Aspects to Stars

The Planet-Star Aspects window is opened by selecting the "Tables" main menu item or clicking the "Tables" Toolbar button, and then selecting the "Aspects List", and then the "Aspects to Stars" menu option.

The window displays a list of named stars aspected with each planet and house cusp, selected for aspecting in "Chart Settings, Planets" and "Chart Settings, Houses". For example:

            Algieba          Trine         2.61     29°47'34"Leo  (0° 5'30")

For each planet (and/or Pars, and/or House) the following data is given:
- common name of the star
- aspects name
- apparent visual magnitude (brightness)
- zodiacal longitude
- orb of aspect.
Only stars with a common name are included.

Orbs for planet-star aspects are always calculated as the lesser of the orb of the planet and the star, regardless of the "Orb Calculation" setting on the Chart Settings - Aspects tab. Normally, then, star orbs defined in the orb tables will take precedence over planets' orbs specification.
