ok this may sound stupid but my progressed pluto, saturn, uranus, neptune, jupiter, north node and lilith are all about 1 degree behind there natal house positions example: progressed pluto 1 degree scorpio natal 2 degrees scorpio. Ummm... do the planet in a progressed chart move backwards? Is it just my chart or is it common for the outer planets to be close to there natal postions?

Salisa, your progressed chart is just your natal chart, as a dynamic chart moving, "a year for a day" - that is to say, take your natal chart, and add 30 calender day. Look at this later chart when you're 30. The themes of the planets, which signs they're in, and the aspects they make to each other. The aspects found on all 3 levels will be the ones that play out. It's also a measure of your progress through the esoteric lessons of the signs. A personal planet at the end of it's sign in the natal chart, has a pretty good shot of passing out of that sign, completely through another one, and well into the next one.
This is good progress in a lifetime!

Anyway, progressed planets or charts are very important in predictive astrology as well. Aspects found in and to the progressed chart seem to have more to do with outside influences and experiences the person confronts, less to do with the person's character. That remains the domaine of the natal chart, & transits.

The 3 levels of aspects to look for in predictive astrology are:
1. Aspects between planets in the natal chart.
2. Aspects between natal & progressed planets
3. Aspects from transiting planets to eithor/or natal planets or progressed planets.

...What's the difference between Transits and Progressions?
Transits happen for everyone. They're important and effect you personally when they contact a planet or point in your chart. Transits represent outside energy, things happening outside yourself. They describe external events and your responses to them. Progressions, however, move very slowly and are a natural progression of your original chart. The events and emotions they describe are part of you, deeply ingrained in your psyche, internal, and psychological...

Salisa,

You asked:

Progressions in astrology are created by altering the natural movement of the planets in some way. This could be through slowing down the planetary movements in some way (such as secondary progressions which set one day equal to one year or tertiary progressions which set one day equal to one lunar month) or through changing the planetary movements (such as with Solar Arcs which set all planets movement equal to the movement of the Sun). The most common usage of "progression" is for the secondary progression.

Since the secondary progression sets one day to equal one year (as previously mentioned) the slowest moving planets (also called the "outer planets") of Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter hardly move at all in a secondary progressed chart. Only the relatively faster moving "inner planets" (Mars, Venus, Mercury, Sun, and Moon) show substantial movement in the secondary progressed chart. Since a secondary progressed chart is simply a slowed down chart of transiting planets, planets in a secondary progressed chart can go from retrograde to direct and direct to retrograde, the same as with the transit chart.

Not all progressed charts permit backward (retrograde) movement, however. The previously mentioned Solar Arc schart sets all planetary movement equal to the speed of the Sun. So in the Solar Arc chart ALL planets progress at the rate of one day equals one year. This means that NO planets are ever retrograde...they ALL move forward (direct) around the Solar Arc chart.

Making progress,

Tim
