Our transit calculator analyzes real-time planetary positions to reveal how cosmic influences affect your relationships, career, finances, and personal growth. Track meaningful transits, retrograde periods, and lunar phases to understand celestial timing for major life decisions.

Current Astrological Transits & Planetary Movements

Transits are the real-time movements of the planets and how they interact with your birth chart. They're the engine behind daily and monthly horoscopes: as transiting planets form aspects to your natal placements, they activate different areas of life — timing the moods, opportunities, and challenges you feel.

Fast vs slow transits

The Moon transits a sign in about two and a half days, colouring day-to-day mood. The Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars move over weeks to months, shaping shorter chapters. Jupiter, Saturn, and the outer planets move slowly, marking the major, years-long themes of your life.

Retrogrades, eclipses, and turning points

Mercury retrograde (a few times a year) is famous for review and revision; Venus and Mars retrogrades revisit love and drive. Eclipses, equinoxes, and solstices are high-leverage turning points. Tracking these against your chart is how astrology times events rather than just describing personality.
