I am writing this before the projected year begins, but I can already see some highlights due to my natal chart. My ninth house, ruled by Cancer, is associated with higher education and various other matters. One notable connection is that I've started working in a place where I have ample time to study, particularly focusing on Astrology, Coaching, and Biodecoding (natal Moon in Pisces). With my Natal Mars positioned in the ninth house, I find myself spending long hours there, often alone. While being alone for an extended period can be challenging, the fact that I'm doing what I love balances it out. Having a day chart, I hope I won't face any issues, considering Mars is considered malefic. Previously, I was a musician, so taking on a job like this required a certain level of courage (linked to Mars). Dealing with people from diverse backgrounds can be a struggle at times, as some of them, as you might say in English, are a bit "rude hilly billies." In my previous musical teaching career of 15 years, everything seemed relatively easy. However, in this new environment, it feels like a completely different world. Adding to the astrological connections, the ruler of my sixth house is Aries. I'm hopeful that amidst these changes, I'll encounter a beautiful Latin astrologer, especially with the Moon positioned in the ninth house! I HOPE IT HELPS!
Chris, thank you a million times over - your generosity in offering these freee lectures is gratefully received. I am saving up for your courses and look forward to studying with you more. Just incredible.
"I'm going to aim for 90 minutes." This is whenI knew it was going to be good. Concise and wayyyyy over time. Over two hours sounds about right for Chris.
Hi Chris, recently bought your book, and demetra's , thanks for all your hard work and podcasts, i prefer your solo lectures and the serious study content, your work is a game changer and so clearly set out. many thanks.
i just entered an 8H year and my first month i have already experienced so much transformation even though i know this hasn’t even touched the surface of what i am going to encounter. i feel like by next year i will be a completely different person
Namaste and thanks bery much for the informative video and excellent calculator. However i have a doubt when I was in my cancer profected year(im pisces rising 27-12-1970 birth) in june 2011 my career started downsliding. Now my moon is conjunct sadge MC. as a daybirth it has no aspects in natal chart with mars(placidus). So how negative events in job🤔🤔 secondly as u mentioned mars for day birth is malefic, does that means whenever a person in in Aries profection year, it will be negative?
@@flyhigh5066 As far as I understood, the profection year, in which your House with Mars in the Natal Chart will be highlighted, subjektively negative things may occur. F.e. if you have Mars in your 8th House, at the age of 9, 21, 33 and so forth, because of the quality of the 8th House in regard to other peoples Money.
I was hoping you would mention that one cycle of 12 year profections coincide roughly with the Jupiter year, which means that transiting Jupiter will (most of the time) be in the same angle to the profected sign as the angle is between the starting point (ASC in this case) and the position of Jupiter in the birth chart. In other words, if Jupiter transits the profected sign, it is likely to be in the sign of the starting point at birth (or very close)
This technique is really mindblowing. It really makes it so clear how the underlying "script" of the life story is continual, builds upon itself, and things just make so much sense in light of all this.
As an herbalist I am fascinated by the possibilities of medical astrology. I'm often asked for chart interpretations by clients and the transits are still overwhelming for me. This technique you present here is so helpful in narrowing down the important influences in certain - thank you for all the great work and research you do Chris! I love your book as well and to me the art of Hellenistic Astrology really feels right.
Wow, I was skeptical about this technique at first because it seemed to simple, but I am amazed at both the complexity that the simplicity holds and how much it helps me understand my own chart. This video also helped me deepen my understanding of more basic concepts. Looking forward to learning more for you and I’m finally ordering your book. Thank you!
I LOVE your visual lectures/teaching style and cannot wait to be able to take your astrology course. I’ve fallen down a rabbit hole of your videos and have been watching all day.
I have been a student of modern astrology but have become absolutely fascinated with traditional timing techniques. This lecture was absolutely enlightening. As someone coming out of a 6th house-rough year and going into a 7th it’s has shed some light on some events/occurrences in my life. Thank you Chris for the work you do! Your podcast is my go to and without you realising you have walked many many miles with me (through my headphones) and shared so many ah ha moments! 😉
I've always wondered about this type of astrology, but I'm old and didn't want to get into something so deep and new. I am so glad I did. This is very exciting. Thank you both for your time and knowledge and sharing.
Amazing! I love how you manage to balance the thorough explanations with really well chosen examples, and that the same example charts are expanded on going deeper into the technique. I'm looking forward to the 9hr one on the course when I get to it! :)
I love the way you teach! You are truly a modern Valens in my mind. Thank you so much. You are so thorough and concise. I don't remember all of your birth chart but I'm sure your Mercury is very well placed! :)
Thankyou Chris, I'm going to get your book and start reading ! so much to learn,been catching up with your podcasts, really interesting.Great work Chris.
Thank you for a great video. I really like how you take time and go through example charts. I find annual profections to be very useful and actually for the most part quite straight forward and this is what I'm always after - straightforward and clear timing techniques that don't require much gymnastics.
My wife's birthday had me revisit this video + pull out your book. I just realized that being 6 years in age difference - we are experiencing the same axis opposite from each other every year. Not sure how to interpret that but hopefully it means we balance any extremes that befall us haha
Thank you Chris, this was such a good lecture! My mentor uses this technique as well so I was familiar & using this but this gave me so much more meat to chew on & will definitely dive deeper!
Such a good lecture. I'm still digesting it and going back over parts but I've applied this technique to my own sidereal chart and I cannot believe the correlations to the dominant themes of my life and of others. A powerful forensic lense to examine charts.
I love it when it seems you learn the exact right thing at the exact right time. Mercury is activated as my Lord of the Year and it will transit my natal Jupiter at 22 Pisces tomorrow morning. This is also good to know for the context of the coming mercury retrograde, as this will be revisited a couple times.
