Okay, so I’ve been messing around with astrology charts lately, and I stumbled upon this thing called the “Part of Fortune.” Apparently, when the Sun conjuncts your Part of Fortune, it’s a big deal. I decided to dig in and see what all the fuss was about, and, well, track it in my own life.
First, I pulled up my birth chart. I use this app—it’s pretty straightforward. You just plug in your birth date, time, and place, and boom, there’s your chart.
Then, I located my Part of Fortune. It looks like a little “x” inside a circle. I noticed that in my chart, it’s in Libra. I wrote that down, important detail. I located my sun, the easy circle with a dot in the center.
Tracking the Transits
This is where it got a little tricky. I needed to figure out when the Sun would be transiting (moving through) the same sign and degree as my Part of Fortune. I mean, you’ve seen your local news present the weather, right? This is the same concept, only in a different context.
- I started checking a transit calendar. I found some online, just basic tables showing where the planets are on any given day.
- I kept an eye out for when the Sun entered Libra.
- Then, I watched as the Sun moved degree by degree through Libra.
It took a while, but finally, I saw the Sun was getting close to the exact degree of my Part of Fortune. I marked the date on my calendar – October 15th. Okay, game on!
The Day Of
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting fireworks. But I did try to be more mindful that day. I focused on activities that felt aligned with Libra – things like connecting with friends, appreciating art, trying to be fair and balanced in my interactions.
I spent some time that afternoon just chilling in a park, enjoying the scenery. I had a really good conversation with a friend I hadn’t talked to in a while. We ironed out a small misunderstanding, and it felt good to restore the harmony.
I also decided to treat myself to a nice piece of art. Nothing fancy, just a small print that I liked. It felt like a good way to honor the Libra energy.
The Aftermath
Did anything magical happen? Not really. But, I did feel a sense of… ease. It’s hard to explain. Like things were flowing a bit better. I felt more connected to the people around me, and I felt more appreciative of the beauty in my life.
I continued to pay attention in the days and weeks that followed. It’s like I was more attuned to opportunities for connection and creativity. I started a new project that I’d been putting off, and it flowed surprisingly well.
Overall, it was a cool experiment. It’s not like my life changed overnight, but I do think it helped me tap into something positive. I plan to keep tracking these transits and seeing how they play out. It’s a fun way to learn more about astrology and, more importantly, about myself.
