An aspect of 180 degrees of arc, formed by a division of the 360 degree zodiac by two Under normal circumstances, the planets involved will fall into opposing signs, with a different polarity and element, yet united around a common archetypal theme The opposition is usually intepreted as providing tension between the planets involved
an armed adversary (especially a member of an opposing military force); "a soldier must be prepared to kill his enemies"
The moment when one of the outer planets is directly opposite the sun Because the orbits are fairly circular, this nearly coincides with the time of closest approach to the Earth
The situation of two celestial bodies with their celestial longitudes (the angular distance measured east of the vernal equinox along the ecliptic) differing by 180 degrees; for example, opposition occurs when the moon and the sun are directly in line with the earth and on opposite sides of the earth
The opposition is the person or team you are competing against in a sports event. Poland provide the opposition for the Scots' last warm-up match at home
Opposition is another early relational frame In natural language use, this kind of relational responding involves an abstracted dimension along which events can be ordered and distinguished in equal ways from a reference point Along the verbally abstracted dimension of temperature, for example, cool is the opposite of warm, and cold is the opposite of hot The specific relational frame of opposition typically (but not necessarily) implicates the relevant dimension (e g , pretty is the opposite of ugly is relevant to appearance) Opposition should normally emerge after coordination because the combinatorially entailed relation in frames of opposition includes frames of coordination (e g , if hot is the opposite of freezing and cold is the opposite of hot, then cold is the same as freezing)
The planet is directly opposite the sun in the sky, so can be seen all night At or near opposition the planet is also closest and brightest, so is the best time to observe
1 The situation of two celestial bodies having either celestial longitudes or sidereal hour angles differing by 180 degrees The term is usually used only in relation to the position of a planet or the moon from the sun Compare conjunction
A position where the two kings are on the same rank, file, or diagonal with an odd number of squares separating them If there is only one square inbetween both Kings, this is direct opposition If there are three to five squares seperating the Kings, this is distant opposition A player "has the opposition" if the Kings are in direct opposition and the opponent must move, thereby allowing the player to advance his King

The situation of a heavenly body with respect to another when in the part of the heavens directly opposite to it; especially, the position of a planet or satellite when its longitude differs from that of the sun 180°; - - signified by the symbol &?;; as, &?; &Jupiter; &Sun;, opposition of Jupiter to the sun
The point at which a planet is exactly opposite the Sun in the sky, and as a result rises at sunset and is visible all night until it sets at sunrise When a planet is at opposition it is best-placed for observation Inferior planets, ie Mercury and Venus as viewed from Earth, can never be at opposition P
21 A 180-degree aspect Oppositions indicate that the aspecting planets work to opposing ends, generally (though occasionally the opposite is true - oppositions by nature are the most contrary aspects)
An opposition occurs whenever one celestial object is opposite another in the sky For instance, the Full Moon, which is opposite the Sun, is in opposition to the Sun Generally speaking "opposition" usually refers to a time when an object, such as a planet, is opposite the Sun When in opposition to the Sun, objects rise at sunset and set at sunrise Only planets and other objects farther from the Sun than the Earth can be in opposition to the Sun
