A parallel aspect is formed between two planets with the same declination or distance north or south of the ecliptic. If the planets are both North or both South of the ecliptic, the parallel aspect is read as a conjunction. If they are the same declination but one is North and one is South, then the contra-parallel is read as a 180 degree opposition. On Nov 24 (Thu) Mercury and Venus will be parallel of declination at -25 degrees south (circled in red). This usually entails a change in trend (+/- 1 CD). |