1:56:00 Also Mars squares Moon and Moon rules the 3rd house, so basically everything points to a Mars, 3rd house related things. By the way, thank you so much for sharing your precious knowledge. You are the best on TH-cam!
I’m glad I revisited this, it’s actually currently helpful. I wanted to wait until near the end of an 8th house Aires profection to both test this out plus figure out the 8th house natal patterns. The only thing I can say of note is that when mars was in libra, it was nasty. (Natal mars in libra also). I had to tell people to ignore me because I was sort of passive aggressively restless. Hitting a deer (which was probably right before or in that transit) during the supply chain shortage where forgetting to add rental to my insurance ended up hitting that second house placement good. But it was also a minor inconvenience that bugged the _____ out of me. It’s going out with a bang with the apparent uranus, north node, and mars conjunction which is exactly on my lot of exaltation, I’m kinda more optimistic about that one. This year has been about keeping stress levels low, those coming together is probably why I’m at a stage of getting back to normal. Been idle a lot this year. Would call it malefic (yet), just suddenly “time to start putting it all into motion”. The other part.. I’ve had 11/08/22 marked on my calendar for a long time, forgot why. That was just weird stuff with that date plus something said on your 2022 forecast. If I’m going into a Taurus 9th profection that lunar eclipse is either going to be nasty, great, or a mixture. (Moon, north node, uranus opposite sun, sn, Mercury and Venus). All that in taurus and scorpio (especially Venus); I’m going to REALLY feel that one. I may revisit the mitigation episode because Saturn seems more malefic than mars, could be a weird scenario where rahu is exaggerating Saturn and Venus (among other placements) is dampening mars. We’ll see. What’s potentially weird is studying astrology may be linked to the 8th with some bridge into the 9th but rulers of both houses are conjunct. I’ll be seeing if that lot of exaltation is a sensitive point soon.. 😆 Mars with Uranus plus others like Mercury, I’ll try to 🫢.. not sure I’d credit a minor car accident to mars, maybe the supply chain part. But even then I’d randomly say something mars in libra like where I had to shut up. I forgot about the “transit” part. Astrology has too many details to remember.
I started studying this tech. some months ago, and I really find value in it. Chris videos help a great deal! I think you do not mention that but the exact grade of the natal planet should have a more exact info, aboutconcrete moment in time of the prediction? I mean, if natal Jupiter it's in the first 10 grades, the stuff relative to that planet would be manifesting around first 4 months of the year? being 1/3 of 30 grades equal to 4 months of 12.
I am currently going through a 9 house Cancer activation and whenever the Moon is growing up to the Full Moon phase I get severe insomnia. I never had sleeping problems in the past. When this house was activated in my childhood I had a period of very intense dreams (once I was laughing out loud because of a joke someone told me in my dream and my parents woke up because of the noise). And when it got activated in my 20s I was in university and I was often studying during the night, so I didn't perceive it as a n issue back then. Also my natal Moon is in Sagittarius so 9th house topics are doubly activated now, but seeing as travel to foreign lands is not an option right now, the only thing left for me to do is to use this time in the "metaphorical Temple” and learn about astrology online.
I have the same placements! Scorpio rising! Enteterd my 9th H year in sept last year. Im a sag moon ...my natal moon is in my 2nd house. I have a sag stellium in that house. However my natal chiron is sitting in my 9th and my natal jupiter is in my 8th house . Ive been so lucky with money ever since !
There are so many factors to consider! This reminds of the time when I studied the criminal code, analyzed situations to determine the crime and decided on penalties. 😂
That was so good to stumble upon, I now have an alternative technique to study while in lockdown...my Lord this year is the moon...in my 7th house...watch this space :)
Looked at enough charts using this technique to be sold on it, Absolutely. I'm really curious to examine MONTHLY profections...Are they as accurate as the yearly? Any plans to do a vid on monthlies? In don't recall any examples in your book?
For beginners such as myself it would sure be nice that when you put up a chart have some sort of pointer pointing to the object in mention. My interest in Astrology started with my membership in A.R.E. ; planetary initiations of the Mithra; Alice Bailey's RAYS ; Max Heindel ; Steiner and even more so with the fact that my Natal Chart is seemingly so accurate.
Very nice video, thanks! In relation to Ted Kennedy 8th House profection - Chriss says it's the house of death, its Ruler is in 3rd as argument for brother's death. In medeavial astrology the 8th house is exclusively death of the horoscope owner. I would love to hear more on this difference in helenistiic astrology vs mediveal. Mediveal argument for losing brother in this chart would be that Jupiter in 8th is the ruler of both 12the and 3rd, signifying loss. 8the could mean some inheritance gain as a result of that. But death-wise the 8th would be exclusively reserved for the native in question.
1:01:47 take it from me as someone who had a benefic (moon) and malefic (Saturn) in my first house profection year. I lost my father and met my wife and got married in the same year. Literally what you say, a wedding and a funeral. Astrology is crazy
I am blessed to not only have Jupiter as my Chart Ruler, but Jupiter is also in sync with my Perfection Years following them from house to house as i progress through them. Lucky me!
Thank you Chris, your lectures are amazing. I would love to know if you consider slow plants like Pluto as malefic impacting by transit or aspect in a profection year. Greetings from Argentina.
on the Lisa Marie example i noticed the lord of her 2nd house (mercury) was in the 8th, & also The joe biden example the lord of the 7th house is in the 12th house in Scorpio was wondering if ruling planets play a part in profections as well?
Yep, definitely! In my full 8 hour lecture on this in my Hellenistic course I go into that, and I circle back around to both of these examples because the condition of the ruler helped to further specify the outcome in those years.
I have learned so much from you in such a short time. You have a teaching gift. I am a beginner and understood and feel I could apply this to my practice. Thank you. I wonder if the ruler planet position in relation to decan position apply here too?
