Secondary Progressions Chart Calculator
Day-for-a-year method · Today’s progressed Sun and Moon
Reveal your secondary-progressed chart for today with the day-for-a-year method. Enter birth date, place and recorded time when available. The chart preview is free; generating a written interpretation uses a separate reading allowance.
At age 30, a secondary-progressed chart uses the sky roughly 30 days after birth. The planets have not physically slowed down: the day-for-a-year rate is the symbolic convention of this technique. Compare the progressed Sun and Moon with your natal placements; the natal chart remains your birth chart.
The current form calculates progressions as of today and does not offer an arbitrary target-date selector or a solar-arc mode. Recorded birth time is especially important for progressed angles; without it, those time-dependent details are withheld. Different progression conventions can produce different angles, so compare methods as well as birth inputs.

FAQ
What are secondary progressions?
A symbolic timing technique where each day after your birth corresponds to one year of your life. Your progressed chart at age 30 is the actual sky 30 days after you were born, read as a map of inner development rather than external events.
What is the progressed Moon?
It is the Moon’s position at the symbolic progressed date. It usually spends about two to three years in a sign, unlike the actual Moon, which changes signs every few days. Astrologers use its sign, house and contacts when interpreting a period; this calculator shows the progressed chart for today.
How are progressions different from transits?
Transits use planetary positions at the date being studied. Secondary progressions use a date shortly after birth, advanced at about one day for each year lived. You can compare both with the natal chart, but they are different calculations and need not show the same placements.
Is the progressed chart free to calculate?
Yes. The chart preview is free. A written progression reading is optional: this tool allows one anonymous reading per month, three for a free signed-in account, and unlimited readings with active Premium. Check the allowance shown beside the reading action.
Does this calculate solar arcs or secondary progressions?
This page uses secondary progressions, the day-for-a-year method. Solar-arc directions move points by a common arc and are a different technique. Do not compare their positions as if they were the same chart.
Can I choose a future date for my progressed Moon?
The current interface calculates the progressed chart for today and does not expose a future-date selector. It should not be used as a search tool for every progressed Moon ingress date.
Which date does the day-for-a-year method use?
For a simple illustration, thirty years after 1 June 1990 at 10:00 UTC corresponds approximately to 1 July 1990 at 10:00 UTC: thirty days after birth. Fractional age refines the progressed date between birthdays. This page calculates the progressed chart for today; the example explains the time scale and is not a selectable future-date feature.
