Is this picture how trines feel?
Okay Astro-Fiends…You know how there are “trine” aspects in your chart? These are said to be “good” or “easy” and “flowing”. They are when planets are 120 degrees apart from one another. The so-called compatible signs are all in trine to one another. eg; Aries trines Leo. Both Fire signs. But if you had a planet at 21 degrees in Aries and a planet at 21 degrees Leo, they would be trine.
You can go to Astrodienst & figure this out and then chat about it in the comments. The challenge is this. Find your CLOSEST trine. See how well those two planets work together. And how much easier you find the affairs of the House they are in. If you use the Extended Chart Options of Astrodienst, it comes up with a graph that shows you which planets make which aspect to what and how close their aspect is. You are looking for a triangle symbol – that means trine – and for a number below 4.
This is a fab way to learn Astrology! Later, we can investigate squares and see how the apparently most difficult aspect in your chart manifests compares to your trines…
So, find your closest trine. Think about whether this is something you take for granted or is it a blessing you give thanks for everyday? They say, btw, that your squares & oppositions, once buffed up operate more like lucky trines.
Eg; My closest trine is between Venus and Neptune. Venus is in Pisces, ruled by Neptune & it’s very close: Venus 22 Pisces and Neptune 19 Scorpio. This means i have a true love of art, poetry, wine, myth – all the Neptunian things, quite removed from any academic appreciation of them. It’s just diffuse adoration.
In love, i can be tres giving of course but Venus-Neptune gives on the ability to gaze upon a surly guy in the corner at the gym and bestow him with all sorts of magical qualities. He becomes a prince in exile under the magical gaze of Venus-Neptune. Venus Neptune in trine means you don’t have to try v.hard to be psychic but one has to beware nebulous, ill-defined situations & lower Neptunian scenarios that it’s all too easy to just sort of glide into.
What is your closest trine and is it working for you? An unexploited trine is a waste!

Well because I just looked up epona in my chart I threw in Pars Fortunae…and man did the trines trine up again with that little snippet of info. So I have Pars Fortunae in Aquarius in house 9….and then look across and there are trines with Jupiter 3°20s and Mars-0°25s.
Epona in Cancer is also trining away with Chiron 1°50. I find this stuff appearing in Aquarius interesting…as that’s where lilith also lies.-
I know some people think the asteroids are not important etc. but I find they actually throw some uncanny light onto eccenticities and quirks. Have you checked out your other arabic parts on the parts generator mystic has on the sidebar LL? I worked all mine out once – lost them but they were eerily accurate. There could be some quirky little trines in your chart if you look there too.
Your aquarius trines w lilith – luck and good fortune when you work with goddess/feminine energies? Lilith in aqua is a free spirit who remains independent in the crowd – def your style from what I’ve seen of you on blog.

I’ll try at some stage in the next couple of days whatever. I think I got about 5 hours sleep last night in between fiddling around looking at trines and studying. I don’t think I’m going to make it much past 9pm tonight.
Also thanks I like the thought of being a free spirit independent of the crowd…it’s interesting finding these different aspects that give insight into your possibilities and voice to your inclinations. Thanks again, Mystic for sending us off looking for stuff.

Wonderful topic!
Thanks for giving us hints to study astrology and find out more about it and ourselves, Mystic!My closest trine is Leo Moon at 29 and Saggitarius Neptune at 25.
(another one is Virgo Venus at 9 with Lillith/MC/South Node at 7 Capricorn – But this is minor as no proper second planet involved, no?)I earn my money in the film industry as producer, freelance author and cameraoperator. Currently I am starting my own business as a photographer. I mainly take photos of musicians, bands, concerts ….
the funny thing is, this trine is connected to some very prominent squares..
Leo Moon is squared by Scorpio Mars/Uranus conjunction and Taurus Chiron. Neptune squares my sun – with an orb of 1 degree. and i feel that this truly fits with everything I went through to actually do this kind of work. It is utterly important to me to earn my money with what i love, which I’m naturally, instinctively drawn to and doing permanently: observing the world and finding the special details of beauty. But, of course, I am a Virgo, too… -
Well, I am not sure, Bill Clinton apparently has this aspect.

Well, nothing much doing in my chart, at least if I look at the planets. The closest thing I have to a trine is Uranus 22 Aquarius and Saturn 14 Gemini. That’s not such a great trine i.e. it’s not really strong, is it?
-
Sigh. What about a simply explanation for oppositions? My chart is full of them! Not a single trine!
Have a fabulous Christmas everyone. Just love reading this site.

Wait a minute! I’ve consulted a more recent printout and there is some trines!!!!
Sun, Moon and Venus are trine with neptune.
Sun and Moon are trine.
Saturn and Venus are trine with my ascendant (cancer).
Mars is trine with Jupiter.
Phew, I feel better now. But there ARE a lot of oppostions.
I’ll have to study them up now!

Mars Jupiter sounds like a good’un
Are you the pate for morning tea with the workmates chick? I’ve been wondering if that was you for a while (you disappeared for ages?) Vague memory of you couldn’t find Yoga – that whole phase of having the shits with being in a country town due to family needs? If it’s not you this won’t make sense at all…
But if it is Mars Jupiter seems like just the kind of thing to make a girl bring pate to the country town workplace morning tea lol. High brow snacks of foreign origin for the workmates – no marie biccies and an urn of filtered coffee for you : o)
