This is very interesting!!
I agree that if you find repeating patterns from one chart to another then it definitely points to something going on. But I definitely had the feeling that the precessed chart was more accurate "at first sight" if I may say.
I'm not married, and don't have children so I can't provide any personal info for this type of big changing life event, but the past 2 years have been quite challenging in themselves somehow so here it goes:
2009/2010
That year I finally succeeded entrance exams (for which I had encountered major failure the year before) this was a huge step because it implied moving away and basically starting a new life.
During this year I also "fell in love" (grr I hate those words, seriously..) (but no relationship) I believe it was a sort of fated meeting because it had a huge impact on me during that year and the year later.
Non precessed
SR ASC falls in Natal 11th house
SR Moon cjct SR asc and trines SR MC
SR Sun,Venus, Pluto conjucnt in 8th house squared by Saturn in 5th
SR Mercury cjct NN in 9th house
Natal Venus cjct SR MC
Natal Mars opp SR Asc/Moon
Precessed
SR Asc falls in my 2nd House very close to my 3rd house cusp.
SR Sun, Venus, Pluto conjuncts in the 5th house square Saturn in the 2nd
SR Moon in the 10th house cjct Natal Anti-Vertex
SR Vertex cjct my Natal Dsc
SR IC cjct natal Pluto
I think the precessed is more telling in this case, the SR vertex on my dsc (turning point in my view of relationships?), Pluto cjct the SR IC (deep transformation surrounding the home?)
The Sun, Venus, and Pluto conjunction in the 5th seems more telling than the 8th because I was very focused on romance and love. It definitely was a big theme (though 8th house relates to this in a deeper way too?) while the Moon in the 10th seems more fitting to the fact hat in spite of it all what mattered the most was my "career" and "public image"
2010/2011
This year was a very restless year. I traveled A LOT. I was incessantly moving back and forth between towns. It's rather incredible the number of train tickets I have bought in 12 months. I had a lot of money coming in and huge amount coming out. I struggled with depression, which had a lot of bad impacts on my life. Honestly even when I look back I have a hard time making sense of that year. I was sort of lost and confused and deeply dissatisfied with everything and yet was very restless, and a lot more sociable. I was also very impulsive. As a result I quit everything and started over.
Non Precessed
SR Asc falls in the 2nd house
SR Sun, Pluto, Mars and Vertex conjunct each other in the 5th house
SR Saturn in the 3rd house square Mars in the 5th
SR Moon in the 3rd house (29° libra)
SR Venus square the Asc
Natal Saturn cjct SR Mars/vertex
Natal Pluto cjct SR Venus in 4th house(4° orb though)
Precessed
SR Asc falls on 5th house cusp
SR Moon in Scorpio in 12th house cjct the asc
SR Saturn on the 12th house cusp square Mars in the 3rd house
SR Sun, Pluto conjunction in the 2nd house
SR Venus square the MC
SR Vertex opp Natal Vertex
SR MC cjct natal South Node
Natal Pluto cjct SR Venus in 1st house (4° orb)
Here again, I definitely feel that the precessed is more accurate. The saturn on the 12th house cusp could indicate the depression and squaring mars in the 3rd house (and also my natal Saturn) it could point to the restlessness I felt in contacting people, moving a lot, but feeling empty inside. The moon in scorpio being cjct the asc from the 12th house is also quite telling of the emotional urges I had during this year I think.
Also the SR Vertex and MC connection to my natal Vertex and Nodes might be quite telling.
I was born late December so my solar return always applies for the year to come (my 2009/2010 solar return is for 2010) however I have read that a solar return starts being felt 3 months before it actually happens. I'm not sure of this but September/October of each year has always felt like a new starting point for me.