This is so super interesting and it's blowing my mind as I go through my past. The last year I have had my 9th house in Aquarius activated with both Venus and my MC there and the lord of the year being in my seventh house. Not only did I go from Nihilist to studying astrology and tarot reading. It was basically through meeting someone and falling in love that brought this about, however it did not go so well having some pretty heavy love lessons that actually got me more and more spiritual. As I was learning about things I couldn't work out why Jupiter transiting my seventh house just seemed to bring about more pain than anything else but this has gone some way of explaining it. The Saturn energy would've completely just nailed it but without all that bullshit I wouldn't be watching this video now so... Let's see what the next 10th house profection has in store for me.
My partner will enter a 12th house profection year soon, and I am super worried. This is all new to me so I am on the hunt. Im so grateful for this video, thank you! He has Lilith and his north node in that house, ruler of that year is Venus in his 11th house. I am only half way through the video, but Iam hopeful I can put the pieces together. Sending you gratitude!
First off thank you so much for this 🙏 Can anyone please help me with a query I have I'm a pisces rising and the houses on cusps coincide with the whole houses as ruling them I understand that Whole houses are preferred for the Profections. But as you're using this Time lord technique do you exclusively Interprete the chart with whole houses or you can use the placidus system (whose chart I resonate with ) but the profection year is the same For instance my moon in taurus would be in 2nd house placidus but 3rd house in whole houses And this year would be a 5H profection year How do I interprete as Jupiter will soon conjunct moon
So I’m in a profection moon year which means the eclipses have been hitting me hard. Definitely this last eclipse in scorpio. Now I need to look T the other ones, but that last one stood out.
I have a couple of questions: When do profections become active? Right on the person's birthday or can we feel the effects a bit before? Also, are the houses and the planets in the house ruled by the lord of the year activated? For example, it's going to be an 11th house profection year for me, my 11th H is Libra, which is ruled by Venus that I happen to have in that house natally. My moon is in Taurus in the 6th, are the moon and that house activated too since Venus is my lord of the year?
Profections are supposed to become active starting on your solar return, although I sometimes notice a preview happening in the month before a person's birthday. Yes, both houses ruled by the lord of the year are often activated. I actually give some examples of this in my longer class on profections: courses.theastrologyschool.com/courses/annual-profections-timing-technique-class
@@TheAstrologyPodcast thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my questions. I really appreciate it. It's my birthday in a few days and it's the first time I'm going to be paying attention to profections. I am very excited although not very excited about the Venus retrograde period coming up!
I know this will likely never be seen. I just need to vent in this moment. Wwweeellll I guess my 30th year isn't when things ease up. Mars in Aries in the Seventh. My Mars is absolutely brutalized in my chart. Last time around I lost a partner. Honestly, I don't know how much more pressure I can take. It has been going for years now and I just don't know what to do anymore. I don't know how to spin this positively.
maybe your mars has too much Mars in it, it is a small malefic ; the rule with shadow emotions isn't more positive/band aid solutions, more of a matter of sheding light on the shadow just to see what under the surface so to speak. Your stress, your pain has an amazing story to tell but you keep pushing it away *idk, i know i was exposed to bad emotions in this manner"
I have a question if anyone sees this.. are these projections based off of the natal chart? For example, on 57:40 he says that Mars being in 7th in a night chart would be the worst year in her life, but what happens when her 7th house protection year returns? Is the placement of Mars the same? Or not? (Is this natal Mars or transiting Mars?) or is the year for her next 7th house profection just too far away..?
Thanks Chris, extremely informative. It's interesting to learn about ancient astrology, I was at first resistant but due to your podcast I've started to learn more. This past year's annual profection is certainly relevant, as it's a 4th house year with Mars/Jupiter in there. Moved 3x in 8 months, and am about to again, plus weird issues in the homes themselves (transiting Uranus is squaring that Mars). Come August, it will be a 5th house/Leo year, with Sun/Mer/Venus there and since I'm a night chart, I"m looking forward to a lighter tone..and maybe...some fun. One question though...you mention day and night charts...is that contingent on your birth place? I live in Canada, where, in summer, some northern areas night is far shorter than the daytime..and vice versa. Can you clarify what day and night charts are and how to calculate them?
See my previous video on the concept of sect for more information about the distinction between day and night charts: th-cam.com/video/0nVCYidVrNI/w-d-xo.html
Can you (or do you) also then turn the chart and use the profected sign as another ascendant to look at other parts of the native's life during the year of the profection?
Yeah, that is kind of part of the advanced method of profections, where you can actually profect from any house or planet in the chart in order to see how the year will go for specific topics.
@@TheAstrologyPodcast Thanks. That's very cool...Look forward to learning more about this. Combined with zodiacal release, it really does remind me of the interplay of the vimshottari dasha and jaimini chara dasha systems. Is there proof of any historical correlations in the texts? Considering that both Greek and Roman Empires were actively trading with India during this time, it would stand to reason that ideas would move back and forth, no?
@@anakrabanal940 Yes, there was trade going on between the Roman Empire and India by the 1st century, and there was at least one text that was translated from Greek into Sanskrit, which allowed for the exchange of approaches to some extent. I talk about it at one point in a section of my book, titled Hellenistic Astrology. I also did a podcast talking about it with a Vedic astrologer named Kenneth Johnson: theastrologypodcast.com/2015/05/01/ancient-timing-techniques-time-lords-and-dashas/
Ugh how about tips on dealing with astrological anxiety 😒- this technique very accurately described the themes and events of 2023- which were subjectively horrific , and now when applied to 2024- we see a year that’s even worse. ( the zodiacal releasing technique also predicts a disaster ahead) 😥
Thank You Chris💖🧡💛💚💙💜🖤 Soon starting profection year ruled by Mars(in scorpio 3rd house). So interesting as North Node transits in the 8th😲 Natal Mars only aspects Moon in 10th by ecact inconjunct. Day chart...
