NOTE: If there are multiple Trines on a zodiac chart it can sometimes be a indication of a blissfully easy or posh lifestyle - which in some cases may culminate in a sense of aloofness or a poor work ethic.īecause mysterious Neptune and scorching hot Mercury are Trine to each other, they can be described as having harmonious ideas and supportive energies. While astrology students may learn simply that "Trine's are positive aspects", to truly interpret a Trine, it's important to look at the positive qualities of each planet individually, and to consider how those qualities may be mixed in a positive way. The characteristics and energies of the two celestial "planets" are pooled and mixed, revealing the best in the other - but they also combine in powerful new ways.

Whenever two celestial bodies like Mercury and Neptune are said to be "Trine" on a birth chart or transit chart it means they are located at an approximate 120-degree angle from one another.Īs a rule, astrologers allow for 9-degrees of margin on each side of that 120-degree angle, so if Mercury and Neptune are distanced by just 111-degrees from one another, or as far apart as 129-degrees from one another, they would also be considered "Trine".Ĭelestial "planets" which are "Trine" mutually help the other, and vice versa.
