Transits

Transits are the current movement of planets in relation to the natal chart. They show which themes are being activated now.

How to read them in a chart

Read a transit as a contact between a current planet and the natal chart. First identify the transiting planet: Saturn compresses and formalizes, Jupiter expands, Uranus disrupts, Neptune dissolves, and Pluto intensifies. Then see which natal planet or point is being touched.

The house of the natal planet shows the life area involved. The house of the transiting planet shows where the pressure or opportunity comes from. Repeated passes often describe a process: the first pass raises the theme, the second deepens it, and the third helps integrate the decision.

Common mistake

The mistake is to read a transit as a guaranteed event. A transit shows timing and the quality of activation, but the exact form depends on the natal chart, age, choices, and real circumstances.

A practical question: which natal theme is being activated now, and does it ask for action, patience, completion, or revision?
