Your Planetary Transits

Showing All Transits for a Given Planet

Back to
Contents
The Show all world transits between ... and ... button gives the dates and times for just the two planets selected (inner and outer planet, or transiting and natal planet). You can also get the same information not just for one pair of planets but for a set of pairs of planets, where one planet in the pair is fixed. The examples below illustrate this. The start and end dates can be anything, but a long period may produce an output which is too much for the textbox, in which case the report will stop.


First, world transits, and we look at the transits in 2003 for Saturn. Here is the setup and the start of the output obtained after selecting Saturn as the outer planet and clicking on the Show all transits between Saturn and other planets button:

The entire output is here.

The program says that although Mercury and Saturn usually form an exact aspect every month or so, occasionally they form a close but not exact aspect, as happened on 2003-09-20, where the sextile reaches 0°6' but no closer. This is illustrated by the following graphic (produced by the Planetary Aspects and Transits software):

The Mercury-Saturn transit table tells us that on March 13, 2003, one week before the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the Sun was exactly square to Saturn. Here is the planetary situation for March 11, 2003, showing that actually the Sun formed a T-square with Saturn and Pluto:


Now personal transits, and we look at the personal transits of Friedrich Nietzche in January 1883. Here is the setup and the start of the output obtained after selecting Mercury as the transiting planet and clicking on the Show all transits by transiting Mercury button:

The entire output is here. It shows that transiting Mercury formed twelve exact aspects to Nietzsche's natal planets in January 1883, as follows:

  • January 2, exact square to natal Sun
  • January 3, exact square to natal Pluto
  • January 5, exact sextile to natal Jupiter
  • January 6, exact trine to natal Mars
  • January 8, exact conjunction to natal Saturn
  • January 9, exact sextile to natal Uranus
  • January 10,exact trine to natal Mercury
  • January 13, exact sextile to natal Moon
  • January 22, exact conjunction to natal Neptune
  • January 24, exact trine to natal Sun
  • January 25, exact sextile to natal Pluto
  • January 30, exact sextile to natal Pluto

Twelve exact aspects within 31 days by one transiting planet to every other planet except one (in this case, Venus) is extremely rare. As to what was happening in Nietzche's life at this time see Examples from the Life of Friedrich Nietzsche.
