Personal cycles · Jeff Goldblum
Profections, returns, progressions, eclipses, and retrograde windows on one timeline.
Asteria · every clock at once, age 73
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 Third Cycle
You are in your third Saturn cycle, the elder phase, where the work shifts from building to distilling. Saturn's lessons are no longer about climbing but about what the climb was for, and the authority you carry was earned across a whole life.
Jupiter · the expansion clockyear 1 of 12 (opening)
The opening years of a Jupiter cycle. The growth begun at the last return is taking shape, and the mood is optimistic and forward-leaning. A good stretch to build on the expansion you reached for, while the door is still open.
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 clockVirgo
Your Progressed Moon marks an emotional season of refinement and tending. The need is for order, usefulness, and improving the daily. A quieter, work-focused stretch of putting things right.
Profection · the annual clock2nd house year
By annual profection you are in a 2nd-house year of worth and resources. money, possessions, income, and the quieter question underneath: what do you believe you deserve? a 2nd-house year sorts resources, pricing, debt, gifts, and the nervous system around scarcity or abundance. spending and saving both tell the truth. Look at the sign on your 2nd house, its ruler as Lord of the Year, and transits to that planet until your next birthday.

New · the seed.
The mini-wheel to the right drops today's transiting planets onto your natal house ring. Each glyph is colour-coded; hover any of them for its sign and degree.
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 73.88.

year-lord transits
The year's loudest weather
Transits to your year lord (Sun) 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
September 18, 2026
In 7 days. The return Moon lands in your
3rd house with
Virgo rising on the return chart.
That shapes the month's emotional weather.
Solar Return

This year's birthday-aligned chart cast at the moment the
Sun returned to its natal degree. The Solar Return ASC
and MC frame the year's theme.

Opposition
Peak April 21, 2027 ·
age 74.5. Saturn's final opposition brings a wide, clear view of the whole arc. What you built meets the world once more, now mostly through the people and the work you have influenced. The friction is meaning: making peace with the shape of the life, and with what can no longer be changed.
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.

Where your inner self has slowly walked to since birth.
The Progressed Sun spends about 30 years per sign; sign
changes mark the chart's major life-phase boundaries.

eclipses ahead
Eclipses that touch your chart
Solar and Lunar Eclipses within roughly the next eighteen months that fall within orb of a natal placement. Eclipses are pulse points: the event a year hangs off of, the activation of whatever the eclipse degree sits on.
