No Such Thing as a Uranus Trine Itself

"Uranus trine Uranus is not a possible aspect because everyone has only one Uranus placement in their birth chart."

The Challenge

Because Uranus is a generational planet, it does not form aspects to itself. It is helpful to consider its aspects to other planets and points in one's birth chart to better understand its influence. Aspects between Uranus and other planets show generational pulls and struggles. Aspects between Uranus and other outer planets give insight into larger trends and patterns in society.

The Strength

Uranus is a planet associated with ingenuity and innovation. The sign and house placement of Uranus in the birth chart describe where these innovative shifts occur. The aspects of Uranus to other planets highlight both the benefits and difficulties an individual may experience when trying to integrate or resist these Uranian forces.

Advice

There isn't a Uranus trine Uranus aspect in astrology. This is because, each individual only has one placement for Uranus, and an aspect requires two or more placements. Aspects signify the angular relationships between planets in the birth chart. Because Uranus is a generational planet, aspects to personal planets will describe how an individual relates to their generation and generational shifts. For example, consider examining any aspects Uranus makes to your Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, or Venus placements. If you do not have any of those aspects, consider any aspects Uranus makes to your Saturn, Jupiter, or other outer planets.
