What Is A Stellium In A Natal Chart

Not simply where the sun rises and sets, but also the positions of all the planets in the sky at the time of your birth, may be determined by mapping your natal chart.

Stelliums are when three or more planets are concentrated in a single zodiac sign or house of someone’s chart, according to the twins. In the summer of 2020, for instance, “kids will have a stellium in Capricorn, since Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto are all in Capricorn,” they continue. Having Mars, Mercury, and Saturn all in the fifth house is another illustration (which relates to romance, love, and creativity).

Additionally, a person’s chart may occasionally contain more than one stellium (i.e., three planets in Sag and three in the eighth house).

Is a stellium a good thing?

A stellium makes some aspects, traits, and themes in your life stand out more than others. In certain ways, it significantly strengthens and perhaps even further defines your personality. In fact, a stellium is so powerful that it has the ability to weaken the influence of your sun signprovided that your sun sign is not included in your stellium, of course. For instance, if your sun is in Libra and your stellium is in Scorpio, you may find that you are much more emotional, introspective, and captivated by all things macabre and taboo than the typical Libra.

A stellium is made up of how many signs?

Three or more planets must be conjoined in the same zodiac sign (or astrological house, if you’re looking at a birth chart) in order for something to be referred to as a stellium. Because there are just two, it is most likely merely a conjunction aspect, which occurs quite frequently.

However, many astrologers assert that the number of planets required to form a stellium increases to four if the planetary grouping contains either the sun or the moon. This is most likely due to the sun and moon moving through the zodiac signs quite swiftly and hence aligning with other planets more frequently than most.

Your birth chart will show that you were born during a planetary stellium, and the energy of the stellium sign is likely to be strongly present in your personality. Stelliums can also happen in a birth chart when planets are grouped tightly together in one astrological house (versus one zodiac sign). The house’s themes would be more affected by the energy in this situation than the zodiac signs involved.

What To Expect From A Stellium

We might anticipate experiencing an increase in the energy of that sign, both individually and socially, because so many planets are converging in that sector of the zodiac with their frequently conflicting personalities. This can occasionally make us feel uneasy since there is such a strong planetary concentration on just one aspect of our existence. On the other side, it can also be a wonderful chance to unite with the stellium’s energy and learn whatever teachings it has to impart.

The planets involved in a stellium can also be used to determine its vibe. Expect to feel the energy in a personal way that can have an impact on your personality, mood, and relationships if there are several personal planets in the sky (such as the sun, moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars). Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, or Pluto are examples of more distant, transpersonal planets that may be involved. If so, the energy of the stellium is likely to be represented in a more collective, overarching way.

For instance, the close proximity of six planets in Aquarius in February 2021 would strongly emphasize the Aquarian traits of innovation, forward-thinking, communal concern, and technological advances. The Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Venus are personal planets, whereas Saturn and Jupiter are slower-moving social planets. As a result, the Aquarius vibe will be strongly felt in our daily lives as well as on a more generalized collective level.

Are stelliums uncommon?

If you’ve ever come across someone with an extremely strong personality who also seems to embody every trait of one sign, they may have been born with a stellium. Although it seems awful, it’s actually incredibly unique and uncommon.

Does ascending matter in Stellium?

Any grouping of three or more planets that appears in a person’s natal chart is known as a stellium. All of these planets plus one will need to be in the same house and sign. It’s possible that these planets are in conjunction, but it’s not usually the case.

Although some astrologers disagree with this definition, it is one of the more frequently recognized theories, and in my experience, I have found sufficient proof to support the idea that the interaction of three or more planets produces stellium energy.

You can see from the aforementioned example that this person has a 3-planet stellium in Pisces in the 9th house (Chiron, Mercury, and Neptune) and a 4-planet stellium in Pisces in the 10th house (Mars, Moon, Sun, and Venus). Uranus is also in the 10th house, but as it is in the sign of Aries, it is not a member of the stellium despite being there. Because it is not a planet or luminary, the Midheaven is not a part of this stellium.

The Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Chiron are the ONLY planets that make up a stellium. Because they are not actual physical bodies, things like the North Node, South Node, Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven, etc. are not included in stelliums.

