The sky itself is the same for everyone alive today, so the map and the aspects standing in it are drawn without asking for anything. Which of those transits touch you is the other half of this page, and that one is read against the natal chart saved in My Almanac, cast from your birth date, your exact birth time and your birthplace.

How to read the Active Transits map
Each luminous node is one tracked body or calculated point: the Sun, Moon, eight planets, Chiron, the lunar nodes, and Lilith. Aries begins at the top of the wheel. A node’s angle follows its verified tropical longitude, while its concentric track keeps closely grouped bodies readable without pretending that the rings are physical orbits.
Select any node to open its position panel. Use Access Resonance & Glossary to interpret the colors, or Unlock Ephemeris Key to explore the zodiac signs. Animated lines reveal close conjunction, sextile, square, trine, and opposition relationships.
Live sky versus personal transits
The live positions show where the bodies are now. Your birth chart reveals where those movements touch your life most strongly, why they matter, and when their influence is likely to peak.
What this tool does
The planets where they actually stand right now, measured against your own natal chart, with the aspects they are making to it named and read. Your saved birth profile is what makes it yours.
See the living zodiac wheel, then uncover which movements in the sky are most personal to you.

Common questions
What can I learn from this map?
See where each body is now, the main aspects between them, and which transits stand out against your birth chart.
How often do the positions update?
The planetary positions refresh every hour.
Why does this tool use my birth details?
Your saved date, exact birth time, and birthplace reveal how the live sky meets your own placements. You enter them once in My Almanac, not again in each tool.
Does the wheel show what is visible from my city?
No. It shows geocentric ecliptic longitude. A local sky view also needs latitude, longitude, observing time, horizon geometry, darkness, and weather.
