Think about Stellium when you or someone you know has quite a specific, dominating, personality trait. It could be a distinguishing trait that defines you. Are you competitive, impulsive, shy, creative, or outspoken? If there is a single behavioral aspect that out-shadows other personal qualities in a person, then you may suspect Stellium to be the cause. So, what is a Stellium in astrology? Let’s try to understand this.
A Stellium, also known as Satellitium in some older traditions is a cluster of generally three or more planets that fall in a single house. Here, we refer to the 12 segments of the zodiac as houses.
So, the next time when you notice a particular personality trait more emphasized in a person, it could be because of the Stellium in the zodiac house which governs that trait. His life would be heavily influenced by the personality trait of that house.
A natal chart consists of the position of planets at the time of birth. When three or more planets are present in one zodiac element such as Capricorn, Sagittarius, etc that’s called a Stellium. Read more: What Is a Stellium in Astrology
No, a Stellium is a major area of focus in a person’s life which could be either a challenge or a teaching force. It doesn’t control the entire behavior. If your partner has Stellium, let’s say in the Pisces, then you would know that he expects emotional honesty and creativity from you. However, there may be other aspects to his personality that Stellium may not tell about. It’s best to study a natal chart completely before trying to make deductions.
Knowing about the presence of a Stellium can be a great help though to understand the personality. It’s crucial in fact because it’s a major influence on the behavior of a person.
It helps to know if you have a Stellium since in that case, you would not rely on your main zodiac sign by the birth month alone. With your complete natal chart, you will know if another zodiac element is an even greater influence in your life. Read: Difference Between Astrology and Astronomy