Stelliums signify a seat of authority for the native and also indicate a lifetime of intense attention on that house’s territory. Whatever sign the stellium is in will also indicate motivations and themes within the main lesson of the house, as well as a significant portion of that person’s personality.

In a chart, the absence of stelliums has no adverse or undesirable implications. It’s okay that many people lack these. It simply means that there won’t be any major areas of concentration or preoccupation throughout the lifespan, and that life themes will be more evenly distributed.

Stelliums can also be used to study popular culture or large-scale occurrences. If a stellium appears in the chart during a historical or current event, it indicates that the energy of that house and sign is present in the event. In a different piece, we shall delve deeper into that.

You must consider the house it is in and what it stands for in order to comprehend how the stellium’s energy will manifest. Houses frequently reveal to us the outside events that occur in our lives, while the planetary signs in this house reveal to us how we respond to these events. The 9th and 10th house stelliums of Pisces, for instance, imply an emphasis on expansive thought, philosophy, and travel (9th house), and economics and stability (10th house), which is handled in a delicate, dreamlike, almost unconscious manner (Pisces). The native will naturally spend a lot of mental energy speculating about potential outcomes, and they might even connect this to their career. The 10th house stellium shows a propensity for leadership, but as Pisces is the sign of “martyrdom,” the native may take up leadership duties in order to relieve others of stress.

Make sure to note which planets are included in the stellium as well. Pluto and other particular planets may be signs of an obsessive character to the stellium’s energy. Neptune might stand in for an unconscious aspect, making the native less sensitive to the stellium’s vitality. Uranus will add a special twist to the stellium’s essence (i.e. Uranus in a 2nd house stellium will encourage the native to earn money through a unique career). Saturn will discuss the topic that the house represents lesson after lesson.

What does having four planets in one house mean?

Hindu astrology refers to Sanyasa yogas as planetary configurations or circumstances that indicate Sanyasa in particular nativities (horoscopes). Pravrajya yogas are another name for Sanyasa yogas. They are fortunate yogas.

When four or more powerful planets align in a single house or sign, sanyasa yoga is formed. The nature or style of sanyasa that is used depends on the planet that is most powerful in that particular group of planets. If the Sun is the strongest planet in the chart, the person is of high morals and intellectual prowess, and will choose austere and spartan practices in remote locations. If the Moon is the strongest planet, the practice is in seclusion and focuses more on the study of scriptures. If Mercury is the strongest planet, one is easily swayed by other people’s philosophy. If Mars is the strongest planet, one wears red-colored clothing and struggles to control his temper. If Jupiter is the The greater Sanyasa signal is the involvement of the lord of the tenth house in this conjunction of four or more planets. The individual achieves Moksha if those four or more planets coincidentally conjoin in a kendra or a trikona, but if they conjoin in the eighth house, there will be Yogabhrashta, or a break in yoga-operation, and they will fall from the ultimate state of liberation. There won’t be any sanyasa if the planet with the strongest conjunction is destroyed by a planetary conflict, and if it survives, one returns to their previous way of life. When the Moon is in a drekkena of Saturn, is aspected by both Mars and Saturn, or is in a navamsa of Saturn, aspected by Mars, sanyasa is also indicated. A person enters sanyasa if Saturn aspects the Moon’s dispositor without any other planets, if all planets are aspecting one house or sign, or if Jupiter is in the ninth house and Saturn aspects the lagna (Ascendant), the Moon, and Jupiter. In addition, if Saturn is not aspected by any planets and is in the ninth house, a person who was born a king will enter sanyasa.

Is the sun included in stellium?

Personal planets like the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, and Venus make up an impressive stellium. You may have an affinity for the goal of your generation or the current political climate if your personal planets are grouped with the slowly rotating outer planets.

What sign do I belong to?

A stellium in your birth chart denotes the presence of three or more planets in the same sign. Remember that in astrology, the sun and moon are regarded as planets. A Pisces Stellium would result from having your Mars, Venus, and moon in the sign of Pisces.
