sun of progress
It all depends on how long you live (and we’re all living longer), the Progressed Sun can change signs up to three times! Depending on the graphics system you use (and they all work in their own way), the houses will be different, not the signs! When the progressed Sun changes signs, there is usually a change in your behavior, a change in your outlook and attitude, a fresh start, a fresh start! You don’t need a computer, pencil and paper will do. You will need to know the degree of your Sun at birth and then do a simple calculation. I use the Solar Chart – Equal House System which gives 30 degrees to each sign/house. For those who use the Ascendant Card, the principle is the same. Let me explain and the easiest way to do it is to give you an example. I was born with the Sun at 16 degrees Sagittarius.
If we consider that each sign has 30 degrees, the calculation is this: the Sun progresses using the method of a day for a year, therefore, since I was born at 16 degrees, I was ‘Sagittarius’ for the remaining 14 years (16+ 14 = 30) become a ‘Capricorn’ at age 14 and remain a ‘Capricorn’ until age 44. (14 +30 degrees = 44 years old) Then at age 44 he became an ‘aquarius’ and will remain an ‘aquarius’ until he is 74 years old. Becoming a ‘Pisces’ (44 years + 30 degrees = 74 years) what all this means offers another layer of identity…
I will always be a Sagittarius but I will express my Sagittarius self through the identity of Capricorn and Aquarius and finally Pisces – complex, no! Sagittarius is a mutable fire sign – Capricorn a cardinal earth sign – Aquarius a fixed air sign and finally Pisces a mutable water sign – getting my drift? And you? Have you noticed the differences in the expression of your personality over the years? It’s not about getting old. This is Astrology in its simplest form and keeping things simple has always been my philosophy. If you can’t have fun with your theme, you shouldn’t…
How easily a person adapts to change depends on the mode of the sign. The fixed signs are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. The cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. The mutable signs are Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces. Another thing to consider is the person’s age when the progressed Sun changes. And you?
All of this makes for fascinating dinner conversations, as once you understand the principle, you can do it all in your head, becoming the life and soul of the party, wowing your guests with your knowledge, insight and observations. .
