Mercury trine Venus: meaning in the birth chart

A trine calls for a 120° gap between two planets; Mercury and Venus never get past 76°: this lovely aspect simply does not exist between them. A trine links two planets 120° apart, but Mercury and Venus, both close to the Sun, never move more than 76° away from each other in the sky. The Mercury-Venus trine is therefore a configuration you will not find in any birth chart, and that is good news: it means the link between your mind and your sensitivity plays out through aspects that are more intimate and more tangible. The Mercury-Venus conjunction describes a thinking and a heart that cannot be separated, where speech becomes charm; the Mercury-Venus sextile describes a supple harmony, made of curiosity about others and an ease in creating connection. Head over to those two pages to discover how your relational intelligence truly expresses itself.
