Meaning

What Moon Trine Chiron means

Trine (120°): flow. A gift that comes easily and is just as easily missed. Trines are talents you never had to earn, and what sits there simply works. The catch is that because it is so easy, you often leave it unused. A trine wants to be picked up on purpose, or it falls asleep.

Here feeling meets old wounds, and the two themes flow together effortlessly and things come more easily.
