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 21, 2026
Moon back to natal · 8 days away. Sagittarius rising · Moon in 10th house.
Solar Return
2026-05-01 13:02 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
Second Saturn Return
Peak Apr 14, 2028 · age 59.0. Saturn returns a second time, at the threshold of elderhood. The life's central structures are weighed for what they were truly for: work, family, place. The friction is consolidation: deciding what to carry forward, what to lay down, and what your authority is now in service of.

Progressions

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

Progressed Sun
Cancer 6°04'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Sagittarius 9°09' · 4th house
The inner monthly weather over years, roughly 2.3 years per sign.
Progressed lunation
Gibbous
Refinement. Perfecting the work, with culmination in sight.

Eclipses ahead

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