An opposition places two needs face to face, inviting you to hear both and discover how they can complement each other.

## What it represents

An opposition is an aspect, an angular relationship between two chart bodies, with a reference angle of 180°. In astrological interpretation, two themes face each other like people across a table. You want an evening to yourself and also want to see someone; you value a habit and feel curious about a different proposal. The gift is seeing both perspectives and finding complementarity. The challenge is recognizing the need you tend to attribute only to other people. Planets, signs and houses specify the two voices, which can take turns depending on the situation. Astraluno identifies an opposition within an angular tolerance stated in its method.

## In practice

- The two perspectives you want to keep in the conversation
