Chart Pattern Explorer
Aspects are sentences; patterns are paragraphs. When three or more planets lock into classical geometry, the configuration behaves as a single machine with its own agenda. This lab finds every instance in your chart, names the planets driving it, and tells you where to start reading.
Load a chart to detect its aspect patterns: stelliums, grand trines, T-squares, grand crosses, yods, and kites, with the exact planets forming each one.

How to use the Pattern Explorer
›What counts as a pattern
The lab detects six classical configurations: stelliums, grand trines, T-squares, grand crosses, yods, and kites, built from your chart's major aspects (with quincunxes computed at a tight 3 degree orb for yods). Each instance lists its member planets and, where the geometry has one, its focal planet.
›Focal planets first
In any pattern with an apex (T-square, yod, kite), the focal planet is where the energy concentrates and where the work happens. Read its sign, house, and condition before anything else. Patterns without an apex (stellium, grand trine, grand cross) are read by element, modality, and the strongest member.
›Frequency context
The research corpus comparison shows how common each pattern is among verified charts. T-squares are common engines; kites and grand crosses are genuinely rare. Rarity is not importance, but it tells you how unusual your chart's machinery is.
