Secondary Progressions

A day for a year

Secondary progressions are one of astrology’s best-loved timing methods. The idea is symbolic: each day after your birth stands for one year of your life. So the sky on the 30th day after you were born describes your 30th year. The progressed Sun creeps about 1° a year, the progressed Moon about 12° (a new sign every two and a half years), and the progressed Moon’s phase marks a 29½-year cycle of your inner life.

About this tool

Secondary progressions use the symbolic rule of a day for a year: the sky on the 30th day after birth describes your 30th year. The progressed Moon moves about one degree a month and sets the emotional tone, while progressed aspects mark slow, personal turning points.
