You energize each other naturally. Together you feel more capable and driven.
A trine means one person’s Sun and the other person’s Mars are about 120 degrees apart. The app counts it as harmonious. What the labels mean.
A working rhythm
With this trine, one person’s will and the other’s drive tend to line up without much discussion. The Sun person decides where things are heading, the Mars person starts walking, and neither feels bossed around. You split tasks without a meeting, and you can often tell by a glance who’s cooking and who’s taking the bins out.
Physically, it often shows up as a shared level of energy. You want to go out at about the same time and you run out of steam at about the same time, which is more of a gift than people realize when they’re still in the first flush of dating.
What it can’t do
Getting things done together isn’t the same as being close. Some couples with this aspect become an excellent project team: the wedding is flawless, the kitchen’s finished, the business is doing well. Then one quiet evening they find they haven’t asked each other a personal question in months. A trine will happily let you stay busy.
It also doesn’t guarantee you’re rowing toward something you each want. Because it feels so productive, one of you can go along with a plan for a long time before noticing it was never really yours.
A habit worth keeping
Stop every so often and ask, “Is this still what we want?” Do it when nothing’s wrong. And set aside time with no goal in it at all, however odd that feels. Your energy together is a resource, so it’s worth checking what you’re spending it on. Moon contacts will tell you more about how the feeling side is doing, and those are worth reading next to this one.
