Multiple-Planet Aspects
Multiple-Planet Aspect
Multiple Planet Aspect is a concept of Magi Astrology, and refers to an alignment of three or more planets that create a meaningful influence in any given chart. Magi Quads and Midpoint Crossings are examples of Multiple-Planet Aspects (MP-Aspects.)
See MagiSoft Charts Below
A Magi Quad is formed whenever at least 4 planets are aligned in a symmetrical pattern that results in 2 of the sides being parallel to each other. So whenever there is a MQ, there is also a conjunction of 2 midpoints, and therefore, a conjunction of 2 midpoints occurs only when there is a Magi Quad. Visually, we can see that a MQ is the formation of two pairs of planets forming two parallel lines. Mathematically, these two pairs of planets are separated by an equal number of degrees. MQ's have a powerful influence because 2 midpoints are conjoining each other, and these midpoints are formed by two pairs of different planets (called pairings). Like MQ's, Magi Dek Quads (MDQ's - Declinational Magi Quads) are also formed when two midpoints are parallel to each other, and the two midpoints are formed by four different planets. MQ's and MDQ's are mathematically equivalent. The number of degrees separating one planet of a pairing from a planet of the other pairing will always be the same as the number of degrees separating the remaining two planets that form the Magi Quad. In the longitudes, such planetary positions create a symmetrical quadrangle where two of the sides are parallel. (See Chart below).
"When four planets are aligned together in the form of a Magi Quad, the four planets provide the native with special gifts, talents, and aptitudes that can be predicted through integrating and combining the symbolisms of the four planets." (Excerpt from The Magi Society Ephemeris).
MQ's are the single most important astrological influence for determining what type of capabilities and talents the native has. MQ's also follow the symbolism of Magi Astrology, which means that MQ's are interpreted in the same way as we interpret aspects. While Super Aspects explain and predict the probability of super success, they are somewhat limited in their ability to forecast the exact realm and nature of the success that a person can achieve - so this is where MQ's come into play. And when an Aspected MQ is formed with a conjunction that is a Super Aspect, the entire alignment of the 5 planets involved becomes a Super Aspected MQ. Most super successful people have at least one of their Super Aspects involved in the formation of a Super Aspected Magi Quad.
Pairings: Two planets comprising the MQ's are called Pairings. Composites: 3 planets of aspected MQ's are called Composites. Theory of Midpoint Equivalence: Every midpoint acts as if it were a planet, and all midpoints influence both planets and other midpoints under the same conditions as planets themselves. All midpoints are also influenced by planets and other midpoints under the same conditions as planets themselves. Midpoint Projection: The near and far midpoints exist concurrently: Midpoint project, and are simultaneously at both the far and near locations. For these reasons, we never say a midpoint is opposed (always an enhancement) or sextile to any planet or location, because the other midpoint must be either conjunct or trine.

Magi Quad Orbs
In the Chart below, we see two MQ's formed by Jupiter + Pluto <//> Uranus + Venus and Jupiter + Pluto <//> Saturn + Neptune
We will address the tightest longitudinal MQ: Jupiter + Pluto <//> Uranus + Venus, which is applying within an orb of 1 degree. The tighter the orb, the more powerful the M/Q, and the most powerful M/Q's are those that involve a pairing of Jupiter + Pluto.
The paired planets ("Jupiter + Pluto" and "Uranus + Venus") are linked together with the symbol "+", and together the two planets are referred to as a "pairing". The "<//>" is verbalized as "quadralize", and indicates that the two pairings form a Magi Quad. So one pairing is Jupiter + Pluto, while the other is Venus + Uranus.
The Near Midpoint (-) of Jupiter-Pluto is 00.36 Scorpio, while the Projected Midpoint (/) of Venus/Uranus is 01.36 Scorpio. We have a conjunction of 2 midpoints - therefore we have a Magi Quad. The distance between point A (Jupiter) and point B (Venus) is 73 degrees, while the distance between point D (Pluto) and point C (Uranus) is is 75 degrees, bringing the degree of separation of these pairings within an orb of 2 degrees. So this MQ is written as:
Jupiter + Pluto <//> Uranus + Venus
Also: to differentiate between M/Q's:

Magi Quads
It's important to standardize the way in which M/Q's are written.
