A transit timeline that gives your planetary forecast a shape

What the height of the curve is

Each contact contributes a value: a weight for the transiting body, from Pluto at the top of the table to the Moon at the bottom, times a weight for the aspect, with the conjunction highest and the sextile lowest, times a falloff that starts at one when the aspect is exact and reaches zero at three degrees. Beyond three degrees a contact contributes nothing; there is no orb control, because the envelope is the model’s and not the reader’s. The active contributions are combined by a power mean with exponent two — the square root of the sum of their squares — which lets several moderate contacts add up without one strong contact being buried, and the result is scaled by a constant derived from your chart alone: the value your own chart reaches on its ninety-fifth-percentile moment across a fixed five-year reference period is placed at 85. Above 85 the scale compresses gently towards 100 rather than clipping, so extreme days keep telling apart.

The words on the scale follow the same logic. Low, Light and Moderate are fixed floors on every chart — Light from 64, Moderate from 73 — because they carry no claim about rarity. High and Intense are cut per chart, at the ninety-fifth and ninety-ninth percentiles of that chart’s own day scores over the reference period, so “High” means the same thing for everyone: one of your rarer days. A chart whose stored cuts cannot be verified falls back to fixed cuts at 80 and 92, and the page says which it is using.

What is drawn on it

Every exact pass of a drawn transit sits on the curve as a dated, labelled event, across the whole visible window, past and future alike. Two thin layer lines run beneath the curve: the climate — Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, the slow movers that define the current chapter — and the activation — Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars, how strongly a given day engages that climate. They are parts of the same curve, decomposed, and they reconcile with it exactly. Per-planet toggles let you solo the storyline you care about; they change which transit curves and dots are drawn and never the pressure curve itself, which is always the one official series.

Opening a point

The number is never a black box. Click any transit on the timeline and the Focus panel opens the case for it: the geometry and the orb, the phase, the peak — the contact’s highest value and the day it falls on — printed separately from its value on the day you clicked, because the two routinely differ by tens of points; its share of the day’s total, from a partition of energy that sums to one exactly; and the houses it activates under your house system, with the other system one toggle away. The same panel opens from the terminal and the calendar, so a transit is one object wherever you meet it.

How wide a window you can move

The timeline is visible to everyone; what differs by account is how far the window moves. Signed out, it shows a week either side of today on a sample chart — a legibility window, enough to see what the instrument looks like. A free account moves forty-five days back and thirty ahead: the whole recent past the scan holds, because the only way to judge whether the curve describes your life is to check it against weeks you actually lived. Pro moves the window anywhere across the scan, up to twelve months ahead day by day, and opens on the same frame as everyone else so the first thing it shows is readable rather than a year squeezed into pixels.

What the curve is not

Pressure means signal concentration, not a verdict on the day. A high day is a day on which many contacts to your chart are close to exact at once; it says nothing about whether what happens will be welcome, and the model’s own quality reading — supportive, demanding, transformational — is kept as a separate word beside the number rather than folded into it. The curve is a measurement of geometry against your chart, published with its weights, its orb and its calibration visible, so that it can be argued with.

Trying it

The curve, the labelled passes, the layer lines and the Focus panel are free. Pro opens the full window and the long-range horizon, and the same curve feeds the calendar, the notebook timeline and the period report — one series, several instruments.
