4 key cycles

Planetary returns

Each planet opens a new cycle the moment it returns to its natal position.

Venus return

Venus return • ~1 year

Venus returns to its natal position roughly once a year — a sensible moment to reconsider what you value in love and money. A year with a well-placed Venus tends to favour weddings, deals and a change of appearance.

Mars return

Mars return • ~2 years

Mars points to where your energy and initiative tend to go over the next two years. The house Mars occupies in the return chart shows where being active is likely to pay off.

Jupiter return

The cycle of expansion • ~12 years

Roughly once every 12 years Jupiter returns to its natal position — a useful point to reconsider your values and goals. Ages 12, 24, 36 and 48 tend to mark the larger shifts.

Saturn return

A test of maturity • ~29 years

The cycle most people feel the hardest. Around 29-30, life asks how much you have actually grown up. Saturn shows where discipline and responsibility are being asked of you.

What readers tell us

Charlotte

Charlotte, 23

A friend sent me the link. I read up on my Venus return — and, sure enough, my relationships shifted that year.

James

James, 43

I use it to plan around the business. My Jupiter return lined up with the best year of my career.

Eleanor

Eleanor, 47

After my Saturn return at 29, things settled into place. I rather wish I'd known about it sooner.

Answers to your questions

Frequently asked questions

What is a planetary return?
It is the moment a transiting planet comes back to the exact degree of the zodiac it held at your birth. Each return marks the start of a fresh cycle in that planet's area of life.
How does it differ from an ordinary horoscope?
An ordinary horoscope works from your Sun sign alone. Planetary returns are a personal calculation built from the exact coordinates of your own natal chart.
What is a Venus return?
A Venus return is a chart cast for the moment Venus comes back to its natal position. It maps the year's trends in love, money and appearance — the weather, not the script.
What is a Mars return?
A Mars return is the chart of Mars coming home to its natal degree. It points to where your energy, initiative — and the occasional friction — tend to land over the next 2 years.
What does a retrograde return mean?
If a planet is retrograde at the moment of return, that area of life usually asks to be revisited and reworked. It may not settle on the first attempt.
How often should I check?
Venus and Mars, once a year. Jupiter, once every 12 years. Saturn, once every 29 years. We'll let you know before each return falls due.