Love this discussion. I have natal Jupiter in the 2nd house so it always precedes the profected year. So it’d always be the 2nd from profected house. Any feedback on that?
Your natal Jupiter won't move. Your transiting Jupiter may stay pretty much the same relative to your profected house. My natal jupiter is in Libra, 10th house. It will always be there. My profected house for 2021 will be Aquarius, which is where Jupiter recently ingressed. I haven't checked, but presumably Jupiter will move into Pisces late in 2021, and my profected year will be Pisces as well. At least from my birthday on....
Can the exaltation rulers be used as well to get more information? E.g. if the exaltation ruler of a sign is in the 11th House, will 11th House topics be important as well?
This was one where I’m kinda skeptical while viewing it as making logical sense then became more skeptical until it was mentioned you could just check for past patterns. The skepticism is mostly that I’d currently be in an 8th house profection where nothing about it seems relevant and I’ve surely not died yet while the more intense sort of 8th stuff wasn’t actually in that period. “Check patterns..” okay, 8th in aries with libra in mars.. my libra mars gets kinda wild in those years. It’s fair enough to say that mars in libra vents the few times I’ve done questionable things is those periods. Sort of 😳 passive aggressiveness that could be expected with Venus and Pluto with mars. Now I’m only looking at non whole sign variations where there could be overlap into the 9th because that’s historically kind of the pattern. It isn’t like “thud, birthday, it begins.” In general it’s pretty much an active mars related to being kind of indecisive plus confused as you’d expect with that placement. Blending, chiron is definitely 8th but not in aries and it definitely doesn’t fit taurus 9th. Then it shifts to taurus 9th which is actually fun because it’s Venus in libra, nothing in 9th. 8th crazy moves to 9th Venus where it’s a very Venusian pairing discussing 9th house things. I’ll check out another of the episodes for better detail, but just glancing at what would be the estimated timeline.. the mars libra is a frustration point moving to organizing which would make sense going into the 10th after then good ole Jupiter cancer 11th. I wasn’t exactly receptive in my last 9th profection which I refer to a lot where people would say my life philosophy was like this, that, them, etc which took years to actually get to. Probably at the 12th house profection actually. The Saturn transit with moon will be completely over by the 9th house so just may actually be a great period. Looking at 11th house ones; that bugger needs to wake up. The 7th house one was interesting though. Scary? My 9th profection in taurus so Venus is lining up with my travel schedule. Venus could make that possibly problematic… Pluto will be in my 5th for a while at least.
Hey, I have a question. Does a planet that rules two signs activates the other house too? For example, Saturn rules Capricorn and Aquarius. When the profection year falls on the house that Cap rules, is Aquarius house also activated?
So I have a day chart... and when I was 22 I got severely injured/poisoned, and that year was probably the hardest of my entire life so far. I had Jupiter in 11. It was ruled by Aquarius, and my Saturn was in the 1st. I can see the Saturn connection to 1st house Aries, with bodily injury that took me about 2 years to get essentially back to normal, but how the hell was that the most positive year of my life? It was literally the hardest. I'm 24.
Also I'm 24 so I'm in 1st house Aries, ruled by Mars. Mars is in my 9th in sag and is well aspected. Although this was a hard year, it was an adventure and nowhere near as terrifying and hellish as my 11th house profection year. What gives?
Does the profection year start from the beginning of the year, or from when one has their birthday? I'm 41 but didn't turn 41 until May, did I start my profection year for 41 in January or in May?
Hello, I am so happy to have this information right now! I am in an 8th House profection year in Taurus so, Venus is the Lord. Venus will be transiting through Taurus Starting May 16th through June 9th. I was wondering if it just amplifies the aspects that the transits make during that time or if there is any other significance it will bring? Please forgive me if this was answered in the video, I am a beginner astrology student.
great video, thank you! rewatching again.. .i experienced probably the worst period of my life in the last 11th house profection year . Considering it is the bona fortuna house and what i experienced(surgeries,career problems)being not related to significations of that house , I am a little confused..how should i asses the 11th house profections?should i ignore the profected house and concentrate on the lord of the year?
Wealth, Money, Family Peace, Romance coming soon for me ? Next year I will complete 37. I have Day time chart. 2nd House (Gemini/Mercury) coming soon in next year. I'm Taurus Asc. In Gemini 2nd House I have Venus Conjunct Moon Conjunct Fortuna Point. Also Ruhu Conjunct Mercury in Gemini. So 2nd and 5th House Significator Mercury Protection Year in next year. Also Transiting Rahu will Conjunct my Natal Mercury and Rahu First then Moon, Venus and Fortuna Point in Gemini respectively. Thank you!
Thanks Brennan, this is a very good lecture delivered by you. Question: If the Lord of the year is Cancer and the the Moon, then how do you do; I mean the moon does 13 laps a year; do one only count the house it is in when activated? on your birthday?
Just turned 33 this year . Entered my 10th house profection year...and have my Venus in Leo there . However my natal Venus is square Pluto. Venus rules my 7th and 12th. And Uranus is transiting my 7th (Taurus) . I'm a Scorpio ascendant. 😬
Let me know if you have a good example of how profections have worked in your life!
I am writing this before the projected year begins, but I can already see some highlights due to my natal chart. My ninth house, ruled by Cancer, is associated with higher education and various other matters. One notable connection is that I've started working in a place where I have ample time to study, particularly focusing on Astrology, Coaching, and Biodecoding (natal Moon in Pisces).

Adding to the astrological connections, the ruler of my sixth house is Aries. I'm hopeful that amidst these changes, I'll encounter a beautiful Latin astrologer, especially with the Moon positioned in the ninth house!
I HOPE IT HELPS!

