Catherine Haug. Astrological Dictionary
Trine, sextile: generally indicate psychological balance and excellent adaptability. Oriented toward seeking harmony, such a person knows how to feel and reason by analogy, looking for similarities and affinities, yet tends to reject anything that does not conform to their ideal. Sensitivity and imagination are combined with a sense of reality. They succeed in achieving harmony in relationships with others, provided other details of the horoscope do not contradict this; such a union is better for them than solitude and better than extensive socializing. They sincerely believe that differences between the sexes are not so great as to prevent mutual understanding and harmonious coexistence. They desire success both in public and family life, compromising neither in one nor the other. Astrological tradition states that these aspects in a person’s chart indicate harmony between the parents. This seems not to reflect reality—at least in our time, when divorces are so frequent and greatly distort the entire picture. In fact, it is more accurate to say that for someone with a harmonious Sun-Moon aspect in their chart, even parental quarrels they witness serve merely as an additional incentive to seek and believe in harmony.
Avesalom Podvodny. Aspects
Sun sextile: Incorrect choices most often do not signify carelessness or error, but rather a betrayal of one’s God. The Sun sextile gives the individual opportunities in the areas ruled by the planet, whose realization will require willpower and initiative; it is also likely that in working through these opportunities, they will encounter fairly strict, imperative circumstances, which, however, will not be hostile, but rather potentially friendly, though demanding a certain approach and mutual adaptation. The Sun sextile seems to throw the individual (in the planet’s relevant areas) a masculine challenge, inviting them to test the presence of willpower capable of overcoming obstacles and establishing cooperation; the obstacles implied are non-antagonistic, and the cooperation expected is beneficial and effective. If the person does not feel ready to accept this challenge, they may decline it: once, twice, three times… after some time, such a consistent refusal to accept any constructive offers from fate begins to work against the person; they degenerate and fall into rigid karmic programs where their choices are minimal or entirely absent. On the other hand, the Sun sextile offers a very valuable opportunity to work through its principle—namely, one’s will—during constructive activity related to the planet. By resolving inner issues arising in connection with such activity, the person learns to properly direct their will, gains the ability to determine which egregor influences them, and to align it with external circumstances and various subconscious programs. For example, the Sun-Moon sextile is a very promising aspect; in particular, it offers great potential for both physical and spiritual development. At a high level, this is an aspect of spiritual teachers who deeply understand the relationship between higher and lower instincts in a specific individual and know how to set them on a constructive path of evolutionary development. Moon sextile: Overcoming laziness, the person gives an impulse to social development. This aspect offers prospects for subconscious development in the areas ruled by the planet. For example, with Moon sextile Mars, the person will repeatedly have opportunities throughout life to increase their physical strength and agility (an aspect of athletes), as well as master skills requiring significant subconscious involvement (developing clear conditioned reflexes); for instance, various manual professions: locksmiths, turners, drivers (especially with the Moon in the 8th house), etc. The Moon sextile offers great prospects for spiritual growth, as it provides the opportunity for constructive processing of purely egoistic subconscious programs by elevating them to higher vibrations, and expanding the person’s worldview (and their role in the evolutionary process). For example, Moon sextile Venus offers real opportunities to shift from a passive-consumer attitude toward love and art (which will in any case play an important role in the person’s life) to an active-creative one: the person will have the chance (if willing) not only to be passively in love with another, but also to rebuild that person through their love, at least partially, and simultaneously themselves. Similar effects will occur in aesthetic development—the person will not only be interested in art and enjoy it according to their understanding (typical of the trine); they will often feel that merely experiencing others’ artworks is insufficient, and fate will provide various opportunities for involvement in artistic creation, musical activity, etc., requiring certain efforts but bringing immense inner satisfaction and, importantly, a much deeper understanding of art (with Moon trine Venus: art, other people, and divine love). Neglect and persistent ignoring of the opportunities offered by the Moon sextile later lead to deep dissatisfaction with life and oneself (often projected onto others) and the triumph of superficial egoism in the areas ruled by the planet. Properly working through these opportunities brings not only refined creative development of the planet’s principle but also general spiritual growth of the individual, associated with the constructive transformation of lower subconscious programs.
