Aspects › Trine › Mars trine South Node
♂︎ △︎ ☋︎ Mars trine South Node
A hundred and twenty degrees apart, Mars and the South Node move together so easily that heat and nerve can be taken for granted.
Mars pushes forward where there is desire, courage, and conflict; the South Node looks back where there is old talents and comfortable habits. What follows is what happens when the two are tied together.
These two simply agree. The will to act supports the familiar past with no friction to speak of, which is a genuine talent and, being effortless, easy to overlook.
As a transit, Mars moving to trine the South Node marks a passing window, hours to days for the Moon, months or years for the slow outer bodies, when the theme is live and worth watching. In a birth chart the same aspect is a standing feature of character rather than a single moment.
Here the trine joins Mars (drive and desire) with South Node (the familiar past), held 120° apart.
Right now
Mars and South Node currently stand about 43.0° apart, 77.0° away from an exact trine. Watch it move on the live clock.
