Stellium
Definition
A cluster of three or more planets in the same zodiac sign or house of a birth chart, concentrating that sign or area of life into a dominant, defining theme.
A stellium is a cluster of three or more planets gathered in the same zodiac sign or the same house of a birth chart. Where most charts spread their planets around, a stellium concentrates a great deal of energy in one place.
That concentration tends to make the sign or area of life it falls in a defining theme — someone with a stellium in the tenth house may be intensely career-focused; a stellium in Scorpio, unusually intense and depth-seeking. A stellium isn’t better or worse than an even spread; it simply describes a chart with a strong centre of gravity, and a person for whom one part of life carries outsized weight.
