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
August 7, 2026
Moon back to natal · 25 days away. Capricorn rising · Moon in 4th house.
Solar Return
2026-05-22 19:53 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
First Saturn Return
Peak Dec 15, 2030 · age 29.6. Saturn comes back to where it stood at your birth. This is the cycle's headline: the years the life assembled through your twenties is audited. What was built to please others, or built on no real foundation, tends to crack: a job, a relationship, a city, a self-image. The friction is being asked, often for the first time, to become your own authority and rebuild on your own terms.

Progressions

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

Progressed Sun
Gemini 25°49'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Aries 27°43' · 9th house
The inner monthly weather over years, roughly 2.3 years per sign.
Progressed lunation
Last Quarter
Restructuring. Breaking down what no longer fits the next cycle.

Eclipses ahead

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