Profections, returns, progressions, eclipses, and retrograde windows on one timeline.
Asteria · every clock at once, age 11
All the clocks running.
A life is not one clock. It is several, running at different speeds at once. This reads where you stand on each.
Saturn · the maturation clockThe First Saturn Square
Saturn has reached its first square to where it began, around age seven, your earliest real encounter with limits and consequence. The world starts teaching that effort matters and that you cannot have everything at once. A small rehearsal for everything Saturn will ask later.
Jupiter · the expansion clockyear 11 of 12 (closing)
The closing stretch before the next Jupiter return. The current cycle of growth is winding down, making room for the new one about to begin. A good time to take stock of how far you have come since the last return, twelve years back.
The Nodes · the karmic clockmid-cycle
You are in the long stretch between the karmic turning points. The themes of growth and release set at the last nodal return are quietly unfolding. This is steady soul-development time rather than a turning point, the work between the hinges.
Progressed Moon · the emotional clockPisces
Your Progressed Moon marks an emotional season of dissolving and dreaming. The need is for rest, compassion, and the boundless. A soft, impressionable stretch of letting go before the cycle renews.
Profection · the annual clock12th house year
By annual profection you are in a 12th-house year of retreat and release. retreat, dreams, the unseen, institutions, and what must end before the next 1st-house year begins. a 12th-house year is quieter on the surface and louder underneath: therapy, hospitals, spiritual practice, endings, solitude. Look at the sign on your 12th house, its ruler as Lord of the Year, and transits to that planet until your next birthday.

Progressed Moon
Your inner emotional season
The Progressed Moon moves about one sign every two and a half years. It is the slow inner weather underneath your profection year: the felt season you are actually living in, age 11.2.

year-lord transits
The year's loudest weather
Transits to your year lord (Moon) over the next 12 months. In Hellenistic practice these are the year's most significant interpretive events: the planet ruling the year gets hit, and the year gets re-shaped accordingly.

returns
The cycles you're inside right now
Every planet completes a return when it comes back to where it sat at your birth. The Moon returns monthly, the Sun annually, Saturn every 29.5 years. Each return casts a fresh chart for that moment: a smaller chart inside the natal, shaping the period until the next.
Lunar Return
July 20, 2026
In 7 days. The return Moon lands in your
6th house with
Taurus rising on the return chart.
That shapes the month's emotional weather.

Opposition

age 15.7. Saturn opposes its birth place in mid-adolescence. Authority becomes something to push against rather than simply obey: parents, school, the handed-down shape of a life. The friction is a young identity testing which of those structures are actually its own.
progressions
Where your inner clock has walked to
Secondary progressions (day-for-a-year) quietly redraw the chart every few years. The Progressed Sun marks the long phase; the progressed lunation phase places both within the inner cycle of becoming and releasing. Your Progressed Moon is read above, right under your profection year.

The Progressed Sun spends about 30 years per sign; sign

retrogrades now
Planets currently retrograde
Bodies that are moving backward through the zodiac as seen from Earth, and the natal house each is currently rolling through. Retrograde isn't a problem; it's an inward pass: a re-encounter with what the planet already knows.
