Sesquisquare
AspectA sesquisquare (also called a sesquiquadrate) forms when two planets are approximately 135° apart, literally 'a square and a half.' If a square is a full-body rash you cannot ignore, and a semisquare is a tiny mosquito bite, the sesquisquare is an itchy tag on the back of your shirt: not an emergency, but persistently annoying, and if you do not deal with it, you will be irritable all day. This aspect creates a more agitated version of square-family friction, a restless, building tension that demands resolution. It often manifests through external events that shake you out of complacency and force you to finally address what you have been avoiding.
