A stellium is a collection of three or more planets that are conjunct in the same sign. Three or more planets conjunct in Aquarius form an Aquarius stellium. Aquarius is the zodiac’s masculine (outgoing), Fixed (immovable), Air (mental) sign. It symbolizes independent and unconventional thinking, as well as the application of intellect, mind, and artistic abilities to engage with the outside world.

What does stellium Aquarius mean?
Do you have a strange feeling about things right now? You might blame the current stellium in Aquarius for your troubles.
You might be wondering what a stellium is. A stellium occurs when three or more celestial bodies occupy the same place in the sky beneath one sign in astrology. This energy is motivating us to accept ourselves in new ways because Venus, Mars, and Saturn are all in Aquarius right now. This stellium started on March 6, when Venus and Mars entered Aquarius, and will end on April 5, when Venus left Aquarius and enters Pisces. Vesta, an asteroid, is currently in Aquarius, bringing us even more Aquarius energy. Indeed, this is the most planetary activity we’ll witness all year in Aquarius!
What is the stellium of my zodiac sign?
When you map your natal chart, you can see the positions of all the planets in the sky at the time of your birth, not simply where the sun rises and sets.
“A stellium occurs when three or more planets are concentrated in a single zodiac sign or house in someone’s chart,” the twins explain. “Babies born in the summer of 2020 will have a stellium in Capricorn, because Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto are all in Capricorn,” they explain. Having Mars, Mercury, and Saturn all in the fifth house is another example (which relates to romance, love, and creativity).
In some cases, people’s charts may have more than one stellium (i.e., three planets in Sag and three in the eighth house).
Are Stelliums uncommon?
If you’ve ever encountered someone with a powerful personality who appears to have all of the qualities of one sign, they may have been born with a stellium. It may seem terrible, but it is truly unique and quite unusual.
What does having a lot of Aquarius in my horoscope mean?
Simply put, having planets in Aquarius can signify obstinacy and a drive to defy convention. When looking at your horoscope, look for an Aquarian rising sign, moon sign, Mercury, Venus, or Mars sign in particular.
Are there three or four planets in a stellium?
A stellium, also known as a satellitium in older types of astrology, is simply a grouping of three (or four, if the moon or sun are included) or more planets in a single sign or house.
Does stellium count if it’s rising?
A stellium is a grouping of three or more planets that appears in a person’s birth chart. These three planets, plus one, must all be in the same house and sign. These planets may or may not be in conjunction, however this is not usually the case.
Some astrologers disagree with this description, but it is one of the more frequently accepted ideas, and I have found enough evidence in my experience to support the theory that stellium energy is created by three or more planets.
In the example above, you can see that this person has a three-planet stellium in Pisces’ 9th house (Chiron, Mercury, and Neptune) and a four-planet stellium in Pisces’ 10th house (Mars, Moon, Sun, and Venus). Uranus, despite being in the 10th house, is not a member of the stellium because it is in the sign of Aries. Because it is neither a planet nor a luminary, the Midheaven is not included in this stellium.
The Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Chiron are the only luminaries/planets that make up a stellium. Stelliums do not contain things like the North Node, South Node, Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven, and so on because they are not physical bodies.
Stelliums reflect the native’s seat of power, as well as a concentrated attention on that house’s location over the native’s lifespan. Whatever sign the stellium is in will be an important component of that person’s personality, representing reasons and themes within the house’s greater lesson.
The absence of stelliums in a chart does not indicate anything undesirable or harmful. It’s fine if many people don’t have them. It simply indicates that there will be greater balance in life themes, rather than a single focus or preoccupation throughout one’s existence.
Stelliums are frequently employed in the study of cultural or mass events. When a stellium appears in the chart during a historical or present event, it indicates that the event is imbued with the energy of that house and sign. We’ll go over that in greater detail in a later piece.
You must look at the house the stellium is in and what that house represents in order to understand how the stellium’s energy will manifest. Houses frequently depict external events in our life, while the sign of the planets in this house depicts how we respond to these events. The 9th and 10th house stelliums of Pisces, for example, imply an emphasis on broad thought, philosophy, and travel (9th house) and economics and stability (10th house), which are handled in a sensitive, dreamy, almost unconscious manner in the sample chart above (Pisces). It will be natural for the native to devote a significant amount of mental energy to speculating on possibilities, and they may even make a career out of it. The stellium of the 10th house shows a propensity for leadership, but as Pisces is the sign of “martyrdom,” the native may take on leadership duties in order to aid others to the point of stress.
Also, keep an eye on which planets are present in the stellium. The presence of some planets, such as Pluto, could imply that the stellium’s energy has a compulsive nature. Neptune could indicate an unconscious aspect, implying that the native is unaware of the stellium’s energy. Uranus will give the stellium’s essence a new twist (i.e. Uranus in a 2nd house stellium will encourage the native to earn money through a unique career). Saturn will teach you lesson after lesson about the theme of the house.
Is the sun considered a stellium?
Personal planets such as the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, and Venus are included in a stellium with a wow factor. If your personal planets are clustered with the slow-moving outer planets, you have a strong connection to your generation’s mission or the current climate.
