What transits am I in right now? A live terminal for your chart
Every aspect the sky is making to your natal points today, with its orb and its peak date — the pressure curve beside it, and each row openable to its full case.
“What transits am I in” has a precise answer, and this page gives it as a list: each transiting planet currently within three degrees of an exact aspect to one of your natal points, the aspect it is making, the orb to two decimals, and when the contact peaks. The list is computed for the observer’s own day — it rolls over at your local midnight, not at Greenwich — from the same scan every other surface reads, and the pressure timeline sits beside it so you can see whether today is a crest or a trough of the weeks around it.

How it works
The active list
A contact is active when the transiting planet is within the three-degree envelope of an aspect to a natal point — the same orb the pressure model uses, so a row here is a contact that is contributing to today’s score, and nothing that is not contributing appears. Each row names the transiting planet, the aspect and the natal point, prints the orb, and marks the peak: the instant the pass is exact, which may be days away or already behind you. The rows can be narrowed to one natal point — every transit to your Sun, say — and a theme drawn from the day’s active set can filter them to the contacts that built it.
Clicking a row opens the Focus panel with the whole case for that contact: its geometry, its orb and phase, its peak value and date printed apart from today’s value, its share of the day’s total, and the houses it activates under your house system. The same panel opens from the timeline and the calendar, so a transit is one object however you reach it.
The chart beside it
The terminal’s chart is the pressure timeline itself — the same component, the same canonical scan, the same calibrated curve the Forecast and the calendar draw — shown without the calendar’s event overlays. Today is a point on it. A list tells you what is active; the curve tells you whether that is a lot, for you, compared with the days either side, and the window you can move it across is the same one the Forecast allows your account.
Whose day it is
“Today” is the observer’s local day, taken from the location and time zone on the account, and the list recomputes when that day turns over. In the app’s shared time mode the terminal reads its date from the same clock the sky map uses, so moving the cursor on one moves the other; otherwise it holds its own date and can be stepped through by hand.
What it does not do
The terminal does not describe what a transit means. It names the contact, measures it and dates it; the meaning is one click away in the research library, and the reading of it is yours. It also does not invent contacts to fill a quiet day: an empty list on a quiet day is the correct output, and the curve will show the quiet.
Trying it
The terminal is free, and it opens without an account on a sample chart so the instrument can be seen working. Enter your own birth details and the list becomes yours.
Common questions
- What counts as a current transit?
- A transiting planet within three degrees of an exact conjunction, sextile, square, trine or opposition to one of your natal points, on the observer’s local day. Beyond three degrees the contact contributes nothing and is not listed.
- Is this the same as the transits on my calendar or timeline?
- Yes — one scan, one pressure curve, one Focus panel. The terminal is the list-shaped view of the same data the timeline draws as a curve and the calendar draws as dates.
- Why does the list change at midnight?
- Because “today” is your local day, not the UTC calendar day. The list recomputes when your own midnight passes, as every other “today” surface in the app does.
- Do I need an account?
- Not to see it working: the terminal opens on a sample chart. Your own list needs your birth details, and keeping them needs a free account.