- MQ = Longitudinal Magi Quad:
- MDQ = Declinational Magi Quad:
- M/Q can be either a Longitudinal or Declinational Magi Quad
- Jupiter - Pluto: Addresses the Near Midpoint (Hyphen)
- Jupiter/Pluto: Addresses the Projected (far) Midpoint (Slash)

There are 3 Special Types of Magi Quads that are Rare and Powerful
Other Magi Quads with Awesome Power:
Double Aspected Magi Quads: these consist of 2 conjunctions at two corners of a Magi Quad, involving 6 planets. (Super Double Aspected Magi Quad if a Super Aspect is at one of the corners
There are also Triple and Quadruple Magi Quads, with three or four (respectively) conjunctions at different corners of the Magi Quad. There have been none of those present in this Century.
Quadruple and Quintuple Parallel Super Aspected Magi Quads involve seven and eight planets respectively.
Super Aspected or Double Super Aspected Magi Quad (involving two Super Aspects). Whenever an Aspected Magi Quad is formed with a conjunction or parallel that is a Super Aspect, this is called a Super Aspected Magi Quad. A Super Aspected Magi Quad with Jupiter conjunct Pluto at a corner is most powerful. (The conjunction (for Longitudinal) or parallel (for Declinational) Magi Quads must be a Super Aspect, therefore these formations are only valid when there is a conjunction or parallel of a Super Aspect in the Natal Chart). A Jupiter - Pluto Super Aspected Magi Quad is very rare.
Magi Dek Quads are connected by diagonal lines. Magi Quads are connected by parallel lines.
Conjoined Magi Quad if in Longitudes, and Parallel Magi Quads if in Declinations. For M/Q's, the aspect is always either a conjunction or a parallel. Interpret M/Q's in a way similar to the way we would interpret any aspect. The tighter the orb, the greater the power.
A M/Q of Jupiter Uranus can be referred to as a Super Fame Magi Quad. A M/Q of Jupiter Pluto can be referred to as a Super Success Magi Quad.
All midpoints act like planets and can influence planets and other midpoints. All midpoints are influenced by planets and other midpoints under the same rules as the planets themselves.
Triple Aspected Midpoint Crossings:
By the Theory of Midpoint Projection, always use the term Conjunct or Trine - not Opposition or Sextile. All contacts of any multiple of 30 degrees by a midpoint to a planet is positive, but the strongest is the Conjunction (Opposition) and Trine (Sextile). Magi Quads are also relevant to the Heliocentric Chart.
For any given day, we are only interested in the Magi Quads and Midpoint Crossings (MDX's) that actually exist on that day.
Use "Aspect Transformation" to interpret the meanings. For example, in the chart of Michael Jordan, he has the Jupiter-Uranus midpoint trine Mars, square Pluto, and semi-sextile Venus.
Aspect Transformation: This concept refers to the nature of the original planet being "transformed" when a third planet makes an aspect to the aspected planets. In most cases, the transformation is an improvement and an enhancement. the same goes for midpoints.
Super Aspected Midpoint Crossing: A Super Aspect is a component of an Aspected Midpoint Crossing.
Triple Parallel: This is technically the declinational equivalent of a Grand Trine.
The influence of Multiple Planet Aspects depends not only on which actual planets compose the MP-Aspects, but also on the particular alignment and arrangement of the planets that form the aspect.
M/Q's (Magi Quads) and MDX's (Midpoint Crossings) help to determine a person's greatest money-bearing talents. Look for Natal conjunctions (or parallels) that are pairings in MQ's and MPX's.
Finding Aspected M/Q's:
There are two ways to find Aspected Magi Quads:
1. Whenever 3 of the 4 component planets of one M/Q are the same as those of another M/Q, and the two M/Q's share an identical pairing, there is an Aspected Magi Quad. (Remember conjunction or parallel).
2. Another way to find Aspected M/Q's is to simply find conjunctions or parallels, and see if the component planets are part of any M/Q's.
Super Aspected MP (Multiple Planet) Aspects are the most powerful and dominant influences in the Natal Chart.
1. They have a Super Aspect at a corner of an Aspected Magi Quad: therefore they have a Super Aspected Magi Quad.
2. They have a Super Aspect as a component of an Aspected MPX (Midpoint Crossing), which means that they have a Super Aspected Midpoint Crossing.
3. They are athletes who have a Super Sports Champion Aspect at a corner of an Aspected M/Q, or as a component of an Aspected MDX. Such alignments are called Super Sports Champion Aspected M/Q's or MDX's.
Orb Exception for M/Q's (Conjoined MQ's):
Whenever 5 planets are aligned in such a way that a Magi Quad is formed by three of the planets PLUS the midpoint of the remaining two planets, and these two midpoint planets are at most 8 degrees apart, then the five planets actually form a "Conjuncted" Magi Quad. However, the midpoint of the two "conjoined" planets must be located within 1.5 degrees of an exact M/Q, as opposed to the standard orb of up to 2.5 degrees.
