I go on Astro, there are a list of transits occuring today:

Mercury trine Pluto,
Sun opposition Uranus,
Mars in 11th house,
Moon square Mercury,
Moon square Sun,
Moon sextile Jupiter, and so on.........

But I look at the chart, I follow the planets in green on the outer wheel. So transiting Moon squares Natal Venus right.

But looking at the diagram chart I compare it to the list form, with some of them there are no lines drawn between the transiting planet and Natal. The transiting planets should be where the lines are.

I'm not entirely sure what your issue is here, to be honest.

Are you trying to compare the transits to your natal chart?

The aspects that the transiting planets are making to your natal placements can be found if you click on the "Additional tables (PDF)" link at the top and the aspects should be in a graph on the second page.

I don't believe the transit-natal aspect lines show up on the Astro wheels.

Okay for example:

Natal mars is squaring transiting saturn.

You look at the sign/house of your natal mars and the sign/house transiting saturn is in.

Another example; If transiting Mars/venus is conjunction in your natal 7th house, this would be an a highly auspicious time for romance and relationships.

Really get to know your own chart first. Degrees, houses aspects etc. Then you will only have to glance at the current transiting planets to know exactly how they are aspecting your own. Learn how to read natal charts first, especailly your own, then the transits will make much more sense.

Learn about the houses, aspects, signs etc on their own.....learn them through and through.

If you don't, you will never be able to put predictive astrology into play. Once you learn the basics....which is actually alot....every piece of the puzzle, only then will you be able to apply it all to natal charts.

Astrology is an art. It takes years to really learn and get good at. You can't jump into reading transits before you truly understand natal basics at least. After that, the rest can begin to all into place.

yeah astrology is complicated at first.

Understand the basics and apply what you know.

It's just baby steps.

Im just comparing the format thats all. I read my natal and transits by using the list. But when I see the wheel form, there are no aspect lines from the transiting planet to natal. Some are dead on and they show up while others are way off. Maybe I have to select some options or settings.

Maybe I have to select some options or settings. So basically what Im saying is I have a list of transits and Im trying to see it on a wheel. I think its got something to do with the settings.
