Transit Uranus Trine Sun: A Year of Painless Liberation

Transit Uranus trine Sun is a period when life is rarely this cooperative about self-renewal. The Sun describes will and personal direction; Uranus describes innovation and originality. In the 120-degree trine they look the same way: change arrives without anything having to be destroyed.

What changes when Uranus trines the Sun?

During this transit the person feels more relaxed, freer and more inspired. At work a creative idea may find unexpected backing; a promotion, a new assignment or a move into freelancing can flow smoothly. In relationships partners give each other more room, and trying something new together becomes easy. Some people take up an instrument this year, some share their writing for the first time, some finally take the trip they have dreamed of for ages.

The timing of the flow

The trine stays alive as long as Uranus remains within a few degrees of the Sun, which is roughly a year. As Uranus moves forward, stations, backs up and moves forward again, it usually touches the Sun exactly three times. Inspiration rises on the approach, opportunities sharpen at the exact passes, and gains become lasting as the aspect separates. The house the Sun rules, the area where Leo sits in the chart, benefits from the refresh too.

The hidden trap of ease

The weak point of a trine is that, since everything flows easily, nothing gets taken seriously. Steps taken now can prepare, gently and in advance, the changes that harder transits such as a square or an opposition would later force. Tying the idea to a plan and the plan to a calendar turns this transit into a lasting gain.
