The sextile
The angle a sextile marks, and what it does between two planets.
In the astrological tradition, a sextile is a 60° angle, read as a friendly, supportive connection. The two points involved get along with a little encouragement — an opportunity rather than a given. Astrologers often describe it as talent that shows up when you reach for it, in contrast to the more automatic flow of a trine.

It is a specific angle between two points, measured in degrees. The paragraph above describes how astrologers read it.
How tight does a sextile need to be?
