Traditionally, this question is decided in favor of the last conjunction, in which both planets are direct;  it is believed that the first connection poses a problem, the second suggests its solution, and the third determines the possible consequences.  On the example of historical events, we had the opportunity to be convinced of some inaccuracy of this approach, which requires clarification: the first connection leads to the emergence of the symbolism of a new creative era and is often associated with the events in which it manifests itself;  the second, as it were, cancels it, and the third restores and spreads its influence in space and time.  However, working in the system of astrology of time, we apply a different principle to determine the priority of one of the three conjunctions - as influencing the spirit of time most strongly.  Significant is the conjunction of the planets (and the map corresponding to it), at which the point
