ANGLES OVERVIEW

When six lines, similar to the long strokes of a knife made to divide a pie into slices, are drawn to segment the Zodiac wheel into twelve individual Houses, a cross forms in the center of that wheel. These six lines are the Angles of the Zodiac; they traverse the full diameter of the wheel and separate the twelve Houses from each other. The Angles pinpoint the major events in an Astrological chart. If a planet appears on an Angle in your birth chart, its major influences are emphasized throughout your lifetime. In general, when a planet sits on an Angle in your horoscope, special meaning is derived not only from its position but also from the planet in question, the Angle, the particular House and the Sign in which it rests.
