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 25, 2026
Moon back to natal · 12 days away. Sagittarius rising · Moon in 1st house.
Solar Return
2026-09-20 18:34 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
Closing Square
Peak Jan 10, 2030 · age 82.3. The closing square of the third cycle is a long releasing. Responsibilities, possessions and roles are handed on. The friction is trusting that what you built can stand without you holding it.

Progressions

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

Progressed Sun
Sagittarius 16°33'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Scorpio 11°18' · 11th house
The inner monthly weather over years, roughly 2.3 years per sign.
Progressed lunation
Balsamic
Closure and release. Conscious endings, the pre-dawn quiet before a new cycle.

Eclipses ahead

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