Connection也是一个常见的英语单字，按英国剑桥大学辞典，这个字的意思为The state of being related to someone or something else（与某人或某事产生关联的状态），或The act of joining or being joined to something else, or the part or process that makes this possible（参与或被某事参与的行为与过程）。
延伸到占星学中，所谓的关联或参与，都必须建立在行星看得见彼此，也就是形成相位（aspect）的前提下，因此占星学对于这个字有更专业的定义：当行星入相位至另一颗行星（在同一星座以星体靠近，或是以光线形成整星座的相位[configured]关系），从相距特定的度数开始直到形成精准相位。
从上述的定义来看，连结这个字其实包含了占星学的两个概念，一个是入相位（application），第二是整星座相位，而相对入相位而言则为离相位（separation, flowing away），故在文献中也常见与这几个字一併出现来做为对比的状态，例如戴克博士所编译的《占星诗集》（Carmen Astrologicum）提到为释放奴隶择时时，有以下考虑︰
Then, look also at the connection of the Moon and her flowing away: for if he is emancipated in the hour when the Moon is flowing away from the fortunes and connecting with the infortunes, then the state of bondage in which that slave is, is better for the slave then the emancipation he would come to. And if it was the contrary of what I mentioned, then it is the contrary of that: I mean, if you found the Moon flowing away from the infortunes and connecting with the fortunes, then it is good for that slave, for he will be rescued from the evil and trouble, and he will meet with the good and delight.
观察月亮的离相位与入相位：若释放奴隶之时，月亮正离相位于吉星而入相位于凶星，对奴隶而言成为自由身反而不如保持奴隶之身来得佳。但若与上述相反，结果亦为相反：若月亮离相位于凶星而入相位于吉星，对奴隶而言是好的，他将免于邪恶与麻烦，随之而来的是幸运与快乐。

另外，在另一本《选择与开始》（Choices and Inceptions），古代名家金迪（Al-Kindi）提到了月亮与各行星连结时适合的择时主题，例如月亮若与木星连结时，可做以下活动：
Should the Moon and Jupiter stand in a connection in any respect, it is favorable for all business and requirements, above all for meetings with nobles, judges, scholars, astrologers, and striving for necessities available through them, delegating the affairs of the sultan and of what is necessary for these. This placement is favorable for travel, for transfers, taking and giving, selling and buying, loaning, unwavering desire, bloodletting, the drinking of remedies and medicines for illnesses, desiring that a command be fulfilled, sailing by ship, learning the religious sciences, and entering the land that is aimed for.
无论月亮与木星以任何相位连结，均诸事皆宜，尤其有利于会见贵族、法官、学者、占星师并力求藉由他们获得所需，以及委派苏丹的公务与相关的必要事项。这一配置有利于旅行、转移、获取及给予、买卖、出借金钱、坚定不移的愿望、放血及服药治病、期望命令被完成、航海、学习宗教知识、进入目标中的土地。
