Transiting Planets through Signs
A sign transit is the interval during which a body’s selected zodiac longitude remains inside one 30-degree sign segment. Scope is explicit.
Overview
Mars crosses the Gemini–Cancer boundary inside the bracket; interpolation is required for an ingress time. This is the worked result for Transiting Planets through Signs; it remains conditional and does not turn geometry or timing into a verdict. The comparison method is explicit: Declare tropical or sidereal mode and ayanamsa when relevant, find every ingress and retrograde re-entry, and distinguish collective duration from natal contacts.

Definition and exact scope
A sign transit is the interval during which a body’s selected zodiac longitude remains inside one 30-degree sign segment.
Calculation or decision rule
Declare tropical or sidereal mode and ayanamsa when relevant, find every ingress and retrograde re-entry, and distinguish collective duration from natal contacts. The receipt retains the chosen input record, reference frame, tolerance, and version, then identifies the first step where an independent recalculation diverges.
Worked case and illustrative near miss
ephemeris row t0 ♂ 29°50′♊; row t1 ♂ 0°10′♋; times 12 hours apart. Mars crosses the Gemini–Cancer boundary inside the bracket; interpolation is required for an ingress time.
Illustrative near miss; does not qualify: Assigning the whole civil day to Cancer because the second row is after the ingress.
School, model, and context variants
A slow planet’s sign stay describes a broad cohort backdrop; it does not make every person experience the same event.
Product, safety, and verification boundary
OpenFate publishes Transiting Planets through Signs as an auditable knowledge reference and does not claim a dedicated calculator or generated result. Transiting Planets through Signs preserves contrary observations and uncertainty. It cannot replace consent, professional help, location research, or a person’s account.
Chart combinations covered here
The combinations below show the exact chart configurations covered by this topic. Confirm every named body, sign, house, aspect, date, and chart role before interpreting a combination; none is a prediction by itself.
- Details to confirm
- If a named body, sign, house, aspect, time, coordinate, house system, or chart subject is missing or unreliable, stop at the basic definition and do not infer the state.
- How to interpret these combinations
- A transit through a sign is a dated collective position; individual relevance requires verified natal contacts and context.
- How to use the sources
- The bibliography for this topic provides general context. Check the cited passage before relying on an interpretive claim.
