Your personal transit timeline
Where the slow planets meet your birth chart over the next three years, computed to the day: your Saturn return, Jupiter's cycles of growth, and the outer-planet turning points, each one dated and named. This is the map of your seasons ahead. No account, nothing stored.
How to read your timeline
A transit is simply where a planet is right now, meeting where it stood on the day you were born. The fast planets move too quickly to matter for long; the story is in the slow ones. Jupiter (about twelve years to circle the zodiac), Saturn (about twenty-nine), and the outer planets Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, which can spend years on a single degree. When one of them makes an exact aspect to a planet in your chart, it opens a chapter you can feel.
Jupiter brings growth and opportunity, and it comes often, so treat its aspects as favorable weather rather than landmarks. Saturn brings structure and tests; its hard aspects are the ones that ask you to grow up a little, and its return near thirty and again near sixty is a genuine threshold. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are rare and deep, so when one contacts your Sun, Moon, or angles, that is a multi-year turning point worth planning around. The timeline flags those.
Because a planet can retrograde back and forth over the same degree, a single transit often has two or three exact passes across a year. The whole window is the season; the dates are its high tides.
The map is free. The reading is the meaning.
The Twelve Rooms year-ahead reading takes this timeline and reads it in full: what each turning point is for, the house it lands in, and how the seasons fit together into a story. Your dates, made meaningful.

What is a transit?
Where the planets are now, meeting where they were at your birth. When a slow planet makes an exact aspect to one of your natal planets, it marks a chapter: a growth window, a test, or a turning point.
Do I need my birth time?
Not for transits to your planets, which a birth date pins closely. You do need it for transits to your Ascendant and Midheaven, and for precise Moon dates, since those depend on the exact minute.
What is a Saturn return?
When Saturn comes back to where it sat at your birth, near ages 29 and 58. It marks a threshold into a more grounded, self-authored chapter. Jupiter returns more often, about every 12 years, opening a new cycle of growth.
