Squares energy?

Question

Is square's energy, caused by the tension, more stronger than any conjuntion or other type of aspect? I've noticed that many famous people have perfect charts or charts full of squares and not easy aspects, so i thought that maybe squares are the most powerful drive of energy we have, what do you think?

Answer 1

Squares are regarded as malefics in nature because they bring us face-to-face with ourself. Sometimes, we do not care for the picture we see as the result, which is one reason why they have gained their malefic reputation.

From another side, it is the the most benefic aspects in our charts and the most looked at by astrologers. Squares indicate a BLOCKADE that must first be overcome in order to achieve and this blockade is internal by nature.

Nevertheless,  the first lesson to learn from squares is that we are our own worse enemy and if one of the planet is retrograde, then the we-are-at-fault attitude becomes less obvious.

You can't ignore squares and if you do, you will eventually face up to the problem. Here is an example....

Ex:   Ascendant square MC. The ascendant is the way you choose to package, market, and sell yourself to the world. A good product, poorly packaged, will not sell very well.

But, do a good marketing and sales job, and the world will beat a path to your home to get the product.

Public acceptance of the product is the key to success and that is reserved to the Midheaven, the 10th . It measures the degree of acceptance that the product sets.

Briefly stated, Squares cause tension in our lives and this tension forces us to act to relieve this tension. You can look at it from another angle. You may look upon your square as the way you get around the corner in your life when you are unable to tell for sure what is coming at you around the corner.

The signs the planet are in are important and indicate the mode in which you approach the problem symbolized by the planet. If a planet is in Aries, there would be greter eagerness to deal and solve the problem than if in Taurus where caution would be taken.

Gemini would signal a more intellectual approach, Cancer a more emotional approach and Leo, a more ritualistic approach.

Hope this explains it a little
