Planetary Aspects
When we look at astrology and our natal chart, the planetary aspects help us study ourselves, our innate dispositions, and such as with squares, the karma or debt we have with ourselves, where we possibly hated ourselves or lowered our own self-esteem and put ourselves down in past lives by lacking authentic love towards ourselves, with our own God-spark or Spirit. Remember that astrology is a metaphysical science, a science of the evolution of the soul, and the energy we conceive at birth is a powerful karmic pattern that lets us know what our current state of debt concerns this hate and anger towards ourselves and others.
These planetary aspects are like a karmic map, and we can understand them by studying them more in-depth, such as squares and oppositions, trines and sextiles, or conjunctions. Squares and oppositions can reveal karma or debt for this life cycle. Trine and sextiles reveal dharma (good karma) from a past life, and conjunctions could go either way or both. Each sign has 30 degrees of identification, and each degree has its own minute. The more squares you have in your natal chart, the more insecure to yourself, lost or lonely, and the more frightened you feel. Because of these squares in your chart, you feel you need things outside yourself, like power, money, glory, and middle or upper-class ethics that make you happy emotionally and mentally.

Hate & Anger
Squares typically represent anger we carry from unlearned lessons towards self, obsessions, addictions, and self-destructive behaviors. They show up as insecurities, vulnerabilities, a part of us that takes things personally, both emotionally and mentally, and the part of us that over-criticizes to find reasons to put ourselves down. Squares in our astrological birth chart will help us delineate where we hate ourselves and are angry with ourselves. And oppositions, on the other hand, reveal karma where we hate or are angry with other people. If we have yet to learn life lessons for Universal karmic justice, they will show up as squares and oppositions in your natal chart. We will need to pay off the debt by identifying our hate and anger toward ourselves with squares or with other people through oppositions.
Whatever shows up in your astrological birth chart shouldn’t make you feel worse than any other person. Everyone in the world deals with hate and anger, and no one is spiritually perfect. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be here adjusting and balancing the karmic scales. So, when we judge ourselves or others, creating more hate and anger, we manifest more negative vibrations and more karma. We create situations that can be very negative for our current or future state. This is why therapy can be great for everyone and why it’s essential to seek help when struggling with negative emotions like hate and anger. Remember, the truly spiritual person or happy person that has control over their karmic growth is a person that knows how to process their emotions and surrender this hate and anger.
Transits & Saturn
Even if you’re not born with too many squares or oppositions in your natal chart, there is still Saturn. Saturn rules karma, and everyone goes through continuous transits of squares and oppositions. So whenever you’re going through a transiting square or opposition in your chart, you are given the opportunity to hate yourself or others or to create anger toward yourself and others. That’s why some people have such a hard time when they have a long transit that features squares and oppositions. Everyone has karma to a certain degree in life, where we face anger, love-hate, or extremism. The best we can do is love ourselves and the world without reservation and understand the history of this planet, and the Universe, as a reflection of ourselves.
