This is the responsibility that we accept as a result of Saturn's lessons. 7 is Saturn's number, so that's why it is assumed these points deal with 'destiny.' Character is destiny you make your character by your choices and you meet destiny with the creative use of your potentials. When operating as a transit they can represent roundabouts or forks in the road where we will choose which way we will define our future. Septiles resonate with Venus, Cardinal, Air and Libran energy. These aspects can indicate extraordinary creative efforts at self-knowledge and ultimate understanding.

Septiles indicate harmony and union, though in a non-conforming way. Much like the numerological interpretation of the number seven, septiles contain spiritual power and imply the possibility of cosmic intervention. The general interpretation of this is that because this division is a somewhat irrational force of energy, there is something sacred and holy going on here. The Septile (7) is the first number of all the aspects that does not divide evenly. After all, why ignore the obvious importance? This function in eastern astrology adds weight to the case for using this particular aspect more. The novile is, interestingly, given much greater importance in Indian or Vedic Astrology in the case of a Navamsa Chart where each 40 degree section of the original chart is stretched over a 360 degree circle. The nine divides the zodiac wheel of an astrological chart by 40 degrees. The number nine however, is rarely, if at all, used. The number seven divides the chart into segments of approx 51 degrees, and is called a Septile, but is used very little. So, bearing in mind all this active discrimination, what of these other numbers, the seven and the nine? However, the rarely used aspects, the novile and septile, are often listed in astrological programs at a default 0 degree orb and as such will only appear in a chart when an aspect to a planet, angle, etc is exact. The less important aspects, the sextile, sesquiquadrate, and inconjunct, are allowed 2 degrees of orb. These are considered major aspects, with the sextile, semi-square and quintile all considered minor aspects in descending order.Īlso, when dealing with the major aspects (conjunction, trine, square, and opposition), some astrologers will allow up to 10 degrees for aspects involving Sun, Moon, or Ascendant, but only 6-8 degrees for the other planetary aspects. But main stream astrology focuses only on the numbers one (conjunction), two (opposition), three (trine), four (square), five (quintile), six (sextile), and finally, eight (semi-square). Looking at astrology from a numerology perspective you would automatically take into consideration all divisions of the Natal chart by numbers one through nine. But what of those aspects that aren't given as much importance. We all know the major and minor aspects of astrology, and the levels of importance placed on them.
