back to basic astrology TRANSITS by Liz Seddon August 2008
For instance: Jupiter transits are times of expansion, either positive or negative. Saturn transits can be quite difficult and can last about 9 months. It's a time for takingon responsibilities and to learn life's lessons and can be a restrictive and depressing influence. But if the lessons are learnt, wisdom is gained.Uranus transits can mean a time of unexpected loss, change and disruption to the status quo. But it can also bring enlightenment. Its transits last about two years.Neptune transits indicate gradual loss of some kind. Its transits can bring confusion, deception and dissolution into one's life. It is a time to take care when taking drugs of any kind as their adverse effect is more likely with Neptune transits. However, it can also be a period of healing and compassion. Neptune's influence lasts 2-3 years. Pluto transits bring transformation of some kind, often through a deep and painful loss. Powerstruggles, paranoia and obsessions are likely during this period, which lasts 2-3 years. The realisation that there is a need to let go of whatever it is we are obsessively holding on to, brings painful transformation. But this realisation can give inner strength and release tremendous pressure on a psychological level. Chiron transits indicate a deep wounding through some shock, either emotional or physical, which is followed by new a understanding. Enlightenment may bring about the ability to help heal others. Its transits last about 10 months.
A transit occurs when a planet in its orbit forms an aspect to any planet or point in the natal chart. Whenever a transiting planet passes through a house in the natal chart, that house is being activated and particularly when it is on the house cusp.To find out the transits of any given time, look up the date in question in the ephemeris (a special book that lists all the positions of the planets for any given day for the next 50 years or more) and compare their positions to the planets in the natal chart. Traditionally, the difficult transits are the conjunctions, squares and oppositions. The easier transits are the trines, sextiles and some conjunctions where the planets in question are compatible. However, transits can be made more difficult when they 'echo' an aspect in the natal chart or set one off by becoming a conductor. You should also look at planets that are making aspects to each other in the sky on any given day for these can create difficulties on a global level. Saturn/Pluto aspects are particularly known to do this. The most important transits are the ones from the outer planets. Transits from these planets usually indicate major developments. The effects of the transits would depend on the planet in question.
On the left is a bi-wheel of the United Kingdom. The inner wheel is the natal chart and the outer wheel shows the transiting planets for 16th July 2008. We take a look to see if any of the outer planets make an aspect to the ones on the inner wheel. Transiting Neptune (outer wheel) is at 23 degrees of Aquarius and directly opposite in the U.K. chart (inner wheel is Saturn at 23 degrees of Leo. If Saturn is about structure and the status quo and Neptune is about the gradual dissolution then this transit may create insecurity and fear in the people as the structure that has been built up is now gradually being dissolved. The uncertainty that this transit brings can be very unsettling. Transiting Neptune is also on the midpoint of natal Venus/Pluto. If Venus is money and Pluto is borrowed money, then it's easy to see that transiting Neptune is doing a very good job right now of causing chaos and dissolution in this area. This transit will last until the end of 2009. In April, May and June transiting Saturn opposed natal Pluto (testing foundations of the banking system). At the end of July, tr. Saturn moves into the U.K.'s 12th House of chaos and dissolution, where it will stay for the next two years. However, before that in January 2009, tr Pluto will square the UK's Uranus bringing a period of fundamental change and upheaval. It will do so until November 2009, when it will be joined by a conjuction from tr Saturn, making this a very tense time when disruption will be met with resistance from those in authority.
