Asteria · every clock at once, age 147

All the clocks running.

A life is not one clock. It is several, running at different speeds at once. This reads where you stand on each.

Saturn · the maturation clockThe Third Cycle

You are in your third Saturn cycle, the elder phase, where the work shifts from building to distilling. Saturn's lessons are no longer about climbing but about what the climb was for, and the authority you carry was earned across a whole life.

Jupiter · the expansion clockyear 3 of 12 (first quarter)

The first-quarter stretch of the Jupiter cycle. The early growth meets its first reality check, the place where expansion has to prove it can hold. Opportunity is still here, but it now asks for substance behind the optimism.

The Nodes · the karmic clockmid-cycle

You are in the long stretch between the karmic turning points. The themes of growth and release set at the last nodal return are quietly unfolding. This is steady soul-development time rather than a turning point, the work between the hinges.

Progressed Moon · the emotional clockTaurus

Your Progressed Moon marks an emotional season of settling and stabilizing. The need is for security, comfort, and the tangible. A grounding stretch after motion, learning to rest in what is solid.

Profection · the annual clock4th house year

By annual profection you are in a 4th-house year of home and roots. home, parents, ancestry, land, and the private self behind the public face. a 4th-house year pulls you inward: moves, renovations, family crises or reconciliations, memory, the need to belong somewhere. Look at the sign on your 4th house, its ruler as Lord of the Year, and transits to that planet until your next birthday.

The mini-wheel to the right drops today's transiting planets onto your natal house ring. Each glyph is colour-coded; hover any of them for its sign and degree.

Year of the 4th house · Mercury
Age 147. The active house carries Virgo on its cusp, and the year lord is Mercury: currently transiting Cancer 20°22' in your 1st house (℞).
Progressed Moon

Your inner emotional season

The Progressed Moon moves about one sign every two and a half years. It is the slow inner weather underneath your profection year: the felt season you are actually living in, age 147.33.

The year's loudest weather

Transits to your year lord (Mercury) over the next 12 months. In Hellenistic practice these are the year's most significant interpretive events: the planet ruling the year gets hit, and the year gets re-shaped accordingly.

returns

The cycles you're inside right now

Every planet completes a return when it comes back to where it sat at your birth. The Moon returns monthly, the Sun annually, Saturn every 29.5 years. Each return casts a fresh chart for that moment: a smaller chart inside the natal, shaping the period until the next.

Lunar Return
July 25, 2026
In 12 days. The return Moon lands in your 4th house with Leo rising on the return chart. That shapes the month's emotional weather.
Solar Return
2026-03-14 02:04 UTC
This year's birthday-aligned chart cast at the moment the Sun returned to its natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year's theme.
progressions

Where your inner clock has walked to

Secondary progressions (day-for-a-year) quietly redraw the chart every few years. The Progressed Sun marks the long phase; the progressed lunation phase places both within the inner cycle of becoming and releasing. Your Progressed Moon is read above, right under your profection year.

eclipses ahead

Eclipses that touch your chart

Solar and Lunar Eclipses within roughly the next eighteen months that fall within orb of a natal placement. Eclipses are pulse points: the event a year hangs off of, the activation of whatever the eclipse degree sits on.

retrogrades now

Planets currently retrograde

Bodies that are moving backward through the zodiac as seen from Earth, and the natal house each is currently rolling through. Retrograde isn't a problem; it's an inward pass: a re-encounter with what the planet already knows.
