A sextile describes a possible collaboration between two functions, developed through choosing to use it.

## What it represents

A sextile is an aspect, an angular relationship between two chart bodies, with a reference angle of 60°. In astrological interpretation, it describes a possibility for cooperation that grows when you choose to use it. Think of an invitation to a workshop: the door is open, but you need to enter. Or imagine meeting someone whose skill complements your approach. The gift is a fertile exchange between functions that can support each other; the challenge is noticing a quiet resource before leaving it in the background. Planets, signs and houses describe the collaborating themes. Astraluno uses a declared angular tolerance to recognize a sextile when the distance varies slightly.

## In practice

- A skill you can connect with another

- The action that turns an opening into an experience
