This is my understanding so far: "Progressions - 1 year = 1 day
Secondary - Original Transits
Tertiary I - 1 month = 1 day
Tertiary II - ???
Solar Arc - ???"

I don't really see a thread dedicated to explaining each version of progressions so that's why I'm making this. There is also two versions of Tertiary Progressions so thats weird.

They confuse me, too. Solar arcs, everything moves one degree a year. I think. Your entire chart ticks another degree, like it’s a clock, and moves together.

Secondary progressions, they all move at a different speed, except that Saturn tends to keep up with the progressed moon. I now have mercury retrograde in my progressed chart, but not natally. I have no idea if that’s supposed to affect me in the same way it would in a natal chart.

That... is bizarre. I wonder what the reasoning for it is.

Well my Mars entered Scorpio with some harsh feelings, so I feel that. Nonetheless still a blessed sign, Pluto works hard to get you want you want.

I think both apply, natal is the earth on which you stand, progressed is like a spate of long-term energies you receive.

The Sun moves one degree per day/ear, thus one degree per year is the Sun's arc(Solar Arc).

Lol it ^ seems to be the only thing in my life being able to LAST... (ofc. for the time effective ) without any of the ones you would expect to find in prog syna.

Relevance? The Planetary Arc progressions to angular points Asc/Dsc OR Mc/Ic usually marks an event related to that planet and angular point I.e. if you have Mc in Sco 12 and u see that this year there is a Jupiter Arcing to it at 12 Degrees Scorpio, then we can expect things to expand (Jup) on the career/public persona front (Mc).

The transits will also add to this story. But generally speaking, it could be a year of prosperity and having more choices at your disposal. You feel like expanding in some shape or form OR are subject to expansion via what you do(Mc) which then affects your home-life too (Ic).

The arc of Jupiter to the Mc, doesn't have to be in Sco only though. It could be in Tau, Aqua or Leo. So long as it squares the 12Sco Mc/Ic natal degree point by planetary progression, it will have the above impact.

With natal progressions ,the planet to watch for is the Moon. One must also watch all the other planets to see if they make aspects to inner natal planets.

The progressions don't work the same as Arc progression. Except for the Sun moving forward in the same manner I.e 1 deg=1 year of life. The rest of the planets do not move the same way.

Relevance? Progressions time events in your life. It would be worthwhile to look at the Moon progression -this especially when it comes to evaluating the situation "right now", and seeing how the natal as well as transit aspects affect it.

The Moon is ofcourse our "mental and emotional state". So progressions will often indicate where your priorities are within the context of your age and where you are in life. That is if the natal Moon transit aspects do not shed clear light in relation to contextual issues.

So for instance, progressed Moon on natal/transit Saturn by square, opp or conj, often denotes a time when there are emotional challenges. Or where there is a great deal of emotional maturity needed in order to tackle a current life situation I.e. loss of maternal figure(Mom)? Divorce from spouse(support system is Moon)? Job promotion that proves challenging and keeps you away from home/having peace of mind? A requirement one must meet via external benchmarks that puts one under tremendous pressure? Etc.

Also key is what aspects the progressed Sun makes. This either by transit or natal aspects. As this will determine in what way you are changing and evolving as a person. And which factors are triggered to bring about that change.

Progressed Sun conj/square/opp natal or transit Uranus, could be a period where there is a lot of shifts and chaotic circumstances. These events/occurrences may influence you in terms of how flexible you learn to be in being able to tackle them.

Maybe the sudden(Ura) death of the Father(Sun)? Erratic/unpredictable (Ura) situations at work (Sun)? Changes in life(Ura) that require you to adjust or adapt(Sun) because of age or milestones? i.e. midlife crisis, moving out of home & assuming more independence, menopause (for women) or having a child/adopting one etc.

I usually pay careful attention to Sun/Moon and the rulers of the Asc/Dsc , Mc/Ic in progressions (but ofcourse other planets count too). I look at what natal aspects or transits are affecting them as per progression. And I find that there are life events that surround such aspects.

It's important to consider the planetary Arc progressions and natal progressions as secondary to the natal chart and aspects to transits.They (natal, progression and solar arc)all work together and are not in "competition". They all tell a story.
