Example of Transit Reading
Transits follow planets as they move across the sky. The movement of planets can be tracked and the interaction of planets and how they connect to your Natal chart is a prognostic tool that astrologers use to predict external conditions. Transits can signify events and can also manifest emotionally, psychologically, and through circumstantial synchronicity. The effect of the transit depends on many factors, the zodiac signs that the transiting planet is moving through, what natal house the planet is moving through, and what aspects the transiting planet is making to a person’s Natal chart. The movement of personal planets (Sun – Saturn) can arrive and leave quickly whereas slower outer planets (Uranus – Pluto and beyond) can hang around for years.
