Solunars by Aldebaran Sidereal Academy

Welcome back, cool. It's good that you're looking at these things. (I'm moving it from the Natal section to the Transits section.)

Transits to natal and SSR, using all multiples of 45°, have long been established as a baseline of predictive work, exactly with the orb you indicated. The other aspect types are more suspicious... but the actual looking you are doing is the key to learning these things. (Your remarks on Demi-Solar are interesting, I've probably never even looked at this and might add a few spot checks of key planets like Moon next month.)

One piece of advice on aspects like this example: Most of the time, transits to slow planets in the Lunar Return will mean the same aspect to current transits. In other words, transiting Venus trine SLR Jupiter-Neptune recently probably occurred on a day that transiting Venus, transiting Jupiter, and transiting Neptune were all in aspect in space, affecting everybody and not unique to your chart. These are still valid aspects, of course - and notice that the event you described wasn't an individual event but a mass, collective event. I suggest that the world was experiencing Venus-Jupiter-Neptune, and it marked this concert.

I mention this because the phenomenon might lead you to wrong conclusions. I'm intrigued by what you say about transits to the SLR because, over the years, I haven't even been able to determine that transits to SLR angles have any value (some astrologers like to use that as timing within the month; I just don't see it). It's possible I missed something, or possible that you are mostly noticing transit-to-transit aspects that just happen to be to SLR planets, too.

This would also explain the trine. Generally, transiting trines and sextiles don't work (or their effect is so subtle that one might as well say they don't work). They don't move anything to happen. But transit-to-transit trines and sextiles are quite effective.

Transit mercury in square aspect to solar neptune: This is the transit I am currently experiencing, as you can see at this very moment I am talking about spritual matters with you guys, that is, sharing astrology information.

Transit Jupiter to solar return moon in opposition aspect: getting a job

Transit pluto in square aspect to demi-solar venus: a girl in my company got really mad at me, cursing me and throwing things on me.

Great examples.

Again, welcome back.

BTW, it looks like transiting Uranus conjunct your Midheaven is working well for you. It as it moves across your Moon and Sun in the next couple of years, it should provide continuing opportunities for discovery.

I have, at great length. They're pathetically useless.

the weakest among them is certainly 30 degree transit

I agree if, by "the weakest," you mean "also worthless."

Thanks for erecting this sidereal astrology platform so that we can talk about predictive techniques that actually "work", giving precise timing and infallible result, and avoid those misleading tropical non-sense that makes your head blow up.

Of course, the exact transit techniques you are discussing, including the use of every aspect in sight, are routne for Tropical astrology - so one can't call this a Sidereal, un-Tropical technique.

There's a huge difference between observing something (such as 150° aspects) and looking at aspects statistically, which Jim has done.

Of course, unless you are observing not just transits but progressions and solunar charts, you really can't tell if what you are looking at is the result of one transiting aspect, or if it's something else entirely.

Yeah, getting a "good" astrology program on your phone or tablet is nice for checking transits, but transits don't tell the whole story. As you continue your studies, you're going to want to get a good calendar program so you can add alerts for progressions as well as transits.

Transits crossing SLR planets do show in events, and transits crossing SSR planets show as well, and I think more strongly. SSR planets also show progressions.

You mean the same yesterday when transiting Jupiter was 0°00' from opposite your progressed Moon? (If the money came in to you, it's a transiting Jupiter matter, not a natal Jupiter matter.)

coolcoolwcr wrote: Fri Jun 08, 2018 7:06 pm Great observation there! I am impressed. This event happened at about 12:50 of 20180608.

Then let me amend the orb: It had peaked at 0°00' in the 24 hours before and was 0°08' at the time you name: transiting Jupiter 19°54' Libra opposite progressed Moon at 20°02' Aries.

And at the time transiting mercury was also 0°00' from solar return jupiter in 2nd house.

More or less. At 12:30 PM AWST on June 8, Mercury at 24°58' Taurus was 0°06' from quincunx your SSR Jupiter at 25°04' Libra.

As for transiting jupiter opposite my progressed moon, my astrology software shows that they are 0°11' degree apart at the moment I received money.(Probably your astrology software use a slight different ephemeris than mine, so that it shows a exact aspect ) Not very precise timing but I think it's also a valid indicator of receiving money.

It was a little closer than that (unless I've misunderstood the time zone you live under) and exact within about half a day. That's plenty good! (Especially since it was transiting Jupiter.)

coolcoolwcr wrote: Fri Jun 08, 2018 7:19 pm It might be the combined effect of the two indicators. You know how things tends to multiply when 2 astrology indicators added together. That might have been the biggest amount of pocket money I've received in years.

All the more reason to think it is the consequence of a really major transit - by an outer planet - rather than a flitting blip on the radar by a really fast planet.
