Two examples of what I'm dealing with but at the same time I'm thinking progressed planets have no affect on predictions of the future... But, I am more a follower of traditional/mundane astrology.
Thoughts on these two:
Jupiter conjunction prog. Descendant
and
Saturn conjunction prog. Mercury
Hi,
If you are still reading, transits and progressions are an integral part of astrological interpretation. How can one work with one and discard the other? It doesn't make sense.
Transits are the urge triggers influencing some kind of change, usually through an event. With progressions these events are not only concerned with the specific period in question but introduce circumstances that bring about the life-changing effect
for the future. It will depend upon in which house secondary progr. Descendant is in as to how Jupiter in Scorpio's transit to it will affect the circumstances of that house. Tr. Jupiter will be opposing sec. progr. Ascendant (constitution)in its house, which shouid also be taken into account, meaning involving the individual personally.
Sec. progr. Mercury in Capricorn provides the ability to think rationally, and pragmatically realistic about what is physically occuring. There could be a sharpened concentration evident. The transit of Saturn to it may well present events that are confronting yet which the individual cannot disregard and should accept in order to avoid (chronic) depressive (mental) pessimism taking over.
This attitude may well have to do with what is occuring from tr. Jupiter to prog. Desc-Asc. axis.
Both Jupiter and Saturn are concerned with social structures.
All natal houses ruled by the planets in question will be associated with that which is occuring.
