☿︎ △︎ ☊︎ Mercury trine North Node
A hundred and twenty degrees apart, Mercury and the North Node move together so easily that quickness and wit can be taken for granted.
Mercury connects where there is thought, speech, and exchange; the North Node points ahead where there is the path being learned. What follows is what happens when the two are tied together.
These two simply agree. The thinking mind supports the direction of growth with no friction to speak of, which is a genuine talent and, being effortless, easy to overlook.
As a transit, Mercury moving to trine the North 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 Mercury (mind and message) with North Node (the path being learned), held 120° apart.
Right now
Mercury and North Node currently stand about 158.6° apart, 38.6° away from an exact trine. Watch it move on the live clock.
