Want a Glimpse Into What’s Next? Why Transit Readings Feel Like a Cosmic GPS

Your birth chart is like a personal blueprint—a snapshot of the sky at the moment you were born. It reveals your soul’s purpose, the qualities you brought into this life, and the themes you’re here to work with.

But life doesn’t stand still. And neither do the planets. Even though their positions are fixed in your chart, they’re always moving, constantly stirring up new energy that shapes your experiences and growth.

This is where transits come in. A transit happens when a planet moves through a particular part of your chart, activating opportunities, challenges, and lessons. Think of them as turning points that bring awakenings, breakthroughs, or shifts in alignment with what your birth chart already mapped out for you.

Some transits pass quickly, others stick around for years, but every one of them has a purpose. They either encourage, challenge, or redirect you—always pushing you toward your highest path.

And when you understand these transits? You gain the clarity to navigate your growth journey with more ease, less resistance, and a deeper sense of purpose.

A Planet in Transit: The Saturn Return

Let’s take Saturn as an example. Saturn takes about 28–29 years to move all the way around the zodiac. When it circles back to the exact spot it was in when you were born, you hit a rite of passage called your Saturn Return. This transit lasts about 2.5 years, and most people can point to at least one major life event that happened during this time.

Saturn is often called the “lord of karma” because it rules structure, responsibility, boundaries, and the areas of life we’re here to master. And usually, it’s connected to the very themes we’ve struggled with in past lives.

In my chart, Saturn sits in the 7th house, which rules relationships—romantic partners, close friendships, and even business partnerships. Right on cue, at age 28, Saturn returned to my 7th house, and I went through a divorce. At the time, I wasn’t yet studying astrology, so I didn’t realize it was my Saturn Return. But looking back, the timing couldn’t have been clearer.

Here’s the thing about Saturn: yes, it can feel heavy and harsh, but it’s really about accountability. It asks you to face the karma, lessons, and purpose your soul signed up for. It’s rarely comfortable, but it’s always meaningful.

Getting divorced and changing the entire course of my life was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but it was also the turning point that set me free. Deep down, I knew I couldn’t stay in that marriage, and while I didn’t realize it at the time, Saturn was actually supporting me—guiding me through every step of leaving so I could align with my truth.

And Saturn doesn’t just check in once. About eight years later, I experienced what’s called a Saturn Square Saturn—a different kind of Saturn transit. It wasn’t as intense as the Return, but it still came with its own lessons. It felt like Saturn circling back to say, “Are you staying on course?” If you’ve drifted off course, Saturn will nudge you back into alignment. For me, lessons came up around relationships again—but thanks to the work I’d already done, I was much more prepared this time.

Aligning With Cosmic Timing: How Transit Readings Guide Your Growth

I can’t tell you how grateful I am that I understood what was happening during that most recent Saturn transit. That awareness helped me navigate with more clarity, make choices that felt aligned, and, maybe most importantly, offer myself grace.

It also gave me the chance to pause and celebrate how much I’d grown since my Saturn Return. Instead of stumbling in the dark wondering why certain things were happening, I could recognize the bigger picture. When challenges arose, it wasn’t confusing—it was more like, “Oh, that makes sense.”

Here’s what’s important to know: the planets don’t control us. They simply offer energy that supports our life lessons. When we lean into that energy instead of fighting it, we minimize unnecessary suffering and open ourselves to more opportunities.

And it’s not all hard lessons—there are beautiful, supportive transits too. Some signal career breakthroughs, others open doors for meeting a partner or deepening a relationship.

That’s what an astrological transit reading is all about: helping you see where you are on your path, what opportunities are showing up, and how to prepare for challenges in a way that empowers you.
