Angle: 60°

An easy cooperation between two points that offers opportunities.

The sextile (60 degrees) is a mild, supportive link: cooperation between the two points comes naturally, but usually needs a little initiative to unfold. It indicates a gift that is available as an opportunity. It typically shows in subtle, everyday talents that are worth practising consciously.

Planet pairs with this aspect

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ☽︎Moon

Identity and emotional life support each other naturally, so decisions often feel right from the inside as well. This can give a calm self-confidence, worth using consciously rather than simply living out of habit.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ☿︎Mercury

In transits or a relationship comparison (within one birth chart the Sun and Mercury cannot form this angle): your self and your mind work in natural alliance: you find words easily for what matters to you. This can give a gift for clear, understandable communication, along with an affinity for learning and teaching.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ♀︎Venus

In transits or a relationship comparison (within one birth chart the Sun and Venus cannot form this angle): identity and the capacity to love align naturally, so warm, balanced relationships tend to come easily. It can also point to taste, a feel for charm and a talent for creating beauty.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ♂︎Mars

Drive and self-awareness support each other well: resolve turns into action with relative ease. This can give strength, stamina and natural courage, which is most valuable when it also serves a purpose.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ♃︎Jupiter

Personality and trust are in natural harmony, so you often feel life is supporting you. This may indicate generosity, a wise cheerfulness and a gift for teaching or mentoring.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ♄︎Saturn

Self-confidence and a sense of responsibility form a solid foundation: you build patiently and consistently. This may indicate reliability, authority and long-term staying power that tends to grow with time.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ♅︎Uranus

Self-awareness and an innovative spirit sit well together: you take standing apart in your stride and often have forward-looking ideas. This can give a distinctive outlook and natural independence.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ♆︎Neptune

Self and imagination work together gently: intuition, artistic sense and compassionate receptivity may arise. Inspiration is most valuable when it stays connected with everyday practical life.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ♇︎Pluto

Identity and the transformative force in the depths are in natural alliance: you face difficult things readily and renew yourself. This can give psychological resilience and a gift for seeing what is essential.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ☊︎Lunar Node (North Node)

Your self and your direction of growth are well aligned: your natural gifts support your inner search. This often brings a sense of being in the right place, with life unfolding step by step.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ⚷︎Chiron

Self-awareness and the capacity to heal go well together: you have a natural feel for other people's vulnerability. This may point to a supportive, counselling or healing gift that draws on your own experience.

☉︎Sun ⚹︎ ⚸︎Black Moon Lilith

Personality and your original, free nature cooperate well: you boldly accept being different. This can give a credible, matter-of-fact self-possession and an inner freedom from convention.
