Interpretation text by Henry SeltzerCopyright 1999 - 2006 AstroGraph Software, Inc.Powered by: AstroGraph Software866-77-ASTRO (866-772-7876) (info@astrograph.com) The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time. Issues of outer-directed activity are challenging for you at this time. There may be many painful realizations around the areas of how you assert yourself with other people and what exactly is your place in the world of activity and outward drive and ambition. At this time, you may feel that unconscious drives are more powerful than your overt conscious motivations. You may be tempted to "act out" in a wild and independent way that is heedless of consequences. You also have a powerful urge to create at this time, and you need to get in touch with how to use this energy and what it is that you want to accomplish. You may experience frustration in trying to go your own route, independent of what consensus reality surrounding you may dictate. Old wounds in the area of self-assertion and how you make your way in the world may come up at this time, causing you much suffering as you try to find your true path. It is only by going deep within yourself and trusting the intelligence o f your own inner awareness that you can begin to heal these issues inside you, come through this period of chaos and enter a new birth of understanding and trust in your own process. 6/23/15 to 9/9/15, exact 7/17/15 R; exact 8/17/15 Transiting Saturn in sextile with natal Jupiter The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections. Your natural optimism is deserting you these days. Your faith in yourself and your plans or aspirations as well as religious feelings will be emphasized at this time. These ideals may be restricted in some way and may change as a result of this transit. This is a relatively stressful period of time for you, a time to dig in and plug ahead with projects and life goals you have set for yourself. Travel or educational plans are another possibility for restrictions and changes during the course of this transit. You are also more serious than usual during this period of time, and you benefit from taking the time to just relax and enjoy yourself, rather than to struggle 24 hours a day. Your resolve in implementing your dreams will be tested now, and you may well come away from the experience with an altered conception of their real meaning for your life. 6/27/15 to 12/15/15, no date of exact Transiting Pluto in square with natal Neptune The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time. You are in the midst of far-reaching changes at this time. You are all about your sense of spirituality, and your ideals, right now. Feelings of confusion may come up for you at this time, since you are not entirely at home in the outer world of consensus thinking. You may feel a sense of oneness with the universe, or a heightened religious sense of being an integral part of all life. You are also very aware of other people's emotions at this time, possessing an almost psychic sensitivity to their moods. In the process of identifying with others, you may lose sight of your own ego needs for this period of time. This letting go of yourself can be healthy and rewarding, but it can also be distracting, confusing and exhausting. You may feel the urge to get away from reality for a while, escaping into daydreams or other forms of illusion. Beware of a tendency to use drugs for this purpose, since you may be more sensitive than usual to their influence at this time. This is a treme ndously important time in your life, when you are looking more deeply into the meaning of your existence than ever before. You may seek this meaning in the realms of occult studies, for they hold a special appeal to you now, in your strong desire to see beyond the surface illusions of your life. The energy you expend in these almost religious preoccupations during this period is well spent, for the very meaning of your life is the subject of your quest at this time. 8/15/15 to 8/24/15, exact 8/19/15 Transiting Jupiter in sextile with natal Uranus The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections. Feelings of restlessness may come up for you in a big way during this period of time. This transit affects your urge for freedom and spontaneity. You may decide to leave on a trip, or your plans for the future could change rather rapidly at any point during this period, or a planned educational experience may alter. You have a real need to express your individuality and your independence at this time, as well as renewed positive energy toward such uniquely personal goals. You will also likely have new and perhaps powerful spiritual insights during the course of this transit. 8/17/15 to 9/4/15, exact 8/26/15 Transiting Jupiter in conjunction with natal Saturn The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets. An excellent opportunity may be about to present itself to you. This is not in any grand design, but rather in focusing on the everyday tasks that constantly present themselves to you and demand your attention. It is a good time for moving ahead with your long-term career or other goals, also a good time to break free of previous setbacks or restrictions. You may be initiating a new phase of social responsibility at this time. Your progress will be slow but sure, and the long-term benefits of this period cannot be denied in your life. 8/17/15 to 9/4/15, exact 8/26/15 Transiting Jupiter in square with natal Chiron The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time. Your religious philosophy and broad intellectual framework are being subjected to a certain amount of suffering and re-examination. Painful experiences in these areas could lead you to a new outlook on life. Also at this time, you may feel a revitalization of the healing awareness within yourself, possibly in connection to the process of work done in connecting to old wounds, received in earlier developmental stages. When we reconnect with repressed and potentially painful feelings that have been buried away in the depths of our psyche we inhabit these rejected parts of ourselves and become more whole. At this time too, you may connect with a higher purpose in the work that you do, especially if this work involves helping people to heal in some way, and to grow in their own understanding of who they really are. You may take up the study of new-age healing techniques during this period, or in other ways