Transits
Transits on the Wheel
Here is a typical bi-wheel chart, with the natal chart on
the inside and the transiting planets on the outside. We
are using the heliocentric natal chart of my birth as an
example. Note that on the outer ring of transiting planets,
we have only drawn in the planet symbol, the sign the
planet is in, and the degrees. We have left out the
minutes, as they tend to clutter up the chart too much.
This is the usual method of displaying transits—not
showing the minutes.
You can see, by looking at any of the transiting planets
(outer ring), where any planet is today in relationship to
the natal or birth chart. For example, we can see at a
glance that transiting Mars is about to conjoin (make a
conjunction aspect) with my natal Pluto. Or, we could
note that transiting Neptune is forming a waning square
with my natal Saturn. In fact, we could note all kinds of
aspects. That is what a transit to natal bi-wheel chart is
