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.

-251 Opposition Mars - Sun

Challenging short-term aspect: You may be impulsive and bold, and, as a result of a lack of forethought, might encounter some problems during this brief transit.

For some, there may be a tendency to be aggressive, ambitious, or bossy if these tendencies are there, making it difficult for others to put up with you. You could have problems with your bosses or people in authority if you lack tact or prudence now.

You might have to put up with a jealous partner. You could more easily have temper tantrums, and might fly off the handle over petty things. Impatience and rushing could make you trip over yourself. You might be in a fighting mood and you could stand up for your rights more readily than usual, but beware of the tendency to be insensitive. Many people will not experience these extremes. Instead, this can be a time of increased activity and it can be difficult to be patient. Positively, you can use this time to gather up more courage to do something you've been wanting to do for some time since you are bolder than usual.

-119 Opposition Mars - Midheaven

Challenging shorter-term aspect: You have lots of vitality and are very active, but you can meet obstacles on the way to your goals. Under this influence you can be aggressive, lacking in diplomacy, pressing on regardless of the consequences of your actions. On the professional front, you may achieve your objectives but only after a lot of struggles or controversy. You might even be bitterly criticized at this time. On the emotional level, family life or life as a couple may well be troubled and stormy. However, you can smooth things out tremendously if you are able to draw upon patience and strategy rather than simply reacting to stressors.

113 Trine Saturn - Sun

Positive long-term aspect: You feel more comfortable with who you are during this transit, and this attitude leads to many fundamental benefits. Because you have a more mature grasp of your own capabilities, you project a more responsible, perhaps serious, and self-assured personality to others. You're open to receiving grounded, practical advice. Your life seems more stable during this time period, and you seem to look at yourself with greater reason and realism. You are less vulnerable to self-delusions.

One of the major sources of stress and guilt in our lives stems from uncertainty--undue stress comes from overestimating our responsibilities and inevitably failing to meet them. Things nag at the back of our minds. However, this Saturn transit offers you a nice dose of realism. You see yourself, especially, more clearly and realistically. This transit tends to reduce the uncertainty, at the very least with regards to our capabilities, and offers a welcome reprieve from feelings of guilt and fear. At this time in your life, you know what your responsibilities are, and you meet them.

You are strong-willed, decisive, and persistent. Your sense of responsibility increases. You are rewarded for the work you have done thanks to your application and efficiency. Few or no major problems--life is quiet and without anything unforeseen, unless other major transits happening now strongly say otherwise. You can have a good job, you're loyal and honest and you are appreciated by your superiors for your qualities. This transit usually lasts several months.

-108 Square Jupiter - Venus

Challenging longer-term aspect: You may want to escape duties, or to overindulge in the pleasures of life during this transit. It's a lazy influence!

Watch for over-spending, vanity, carelessness, and extravagance. It's not that you are these things, but if they are tendencies, this is a time when you may not be as strict with yourself as you usually are. Self-discipline can be a little more difficult now. You can enjoy yourself, and in fact you may be overdue for enjoyment and pleasure, but it's important to remind yourself that excesses today may be costly in the long run. It's also important not to expect too much from yourself, others, and your relationships. There is no point in putting undue pressure on anyone or anything.

-107 Opposition Mars - Pluto

Challenging short-term aspect: This aspect lasts a few days. Your ambitions are strong but perhaps ruling you in all the wrong ways just for now. Stuff that's been bugging you deeply now comes up and takes over. Watch for attempts to push your will. Be kinder to yourself and others and find satisfying ways to work through anger, such as through physical activity.

-69 Square 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.

37 Trine Saturn - Midheaven

Positive longer-term aspect: You are socially successful at this time. The goal you have aimed for is achieved, after many years of work or of rigor and application. Your success is not only thanks to your ability to work or your patience but also because you have learned from experience. You are looked up to and respected, and your confidence in others is well-placed. This is a good time for gaining the respect of others. The conjunction is a pinnacle time for achievement and recognition--this transit marks a climax or turning point.

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.
