                {

                },
                {
                    "title": "Potential Growth",
                    "description": "Despite the inherent tension, this aspect could be a catalyst for growth. It can prompt Person two to reassess their path and could eventually lead to their personal evolution. Person one, in turn, can learn valuable lessons about compromise and acceptance."
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "p1": {

                "full_degree": "156.1323021",

                "longitude": "6:7:56"
            },
            "orb": 5.97,
            "aspect": "Square",
            "aspect_type": "Hard",
            "reading": [
                {
                    "title": "Energy Conflict",
                    "description": "In this aspect, Person one's natural drive and assertiveness, represented by Mars, creates tension with Person two's spiritual growth and destiny, symbolized by the North Node. It poses potential friction and disagreement."
                },
                {
                    "title": "Mitigating Factors",
                    "description": "Although there is tension, the square aspect does not mean the relationship is doomed. How Person one and Person two navigate these difficulties can bring growth and maturity. Communication and mutual understanding are key."

            ]
        },
  • To decipher the API response, first, identify the conflicting aspects by looking at the "planet" fields in the "p1" and "p2" sections. 
  • Then, check the "aspect" field for the type of conflict (e.g., "Square"). 
  • Each conflict has a "reading" section containing detailed descriptions, divided into different "title" and "description" pairs, explaining the impact of the aspect on the relationship.
