In astrology, a Kite is an aspect pattern built around a Grand Trine, with one of the Grand Trine planets opposing a fourth planet or chart factor. That fourth factor typically forms sextile aspects to the other two points of the Grand Trine, producing a configuration that resembles the shape of a kite. Astrologers often interpret the pattern as combining the relative ease and flow associated with the Grand Trine with the focus, tension, or direction introduced by the opposition. The opposing factor may become an important point of activation within the configuration. As with other aspect patterns, the meaning of a Kite depends on the planets, signs, houses, aspects, and overall chart context involved.
