Chart patterns

Chart patterns are recurring geometries built from aspects between several planets.

• Stellium — three or more bodies in one sign or houses sector; concentrates themes
• Grand trine — three mutual trines (often one elements); talent circuit, possible autopilot
• T-square — two planets in opposition both square a third; dynamic tension focal planet
• Grand cross — four mutual squares/oppositions; high friction, strong drive to integrate
• Yod (Finger of God) — two quincunxes to a third planet, often with a sextile base; fated-adjustment narratives in some schools

Patterns show up quickly on a natal-wheel when aspect lines are drawn. Confirm with the aspect matrix and orbs.
