Transiting Cycles ~ approximately how long it takes a planet to rotate around the Zodiac
The Personal Planets
The Sun ~ 1 year (1 month in each sign)
The Moon ~ 1 Month ( Every 28 Days)
Mercury ~ Approx. 1 year. ~ Retrogrades 3 times a year for 3 weeks at a time (apply a 3 week shadow on either side)
Venus ~ a little less than 1 year
Mars ~ 2 years (Approx 2 months in each sign)
The Bridge Planets
Jupiter ~ 12 years ( 1 year in each Sign)
Saturn ~ 29 years (Makes 29 years a significant age in a persons life. What happened when you were 29 (give or take a year)? It usually signifies important life lessons)
The Outer Planets ~ They move much slower due to their distance from Earth. Therefore their effects last longer and are more significant over time.
Uranus ~ 84-90 years ( 7-10 years in a sign)
Neptune ~ 171-180 years ( It’s hard to predict an exact orbit)
Pluto ~ Plutos orbit is irregular. Sometimes it is farther away than at other times. Right now it’s ‘closer’ to the Earth and it’s length of time in one sign is shorter than in the last century. Pluto will switch signs and move into Capricorn from Sagittarius at the end of January 2008. Look for big changes in Corporate America!
Outer Planets can represent certain behaviors: Uranus ~ Compulsive; Neptune ~ Escapist; Pluto ~ Obsessive
