Transits and aspects
The sky doesn't stop moving after you're born. Transits are the dialogue between today's sky and your natal chart.
A transit happens when a planet currently moving through the sky forms a meaningful angle to a planet, point, or sign in your natal chart. That angle is called an aspect.
The five major aspects are: - Conjunction (0°) — fusion. The energies merge. - Sextile (60°) — opportunity. Easy, but you have to act. - Square (90°) — friction. Growth through tension. - Trine (120°) — flow. Things click into place. - Opposition (180°) — confrontation. Two truths in tension.
Slow planets (Saturn, Jupiter, and the outer planets) make transits that last weeks or months — these are the chapters of your life. Fast planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Moon) make transits that pass in days or hours — these are the moods and texture of a week.
Lumina Pulse highlights the tightest active transits to your natal chart in real time so you stop being surprised by your own weather.
