左相位和右相位是古典占星的重要概念,现代占星已很难见到。

左相位(sinister)即行星向左侧(与星座次序一致)发出的相位,右相位(dexter)即行星向右侧(与星座次序相反)发出的相位。

They say that the trine, square, and sextile from which a star has come are on the right, but those towards which the star is going are on the left. […] For each of the stars sends forth seven rays, three upwards and three downwards, and one towards the diameter, of which the upward ones are on the right side, but the downward ones are on the left side.

——Porphyry, Introduction, 9, trans. Demetra George, unpublished, modified.

行星向黄道十二星座前序星座发出的相位为右相位(dexter),而向黄道十二星座后序星座发出的相位为左相位(sinister)。

如位于白羊座的水星向白羊座前序的水瓶座发出六分相、向摩羯座发出四分相、向射手座发出三分相,这些相位均为右相位;白羊座的水星向白羊座后序的双子座发出六分相、向巨蟹座发出四分相、向狮子座发出三分相,这些相位均为左相位。

中世纪占星家非常重视左相位和右相位,通常认为右相位是吉相位,左相位是凶相位,因为古希腊同样以右为尊。但到底是否右相位比左相位要更有利,存在争议,诚如Robert Zoller所说:

因此建议仅了解左相位和右相位,但可以使用宰执(Overcoming)来进行解盘,或者我们可以直接通过判断行星强弱关系来判断相位,这一条法则是确定的,而且是非常好用的:
