Moon trine Moon is one of the most pleasant aspects between two people in synastry. This aspect will bring deep understanding and harmony to any relationship.
The Moon is one of the two Luminaries, and it is the most important planet when it comes to matters of everyday life. It governs all of the ordinary matters that we deal with regularly.
The Moon also governs our habits, both conscious and unconscious, and how we naturally behave. All of these matters can have a deep impact on a relationship, particular one that becomes close.
A trine is the most harmonious aspect. In synastry, it shows where two people naturally understand each other.

The Moon trine Moon in synastry indicates a relationship in which two people have a deep, intuitive understanding of one another. It is easy for them to relate to each other, and by itself, this aspect indicates compatibility between two people.
The Moon is the Luminary that governs day to day activities. It also governs habits and unconscious attitudes and behaviors.
When two people have Moon trine Moon, they will naturally find themselves in harmony with one another. They will instinctively know what the other wants and needs.
Moon trine Moon is quite powerful, and it will smooth over all but the most difficult other synastry aspects.
The Moon rules the night, so in theory this aspect will be more powerful in the Night Signs, which are Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces. Yet, there are a few special cases among these signs which I will discuss below.
Moon trine Moon will be a little weaker in the Day Signs, which are Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, and Aquarius. On the other hand, it will operate as expected between all of these signs.
The Night Signs are divided into two elements. These are the Earth Signs, Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, and the Water Signs, Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces. Below are the special cases according to element.
Earth Signs
In the Earth Signs, the Moon is exalted in Taurus and in detriment in Capricorn. If the trine occurs between these two signs, the person whose Moon is in Taurus will feel strong love and attachment to the other person.
The person whose Moon is in Capricorn will have more complicated feelings. They will love the other, but they will also feel a sense of detachment and can seem a bit cold at times.
In the situation in which one person has the Moon in Virgo, the other person will generally have the Moon in either Taurus or Capricorn.
If the other person’s Moon is in Taurus, this will make the trine stronger and more positive. If the other person’s Moon is in Capricorn, it will weaken this aspect.
Water Signs
There is a similar situation in the Water Signs in that the Moon rules Cancer and is in its Fall in Scorpio.
If Moon trine Moon occurs in these signs, the person with the Moon in Cancer will have a deep and strong bond with the other person. The person whose Moon is in Scorpio, however, will have more complicated feelings.
The bond will still be strong, but the stormy emotions of Moon in Scorpio will make it hard to let go and trust the other person.
The situation will be even more difficult if one person has the Moon in Scorpio and the other has the Moon in Pisces. In this case, it is more likely that the person whose Moon is in Scorpio will hurt the other person’s feelings.
The best case scenario is if one person has the Moon in Cancer and the other has the Moon in Pisces. This will make Moon trine Moon even more positive than it already is.
House Position
In addition to the special sign combinations, it is important to look at the house that the Moon falls in each other’s charts.
