Some astrology can be more difficult than others, and when dealing with progressions, there are a few that can be notorious with their challenges. Four that we'll cover are:
- the progressed Moon in Scorpio - the progressed Moon in the natal eighth house - progressed planets in the natal twelfth house - progressed planets turning retrograde or direct What are progressions?
The progressed chart is created by adding one day to your date of birth for every year you’ve been alive to create a new chart reflective of your maturation and growth. This chart can also be used in predictive analysis. Much of progressions isn’t really positive or negative, and simply shows us evolving and aging.
You can create a progressed chart for free on astro.com; add your birth data, and in Extended Chart Selection, select Progressed chart from the dropdown menu, and then generate. It'll show your progressed chart for that exact day. The Progressed Moon in Scorpio or the 8th House
The progressed Moon is the fastest-travelling progressed planet, moving through all 12 signs by the time we’re in our mid-20’s. The most difficult time of his journey during the time the Moon is speeding through the Zodiac is usually when the progressed Moon is in Scorpio or in your natal 8th house.
Scorpio is the natural ruler of the 8th house, so the impact of each is very similar. Scorpio/the 8th house rule the darker side of ourselves, the things we hold deep inside because we’re afraid to face them, and our inner demons, so these transits can bring that out. We may have to confront those fears and inner demons, and go to that space within ourselves where our darkest parts lie. How to conquer the progressed Moon in Scorpio or the 8th house: The first thing you have to do is not fight it. We tend to want to resist because the energy is scary, but we’re experiencing it for a reason. Instead of just letting it happen to you, take some control (another thing ruled by Scorpio/8th house), and willingly focus on issues deep within, the darkness that needs light shone on it, and the demons that need to be slayed. Scorpio and the 8th house are also ruled by Pluto, the planet of transformation, so this is an excellent period for a transformation. Often, a transformation can conquer any of the challenging energy and keep it at bay. If the progressed Moon is in Scorpio, focus on transforming with the natal house the progressed Moon is touring; if the progressed Moon is in the natal eighth house, focus on transforming with the sign the progressed Moon is in.

When one of the fast-moving progressed planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars) enters your natal 12th house, this tends to hide the energy associated with that planet. This is because the 12th house is the house of the hidden, and hides whatever enters. If you don’t have any 12th house planets in your natal chart, you can find this particularly difficult since you’re not used to the challenges associated with 12th house energy (misunderstandings, insecurity, worry and doubt, hiding in the shadows, low energy).
How to conquer progressed personal planets in the natal 12th house: 12th house stuff is a great time for turning inward, reflecting, becoming introspective, and digging into your subconscious mind. You can work to gain more understanding of issues, motivations, and desires, and this can help you gain insights into yourself, others, and work on letting go of baggage from the past that has weighed you down. The goal of this is to free you up to be ready to break out once the progressed planet enters your 1st house. You should work to shed as much as you can, and this can be an important time for a big ending in your life. This may seem emotional at the time it occurs, but ultimately paves the way for a big new journey with the first house.

When a body appears to be moving backward through the Zodiac, this is called retrograde motion. When the body stops appearing to move backward and goes forward again, this is called turning direct. This can occur in your progressed chart with a progressed planet turning retrograde or direct, and it tends to be pretty significant.
The energy is super strong, and it can last for many years in your life. This can leave you feeling out of balance if you don't get some control of it, and it can be quite unsettling initially as you feel this shifting with whatever the planet rules in your life. When a person has a natal planet that is retrograde, especially Mercury, Venus, or Mars, this has a major impact on their personality and life, and they tend to operate differently than what they'd think is "normal". This can happen sometimes with progressed planets turning retrograde or direct, and the usual way they operate changes to some degree. This can also trigger big developments in a person's life, life-altering occurrences. This can be good or bad, but no matter what, it's big. These can be brand new events; they can also be big second chances. How to conquer progressed planets turning retrograde or direct: First, you need to get some control over this, so try focusing on whatever the planet itself rules, or whatever the sign the planet is in rules, and think about changes you can make or what you can create related to that. Don't be afraid to go big. Second, go with the changes. This is a big shift in your life, and resisting it won't help you, nor will it stop what's happening. Allow yourself to be flexible and to go with the flow of the changes you're experiencing and creating. This is going to be a big issue if you've got a lot of fixed energy, so lots of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius; but if so, flexibility might be an issue you're meant to work through at this time. And third, make sure to take care of yourself. It's easy to get overwhelmed and let anxiety kick in, and some very well do suffer from mental health issues thanks to this shift of energy, so make sure you're taking care of your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical needs.