inhabit the vision of wholeness and freedom from old pain that you feel em anates from the intuitive clarity provided by your higher self. 8/23/15 to 4/5/16, exact 10/19/15 R; exact 2/27/16 Transiting Uranus in square with natal Sun The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time. Your whole life may be in a state of flux. Things are changing for you at this time, possibly as a result of some outside agency, a friend or adversary, possibly as a result of your own internal process. At any rate circumstances are forcing something to emerge from somewhere deep inside of you in response to events that may seem to veer out of control. Holding back can only make things crazier. It's time to give up and just go "with the flow". Your feelings of restlessness under this transit may be urging you to let go of some previously cherished structure of your life. There may also be a change in your relationship with your father, or the father within you, at this time. Any sadness or pain surrounding these events will pay off later on, in terms of improved understanding and a fresh start. These challenges are forcing you to grow to a previously unsurpassed level of maturity, through a better understanding of your unique contribution that you can make. 9/12/15 to 11/4/15, exact 10/4/15 R Transiting Chiron in trine with natal Sun The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial. You will likely go through a process of re-aligning your self-concept during this period of time, possibly as a result of re-examination of old wounds. Early childhood episodes that in some way were damaging to your self-concept may be up for a second look, and new experiences related to these early episodes may help to them to appear in a new and better light. These issues could be related to your father, or other significant mentor figure from your past. These figures can be an important part of our ego structure as we go through life. The reason for such painful issues re-emerging into consciousness during this period of time is for the purpose of healing these issues, and finally moving beyond them. You may find when you have gone through this process that you feel yourself coming into a broader view of your existence. Changes that bring to light new facets of your self-image are good for you in the long run, and serve to strengthen your true inner selfconfidence, based o n a more well-rounded view of your life as a whole. 9/20/15 to 10/13/15, exact 10/2/15 Transiting Saturn in inconjunct with natal Mercury The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. This transit has the effect of slowing down and bringing a more concentrated awareness to your communication and mental process. Your verbal and written communication may come slowly, which forces you to be deliberate and to concentrate, but this has the benefit of increasing your focus, and you may wind up accomplishing more. Your thought process is also extremely well grounded and practical at this time. Every decision, every plan you make, has to pass the test of what is it for, in terms of concrete results. Your decision-making process will also come slowly, even painfully, and may tend to be negative or full of doubts about your ability to succeed. But you must try not to be critical or disparaging in your thinking, just be sure of yourself before you go ahead. Greater energy is also available for friends and for thinking about future plans, although you may feel any limits and restrictions that apply more keenly 9/28/15 to 10/19/15, exact 10/9/15 Transiting Saturn in inconjunct with natal Uranus The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. You may feel restrictions to your freedom during this period of time, or feel that you want to be breaking away from something, but find yourself unable to do so. This conflict is unsettling for a time, but it will pass as the transit moves on and eventually diminishes in its influence. What you can take away from the experience is a more focused awareness of your energy for freedom and the search for new horizons, in spite of remaining, and to whatever extent you do remain, in the limitations of your established place in the world. 10/3/15 to 11/11/15, exact 10/24/15 Transiting Saturn in square with natal Saturn The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time. You are reaching a crisis of some kind in your development at this time, and in your movement toward your life's goals. There was a new beginning seven or fourteen years ago that now reaches a turning point. You question whether to go with the changes you feel thrust upon you, or try to hold on to outmoded behavior that has in reality lost its usefulness for you by this time. It is in some way necessary to get on with the evolutionary process you have already begun, although it may be very difficult to do so. By going forward you are acknowledging the wisdom that you find within you, a reliable guide for your steady growth and experience that only you yourself can provide. 10/4/15 to 11/11/15, exact 10/24/15 Transiting Saturn in conjunction with natal Chiron The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets. Your psyche is subject to a stressful and potentially vitalizing time, as the very structure of your life is subject to painful realizations, leading to great changes in your self-concept. At this time also, difficulties with authority figures may emerge, or your relationship with your father may challenging, or the way you live your life in relation to the structure of society itself may be coming to a point where changes that have been in the works for some time are ready to burst forth into your conscious awareness. There may be old wounds with your father, or with the parental care and discipline you received in early childhood, that re-emerge at this time, hopefully for purposes of healing these issues and the potentially debilitating effects that they may have on your life. At this time also, the self-concept that you have had up to now may be changing, leading to a renewed sense of your own healing potential. Through a slow concentrated effort you may begin to connect with a higher purpose in the work that you do at this time, especially if this work involves helping people to heal in some way, and to grow in their own understanding of who they really are. 10/22/15 to 11/3/15, exact 10/28/15 Transiting Jupiter in sextile with natal Ascendant The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.

