Transits in Astrology: An Introduction to Timing & Prediction

An introduction to transits in astrology, which is one of the primary timing techniques that astrologers use to make predictions, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Leisa Schaim.

Transits relate where the planets are at in the sky now to where they are located in the birth chart, and can be used to study how individuals experience the quality of different phases in their life.

The premise is that transits time the activation of natal configurations and potentials in the birth chart at certain key times in a person's life.

Transits are one of the most popular techniques in astrology for predicting the future, although they can also be used to study events in the past and present.

During the course of the episode we give a detailed overview of the concept of transits, talk about how they work in practice, and then later reflect on some of the philosophical ramifications of the technique.
