idk who needs to hear this but you can develop a relationship with the planets without categorizing it as remediation!
1/thread!

Remediation is a very specific arena of astrological activity that requires nuanced, careful, & deliberate work to alleviate difficulties that can be pinpointed to something(s) within the natal chart and/or current planetary circumstances.
2/

Building relationships with the planets is a broader category of astrological activity. If you engage with remediation, you'll automatically be building a relationship with a given planet, BUT building a relationship with a planet is NOT automatically "remediation."
3/

Astrological remediation isn't something you can treat like conventional allopathic medicine -- "do this one thing and it will fix your Mars problems!" isn't how it works.

And! What's helpful for one chart is not guaranteed to work for another! It's not one-size-fits-all!
4/

Remediation takes the ENTIRE chart into consideration, along with timing techniques, the experiences of the person in question, what's accessible/possible/preferred for that person, and so forth.

I am NOT AT ALL an expert on remediation, as gaining expertise in remediative work takes YEARS of practice, effort, observation, failure, & success.

But I know enough to know that remediative work is something to be careful around, respectful of, and intentional with.

(who is an expert? my main teacher @AustinRCoppock, Freedom Cole, and a few others who have spent time & energy & hours of study on this aspect of astrology. if you have qs and we're mutuals, you can dm me for other recs)

I might not be a remediation expert, but I AM someone who is invested in continuously developing respectful relationships with the planets.

Developing relationship is accessible & available to anyone regardless of remediative knowledge or orientation.
8/

Can developing relationships with the planets offer remediation-like results? Yes, totally.

But I want to suggest that maybe, just maybe, developing the relationship -- and not fixing your problems -- is in and of itself enough of a reason to light a candle & say a prayer.