You are full of enthusiasm for your life and a healthy sense of optimism pervades your thinking. It is a good time to make plans for the future.

You may also begin a significant journey under the influence of this transit. 11/9/15 to 12/16/15, no date of exact Transiting Chiron in trine with natal Ascendant The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial. With Chiron transiting in flowing aspect to your Ascendant, you will likely go through a process of re-aligning your self-concept, possibly as a result of re-examination of old wounds. Chiron is called "the wounded healer" because it represents the archetype of imperfection and loss which when integrated leads to compassion and understanding of others' suffering, and provide the ability to serve as a helper and a healer for others. You have a great deal compassion and empathy for other people during this period, and may choose to launch yourself into the helping professions, such as a counselor or massage therapist, or you may experience a powerful meeting, in which such a healing presence comes into your life during this period of time. Early childhood episodes that in some way were damaging to your self-concept may be up for a second look, during this period, and recent experiences related to these early episodes may help to them to appear in a new and better light. It is g ood to make the effort to connect yourself consciously with any painful events that may be buried in your unconscious, so that these will no longer have so much power over you. 11/19/15 to 2/27/16, exact 12/5/15; exact 2/9/16 R Transiting Jupiter in square with natal Mars The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time. You're something of a high flyer these days. Jupiter expands whatever it comes into contact with, and in this case it's your assertiveness and animal passion. You are so extremely confident, even full of yourself, that it is possible to overdo. You may need to temper your confidence with just a bit of pessimism, for balance, during this period. You should avoid risk taking and playing the odds in all kinds of situations; gambling may be a temptation during this transit. You think you can walk on water, and you may be able to pull it off. You benefit by being quietly optimistic and high minded, and then you may well be on the path to good luck and great success in your endeavors. During this transit, you will find you have much greater energy than usual, and your renewed sense of optimism may give you great clarity of purpose. You will likely find contact with the opposite sex quite pleasant and rewarding during this period of time. You may have so much physical energy that yo u need to seek an outlet for it in activity such as sports or getting down and cleaning up that old plumbing problem that has been lurking. Any activities that you engage in during this time will be very productive for you in long-term results, provided that you keep in balance and refrain from overdoing it. 11/19/15 to 1/30/16, no date of exact Transiting Uranus in inconjunct with natal Ascendant The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. Transits to the Ascendant affect self-expression, including your creative potential and your sense of well-being. Your physical vitality is also affected, and your attitude to life in general.

Transits to Pluto affect your urge for self-transformation and regeneration. Complexes and compulsive behavior may come up for you during this period of time. You may need to confront hidden parts of yourself that have been active in an unconscious behavior pattern for many years, during this period of time, and bring them to your conscious awareness so that they can be dealt with. Such a bringing to light of old wounds and buried parts of your psyche is incredibly cathartic and healing. You will undoubtedly have new spiritual as well as personal insights as a result of the material coming into your consciousness during this period of time. 12/19/15 to 1/6/16, exact 12/28/15 Transiting Saturn in trine with natal Venus The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial. For this period of time, you may feel somewhat isolated and involved with your own internal issues. You also will find your relationships in the outside world have a practical side to them during this period of time. It is an excellent time to take stock, as Saturn slows down your process of relating to others. You may need to pay closer attention to these areas of your life, even extending to your values, aesthetic and otherwise. Your values represent what you relate to in your environment. If you work with an artistic medium, you may establish new approaches to your work quite successfully during this period. It is important to slow down in these areas in order to focus on what is most important to you in the long run. 12/21/15 to 2/8/16, exact 1/19/16 Transiting Chiron in trine with natal Sun The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.

