Definition:
In astrology, a "conjunction" is an aspect which occurs two or more planets are located in the same zodiacal region. Astrologers like to portray a conjunction as some sort of "inseparable union" between the "energies" of the two planets. How an individual astrologer decides to portray this planetary union influences the final form of the astrological interpretation.
