Golden aspects, talent acquired through observation and interiorization of culture

The golden aspects represent talents acquired through observation and cultural assimilation, as learning math, computer programming, Tai-Chi , athletics, read a score and play a musical instrument ...

Like the trine and sextile aspects, the golden aspects are also blue aspects, so that they improve progressively with practice and are extremely resistant to modification out of the cultural model from which has been internalized. In addition, the attainment of perfection requires many years of dedication.

Theodor Landcheid discovered the golden aspects in the year 1991, when he reanalized
the peaks and valleys of the statistical results of the investigation that the psychologist Michel Gauquelin carried out in 1955, in which there was found a correlation between the positions of the planets in the House Horoscope and certain professional groups such as scientists, military, athletes, artists or politicians.

The peaks of the distribution were in golden aspect with the cusp of the 10th house and in lesser proportion also with the cusp of the 4th house, merely because the criterion that was used to select the sample was 'cultural talent' (typified from biographical encyclopedias), a criterion based on the quality of the aspect 'conjunction' (for example, enterprising) would have generated peaks exactly in the cusps of the 10th and 4th houses.

The main group of golden aspects is based on the 'minor division' of the golden section of the red aspects (conjunction, opposition and square), they represent the cultural quality that results from the combination of the two planets in aspect, for example Mars and the cusp of the 10th house in the case of athletes; while the secondary group is based in the 'major division', they represents the cultural quality that results from the mutual cancellation of the two planets in aspect, for example Saturn and the cusp of the 10th house in the case of abstract type artists.


Golden aspects (minor division):


  • Minor division of 360º = 137º30'
  • Minor division of 180º = 68º45'
  • Minor division of 90º = 34º23'


Golden aspects (major division):

  • Major division of 360 = 42º30'
  • Major division of 180º = 111º15'
  • Major division of 90º = 55º37'
