What are Progressions?
Progressions show your inner growth and maturation. Using the "day-for-a-year" method, each day after birth represents one year of your life.
Your progressed chart reveals how you're evolving internally - your changing needs, perspectives, and personal development over time.
The Progressed Moon
Your Progressed Moon moves through all 12 signs in approximately 28 years, spending about 2.5 years in each sign.

The Clock of Life
Understand your internal evolution and psychological growth with Secondary Progressions.
Secondary Progressions are one of the most profound predictive techniques in astrology. Unlike transits, which show external weather, progressions reveal your internal climate. Based on the "day-for-a-year" formula, the planetary positions for your 30th day of life describe your inner state at age 30.
⏳ Day for a Year
This symbolic time scale means that the slow-moving planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto) barely move in a lifetime by progression. However, the personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars) evolve significantly. The Progressed Sun moves about 1 degree per year, marking a steady evolution of your ego and life purpose.
🌙 The Progressed Moon
The star of the show is the Progressed Moon. It moves quickly, spending about 2.5 years in each sign. This 28-year cycle tracks your emotional maturation. When the Progressed Moon changes sign, your underlying mood, needs, and domestic focus shift dramatically. It's the "minute hand" on the clock of your life.
🔄 Changing Signs
One of the biggest life shifts occurs when a progressed planet changes sign (ingresses). If your natal Sun is in Pisces, you might feel a major shift around age 20 when it progresses into Aries. Suddenly, you become more assertive and independent. These sign changes mark distinct chapters in your personal narrative.