Example of Orb Exception: Ronald Reagan's Natal Chart:
See Chart Below:
In Ronald Reagan's Chart we have two connected Magi Dek Quads: Jupiter/Pluto // Saturn/Chiron and Saturn/Chiron // Sun/Neptune. Of this composite, we see that Jupiter is parallel the Sun, while Sun is parallel Venus, and Pluto is parallel Neptune, all quadralizing with the Saturn/Chiron pairing.
This is a powerful Magi Dek Quad, and is referred to as a Triple Parallel Super (Double) Aspected M/Q.
Correctly standardized in writing as:
[Jupiter parallel Sun parallel Venus] + [Pluto parallel Neptune] </D/> Saturn + Chiron.
What does this Magi Dek Quad have to say about Ronald Reagan? Use Magi Symbolisms to synthesize and integrate...
He was a powerfully charming, and highly admired, successful individual, who conducted himself and his career in an ongoing, respectable and disciplined manner.
Why the orb exception for Reagan's Chart? For conjunct/parallel M/Q's - the Pluto parallel Neptune falls within the acceptable M/Q conjunct/parallel orb, being at less than 8 degrees apart, while their respective midpoint is within 1.5 degrees of the M/Q. To be more specific, declinational Neptune is at 21.40 degrees North, while declinational Pluto is at 16.70 degrees North - the parallel aspectual difference being 4.70 degrees apart. The Jupiter-Pluto midpoint is 00.95, while the Saturn-Chiron midpoint is 01.83, resulting in a 00.88 orbital difference, which falls well within the 1.5 degree allowable orb for a M/Q composition of this nature, as opposed to the standard 2.5 degree orb.
Double Aspected Magi Quads: these consist of 2 conjunctions at two corners of a Magi Quad, involving 6 planets. (Super Double Aspected Magi Quad if a Super Aspect is at one of the corners
There are also Triple and Quadruple Magi Quads, with three or four (respectively) conjunctions at different corners of the Magi Quad. There have been none of those present in this Century.
Quadruple and Quintuple Parallel Super Aspected Magi Quads involve seven and eight planets respectively.
Super Aspected or Double Super Aspected Magi Quad (involving two Super Aspects). Whenever an Aspected Magi Quad is formed with a conjunction or parallel that is a Super Aspect, this is called a Super Aspected Magi Quad. A Super Aspected Magi Quad with Jupiter conjunct Pluto at a corner is most powerful. (The conjunction (for Longitudinal) or parallel (for Declinational) Magi Quads must be a Super Aspect, therefore these formations are only valid when there is a conjunction or parallel of a Super Aspect in the Natal Chart). A Jupiter - Pluto Super Aspected Magi Quad is very rare.
Magi Dek Quads are connected by diagonal lines. Magi Quads are connected by parallel lines.
Conjoined Magi Quad if in Longitudes, and Parallel Magi Quads if in Declinations. For M/Q's, the aspect is always either a conjunction or a parallel. Interpret M/Q's in a way similar to the way we would interpret any aspect. The tighter the orb, the greater the power.
A M/Q of Jupiter Uranus can be referred to as a Super Fame Magi Quad. A M/Q of Jupiter Pluto can be referred to as a Super Success Magi Quad.
All midpoints act like planets and can influence planets and other midpoints. All midpoints are influenced by planets and other midpoints under the same rules as the planets themselves.
Triple Aspected Midpoint Crossings:
By the Theory of Midpoint Projection, always use the term Conjunct or Trine - not Opposition or Sextile. All contacts of any multiple of 30 degrees by a midpoint to a planet is positive, but the strongest is the Conjunction (Opposition) and Trine (Sextile). Magi Quads are also relevant to the Heliocentric Chart.
For any given day, we are only interested in the Magi Quads and Midpoint Crossings (MDX's) that actually exist on that day.
Use "Aspect Transformation" to interpret the meanings. For example, in the chart of Michael Jordan, he has the Jupiter-Uranus midpoint trine Mars, square Pluto, and semi-sextile Venus.
Aspect Transformation: This concept refers to the nature of the original planet being "transformed" when a third planet makes an aspect to the aspected planets. In most cases, the transformation is an improvement and an enhancement. the same goes for midpoints.
Super Aspected Midpoint Crossing: A Super Aspect is a component of an Aspected Midpoint Crossing.
Triple Parallel: This is technically the declinational equivalent of a Grand Trine.
The influence of Multiple Planet Aspects depends not only on which actual planets compose the MP-Aspects, but also on the particular alignment and arrangement of the planets that form the aspect.
