ------------------ I seem to have loved you in numberless forms...

I had to reread what you wrote 3 times Leeloo to grasp what you wrote and i think i understand now. You and the other interpersonal astrology moderators need to get together and write a astrological synastry book with moderator iQ ------------------

Thank you for your kind words, Ruden. I would be honored to co-write a book with many of the moderators and users here. About IQ...there's a saying by one of the world's greatest artists, Constantin Brancusi "In the shadow of great trees, only the grass grows" ------------------
