When looking at transits, is it more effective to use the progressed chart, or the natal chart, and why??
Personally, I have seen more accuracy with Transits to Natal placements. [But I know astrologers who swear by Transits to Progressed.]
I see a lot of value in Progressed planets 'transiting' natal planets. For example when a progressed planet makes a natal aspect become 'exact.' If you have Venus square Pluto, with a 6 Degree orb, and Venus finally progesses to an exact square----that is significant. If a transit happens to a placement that is also hitting by progression, then it is more impactful, in my opinion.

I use both but I rely more on transits to the natal chart. Progressions are more personal since they're determined by your birthdate. Each person has a unique set of progressions at any given time, unlike with transits which can be universal by the generation you're born into.
But while progressions reveal how your potential will unfold based on your natal chart, transits tell you about the energy around you. So if you're progressions have you feeling one way, but transits produce a different kind of energy, you might be in for a hard landing. I learned that the hard way. Progressions can complement transits and help you take advantage of the energy a transit is delivering to you. But I'd never look at progressions alone without the transits.
I like to see data when it is available. So I post this in case it might interest you. http://astrologynewsservice.com/articles/unique-study-links-venus-to-romantic-choices-people-make/
