Okay, so I really want to learn how to read transits/progressions but its been really hard for me to understand them so I'm just going to list what I understand and don't understand and hopefully someone can help me.
First of all, whats the difference between transits, and progressions, or a progressed chart?
How do I read transits? When i goto astro.com and get a transits/natal chart done, the aspects chart thingy looks the same but it has the planets in different positions on the outside and the green text with the numbers and signs.
Now I never really understood the numbers when it came to understanding aspects, I know that certain numbers or angles mean conjuct/sextile/trine and all that, but I don't know which ones and I don't know what the numbers are on the chart. Like for example it shows
Sun 6 Can 2'31"
Can someone explain to me, what is the 6, the 2 and the 31?
for the transits it shows 28, a really smooshed looking libra sign and a 57
and what are orbs? I never understood what orbs ment at all.
and I'm assuming the position of the green lettered planets on the outside of the circle, indicate what house the planet is transiting though.
But then how do I find out aspects like when people say "saturn is opposing my natal sun" or something like that, how do they know? Is it something like the angles/number that saturn is at during the present are like, the same as the number your natal sun was at?
I know I allready posted a topic on trying to learn aspects, one of you gave me a link to a program or something but when I downloaded it and did my natal chart it was different than the one I got from astro.com and I couldnt figure out why so I was like the hell with it.
But this time hopfully with me being more specific to what I don't understand with your help I can tackle this!
