I stupidly posted, Compelling Evidence Progressed Charts Work, without thinking it through. This post is to clarify things.
I was taken by what these personality scores for my natal chart vs my progressed illustrated. It was like hitting a rich vein of sorts. I love to study trends and patterns and variables and whatnot. I have also said I don’t think people change, many times. I have to rethink this now, all because of these stupid scores?
But what I like about the scores, is they’re objective. There’s no bias. Seeing some scores change dramatically, interested me. It’s showing me, the idea of a person, “progressing”, can really be seen via these charts. Sample of one, I know. But I can look at the score changes and readily identify the qualities, with the current “me”. And they are different.
From there, I started thinking of the possible variances. One person may go through very few big changes in their life. This could be explained by retrogrades that keep the planets from changing signs, for long periods, if at all.
When I moved across the country, I was aware my Progressed chart would degrade. I set this aside, but have seen this play out. If I’d seen these scores at this time, I would not have set it aside. I moved for my family, so I would do it again, but I would be a lot more informed.
From there, I starting thinking about the here and now. The extreme progressed chart, pictured, is mine. Provided, I lived, I was always going to reach this point.
In my current location, this stellium falls in my 6th house.
If I were in my hometown, the planets fall in my 7th.
If I moved back to the city I left, it’s 7th and 8th.
Big differences here, when it comes to the my focus in life. If I was alone, with no one else to consider, I would most certainly choose a location, based on this.
People sometimes use astrology to determine where to move. I am going on record to state, I feel this method is far superior to astrocartography. Just my opinion, yours can be different!
To get to the problem, when I posted about the progressed personality stuff; people tipped me for their natal scores. Do they have to tip me again if they want their progressed? No. You just have to ask.
You can also, make it easy on me, by including your current city, so we don’t have to email back and forth. My inbox wants to kill itself, at times. I’m sure you can imagine!
I apologize for causing this confusion. I hope you can see, it was not intentional, to sell something. I’m legit excited about this. You can also purchase a Progressed Chart Report and just make a note, you want your scores as well. I’m happy to do that for you.
What do you think of using progressed charts to help with relocation?
Whoa this is super interesting! Lots of low attributes flipped to high…curiously “Independent. Difficulty following orders and regulations. Loner. Follows own instincts” still tops the chart at 318 haha
biggest rise: “Impatience, tendency to anger. Fiery, headstrong, aggressive” from 68 to 254
biggest fall: “Sense of duty and obligation. Conscience and guilt” from 215 to 9 (lol)
super interesting!
Do you feel you’ve become more aggressive over time?
And maybe more jaded?
I don’t know, don’t think so…I’d say over time I figured out what I want (that’s been a long hard-earned journey). People don’t tend to describe me as aggressive.
Maybe this explains my (acquired) affinity & respect for Aries. Pearls and swine and all that. Quite a feat for a shy virgo, I’d say.
Wow! That’s high!
Yes! The highs became even higher, and the lows dropped even lower. Now the attribute count between the top two score categories and the bottom two categories is nearly equal, with a 13-12 split. In natal, the bottom two categories dominated with a score of 20 to 5.
Progress! Maybe I overcame the muted phase afterall 😀
So you change the birth place on a progressed chart if you move? Haven’t tried that, sounds interesting…But my outer planets were all retrograde at birth, so strictly inner planets and the ascendant…
I want to add, I appreciate your thoughts on this Elsa. Progressed chart and scores (while fun and precise) gave me pause and something to think about. The thing is, transits are cool but they mostly have a specific time attached to them, but people grow and change over the course of their lives and sometimes those changes are irreversible. It helps to have a second tool beyond natal charts to see that. In a way, return charts also kinda don’t address this angle.
Look forward to reading more from you on this 🙂
This is fascinating! Explain more about using the progressed chart rather than astrocartography. Thinking of moving and wondering how that works. Thanks in advance!
Would be helpful for me as well! Thanks 😊
I loved getting the numbers. They really made sense for my changing interests. And comparing my natal and progressed was pretty helpful too. I’ve got a huge natal stellium in Libra–Sun, Jupiter, Mercury, Venus, and Uranus. In the 4th/mostly 5th/6th. My progressed breaks up my Stellium, spreading those out to different interests. And just a lot less Libra, with my sun now in Sag. but now also in 5th. Listening to a romantic song I used to love the other day literally made me cringe. Ugh, the sappiness and cringey emotional drama. Sorry Libras, I’ve got a Pisces moon too and am very happen to be taking off my rose colored glasses and avoiding the Pluto emotional deeps also feels pretty good to me now. 🙂 Thanks Elsa, the numbers actually are helping me go with my gut and leave some of what I used to be interested in professionally behind. My numbers in the area I used to work — humanities — dropped way down. Moving on 🙂
You’re welcome! This has been a good exercise for me. I’m glad others have benefitted!
