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 18, 2026
Moon back to natal · 5 days away. Gemini rising · Moon in 4th house.
Solar Return
2026-03-28 15:38 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
Opening Square
Peak Dec 12, 2028 · age 37.7. The opening square of the second cycle pushes you to commit to what the Return rebuilt. The choices made around thirty now demand follow-through. The friction is between momentum and the patient, unglamorous work of making a thing genuinely solid.

Progressions

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

Progressed Sun
Taurus 12°31'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Capricorn 3°30' · 6th house
The inner monthly weather over years, roughly 2.3 years per sign.
Progressed lunation
Disseminating
Sharing what was learned. Teaching, mentoring, integration.

Eclipses ahead

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