Pluto conjunct Pluto: 9/1/2008 5:51 AM, Exact
This transit will not occur during a person's normal life span.
Jupiter conjunct Jupiter: 9/1/2008 9:04 AM, Exact
This transit comes along only once every 12 years and signals the beginning of a new cycle of growth. In traditional astrology, it can signify tremendous luck and unexpected windfalls, but the results are usually more subtle.
You will be exposed to new philosophies now and this will broaden your outlook on life. It is possible that you will travel to foreign lands or that you will meet and learn from people from such places. Your understanding of the world will increase as you are very eager to explore new ways of thinking. You are more aware of your role as a world citizen and feel more like contributing to the good of the earth in general.
Although you feel more giving now, you may also be more demanding. It is possible to be both, as long as you keep a balance. You are highly optimistic and giving now, and at the same time you are intent upon furthering your own personal progress. More than ever, this is a time of "what you get is what you give." You have a heightened sense of justice now, and this is a good time to settle legal disputes.
You can expect to meet new people who will be of great benefit to you during this new 12-year cycle. This is an excellent time to return to school or take refresher courses in subjects of interest to you. You will encounter new opportunities and increased freedom, and it is very likely that you will at least have the opportunity to travel.
Although this transit can indeed bring financial gain, it is wise to remember that opportunity only knocks once. You may feel over-confident now and may sit back and wait for the good things to come to you. If you do so, you will surely miss some great chances for success. Now is a good time to expand your business or make a carefully considered investment. Although you may feel as though nothing can go wrong, this is not a good time to gamble or to over-extend yourself. Be careful not to promise more than you can deliver. Also be careful not to over-indulge in food or drink.
Chiron conjunct Chiron: 9/1/2008 10:20 AM, Exact
This transit will occur only once in each cycle of Chiron when at about age 50 it returns to exactly the position it occupied at your birth. Known as the "Chiron return," this is a time of hardship, depression, or perhaps even serious illness (for yourself or a relative). If you suffer an illness now, it is an excellent time to try an alternative, holistic approach to health care (perhaps for the first time), especially if more traditional methods do not help. You'll probably find that whatever ails you now is connected to wounds you've carried since childhood but have never been able to heal. If you should succeed in curing your maladies now, you will be inspired to help others heal themselves.
Events that occur in your life now seem destined or fated. You are passing through a major turning point, and your life will never be the same again. You realize that you've already lived half your life and feel the need to bring about major permanent change in your life, as well as in the world in general, as though you need to fulfill your karmic purpose. If you have unresolved problems that have troubled you for many years (especially in relationships), this is an excellent time to clear things up. Major life decisions seem to be easier to make now, as though you really have no choice but to cooperate with the flow of the universe. If you can do this, you'll frequently experience synchronicity in your life, as your chosen path harmoniously unfolds before you. This can be a time of great spiritual and psychic awakening, even if you have never believed in such things before. You can learn a lot now, as long as you don't believe you already know everything. You may be anxious to share your newfound wisdom with others, but you must be careful not to come on too strong in your enthusiasm. No one enjoys having ideas rammed down their throat.
You may find that you spend a great deal of time alone now. As part of your rediscovery of life, you may travel to foreign lands during this time, or explore a career in a totally new field. During this time you may develop latent psychic, healing, or teaching abilities. In turn, you will inspire others to heal and be healed. You recognize that every occurrence in your life offers its own bit of wisdom, if only you are willing to accept it. Instead of worrying about yesterday or tomorrow, you're learning to live in the now and take care of today.
Neptune conjunct Neptune: 9/1/2008 11:40 AM, Exact
This transit will not occur within a person's normal life span.
Uranus conjunct Uranus: 9/1/2008 11:48 AM, Exact
This transit occurs only once every 84 years and promises to be very exciting. If Uranus returns to its original position in your birth chart because of retrograde motion, then this transit occurred for you the first time within a few months of your birth. This was probably the case for you if your early childhood was filled with disruption and sudden change. This may have left you feeling insecure--or rebellious--when confronted with life's changes.