M/Q's (Magi Quads) and MDX's (Midpoint Crossings) help to determine a person's greatest money-bearing talents. Look for Natal conjunctions (or parallels) that are pairings in MQ's and MPX's.
Finding Aspected M/Q's:
There are two ways to find Aspected Magi Quads:
1. Whenever 3 of the 4 component planets of one M/Q are the same as those of another M/Q, and the two M/Q's share an identical pairing, there is an Aspected Magi Quad. (Remember conjunction or parallel).
2. Another way to find Aspected M/Q's is to simply find conjunctions or parallels, and see if the component planets are part of any M/Q's.
Super Aspected MP (Multiple Planet) Aspects are the most powerful and dominant influences in the Natal Chart.
1. They have a Super Aspect at a corner of an Aspected Magi Quad: therefore they have a Super Aspected Magi Quad.
2. They have a Super Aspect as a component of an Aspected MPX (Midpoint Crossing), which means that they have a Super Aspected Midpoint Crossing.
3. They are athletes who have a Super Sports Champion Aspect at a corner of an Aspected M/Q, or as a component of an Aspected MDX. Such alignments are called Super Sports Champion Aspected M/Q's or MDX's.
Orb Exception for M/Q's (Conjoined MQ's):
Whenever 5 planets are aligned in such a way that a Magi Quad is formed by three of the planets PLUS the midpoint of the remaining two planets, and these two midpoint planets are at most 8 degrees apart, then the five planets actually form a "Conjuncted" Magi Quad. However, the midpoint of the two "conjoined" planets must be located within 1.5 degrees of an exact M/Q, as opposed to the standard orb of up to 2.5 degrees.
Example of Orb Exception: Ronald Reagan's Natal Chart:
See Chart Below:
In Ronald Reagan's Chart we have two connected Magi Dek Quads: Jupiter/Pluto // Saturn/Chiron and Saturn/Chiron // Sun/Neptune. Of this composite, we see that Jupiter is parallel the Sun, while Sun is parallel Venus, and Pluto is parallel Neptune, all quadralizing with the Saturn/Chiron pairing.
This is a powerful Magi Dek Quad, and is referred to as a Triple Parallel Super (Double) Aspected M/Q.
Correctly standardized in writing as:
[Jupiter parallel Sun parallel Venus] + [Pluto parallel Neptune] </D/> Saturn + Chiron.
What does this Magi Dek Quad have to say about Ronald Reagan? Use Magi Symbolisms to synthesize and integrate...
He was a powerfully charming, and highly admired, successful individual, who conducted himself and his career in an ongoing, respectable and disciplined manner.
Why the orb exception for Reagan's Chart? For conjunct/parallel M/Q's - the Pluto parallel Neptune falls within the acceptable M/Q conjunct/parallel orb, being at less than 8 degrees apart, while their respective midpoint is within 1.5 degrees of the M/Q. To be more specific, declinational Neptune is at 21.40 degrees North, while declinational Pluto is at 16.70 degrees North - the parallel aspectual difference being 4.70 degrees apart. The Jupiter-Pluto midpoint is 00.95, while the Saturn-Chiron midpoint is 01.83, resulting in a 00.88 orbital difference, which falls well within the 1.5 degree allowable orb for a M/Q composition of this nature, as opposed to the standard 2.5 degree orb.

Magi Pyramid Quad
The shape of a Magi Pyramid Quad looks more like a Triangle than a Quadrangle. For this to occur, one of the two pairings of planets must be a Conjunction. anytime there is an aspected M/Q, but the two planets that form the aspect are ALSO a pairing, there is a Magi Pyramid Quad.
When a Magi Pyramid Quad occurs in the Longitudes, the four planets form an equilateral triangle, with a conjunction at the apex of the Triangle.
When a Magi Dek Pyramid Quad occurs in the Declinations, it has a parallel of two planets (rather than a conjunction), and the midpoint of the other pairing is parallel to both planets that form the parallel.
Using Ronald Reagan's Chart again below, (Longitudes) we can easily spot a Super Triple Magi Pyramid Quad. (Look at the Super Aspects included in this Magi Pyramid Quad).
In Reagan's longitudes, with planets found in the most powerful M/Q, we see a Super Triple Magi Pyramid Quad.
Correctly standardized in writing as:
{Jupiter + Pluto </Pyramid/> Venus + Chiron </L/> Mars + Saturn}
What does this M/Q say about Ronald Reagan?
Again synthesizing and integrating with correct planetary Magi Symbolisms, we can say that this brought super success, as well as being loved for his charismatic public image in his career, along with addressing his well controlled abilities as being assertive in his career as President of the USA.
