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 6, 2026
Moon back to natal · 24 days away. Sagittarius rising · Moon in 5th house.
Solar Return
2026-09-15 18:47 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
Opposition
Peak Apr 21, 2029 · age 44.6. Saturn opposes itself again at the centre of life: the reckoning the phrase 'midlife crisis' is pointing at. What you have built becomes fully visible, measured against what you actually wanted. The friction is honest accounting: time is now visibly finite, and the gap between the real life and the intended one has to be faced.

Progressions

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

Progressed Sun
Scorpio 4°13'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Sagittarius 14°29' · 11th house
The inner monthly weather over years, roughly 2.3 years per sign.
Progressed lunation
New Moon
Planting, low visibility, inner reorientation. Old structures composting beneath the surface.

Eclipses ahead

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