What It Means
A trine (120°) is the most harmonious aspect: two planets support each other easily, showing natural gifts and flow.
In our calculator, a trine counts within an orb of about 7° (a little wider when the Sun or Moon is involved).
How to Read It
Start with the two planets: what does each represent? Then apply the trine's nature — flowing. Tighter orbs are stronger. The signs and houses involved show where it plays out.
