On September 25th, 2024 we have a Grand Trine in Earth signs: Mercury in Virgo is now trine Uranus in Taurus and Pluto in Capricorn.
Grand Trines are the most beneficial configurations in astrology. Everyone loves a Grand Trine!
Uranus and Pluto have been within a very close trine angle since Pluto has returned to Capricorn. Uranus is at 27° Taurus, and Pluto at 29° Capricorn.
While the 2 outer planets are technically trining each other, they will not actually perfect the aspect orb, at least not before both Uranus and Pluto move into Gemini and Aquarius over the next couple of years.
So while the potential for good stuff is definitely there, Uranus and Pluto need an extra boost to manifest the potential of the trine.
Mercury Trine Uranus Trine Pluto
That extra boost is Mercury. On September 25th, 2024, Mercury trines Uranus, and the next day, trines Pluto, fully activating the Uranus-Pluto trine, and forming a beautiful Grand Trine in Earth signs.
The Mercury-Uranus-Pluto Grand Trine is a powerful transit not to be overlooked.
In fact, it’s the last Grand Trine in Earth signs involving 2 outer planets and a personal planet (other than the Moon) that we will have for a long, long time.
Mercury will bring an intellectual/communication-oriented angle, helping to channel the transformative and revolutionary energies of Uranus and Pluto into tangible, practical outcomes.
Thanks to Mercury, what is otherwise abstract or overwhelming becomes more accessible and understandable. Mercury will help us work with Uranus and Pluto more consciously and more productively.
Uranus and Pluto are subtle, yet powerful influences shaping your overall approach to life. Your sense of what it means to live life on your terms (Uranus). Your drive to create something meaningful and leave a lasting legacy (Pluto).
What is your highest potential? What is the best possible version of yourself? What would your life look like if you aligned with your greatest potential?
Today and tomorrow, pay close attention to any thoughts, ideas, information, or communications (Mercury) that come your way.
In myth, Mercury – or Hermes – is the winged messenger, the only deity capable of traveling between the underworld (Pluto) and the heavens (Uranus). Mercury helps connect the dots, revealing pathways between the depths of your subconscious up to the highest vision of what’s possible.
Don’t let your big dreams frighten you (Mercury opposite Neptune). The greatest achievements were once just ideas in someone’s imagination. Right now, you have the full support of the universe (Mercury trine Uranus and Pluto).
Grand Trines – The Cosmic “YES”
A few things about Trines and Grand Trines. Trines and Grand Trines are subtle energies that work within the energetic field. They don’t always bring concrete developments in the way a conjunction or a square does.
Squares for example act in the material, 3D realm, pushing us to take action, creating obvious and direct manifestations.
Trines, on the other hand, are like a supportive undercurrent. We can’t “see” trines in action, yet they work quietly in the background. Just like guardian angels, Grand Trines ensure things align smoothly and effortlessly.
With Grand Trines, things may not manifest in concrete ways immediately. However, Grand Trines create the perfect environment for ideas, plans, or intentions to flourish.
Grand Trines ar like:
Getting the green light at every intersection – traffic light turns green just as you approach
The perfect recipe – a Grand Trine is like baking a cake where every ingredient mixes effortlessly; you don’t have to worry about it going wrong
A sliding door opening at the right moment – a sliding door opens just as you arrive, and you walk through without stopping. A Grand Trine removes obstacles, making things fall into place at the perfect time
If you initiate something during a Grand Trine, there will be ease and flow. Everything will come together smoothly.
When the Astro Butterfly brand was born, on September 23rd, 2014, there was a Grand Fire Trine in the sky. Grand Fire trines favor spirituality, inspiration and personal growth. This Grand Fire Trine provided the initial conditions for Astro Butterfly to spread its wings over years.
Similarly, the things we initiate under a Grand Trine benefit from these divine ‘conditions,’ allowing them to set deep roots. Grand Trines are our golden tickets, guiding us to focus on what’s important, meaningful, and effortless.

House Rulers is for astrology enthusiasts who are already familiar with houses, but they’ve hit a wall with simplistic ‘planets in houses’ interpretations, and are eager to dig deeper.
