An opposition occurs when two planets are 180 degrees apart, creating tension that seeks balance between opposing forces.
Oppositions represent polarities that require integration. When planets oppose each other, you may feel pulled between two different needs or approaches. This tension creates awareness—you can see both sides of an issue. Oppositions often manifest in relationships, where another person embodies qualities you need to integrate. The key to working with oppositions is finding balance rather than choosing one extreme.
TriAstra identifies oppositions and tracks how they correlate with clash relationships in Saju element theory and planetary antagonisms in Vedic astrology.
Oppositions in your chart highlight areas where balance is needed. Rather than viewing them as problems, see them as opportunities for wholeness through integration of complementary energies.
