starbuck,
A planet at zero degrees is in a "fate degree" (strong energy). This has nothing to do with aspects. ANY planet affects any OTHER planet it aspects: the closer a planet is to being exact in aspect to another planet, the stronger the planet's influence will be on the other planet. Since the "orb" is a measure of how close a planet can be and still be in aspect, the less the orb used to measure the aspect, the stronger the aspect. For this reason, some astrologers use only very small orbs, in order to be certain the aspects they measure are the most powerful in the chart.

zero degrees, to starbuck
starbuck,
As mentioned, I don't think of one planet's properties in terms of the ENTIRE chart. There are chart patterns (entire chart), planetary patterns (certain planets in the chart), and individual planets (individual planets). The idea of "fate degree" is about a degree range from 29 degrees up to (but not including) 1 degree.
The idea is that those planets which are at the "edge" of their degree are strong energies in their own way. 29 degree energies (from 29 degrees up to but not including 0 degrees) are trying to "stay where they are" and not slip into the next sign. 0 degree energies (from 0 degrees up to but not including 1 degree) are trying to "move ahead" and not slip back into the previous sign. So a planet at 29 degrees Virgo is trying to express its Virgoness and resist its Libraeness (the next sign after Virgo). A planet at 0 degrees Libra is trying to be Libra and resist slipping back into Virgoness (the sign before Libra).
So in your example of 0.00 degrees and 0.56 degrees, I'd include them BOTH as 0 degrees. However, my goal in astrology is to always keep things simple, so I am certain many astrologers have all sorts of rules for how to handle decimal degrees!
Keeping it simple,

Hi Discover,
To be honest i don't know enough about Alcyone to claim its effect on my chart. You know I am somewhat familiar with her poignant story, but I would have to think a bit about it before offering a response. She seems to be not merely about sadness, tears and bereavement, but deep loyalty, protection (warding off evil) and reproduction.

0 Degrees Pisces is a Feminine degree, a smokey and Azimene degree.
Translation=
Smokey = With regards to something mixed.. mixed results, unclearity etc.
Azimene = There will be some crookedness, deformities, with the Feet (Pisces). This is especially powerful is Ascending.

Hahhah! Discover. Yeah you really have to be careful with those astreoids or you'll walk around thinking you're going to get decapititated or drowned at sea any minute. The very old emphasis was on the dramatiuc--melodramatic--and dark. So when I see Algol conjunct Venus I suspect someone is losing their head over love as opposed to going under the guillotine. Alcyone threw herself over because not only despair but love and loyalty. During the halycone days of laying eggs the seas are calm and she wards off evil..and reproduction comes safely to fruition ....
Hey Red Corsage,
Not fair to mention the guillotine on the Astro forum. I'm of French birth and take umbrage to that! (the neck still hurts in this lifetime..) and let's not forget that the Statue of Liberty originated from France.
Oh yay, just kidding and nice touch. ps txs for your reply to post.:38:

Re: zero degrees, to starbuck
I have an ascendant at 29+degrees in Pisces and have been told that I am in no way a Pisces as I definitely exhibit Aries traits and I am an Aries Sun to boot. I am trying to grasp how this works. Can someone please explain.

Marsgirl,
Check your birthtime. Since you are very close, only a few minutes could shift you into Aries.

Thank you so much for responding but this is what my chart looks like and planetary positions. You will see that I have quite a few planetary positions in the 29+ degree range.
