Returns ahead

The cycles where a planet returns to its natal position: fresh charts cast on top of the natal shaping their windows.

Lunar Return
July 14, 2026
Moon back to natal · 0 days away. Aquarius rising · Moon in 6th house.
Solar Return
2026-03-25 11:59 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
Third Saturn Return
Peak Sep 15, 2029 · age 87.5. Saturn completes its third full circle. Few lives reach it; those that do meet a quiet, total review. The friction, if it is friction at all, is acceptance. It is the gathering of the whole story into something that can be passed on.

Progressions

Secondary progressions (day-for-a-year): the inner clock that redraws the chart slowly over a life.

Progressed Sun
Gemini 26°33'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Leo 16°47' · 9th house
The inner monthly weather over years, roughly 2.3 years per sign.
Progressed lunation
Crescent
Building. The first pushback against the old, the first real risks on the new direction.

Eclipses ahead

Solar and lunar eclipses within ~18 months that fall within orb of a natal placement.