This period of time with Pluto transiting your Ascendant is significant for you. It is a time when many factors in your life could alter. Because Pluto symbolizes the process of decay and change, death and re-birth, significant life changes are almost certain to result. These changes can be difficult, since most of us tend to cling to our older and more established ways of being, and resist the pressure of the new with all our might. But these changes are inevitable, and perhaps necessary for your growth as a human being. Sometimes these life changes will manifest more on an internal level, and sometimes outer events may bring them. These events unfold over time. Often, too, a strong Pluto transit means confronting parts of yourself that you would rather not face, and you may be tempted to evade this encounter. But running away from the battle will not help, for eventually you must admit the dark unknown and integrate it with your conscious self, if you are to move towards wh oleness and peace of mind. 1/3/16 to 1/24/16, exact 1/13/16 Transiting Saturn in sextile with natal Neptune The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.

You may feel restrictions threatening to your cherished illusions, which may have the effect of redefining the very ideals by which you live. You are finding your dreams more grounded in reality than you might have been ready for, but also made more concrete, and something is therefore gained as well as lost. This conflict may be unsettling, or it may be an exhilarating release of outworn patterns. What comes up for you now is in your ultimate best interest. It is said that no transit is experienced before you are ready for it, whether or not you realize this in the present moment. 2/3/16 to 3/14/16, exact 2/17/16 Transiting Saturn in trine with natal Pluto The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.

You may have to confront issues of power, control and authority, either in the workplace or in terms of authority in your personal life. You are more purposeful and serious regarding your goals right now, and find that the way that your life has been structured up to now must change. This is not a time for escapist fantasies, or rationalizations; this is a time for facing squarely the past and its implications for your continued growth in the present. 2/4/16 to 7/8/16, no date of exact Transiting Pluto in opposition with natal Sun The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge. This is an extended period when many factors in your life could radically alter, because Pluto, symbolizing the process of decay and change, death and re-birth, is making its force strongly felt.

But these changes being forced upon you at this time a re inevitable, and perhaps necessary for your growth as a human being. Sometimes these life changes will manifest more on an internal level, and sometimes outer events may bring them, such as a death in your immediate family, or some other radical alteration of your circumstances.

You also have a powerful urge to create at this time, and you need to get in touch with how to use this energy and what it is that you want to accomplish. You may experience frustration in trying to go your own route, independent of what consensus reality surrounding you may dictate.

You have more energy than usual, and benefit from channeling it into constructive physical activities such as sport or dance. You may feel restless and desire to make changes in the way that you direct your life's actions toward your goals.

Issues may arise with important female figures in your life, perhaps your mother or a significant other, as well as with the feminine side of your own nature. Something deep inside you, at the roots of your being, is going through a process of renewal at this time. There may be old issues that have been locked away in your unconscious for a long time that you are forced to acknowledge during this period, perhaps there are changes in the way you have habitually and unconsciously lived your emotional life up to now, a way of being that is no longer compatible with who you have become at a deep level. It can also be a time of great joy as you break with the past and come into the glow of a new emotional comprehension of yourself. There may be painful feelings from the past that reassert themselves at this time, and it may also be that relationship issues come to the surface, or perhaps other security needs such as a safe and cozy home life that may be challenged or otherwise changing during this period. The ultimate purpose for these issues arising is to heal them and to abate their influence for negative emotion in your life. Something deep inside of you is adjusting to a new understanding, and you can move into it gracefully if you can let go of the past. 4/28/16 to 7/31/16, no date of exact Transiting Neptune in inconjunct with natal Neptune The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. This transit renews your sense of spirituality, and your ideals. Feelings of confusion may also come up for you during this transit, while this aspect of transiting Neptune to its natal position is in effect.

It can be a confusing time, as illusions and self-concepts, which may be the very motivating factors by which you live, are called into question and a new basis for re-imaging the fundamental concepts of your life may be emerging. Your imagination is very active now, for Neptune is the planet of image and illusion. Be sure to weigh carefully the ideas that come up for you at this time. 5/16/16 to 10/15/16, exact 7/20/16; exact 8/7/16 R Transiting Uranus in square with natal Moon The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.

Your own unacknowledged desire for change may be bringing these feelings up in you as a prompt for action, even if they seem to be coming up through the medium of an external agency. Although these changes may seem disruptive they usually work out for the best in the overall process of your life development.
