The SectorPlanet pattern, shown above, occurs when all but one of the planets fall within a trine (128° apart from each other) and (ideally) are The remaining tenth planet is in opposition. In fact, the tenth planet only needs to be more than 60° away from the other nine planets for the chart to be considered a sector. You can think of the sector as a wedge-shaped formation of nine planets, with the tenth planet opposing it as the "handle" of the sector.
The basic psychological characteristic of the fan-shaped pattern is to seek and utilize the resources of others to achieve personal satisfaction and completeness, and to take advantage of the house position of the handle planet and Constellation. If you have a sector planetary pattern, when all else fails, you can rely on the handle points in your chart, like the roots of a tree stretching out in search of nourishment.
Consider the 9-planet wedge in the sector; now consider the midpoint of the wedge-bounding planets. The entire thrust of the sector planetary pattern is directed toward a point in the open area of the chart opposite this midpoint, along this "thrust axis." In the image above, the wedge is bounded by Pluto at 7° Cancer 24' and Venus at 27° Virgo 07'. Their midpoint is 17° Leo 16', and the opposite point in the open area of the chart is 17° Aquarius 16'. The imaginary line starting at 17° Leo 16' and connecting 17° Aquarius 16' is the thrust axis. The relative midpoint (17° Aquarius 16') reveals through its house (7th house) and sign (Aquarius) what the Wedge personality really seeks: He Or her ultimate goal in life.
Typically, there will be some space between the thrust axis of the wedge (17° Aquarius 16') and the handle planet (29° Aquarius 40') in the fan pattern; when the two are in different signs and/or This is especially noticeable when the houses are different (in this example, the thrust axis is in the 7th house and the handle planet is in the 8th house, both in Aquarius). How successfully you deal with reality in this situation depends largely on how well you integrate the conflicting forces between the shank planet position and the wedge thrust axis. The houses and signs of the handle planets and thrust axis characterize these differences.
