What Is An Astrology Transit Chart?

A natal chart, commonly known as a “birth chart”, is a symbolic map of the sky at the exact moment you were born. It captures where the Sun, Moon, and planets were positioned, and how their energies were arranged around you as you entered the world. Rather than predicting your future, a natal chart reflects your inner wiring, including your instincts, motivations, gifts, challenges, and the themes you are here to explore.

Astrology reads this chart as a language of meaning. Each planet represents a part of you, each sign shows how that part expresses itself, and each house describes where in life it tends to unfold. When woven together, your natal chart becomes a compassionate mirror that helps you understand yourself, your patterns, and your path with clarity and care.

A transit chart shows the current positions of the planets in the sky and how they interact with your natal chart over time. While your natal chart remains constant, transits are always moving, reflecting the changing rhythms, cycles, and themes you may experience as life unfolds.

Transit astrology does not predict events or outcomes. Instead, it highlights periods of growth, reflection, activation, or integration. By observing how today’s planetary movements touch your natal placements, transits offer context for emotions, decisions, and shifts you may already be sensing. They help you understand timing, patterns, and the larger cycles at work, so you can meet each phase with awareness, patience, and intention.