There is a good annual profections calculator on Astro-Seek: horoscopes.astro-seek.com/annual-profections-astrology-calculator
Namaste and thanks bery much for the informative video and excellent calculator. However i have a doubt when I was in my cancer profected year(im pisces rising 27-12-1970 birth) in june 2011 my career started downsliding. Now my moon is conjunct sadge MC. as a daybirth it has no aspects in natal chart with mars(placidus). So how negative events in job🤔🤔 secondly as u mentioned mars for day birth is malefic, does that means whenever a person in in Aries profection year, it will be negative?
@@flyhigh5066 As far as I understood, the profection year, in which your House with Mars in the Natal Chart will be highlighted, subjektively negative things may occur. F.e. if you have Mars in your 8th House, at the age of 9, 21, 33 and so forth, because of the quality of the 8th House in regard to other peoples Money.
I was hoping you would mention that one cycle of 12 year profections coincide roughly with the Jupiter year, which means that transiting Jupiter will (most of the time) be in the same angle to the profected sign as the angle is between the starting point (ASC in this case) and the position of Jupiter in the birth chart. In other words, if Jupiter transits the profected sign, it is likely to be in the sign of the starting point at birth (or very close)
@@AndriLindbergs Thanks!

I LOVE your visual lectures/teaching style and cannot wait to be able to take your astrology course. I’ve fallen down a rabbit hole of your videos and have been watching all day.
I have been a student of modern astrology but have become absolutely fascinated with traditional timing techniques. This lecture was absolutely enlightening. As someone coming out of a 6th house-rough year and going into a 7th it’s has shed some light on some events/occurrences in my life.
Thank you Chris for the work you do! Your podcast is my go to and without you realising you have walked many many miles with me (through my headphones) and shared so many ah ha moments! 😉
You inspire as you teach, and you teach with such clarity. Thank you Chris.
I've always wondered about this type of astrology, but I'm old and didn't want to get into something so deep and new. I am so glad I did. This is very exciting. Thank you both for your time and knowledge and sharing.
You are one of my favourite astrologers, thank you for always being super detailed.
Amazing! I love how you manage to balance the thorough explanations with really well chosen examples, and that the same example charts are expanded on going deeper into the technique. I'm looking forward to the 9hr one on the course when I get to it! :)
Thank you so much Chris Brennan! You are such a good teacher! Grazie!
My beloved colleague , I do appreciate your generosity. And in retribution to it, I'm getting your book today!💗💜💗💜💗💜
I love the way you teach! You are truly a modern Valens in my mind. Thank you so much. You are so thorough and concise. I don't remember all of your birth chart but I'm sure your Mercury is very well placed! :)
Chris, thank you! I am so grateful for your hard work! Thank you for sharing with us! So much love and blessing to you and your loved ones!!!
this is really stunning, fantastic work, thank you for excavating and sharing this amazing information
Thankyou Chris, I'm going to get your book and start reading ! so much to learn,been catching up with your podcasts, really interesting.Great work Chris.
Thank you for a great video. I really like how you take time and go through example charts. I find annual profections to be very useful and actually for the most part quite straight forward and this is what I'm always after - straightforward and clear timing techniques that don't require much gymnastics.
This is a fantastic lecture, thank you Chris!!
My wife's birthday had me revisit this video + pull out your book. I just realized that being 6 years in age difference - we are experiencing the same axis opposite from each other every year. Not sure how to interpret that but hopefully it means we balance any extremes that befall us haha
you are a marvelous teacher of astrology!
Thank you Chris, this was such a good lecture! My mentor uses this technique as well so I was familiar & using this but this gave me so much more meat to chew on & will definitely dive deeper!
Such a good lecture. I'm still digesting it and going back over parts but I've applied this technique to my own sidereal chart and I cannot believe the correlations to the dominant themes of my life and of others. A powerful forensic lense to examine charts.
Excellent lecture. I understand why people like this method of astrology
Amazing video. Learn a lot from this alone! Thank you so much ❤
I love it when it seems you learn the exact right thing at the exact right time. Mercury is activated as my Lord of the Year and it will transit my natal Jupiter at 22 Pisces tomorrow morning. This is also good to know for the context of the coming mercury retrograde, as this will be revisited a couple times.
Thank you! This was a great lecture-useful and clearly explained.
You are really great, thank you very much for your generosity. 🙏💫
1:56:00 Also Mars squares Moon and Moon rules the 3rd house, so basically everything points to a Mars, 3rd house related things. By the way, thank you so much for sharing your precious knowledge. You are the best on TH-cam!
I'm starting to love profections now! Your videos are amazing!
I’m glad I revisited this, it’s actually currently helpful.
I wanted to wait until near the end of an 8th house Aires profection to both test this out plus figure out the 8th house natal patterns. The only thing I can say of note is that when mars was in libra, it was nasty. (Natal mars in libra also). I had to tell people to ignore me because I was sort of passive aggressively restless. Hitting a deer (which was probably right before or in that transit) during the supply chain shortage where forgetting to add rental to my insurance ended up hitting that second house placement good. But it was also a minor inconvenience that bugged the _____ out of me. It’s going out with a bang with the apparent uranus, north node, and mars conjunction which is exactly on my lot of exaltation, I’m kinda more optimistic about that one. This year has been about keeping stress levels low, those coming together is probably why I’m at a stage of getting back to normal. Been idle a lot this year. Would call it malefic (yet), just suddenly “time to start putting it all into motion”.
The other part.. I’ve had 11/08/22 marked on my calendar for a long time, forgot why. That was just weird stuff with that date plus something said on your 2022 forecast. If I’m going into a Taurus 9th profection that lunar eclipse is either going to be nasty, great, or a mixture. (Moon, north node, uranus opposite sun, sn, Mercury and Venus). All that in taurus and scorpio (especially Venus); I’m going to REALLY feel that one.
I may revisit the mitigation episode because Saturn seems more malefic than mars, could be a weird scenario where rahu is exaggerating Saturn and Venus (among other placements) is dampening mars. We’ll see.
