<< Run the Charts

Crunch the Numbers

You've just assembled a rather daunting plethora of charts, and each of them is screaming information at you, information you're compelled to consume all at once, using every arcane astrological technique you've ever read about.

Are we panicking yet?

Relax.  We won't even use most of this stuff, any more than you use every tool in your garage to fix a broken window.

But how do you determine which tools to use?  Here's the approach that's served me well for many years now.  It may initially seem complicated, and may not work at all for people who have no Virgo planets.  But you might as well give it a try.

First, I fill out a graph with the current important major aspects to the natal chart from secondary progressions, solar arc progressions, and transits. 

Here's a graph I adapted from my teacher for this use.  Go ahead - print it out and adapt it for your use. text version | PDF version

Here's an example of a completed graph.
