Transit Astrology: Patterns in the Nature of Time
Mon, Aug 17, 4:30 PMTransits speak to the unfolding of our lives over time — our growth, challenges, thresholds, and transformations. Moving at different speeds across the zodiac and forming ever-shifting relationships with our birth charts, they remind us that our story is dynamic, evolving, and never entirely still. How do different planets express themselves as they transit through the signs and aspect our natal placements? What can planetary cycles teach us about timing, initiation, culmination, and integration? And how might major transits — Saturn returns, Pluto passages, Jupiter cycles — reflect important chapters of transformation in our lives? In this gathering, we'll explore the symbolism of transits as astrology's map of unfolding time, the expression of transiting planets through the twelve zodiac signs, and the meaning of major planetary cycles. Whether you want to understand your current transits more deeply or become more familiar with how planetary movements shape our experiences, this is a space for reflection, learning, and shared inquiry. Together we'll: * Explore transit symbolism and its connection to timing, growth, challenge, transformation, and life chapters. * Look at how different transiting planets — from Mercury to Pluto — express themselves through each zodiac sign. * Learn about planetary cycles and the meanings of major transits such as Saturn returns, Uranus oppositions, and Pluto passages. * Discuss outer planet transits and their significance within astrology. * Reflect on how current transits may be activating our birth charts and personal experiences. * Share insights in a welcoming, curious, and supportive group. This meetup is a space for curiosity, reflection, and meaningful conversation — whether you're deeply into astrology or just beginning to explore it. Bring your birth chart and, if possible, charts from friends and/or partners to explore the many ways transits express themselves. 🪐✨ **Guidelines**: – Start: 18:30 sharp (arrive earlier if you like) – Please stay on the topic of astrology – Respect, warmth, and honesty are essential – Kindly RSVP in advance, as we need to confirm with the venue -Please pay for your beverages or food as you order them. PS: We'll be in the terrace of the 2nd floor bar of Motel One. If you can't find us there, go straight to the Terrasse on the 9th floor. Warm regards, Maca, Sara, Tay, and Eric *We collect a 5€ cash contribution on site to support the platform costs.*