What’s potentially weird is studying astrology may be linked to the 8th with some bridge into the 9th but rulers of both houses are conjunct.
I’ll be seeing if that lot of exaltation is a sensitive point soon.. 😆
Mars with Uranus plus others like Mercury, I’ll try to 🫢.. not sure I’d credit a minor car accident to mars, maybe the supply chain part. But even then I’d randomly say something mars in libra like where I had to shut up.
I forgot about the “transit” part. Astrology has too many details to remember.
I started studying this tech. some months ago, and I really find value in it. Chris videos help a great deal! I think you do not mention that but the exact grade of the natal planet should have a more exact info, aboutconcrete moment in time of the prediction? I mean, if natal Jupiter it's in the first 10 grades, the stuff relative to that planet would be manifesting around first 4 months of the year? being 1/3 of 30 grades equal to 4 months of 12.
I am currently going through a 9 house Cancer activation and whenever the Moon is growing up to the Full Moon phase I get severe insomnia. I never had sleeping problems in the past. When this house was activated in my childhood I had a period of very intense dreams (once I was laughing out loud because of a joke someone told me in my dream and my parents woke up because of the noise). And when it got activated in my 20s I was in university and I was often studying during the night, so I didn't perceive it as a n issue back then. Also my natal Moon is in Sagittarius so 9th house topics are doubly activated now, but seeing as travel to foreign lands is not an option right now, the only thing left for me to do is to use this time in the "metaphorical Temple” and learn about astrology online.
I have the same placements! Scorpio rising! Enteterd my 9th H year in sept last year. Im a sag moon ...my natal moon is in my 2nd house. I have a sag stellium in that house. However my natal chiron is sitting in my 9th and my natal jupiter is in my 8th house . Ive been so lucky with money ever since !
Thanks, Chris for making this available, I would love to unpack these ideas and techniques, they resonate greatly with me.
x HC
Chris thank you so much for sharing so much........ you are a super person
Great session appreciate the examples that clearly explain the technique...thank you 👍👏🙏
There are so many factors to consider! This reminds of the time when I studied the criminal code, analyzed situations to determine the crime and decided on penalties. 😂
Very clear and thorough explanation.
That was so good to stumble upon, I now have an alternative technique to study while in lockdown...my Lord this year is the moon...in my 7th house...watch this space :)
Thank you Chris, amazing lecture!
Thank you for this wonderful knowledge 🧡
so informative and I learned so much - thank you!
Looked at enough charts using this technique to be sold on it, Absolutely. I'm really curious to examine MONTHLY profections...Are they as accurate as the yearly? Any plans to do a vid on monthlies? In don't recall any examples in your book?
For beginners such as myself it would sure be nice that when you put up a chart have some sort of pointer pointing to the object in mention. My interest in Astrology started with my membership in A.R.E. ; planetary initiations of the Mithra; Alice Bailey's RAYS ; Max Heindel ; Steiner and even more so with the fact that my Natal Chart is seemingly so accurate.
Thank you for making all these amazing videos
Very nice video, thanks! In relation to Ted Kennedy 8th House profection - Chriss says it's the house of death, its Ruler is in 3rd as argument for brother's death. In medeavial astrology the 8th house is exclusively death of the horoscope owner. I would love to hear more on this difference in helenistiic astrology vs mediveal. Mediveal argument for losing brother in this chart would be that Jupiter in 8th is the ruler of both 12the and 3rd, signifying loss. 8the could mean some inheritance gain as a result of that. But death-wise the 8th would be exclusively reserved for the native in question.
1:01:47 take it from me as someone who had a benefic (moon) and malefic (Saturn) in my first house profection year. I lost my father and met my wife and got married in the same year. Literally what you say, a wedding and a funeral. Astrology is crazy
Thank you for sharing the time-lord profection technique
When it is a global pandemic and you are in a 12th house year 🤣
Pandemic my arse
Hey you still here? 🙏
@@jesselle_Damn, no response 😢💔
I am blessed to not only have Jupiter as my Chart Ruler, but Jupiter is also in sync with my Perfection Years following them from house to house as i progress through them. Lucky me!
Thanks for this great video Chris.
Thank you Chris, your lectures are amazing.
I would love to know if you consider slow plants like Pluto as malefic impacting by transit or aspect in a profection year. Greetings from Argentina.
on the Lisa Marie example i noticed the lord of her 2nd house (mercury) was in the 8th, & also The joe biden example the lord of the 7th house is in the 12th house in Scorpio was wondering if ruling planets play a part in profections as well?
Yep, definitely! In my full 8 hour lecture on this in my Hellenistic course I go into that, and I circle back around to both of these examples because the condition of the ruler helped to further specify the outcome in those years.
The Astrology School Thank u im currently studying profection and have been reading your book for a while now.
Thank you! you are an excellent teacher! 🌟👏👏
Super class and explanation thank you so much but I probably won't move back to Denver.
I have learned so much from you in such a short time. You have a teaching gift. I am a beginner and understood and feel I could apply this to my practice. Thank you. I wonder if the ruler planet position in relation to decan position apply here too?
Thank you as always for your generous offerings. This was very clearly explained and my interest in timing techniques is piqued, for sure!
This is holy grail, THANKS A LOT !
This is so super interesting and it's blowing my mind as I go through my past. The last year I have had my 9th house in Aquarius activated with both Venus and my MC there and the lord of the year being in my seventh house. Not only did I go from Nihilist to studying astrology and tarot reading. It was basically through meeting someone and falling in love that brought this about, however it did not go so well having some pretty heavy love lessons that actually got me more and more spiritual. As I was learning about things I couldn't work out why Jupiter transiting my seventh house just seemed to bring about more pain than anything else but this has gone some way of explaining it. The Saturn energy would've completely just nailed it but without all that bullshit I wouldn't be watching this video now so... Let's see what the next 10th house profection has in store for me.
