What these two are about together

Need and disruption. Whether emotional life is settled or repeatedly rearranged, often by the person themselves.

What a sextile does

A sextile is traditionally read as opportunity rather than event. The two planets are in compatible elements and can work together easily, but the tradition is specific that a sextile describes something available rather than something that arrives. It is the aspect most often described as a door that is unlocked and still shut.

How it reads

Comfortable with change. Associated with people who are not frightened by upheaval and who find routine harder than most.

In practice

Reads as ease that is not automatic. Where a trine tends to be used without thinking, a sextile tends to be noticed and then either taken up or left alone.

What to watch for

Nothing happening. A sextile that goes unused is the most common way this aspect is experienced, and it is not a failure of the aspect.

The two planets

Moon: Need, instinct and what settles you

Uranus: Disruption, independence and the sudden turn
