All of life is dependent on the interplay both actual and symbolic of the Sun and the Earth.
The Earth symbolises our daily life on it, the Sun is our essence or soul.
The Sun in our chart describes the particular partial choice our soul has made for this life, by sign the personality, by house the area of life and by aspect the experience to go with it.
If we want to understand what is happening to us in this life we study transits of planets in relation to the Earth.
If we want to understand how this life interacts with our soul experience we study secondary progressions.
Progressions are calculated using the relationship of Earth to Sun.
The time that it takes for the Earth to spin round on itself (one day) is taken to describe what is occurring in the timeframe that it takes the Earth to orbit the Sun (one year).
This method of Secondary Progressions has been used in astrology for over 2000 years, without anyone really knowing what it is actually designed for.
My own lived experience of the last 8 years and my researches into this method has shown me that Progressions are the key to unlocking our connection with our soul’s journey through many lives.
The study of Progressions shows our connection to other members of our soul group (entities including our soulmate) who have contracted with us as souls to make an appearance in our lives at a particular time (which is predictable by this method) in order to help us experience the conditions that our transits require us to.
Regressions (reverse progressions) will describe the critical events of our past lives that condition the choices and chart that our soul has chosen to experience in this one and the moments when these same members of our soul group appeared and departed during those lives.
These are the main principles of what I call Quantum Astrology, the recognition and study of our essence and our true place in the Universe.
Divinatory methods of astrology like Horary are ways of accessing this connection.
I have written many articles with examples over the last 5 years under the heading Secondary Regressions
The most recent discovery in this quantum field has been the existence of the Karmic Relationship Chart, a chart which describes the karmic connection that one person has with another and what their role will be in this life.
This chart also provides a powerful link to the specific past life experience that is driving their current life synastry and experience.
While working with the KRC, I have noticed that it is powerfully triggered by transits.
This was something I did not expect and was not looking for because if anything as a Progressed chart you would expect it to be responsive to its own Progressions, but this does not seem to be the case.
When we are looking into the astrology of soul group members it seems that their comings and goings is absolutely meant to occur at a particular time in a person’s life.
This can also include important events like marriages. So hatches, matches and dispatches as indicated in the title of this article.
One point about the Karmic Relationship Chart, because it is based on a slow method like progressions, it works best between people who were born several years apart.
In the charts of couples around the same age, the only planet that can shift significantly from its birth position is the Moon. The KRC Moon can tell us a lot but we can learn more when looking at charts with an age difference.
In the whole history of astrology, the one relationship that has been written about most is that of Charles and Diana.
I have looked at it from a number of different perspectives, see A Match Made In Heaven?, Princess Diana’s Death, The Four Epocalypses, A Time To Love, A Time To Di.
Since discovering the Karmic Relationship Chart, I have examined theirs as well in A Right Royal Progress
I will quote from this article.
The most important progression is that of the Sun. It moves forward through the Zodiac at approximately 1 degree per year.
When we look at Charles’ Solar Progressions there are two conjunctions that would occur during his lifetime, with Mars and Jupiter.
The one with Jupiter also triggers the exact opposition with Uranus.
From a progressed perspective these are by far the most important events of his life.
These occurred in 1976/77 (Mars) and 1985/86 (Jupiter).
These years do not coincide with any major events in Charles life.
However, 1977 was the first time he met Diana and 1986 was when most people recognise his extra marital affair with Camilla began.
So we can see that progressions are specifically to do with people rather than life events.
What about progressing Charles’ chart to the date when Diana was born?
The age difference between the two is 13 years, enough time for Charles’ Sun to have moved on to 5 Sagittarius exactly trine (1/4 degree orb) his Ascendant and in even closer square to his Saturn (6 minutes).
In a way this double connection sums up Charles’ relationship with Diana.
His marriage to her made him appear more of a royal (Leo Ascendant) but also was seen by him as something that restricted and frustrated him (Saturn).
What about the other way round?
The Sun in the 7th house there shows that her relationship would be the major theme in her life.
Diana’ also has an extremely difficult 8th house stellium including a Mars/Pluto conjunction which points to her violent death in a car accident. For more on this see Princess Diana’s Death – Why?
Her Venus is also very important in her chart as the apex planet of her T Square. This shows her a role as the most famous woman in the world.
As already mentioned, Diana first met Charles in 1977.
In 1976/77 Diana’s progressed Sun was sextile her Venus, the only progressed aspect that could be formed between the two in her lifetime.
This meeting was the reason for Diana’s celebrity, without it we would never have heard of her.
Again we can see that not only are progressions about people, but they are about our first meeting with these people, the moment that they enter our lives.
What if we regress Diana’s chart back to the date of Charles’ birth?
This is clearly a very important moment as her regressed Mercury is exactly (5 minute orb) conjunct her Sun.
Her two 7th house planets are coming together.
Her regressed Moon is wedged between her Mars/Pluto conjunction in the 8th house, which seems also to be pointing out that her connection with Charles would eventually lead to her death.”
Let’s have another look at Charles’ KRC with Diana.
We know that as a natal Sun Scorpio with a square aspect to Pluto in his 1st house, Charles’ life is very responsive to Pluto transits.
