Transit Aspects

Astrological transits are a part of what is usually called predictive astrology, the claim of astrology to predict or forecast future trends and developments. Most astrologers nowadays regard the term 'prediction' as something of a misnomer, as modern astrology does not claim to directly predict future events as such. Instead it is claimed that an astrological pattern with regard to the future can correspond with any one of a variety of possibilities. What is in fact foretold is the trend of circumstances and the nature of the individual's reaction to the situation

Sun Transits

The Sun is the source of all energies. These energies stimulate the activities of the houses occupied by the transiting Sun and reinforce or weaken the planetary effects, depending on the Sun's aspect to the natal planet. When the Sun transits an inner planet, it may trigger a dormant aspect between that inner planet and a slower moving outer planet. If a planet is being transited by another planet when it is being transited by the Sun, the effect of the transit is strengthened.

Sun Opposition Natal Ceres


Struggles around being yourself and feeling the need to take care of others can arise. Avoid martyrdom, set boundaries, and check in with your intentions before promising your energy to another.

It is necessary to develop healthy self-esteem and be prepared to show up as your authentic self.

As Ceres opposes your Sun, ask yourself: what kind of nurturing helps me find balance? Was there a time I felt truly cared for? What conditions were present when I felt the safest to show up as my true self?

If you find that you come up blank during this contemplation, this transit asks you to cultivate a deeper relationship with yourself.

Challenges with family members or other prominent women in your life can arise. It is important to search for compromise between opposing forces. Seeing eye to eye may not be within reach, so you will need to team up and work toward creative solutions.

Boundary work can help you differentiate what is best for you versus others’ expectations. It is important to remember that an opposition favors balance over extremism.

Activities that are supported include: journaling, self-reflection, meditation, therapy, and decoding your birth chart.
