Trine
The most harmonious aspect: an inborn gift that flows easily.
Definition
The planets are 120° apart, usually in signs of the same element. Energy flows between them without resistance, like a natural talent. Because it feels so easy its value is sometimes missed; trines are strongest when something else in the chart puts them to work.

Common questions
What is a grand trine?
Three planets each 120° apart, forming a triangle in one element: a very fluent talent that can also make life too comfortable.
