The energy that flows between the planets in your horoscope is called aspects. You can read much more about it in my Astrology Guide. Aspects are an expression of your behavior. How you are in a given situation. Both positively, but also negatively.
When an aspect is based on your personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars), your behavior is influenced by the planet that is in aspect to your personal planet. In principle, you can say that you take on a role. An aspect can play out either in a balanced or unbalanced way.
If you want to work positively with yourself in a spirit of development, growth, improving your qualities, and gaining an understanding of who you are, it’s a good idea to find your Sun (and then your other personal aspects). Then, you will find out which aspects your Sun forms energy with. That is, which planet is at the other end.
When we are in situations with our relationships, these patterns (aspects) will play out. It is often in conflict situations, but absolutely also in situations where you are not aware of your role, behavior, and energy.
Interpersonal communication patterns or personality types describe how you react in relationships, especially in conflict situations.
Here, I mention some of the types that are common in most horoscopes. You can easily be all types, but there will always be one or two types that you are most like. It naturally depends on which environment you step into and who you are with.
- The Avoidant TypeDescription: The avoidant type tries to avoid conflict by withdrawing or ignoring problems. They may either completely avoid confrontation or find themselves ignoring important issues in a relationship.Energy type: Steals energy by withdrawing and not participating in problem-solving. They can create frustration in others because they are unwilling to engage in difficult conversations.
- The Dominant TypeDescription: The dominant type seeks to take control of situations and people. They can often be very outgoing and make decisions without listening to others’ input. They want their opinion to be the one that matters.Energy type: Steals energy by downplaying others’ needs and opinions, making them feel less important or insignificant.
- The Dependent TypeDescription: This type tends to constantly seek support and validation from others. They find it difficult to make decisions without help and often wish to be dependent on others’ approval.Energy type: Can steal energy by constantly demanding attention and support, which can leave others feeling exhausted because they are not given the chance to express their own needs.
- The Critical TypeDescription: The critical type is quick to point out flaws and shortcomings in others. They can be very critical, both of themselves and others, and often struggle to acknowledge others’ strengths or successes.Energy type: Steals energy by being constantly negative or critical, creating insecurity in others and potentially leading to low self-esteem for those interacting with this type.
- The Confrontational TypeDescription: The confrontational type is not afraid to face conflict directly and challenge people who go against their beliefs or opinions. They can be very direct and willing to stand firm on their views, even when it causes discomfort.Energy type: Can steal energy by creating constant confrontation and discomfort in interactions, making people feel threatened or stressed.
- The Modest TypeDescription: The modest type does not seek much attention and is often reluctant to express their own needs and desires. They do not try to impose their views or wishes on others.Energy type: This type steals energy in a more subtle way by suppressing themselves and their needs, which may lead others to feel responsible for stepping in and taking control, even when they might not want to.

They can be skilled at getting others to do what they want without being revealed as manipulators.Energy type: Steals energy by making others feel confused or uncertain about what is really happening, creating an imbalance in the relationship.
- The Confident TypeDescription: The confident type exudes self-assurance and often has a positive influence on others. They take responsibility for their own lives and expect the same from others. They are not afraid to stand by their choices and decisions.Energy type: This type rarely steals energy from others unless they become arrogant or overly critical in their self-assurance. They generally have a positive influence on those around them.
- The Avoidant and Evasive TypeDescription: This type avoids taking responsibility or standing by their actions. They try to escape conflicts by denying them or avoiding them altogether.Energy type: Steals energy by creating an atmosphere of unpredictability and lack of responsibility. Others may feel responsible for solving problems for them, which can lead to frustration and exhaustion.