I never used whole sign till this day. So blown away by some aspect that I find. Damn, everything clicked immediately. Why this and why that😭😭😭
My partner will enter a 12th house profection year soon, and I am super worried. This is all new to me so I am on the hunt. Im so grateful for this video, thank you!
He has Lilith and his north node in that house, ruler of that year is Venus in his 11th house. I am only half way through the video, but Iam hopeful I can put the pieces together. Sending you gratitude!
Excellent lecture, thank you very much!
Thank you for This!
Absolutely fascinating.
First off thank you so much for this 🙏
Can anyone please help me with a query I have
I'm a pisces rising and the houses on cusps coincide with the whole houses as ruling them
I understand that Whole houses are preferred for the Profections.
But as you're using this Time lord technique do you exclusively Interprete the chart with whole houses or you can use the placidus system (whose chart I resonate with ) but the profection year is the same
For instance my moon in taurus would be in 2nd house placidus but 3rd house in whole houses
And this year would be a 5H profection year
How do I interprete as
Jupiter will soon conjunct moon
So I’m in a profection moon year which means the eclipses have been hitting me hard. Definitely this last eclipse in scorpio. Now I need to look T the other ones, but that last one stood out.
I have a couple of questions:
When do profections become active? Right on the person's birthday or can we feel the effects a bit before?
Also, are the houses and the planets in the house ruled by the lord of the year activated? For example, it's going to be an 11th house profection year for me, my 11th H is Libra, which is ruled by Venus that I happen to have in that house natally. My moon is in Taurus in the 6th, are the moon and that house activated too since Venus is my lord of the year?
Profections are supposed to become active starting on your solar return, although I sometimes notice a preview happening in the month before a person's birthday.
Yes, both houses ruled by the lord of the year are often activated. I actually give some examples of this in my longer class on profections: courses.theastrologyschool.com/courses/annual-profections-timing-technique-class
@@TheAstrologyPodcast thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my questions. I really appreciate it. It's my birthday in a few days and it's the first time I'm going to be paying attention to profections. I am very excited although not very excited about the Venus retrograde period coming up!
I know this will likely never be seen. I just need to vent in this moment. Wwweeellll I guess my 30th year isn't when things ease up. Mars in Aries in the Seventh. My Mars is absolutely brutalized in my chart. Last time around I lost a partner. Honestly, I don't know how much more pressure I can take. It has been going for years now and I just don't know what to do anymore. I don't know how to spin this positively.
Thank you for your work. The hundreds of episodes have been such a fantastic source of information.
maybe your mars has too much Mars in it, it is a small malefic ; the rule with shadow emotions isn't more positive/band aid solutions, more of a matter of sheding light on the shadow just to see what under the surface so to speak. Your stress, your pain has an amazing story to tell but you keep pushing it away *idk, i know i was exposed to bad emotions in this manner"
I have a question if anyone sees this.. are these projections based off of the natal chart? For example, on 57:40 he says that Mars being in 7th in a night chart would be the worst year in her life, but what happens when her 7th house protection year returns? Is the placement of Mars the same? Or not? (Is this natal Mars or transiting Mars?) or is the year for her next 7th house profection just too far away..?
I got my answer at 1:00 lol
Thanks. Great video.
Thanks, Chris
Thanks Chris, extremely informative. It's interesting to learn about ancient astrology, I was at first resistant but due to your podcast I've started to learn more. This past year's annual profection is certainly relevant, as it's a 4th house year with Mars/Jupiter in there. Moved 3x in 8 months, and am about to again, plus weird issues in the homes themselves (transiting Uranus is squaring that Mars). Come August, it will be a 5th house/Leo year, with Sun/Mer/Venus there and since I'm a night chart, I"m looking forward to a lighter tone..and maybe...some fun.
One question though...you mention day and night charts...is that contingent on your birth place? I live in Canada, where, in summer, some northern areas night is far shorter than the daytime..and vice versa. Can you clarify what day and night charts are and how to calculate them?
See my previous video on the concept of sect for more information about the distinction between day and night charts: th-cam.com/video/0nVCYidVrNI/w-d-xo.html
Hey Chris! Do the nodes become active when they're in the profected sign? Sorry if you said that in the video and I missed it!
This is brilliant.
Great input Thanks God bless
Can you (or do you) also then turn the chart and use the profected sign as another ascendant to look at other parts of the native's life during the year of the profection?
Yeah, that is kind of part of the advanced method of profections, where you can actually profect from any house or planet in the chart in order to see how the year will go for specific topics.
@@TheAstrologyPodcast Thanks. That's very cool...Look forward to learning more about this. Combined with zodiacal release, it really does remind me of the interplay of the vimshottari dasha and jaimini chara dasha systems. Is there proof of any historical correlations in the texts? Considering that both Greek and Roman Empires were actively trading with India during this time, it would stand to reason that ideas would move back and forth, no?
@@anakrabanal940 Yes, there was trade going on between the Roman Empire and India by the 1st century, and there was at least one text that was translated from Greek into Sanskrit, which allowed for the exchange of approaches to some extent. I talk about it at one point in a section of my book, titled Hellenistic Astrology. I also did a podcast talking about it with a Vedic astrologer named Kenneth Johnson: theastrologypodcast.com/2015/05/01/ancient-timing-techniques-time-lords-and-dashas/
@@TheAstrologyPodcast Will definitely check that out. Thanks!
Ugh how about tips on dealing with astrological anxiety 😒- this technique very accurately described the themes and events of 2023- which were subjectively horrific , and now when applied to 2024- we see a year that’s even worse. ( the zodiacal releasing technique also predicts a disaster ahead) 😥
Thank You Chris💖🧡💛💚💙💜🖤 Soon starting profection year ruled by Mars(in scorpio 3rd house). So interesting as North Node transits in the 8th😲 Natal Mars only aspects Moon in 10th by ecact inconjunct. Day chart...
