Conjunction

A conjunction occurs when two planets occupy roughly the same degree of the zodiac. Their energies blend together like two paint colors poured into the same bucket, you get a new, combined color that cannot be separated. Venus conjunct Jupiter might feel warm and generous; Mars conjunct Saturn might feel like driving with the parking brake on. Conjunctions are the most potent aspect, and whether they feel harmonious or tense depends entirely on which planets are merging. They often represent new beginnings and concentrated focus in the area of life they touch.
