The inconjunct, which is also called the quincunx, is commonly referred to as a minor aspect. However, Frances Sakoian and Louis Acker present information in support of their viewpoint that the incojunct is a "not so minor" aspect.Associated with Mercury and the sixth house, and Mars, Pluto, and the eighth house, the inconjunct acts as a lens or focusing device between the spiritual will and the desire principle. Difficult situations are often a direct product of undisciplined thinking, which is the essence of the inconjunct. Undisciplined thoughts lead to situations in which people see themselves as victims of conditions over which they have no control. Disciplined thoughts, however, lead to positive manifestation.In this book, the authors delineate the natal and transiting aspects of the inconjunct, with a chapter devoted to each planet. Also included is introductory material about the meanings of the natal and transiting inconjunct.

The annual solar return is a living diary of life. Each year its message builds on the previous year's solar return and indicates pathways into the future.

With continued use, the solar return becomes a learning tool and a mirror of the individual's life.Your Solar Return by Cynthia Bohannon contains information that brings an awareness and guidance that cannot be obtained from any other system. It emphasizes the value of viewing the solar return as a natural and insightful progression of life.Included in this book are sections on the solar return Ascendant sign, intercepted signs, aspects, and how to use a solar return calendar in order to obtain the maximum benefits from this predictive tool. In-depth sections focus on the meanings of the planets and their house placements.
