Lottery-Winning Secondary Progressions

Unlike solar arc directions where the planets maintain the exact same distances from each other that they hold in the natal chart, secondary progressed planets all move at their natural rate of speed, so like transits, they form new aspects to each other over time. These progressions are usually calculated once a year around the time of our birthday, and reveal major themes to play out in our lives in the year to come. Some astrologers read only the transiting Moon due to the quick rate of speed at which it moves (about one degree per month). That’s like trying to write a book using only the letter A. We’re going to examine the secondary progressed chart for each winner, calculated to show the exact positions at the time of the win, then compare it to the natal chart, and finally, we’re going to see how the winning transits triggered the progressed charts to bring home the bacon.

You may not agree with the width of some orbs, and your default judgment for separating aspects may be very strict. Mine tend to be, as well, but here, they are being presented as they really were. Only in places where I point out that “the birth time might be off by a few minutes,” and provide alternative thoughts, were the charts cast for anything other than the recorded time.

Experiment with relocated charts if you wish, but in my experience, secondary progressions should not be relocated, even if the person has moved a great distance from the place of their birth because they are projections in time, not space. However, cast the transit chart for the current residence.
