Transits of the Major Planets

The transits of the outer planets, in other words those furthest from the Sun, have the greatest influence and determine the most important events in life. The more distant a planet and the longer it takes on its path around the Sun, the more lasting are its effects. You might see these longer-term transits below for months.

The minor transits, with their rapid movement, only produce fleeting states of mind, or actions of less significance in everyday life. These will appear in your transit report below for a few days.

The information given below is not valid in isolation. One must also take into account the signs of the Zodiac and the houses where these aspects are found. The position of the planets and their aspects in the natal chart must also be taken into account.

The gift of foretelling by the stars requires a lot of work, but also a lot of tact and human feeling. Never make fatal predictions, as everyone can get things wrong.

-263 Opposition Jupiter - Moon

Challenging aspect: Depending on your character and life situation, you can be especially optimistic or emotionally self-indulgent at this time. Some of us experience swings from optimism to self-pity. Problems rooted in the past and with family and early childhood can surface, and productivity may be adversely affected as you nurse your wounds. There can be a tendency to put on weight or to be extravagant. If this is the case, recognize that it's a sign that you are looking for emotional satisfaction in the wrong places. You may be questioning the amount of support you are receiving from others. You might be setting others up on some level to prove to yourself how unsupported you are. We all need to feel emotionally supported, and this transit makes us more aware of that need. It may be best to face what is lacking in your life--that which is causing you to feel unhappy.

You can be a little eccentric, perhaps acting out or showing off to draw attention on yourself. You may be generous, but this generosity might be abused. You may want to live in more luxury or to pamper yoursel. Your family may not approve of your behavior, and conflicts can result.

208 Sextile Venus - Jupiter

Positive aspect: Good period. You are in a good mood, business should go well, love life relatively smooth, and your spirits are good. You are appreciating the finer things in life and expanding your horizons. Generally, you are in good humor and others seem to see you in a good light. You are generous with yourself and others now.

-190 Opposition Venus - Uranus

Challenging short-term aspect: Not always pleasant surprises in store. Not a good time to choose a new look or treatment. You may feel unnerved by someone or a circumstance, especially when it comes to your social or love life. Values may clash. You might not appreciate someone's erratic behavior. Your own restlessness and inner need for change can stimulate odd attractions and unusual desires.

156 Conjunction Jupiter - Midheaven

Positive longer-term aspect: A time to make progress and achieve what you intend on the professional level. You know how to grasp your opportunities. You may succeed more through the support of friends and colleagues than by your own personal qualities at this time. Obstacles may fall out of your way. Your reputation gets a nice boost. A time of more meaningful work or sense of purpose.

-149 Opposition Pluto - Venus

Challenging aspect: Your emotional life may well be stormy during the months of this transit. You may have difficulty with sexual understanding with a partner. You could think you are no longer loved and that therefore there's someone else, or something similar, which can cause fits of jealousy or frustrating moments.

In general, this can be a sign of disintegration or breakdown, but a lot of couples can survive by picking up the pieces, and if so, the relationship transforms to a new level.

This major long-term transit challenges you to find meaning in your life through romantic connections and partnerships or special projects and hobbies. You now must uncover a new layer or level to your life -- one that goes more deeply than you have heretofore experienced. Sometimes this transit is associated with divorce or separation, and sometimes new relationships begin. Other times, the attitude towards partnership undergoes a major transformation. You may become quite obsessed with your commitments and partner during this time, or you may experience Pluto through your partner. Manipulative and controlling behaviors may be displayed or experienced through partners, for example.

You must be especially wary of resisting change and holding onto negative attachments. This transit may be a signal that it is time to let go of destructive attachments and connections, and resisting this process is likely to do more harm than good. Relationships begun at this time may be very complicated and ultimately challenging, so be sure to think before making drastic changes in your relationships at this time. There may be some problems with money during this transit. Poor spending decisions made to date can come to a head and you may need to face up to their reality. By the end of the transit, you should have a renewed sense of worth, although getting to that point may not be entirely pleasant.

108 Conjunction Uranus - Midheaven

Positive aspect: You may have changes in your work, which will be to your advantage. You can certainly gain more money through promotion, or you are freer in the work you do. Feeling a little more detached about your reputation now can be beneficial since others see you as cool and happening.

-90 Square Jupiter - Saturn

Challenging longer-term aspect: Some re-structuring of your life and your business goals is now in order. You may be looking for new challenges, possibly because you are forced to do so (because things are not going exactly as you had planned). You have a desire to grow and expand, but your attitude is cautious. Perhaps what you want to do is not exactly feasible at this time. It is a better time to breathe new life into old plans rather than to strike out with a new plan altogether. Some caution is needed with your finances, although you might get some help from older or more stable individuals at this time. Something is telling you to push forward and to expand and grow, but with a close eye on your limitations. Take steps to grow, but don't overextend yourself at this time or you are bound to face frustrations.

-53 Square Saturn - Neptune

Challenging aspect: You may feel at odds with your fears and phobias, having a difficult time understanding yourself and coming to terms with bad habits, anxieties, and addictions. You might often have the inexplicable feeling that something awful will happen, and if so, it's something to examine. Old bad habits may resurface for resolve. There is likely to be some form of disillusionment happening now, with previously held beliefs, and possibly also with others who don't seem very sympathetic or compassionate for the time being. Strategies: Simplify, tune out distractions, avoid bigger decision-making since you may be a little discouraged as you don't see the full picture yet. Consider that a low period is usually followed by a high one. It's a cycle, not a dead-end.

38 Trine Saturn - Lilith

Positive aspect: Time for stock-taking, be it on the professional, personal, family, or emotional level. You see things clearly during this transit, and this helps you face up to your responsibilities, especially the things you have more-or-less rejected until now. You are inclined to take your life in hand as an adult and responsible person, with no or few illusions. You accept what hurts you and face up to your difficulties, and this benefits you even if at times it feels a little strict or uncomfortable.

About the Transit Report

This report is designed to show and interpret transits that are within orb on a particular day at the time of day of your visit. The table reflects transits in effect at the specified time in GMT. Some influences come and go on the same day, while others can stick with you for days, months, and even years.

Why do values and orbs change for a particular day? This is because transits keep moving--they don't freeze from midnight one day to midnight the next. Some faster-moving planets, especially the Moon, move into or out of orb on the same day. The above transits are a snapshot at the current time of day.

What do the numbers next to the transit names mean?

The column entitled "Worth" assigns a positive or negative value to each transit. These numbers also appear next to the transit interpretations and are part of a weighting system designed to quantify the relative strength of an aspect. The larger the number, the stronger we expect that transit to be.

With this weighting system, a positive value/worth is considered harmonious, and a negative value is considered challenging. Factors that determine the Worth value are the nature of the planets, aspects, and the orb of influence.

For example, a weight (or worth) of 35 suggests the transit is a harmonious influence of moderate strength. A weight of 420 indicates the transit is quite strong and harmonious. If you see a worth of -10, the transit is relatively weak and disharmonious.

On the other hand, "Orb" values are the exact distance in degrees away from a transit's exactitude. The larger the orb value, the weaker an aspect is. Put another way, the larger the orb value, the greater the distance an aspect is from being exact. An orb of 0°00' is exact, and an aspect with an orb of less than 1 degree (that is, from 0°00' to 0°59') is considered strong. Thus the smaller the orb value, the stronger and more influential the aspect is.
