Transit Calendar
Looking for a single transit calendar that covers everything happening in the sky, not just one kind of event. This calendar runs retrogrades, moon phases, void-of-course windows, and planetary ingresses together in one date-range view, with every category turned on by default so you see the whole picture at once.How it works ↓
Fill in the details above and compute to see your result here.
See upcoming retrogrades, moon phases, void-of-course windows, and planetary ingresses, add your birth data to layer in personal transits to your natal chart.
One calendar, every major sky event on by default
This is the all-in-one view: retrogrades, moon phases, void-of-course windows, and ingresses, all plotted across the same date range and all switched on the moment you load it. If you only want one of those — say, just moon phases, or just void-of-course windows — those exist as their own focused presets, but they're the same underlying calendar narrowed to a single tag. This is the version with everything left in.
A retrograde is a planet appearing to move backward
From Earth's vantage point, planets periodically slow down, appear to reverse direction against the background stars, then resume forward motion — an optical effect of relative orbital speeds, not an actual reversal. Mercury retrograde is the most talked-about because it happens most often, but every planet does this on its own schedule, and this calendar tracks all of them.
Moon phases, void windows, and ingresses each answer a different question
Moon phases tell you where the lunar cycle is right now — building toward a new or full moon, or past one. Void-of-course windows flag stretches when the Moon has finished its aspects and is coasting to the next sign, traditionally weak timing for new commitments. Ingresses mark any planet crossing into a new sign, from the Moon doing it every couple of days to an outer planet doing it once a decade. Stacked together, they cover the sky at very different speeds.
Turn tags off to cut the noise
With everything on, a busy month can list a lot of entries. If you only care about one or two categories — retrogrades and ingresses, say, without the Moon's faster-moving phases and void windows — you can filter the tags down without losing the combined date range, or switch to one of the single-tag presets if you always want just one slice.
Same output for every visitor until you add your own chart
Without birth data, this calendar shows identical results to everyone checking the same date range — it's an ephemeris, not a personal reading, so there's no gap to fill in. Add your birth details and it layers in a transit_aspect tag: moments when a moving planet lines up with a planet or point in your own chart. That's an optional deepening on top of the sky-wide view, not a requirement to use the calendar.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a transit calendar
A single calendar combining retrogrades, moon phases, void-of-course windows, and planetary ingresses across a date range, so you can see everything happening in the sky at once instead of checking each separately.
Do I need to enter my birth details to use it
No — the base calendar works with zero birth data and shows the same sky-wide events to everyone. Adding your birth data layers in transits to your own chart on top.
What's the difference between this and the moon phase or ingress calendars
They're the same calendar — this preset runs every category at once, while the others are the same underlying data narrowed to a single tag.
