us into action, urging us to develop some talent or ability. T-Squares amplify
the effects of your standard square, producing major obstacles, in form life
events that require much effort to overcome them. Trines are harmonious aspects
which provide encouraging conditions that aid our native talents and abilities in

time, will demand that you repair/change some part of your life in a most
dramatic fashion, depending on where these planets fall in your Natal chart. In
all likelihood you are doing that work right now.
With regard to Trines, The currents trines possess very
demanding features. Uranus in Aries is a force for radicalism, instant change, aggression
and rashness. Saturn in Sagittarius, the other portion of the trine, represents
limitation and stability coupled with need for concession and modifications. In
astrology, Saturn is the antithesis of Uranus. Saturn builds things up
and Uranus tears them down. The Trine they form is very unstable, what is known
in astrology as a detriment.
The positive feature of this trine is that it will promote
making necessary changes and adjustments in your life and those very quickly. It
will also indicate what areas may need but simple tweaks to make them work
better. No need to throw out the baby with the bathwater but might be time to
replace the bathtub.
Mars in Taurus is also creating a trine to Saturn. Mars does
well in the sign of Taurus, With Mar’s self direction attached to Taurus value oriented
perspective. Working with Saturn, in its role a repairperson, this trine will
help you to accept the Uranus/Saturn’s Trine changes more readily and offer potential
ways you can capitalize upon those changes.
