Secondary Progression Chart

Secondary progression chart

Secondary progressions This progression involves moving the natal chart forward one day for each year of a person's life.

How long do secondary progressions last?

Secondary progressions, commonly known simply as “progressions,” use a day-for-a-year formula. The days used are those immediately following your birth. This means that whatever planetary aspects and influences were active 10 days after your birth will influence you when you are 10 years old.

How do you read secondary progressions?

Interpretation of secondary progressions usually focuses on the personal planets, i.e. the sun, moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars, because the remaining planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) progress so little during a younger person's life and rarely function as triggers because they hardly change position.

How fast does the Ascendant progress?

How often does the progressed Ascendant change?
