3. Astrology and Astronomy. An apparent proximity of two planets or other heavenly bodies; the position of these when they are in the same, or nearly the same, direction as viewed from the earth.Formerly, two planets were said to be in conjunction when they were in the same sign of the zodiac, or even in adjacent signs; in modern astronomy, the term is definitely restricted to their position at the moment when they are in the same longitude or right ascension. Conjunction is often used simply for conjunction with the sun of a primary planet (formerly also of the moon, in which case it is equivalent to ‘new moon’). An inferior planet may be in inferior conjunction, i.e. between the earth and the sun, or in superior conjunction, i.e. on the farther side of the sun.
