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 29, 2026
Moon back to natal · 16 days away. Virgo rising · Moon in 4th house.
Solar Return
2026-07-29 21:24 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
Opposition
Peak Dec 11, 2031 · age 73.4. Saturn's final opposition brings a wide, clear view of the whole arc. What you built meets the world once more, now mostly through the people and the work you have influenced. The friction is meaning: making peace with the shape of the life, and with what can no longer be changed.

Progressions

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

Progressed Sun
Libra 12°38'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Cancer 16°53' · 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.