In fact his whole family are, as shown in one of the first articles I ever wrote Pluto And The House Of Windsor
The two most powerful events in Charles’ relationship with Diana are obviously their wedding on July 29th 1981 and her death on 31st August 1997.
Transit Pluto was conjunct this KRC Moon in 1981 and conjunct the Sun in 1997.
This also means that in 1997 transit Pluto was square to the Moon/Pluto conjunction in the chart of Diana’s KRC with Charles.
The other major relationship of Charles’ life was with his mother.
In The Instantaneous Acceleration Of X And Y I write
“I have written about the astrology of King Charles many times but now I was able to see it in a new light.
Charles’ Sun is part of a 4th house stellium, so family themes are the main focus of his life.
His chart is dominated by the 10th house Moon.
The Moon rules the mother. Charles Moon is at 0.25 Taurus.
His Mum’s Sun is at 0.12 Taurus. The odds against that kind of synastry occurring by chance are over 800/1 against.
This is stunningly simple kindergarten astrology.
Charles Moon is in the 10th house of career.
Elizabeth dominates his life and stands in the way of his career goal, so much that he wouldn’t even get a job until he was 74 years old.
When Charles did finally get to be crowned, after her death, transit Pluto had stationed at 0.22 Aquarius, exactly square to his Moon and her Sun.
Elizabeth also has a planet at the top of her chart that dominates the rest. This is Saturn conjunct her Midheaven at the apex of a T square.
So her career is dominated by her sense of duty and responsibility.
Saturn is the principle of limitation. At 24 Scorpio, Elizabeth’s apex Saturn falls right on Charles’ Sun at 22 Scorpio.
You could see Elizabeth’s 70 year reign being driven by a strong desire to stop Charles from getting the job.
Clearly these two had some issues.
This is all documented and I have written about it many times. But what I have just discovered is the extent to which this relationship is karmically driven.
If we progress Elizabeth’s chart to when her son was born.
That T square becomes a Grand Cross.
On 14th November 1948 (when Charles was born) her progressed Sun was exactly (3 minutes orb) square her natal Neptune, and square her Jupiter ( 1/2 degree). It is opposite her Saturn.
Now let’s stop at this point and have a think about this.
Readers of astrology articles are used to ploughing through pages of “this means that and that means this”. Many writers will use long paragraphs packed full of such references, so it’s very easy to skip over them without really processing what we are reading.
But when we are talking about progressions we have to stop and see this moment in terms of a whole lifetime or indeed several lifetimes.
If we look again at Elizabeth’s chart we can see that between her Sun on the 3rd house cusp and her Pluto in the 6th there is nothing at all.
So she would experience no Solar Progressed conjunctions until she was in her 70s.
In fact she would not have a progression anywhere near as powerful as this one unless she’d lived to be 110 years old.
When she was crowned, 5 years later her progressed Venus was square her Pluto and trine her Moon but this is nowhere near comparable.
So why should by far the most powerful progression of her life coincide with the birth of her oldest son?
This is because progressions are not specifically related to events in this life, they are geared to connections being remade with important members of our soul group who have been with us for many lifetimes and have chosen to play a particular role this time round.
Not convinced? Then how about this?
When Charles was born, Elizabeth’s progressed Sun was at 22.05 Taurus, exactly (1/3 degree orb) opposite Charles own Sun, a chance occurrence of over 500/1 against.
No doubt other astrologers have pointed to this progressed connection between mother and son.
But I seriously doubt if anyone has looked at it the other way round.
If we take Charles’ chart back 22.5 years before he was born, to when his mother entered this world, his regressed Sun is exactly opposite his own Moon and therefore also opposite her Sun (with an orb of less than 1/2 degree).
So Charles has exactly the same progressed aspect for Elizabeth’s birth as she had for his one.
Which is bizarre.
But not only that, their progressed/regressed Moon’s do the same thing.
Elizabeth’s progressed Moon for Charles’ birth is at 13 Gemini, sextile her natal Moon at 12 Leo.
Charles regressed Moon for Elizabeth’s birth is at 1 Cancer, sextile his natal Moon at 0 Taurus.
Elizabeth’s progressed Mercury for Charles birth is at 0 Taurus, exactly (orb of 5 minutes) conjunct her Sun and Charles Moon.
Charles regressed Mercury for Elizabeth’s birth is at 22 Libra exactly trine Elizabeth’s Jupiter and sextile her Neptune.
The odds against all this happening by chance are off the scale.”
It goes without saying that the one single event that was most significant in the relationship between Charles and his mother was her death on September 8th 2022 because it led to his coronation on May 6th the following year.
Transit Pluto was square to the Sun of Charles KRC chart with Elizabeth.
It’s also interesting to point out that for Diana’s death in 1997, transit Pluto was conjunct the Mars of this chart.
I have the same age difference with my wife and soulmate (13 years) that Charles and Diana had.
My Karmic Relationship Chart with her has the Sun at 19 Capricorn.
We first met in this life when I was aged 63 and she was 50. Transit Pluto was at 19 Capricorn.
I have devoted most of my astrological life to exploring the astonishingly powerful and life changing transits of Pluto. After 50 years of doing so I have discovered that this is only the tip of the iceberg.
It seems that the Lord of the Underworld is responsible for the comings and goings of souls in this one.
