On 21K;19P. The Combinations of the Stars.
When he says, for example, "When Saturn and Jupiter are together," does he mean in conjunction or simply by aspect?
On the contrary, important developments in traditional western astrologyI think a complete newbie would find Vettius Valens Anthologies (who wrote in around 150 CE) to be very confusing.
He wouldn't even bring you up to date on the past centuries of developments in traditional western astrology.
By aspect. If you continue to read the passage, he talks about the planets being in their own signs, ill-dignified, etc., and a lot of the sentences wouldn't make sense if it were conjunction only.

This then is what we have explained
with respect to the distinctive characteristics of individual
stars as well as several taken together. If other stars share the configuration (being in conjunction or in aspect), the reading of the horoscope will be changed according to the nature of
the additional star.
