Transits and Progressions

Transits refer to the ongoing movement of the planets through the sky and how they interact with the positions of the planets in your natal chart. This interaction influences various life events, personal growth, and emotional experiences. Understanding transits can help you prepare for upcoming experiences and make informed decisions.

Key Transits

  1. Saturn Return: Occurring approximately every 29.5 years, the Saturn return marks a significant period of personal growth and responsibility. During this time, individuals often reassess their life goals and may face challenges that encourage maturity.

  2. Venus Retrograde: This transit invites reflection on relationships, love, and values. It typically occurs every 18 months and can lead to misunderstandings or reevaluation of personal connections.

  3. Mercury Retrograde: Known for communication disruptions and technical glitches, this transit happens three to four times a year. It is a time to review, revise, and reconnect rather than start new projects.

  4. Jupiter Transits: Jupiter, known as the planet of expansion and abundance, takes about 12 years to complete its orbit through all 12 zodiac signs. As it transits through different houses in your natal chart, it brings opportunities for growth, prosperity, and optimism. This transit can enhance confidence and facilitate new experiences, particularly in the areas of life represented by the house it is occupying. However, it can also lead to excess and overindulgence if not approached with balance.

  5. Pluto Transits: Pluto moves much more slowly than other planets, taking about 248 years to complete its orbit. As a result, Pluto transits can last for several years and signify profound transformation and regeneration. When Pluto transits over important points in your natal chart, it can bring intense experiences that challenge your existing structures and beliefs. This can involve confronting deep-seated fears, undergoing significant personal changes, or experiencing power struggles.
