Square — Astrology Meaning

tension · friction · growth · crisis · breakthrough

Two planets 90° apart — productive friction.

A square is when two planets sit 90° apart, typically in incompatible modalities (e.g., Cardinal-Cardinal but in different elements). Squares create tension that demands action. Most growth comes through squares — they refuse to let you stay still.
