If you want to start having more fun with astrology than just understanding your birth chart, start tracking life events so you can look at the planetary transits: that is, what’s happening in the sky at the moment of the event, and how that sky aligns with and activates your personal chart.
- Keep a pocket notebook or use a notes app on your phone.
- Jot down the date, time, and geographical location (home, Joe’s house, street address, etc.)
- Be as exact as possible. If you forget to write it down until hours later, note the time you write the note and then the approximate time of the event (2 hours ago, or around noon yesterday).
- Write down your feelings about the event. How did it impact you? Was it challenging, did it harmonize perfectly, did it change your perspective, did you notice something you’d never noticed before? Your feelings and perceptions might change over time, so noting your initial reaction can be really helpful later.
When you have questions like “What’s the significance of this event happening on November 1st?” or “What was so weird about Tuesday?” your astrologer can help you find the deeper meanings and what lessons might be presented.