After completing its journey around the Sun (and around your chart), Uranus will again return to its natal position around your 84th birthday. During this transit you gain a more spiritual perspective on your life. Everything you experience in life now has many levels of meaning and significance. You trust in the Universe to provide for you more than ever before, and you enjoy increased freedom from life's everyday burdens and responsibilities.
Many people take up the study of new ideas now, especially in the fields of science and electronics (such as computers) as well as metaphysical sciences (such as astrology). Intuitive and psychic experiences are common during this transit. If you're open to it, you'll receive generous amounts of divine guidance now.
Mars conjunct Mars: 9/1/2008 12:00 PM, Exact
If Mars is not under the influence of other challenging aspects. This is the renewal of a 2-year energy cycle. Start something new.
Saturn conjunct Saturn: 9/1/2008 12:01 PM, Exact
This transit (called the "Saturn Return") can be one of the most important in your life. It occurs first close to your 30th birthday and again in your late fifties. This transit indicates that Saturn has made a complete revolution around your chart (and the Sun), bringing its stabilizing and maturing influence to each part of your life. You're now making life decisions based on what you want rather than what others think you should do. The increased responsibility and lessons Saturn brings are annoying little "growing pains," but they are worth it.
This transit both begins and ends a new cycle in terms of your career. If you have built up your profession steadily over the years, you will receive a handsome payoff now. If you have not, the steps you take now will greatly affect your future. Don't be afraid to make a sudden career change if you feel it is a wise move. You may feel as though you have lost time to make up for and must make every minute count to build a better future.
You will eliminate many circumstances, things and people from your life now which are not contributing to your growth. The truth is that you are no longer willing to put up with unsatisfactory conditions in your life you've tolerated but will make changes to achieve your own goals in life. Marriages will endure this transit if you are being honest about your needs and if the relationship is a strong one. Otherwise, you may examine your domestic life and find that you have been putting up with it more than enjoying it.
Don't hold on to outdated people and things which will pass from your life now. Their passing will only make room for others who will be more in line with your new goals in life. Cutting ties to circumstances or people who are holding you back will only facilitate your own growth. Changes may seem scary now, but they are needed more than ever.
If you have held onto circumstances in your life which are not good for you, you will experience this transit as a time of crisis. The things you hold onto the tightest will be ripped from your grasp in order that something new and more appropriate can take their place.

Energies can escalate beyond control. Impulsive actions beget chaos. Self-control is the key to successful results.
Saturn trine Jupiter: 9/9/2008 3:25 PM, Exact
You are more organized than usual now, and your business affairs are likely to run smoothly. If you are willing to work hard now, you can establish solid foundations in your life upon which to build for your future. Although things work out better than usual now, this is not merely a run of luck; you've worked for everything you will get. With your healthy mix of optimism and caution, you can accomplish a great deal.
This is an excellent time for career advancement, especially in areas related to politics, law, science, education, religion, travel or business administration. Supervisors and authority figures who are in a position to help you will do so now. They can see that you are a worthwhile investment and realize that they too will benefit from becoming your allies. Since you are willing to compromise and cooperate now, you can team up with others and accomplish a great deal more than you could on your own.
It is easy for you to plan for the future now because you have a clear vision of where you want to go in life. But you also have patience and a willingness to work steadily toward your goals. You are practical enough to see that achieving them will take time and don't expect to reach the top tomorrow. Now is a good time to make long-range plans and to organize your life accordingly. It would also be wise to utilize this fortuitous combination of good luck (Jupiter) and practicality (Saturn) by putting some money aside or investing in a carefully considered project.
During this time you may receive valuable counsel from persons who are much older than you. The more you can humble yourself and respect their wisdom, the more you will grow through your association with such teachers.
