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 4, 2026
Moon back to natal · 22 days away. Taurus rising · Moon in 12th house.
Solar Return
2026-08-09 06:11 UTC
Sun back to natal degree. The Solar Return ASC and MC frame the year ahead.
Saturn cycle
Opening Square
Peak Dec 3, 2029 · age 66.3. The opening square of the third cycle asks for one more deliberate act of building: usually a legacy, a body of work, a way of being useful that does not depend on a title. The friction is choosing to keep shaping a life rather than only maintaining it.

Progressions

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

Progressed Sun
Libra 17°54'
About thirty years per sign: sign changes mark major life-phase boundaries.
Progressed Moon
Leo 14°18' · 6th 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.