This was helpful, thank you
Love this discussion. I have natal Jupiter in the 2nd house so it always precedes the profected year. So it’d always be the 2nd from profected house. Any feedback on that?
Your natal Jupiter won't move. Your transiting Jupiter may stay pretty much the same relative to your profected house. My natal jupiter is in Libra, 10th house. It will always be there. My profected house for 2021 will be Aquarius, which is where Jupiter recently ingressed. I haven't checked, but presumably Jupiter will move into Pisces late in 2021, and my profected year will be Pisces as well. At least from my birthday on....
Can the exaltation rulers be used as well to get more information? E.g. if the exaltation ruler of a sign is in the 11th House, will 11th House topics be important as well?
Saved ! Bought your booked a few months back and I am a first year student with Adam Nightlight25 class . Thank you for sharing .
This was one where I’m kinda skeptical while viewing it as making logical sense then became more skeptical until it was mentioned you could just check for past patterns. The skepticism is mostly that I’d currently be in an 8th house profection where nothing about it seems relevant and I’ve surely not died yet while the more intense sort of 8th stuff wasn’t actually in that period. “Check patterns..” okay, 8th in aries with libra in mars.. my libra mars gets kinda wild in those years. It’s fair enough to say that mars in libra vents the few times I’ve done questionable things is those periods. Sort of 😳 passive aggressiveness that could be expected with Venus and Pluto with mars.
Now I’m only looking at non whole sign variations where there could be overlap into the 9th because that’s historically kind of the pattern. It isn’t like “thud, birthday, it begins.” In general it’s pretty much an active mars related to being kind of indecisive plus confused as you’d expect with that placement. Blending, chiron is definitely 8th but not in aries and it definitely doesn’t fit taurus 9th. Then it shifts to taurus 9th which is actually fun because it’s Venus in libra, nothing in 9th. 8th crazy moves to 9th Venus where it’s a very Venusian pairing discussing 9th house things. I’ll check out another of the episodes for better detail, but just glancing at what would be the estimated timeline.. the mars libra is a frustration point moving to organizing which would make sense going into the 10th after then good ole Jupiter cancer 11th. I wasn’t exactly receptive in my last 9th profection which I refer to a lot where people would say my life philosophy was like this, that, them, etc which took years to actually get to. Probably at the 12th house profection actually. The Saturn transit with moon will be completely over by the 9th house so just may actually be a great period. Looking at 11th house ones; that bugger needs to wake up. The 7th house one was interesting though. Scary? My 9th profection in taurus so Venus is lining up with my travel schedule. Venus could make that possibly problematic… Pluto will be in my 5th for a while at least.
Hey, I have a question. Does a planet that rules two signs activates the other house too? For example, Saturn rules Capricorn and Aquarius. When the profection year falls on the house that Cap rules, is Aquarius house also activated?
Yes, it does. You'll usually see both topics come into play at different points in the year.
@@TheAstrologyPodcast Wow! Thank you so much. Love your videos.
So I have a day chart... and when I was 22 I got severely injured/poisoned, and that year was probably the hardest of my entire life so far. I had Jupiter in 11. It was ruled by Aquarius, and my Saturn was in the 1st. I can see the Saturn connection to 1st house Aries, with bodily injury that took me about 2 years to get essentially back to normal, but how the hell was that the most positive year of my life? It was literally the hardest. I'm 24.
Also I'm 24 so I'm in 1st house Aries, ruled by Mars. Mars is in my 9th in sag and is well aspected. Although this was a hard year, it was an adventure and nowhere near as terrifying and hellish as my 11th house profection year. What gives?
Does the profection year start from the beginning of the year, or from when one has their birthday? I'm 41 but didn't turn 41 until May, did I start my profection year for 41 in January or in May?
Hey, Chris. What happens if born at exact sunset/sunrise? What kind of chart is designated for these instances?
ThankU for posting.
Hello, I am so happy to have this information right now! I am in an 8th House profection year in Taurus so, Venus is the Lord. Venus will be transiting through Taurus Starting May 16th through June 9th. I was wondering if it just amplifies the aspects that the transits make during that time or if there is any other significance it will bring? Please forgive me if this was answered in the video, I am a beginner astrology student.
great video, thank you! rewatching again..
.i experienced probably the worst period of my life in the last 11th house profection year . Considering it is the bona fortuna house and what i experienced(surgeries,career problems)being not related to significations of that house , I am a little confused..how should i asses the 11th house profections?should i ignore the profected house and concentrate on the lord of the year?
Many thanks for the handy handouts, Chris!
Wealth, Money, Family Peace, Romance coming soon for me ?
Next year I will complete 37. I have Day time chart. 2nd House (Gemini/Mercury) coming soon in next year. I'm Taurus Asc. In Gemini 2nd House I have Venus Conjunct Moon Conjunct Fortuna Point. Also Ruhu Conjunct Mercury in Gemini. So 2nd and 5th House Significator Mercury Protection Year in next year. Also Transiting Rahu will Conjunct my Natal Mercury and Rahu First then Moon, Venus and Fortuna Point in Gemini respectively. Thank you!
Thanks Brennan, this is a very good lecture delivered by you. Question: If the Lord of the year is Cancer and the the Moon, then how do you do; I mean the moon does 13 laps a year; do one only count the house it is in when activated? on your birthday?
When either of the luminaries are activated then the lunations become important that year, and especially solar and lunar eclipses.
I have a day chart and I have Mars conjunct Jupiter, lol. They're in different signs, though, so they're not activated at the same time.
Just turned 33 this year . Entered my 10th house profection year...and have my Venus in Leo there . However my natal Venus is square Pluto.
Venus rules my 7th and 12th. And Uranus is transiting my 7th (Taurus) . I'm a Scorpio ascendant. 😬
