Cazimi is when a planet is within 17 arcminutes of the Sun's center, considered supremely dignified and empowered.
Cazimi is an Arabic term meaning 'in the heart' of the Sun. When a planet is within 0°17' of the Sun's exact position, it is considered to be sitting on the Sun's throne rather than burned by it. This is the opposite of combustion—instead of being weakened, the planet gains extraordinary power and clarity. Cazimi moments are brief (usually lasting only hours) but astrologically potent, like an audience with a king.
TriAstra awards a +5 score bonus when a natal planet is cazimi, recognizing it as a Jackpot indicator of exceptional strength in that planet's domain.
