What does Lilith trine Sun mean in synastry?

A trine is an angle of 120 degrees, read as flow. Between Lilith and Sun it describes how the two functions those planets stand for meet — reliably enough to be worth reading, common enough to be worth checking against chance.

How common is this aspect?

It occurs in 8.89% of random pairings — the orb is 8 degrees, so the window is two bands of the 360-degree circle. In a chart comparison with dozens of planet pairs, several aspects appear for arithmetical reasons alone.

Is this aspect about us or about our ages?

Both Lilith and Sun move fast enough that their positions differ between people born weeks apart, so this aspect is genuinely specific to the two charts.

What these two planets are doing

Lilith

What refuses to be domesticated.

Sun

The core identity — what a person is when nothing is being performed.

At 120° the question this pairing raises is whether that part is allowed out or has to hide, set against whether each is comfortable being seen as they actually are. A trine lets them reinforce each other, which is comfortable and, for the same reason, easy to stop noticing.

Lilith moves 9 times slower than sun, so the faster one sets how long the exact angle holds.
