Transiting Planets in Houses...?

[lz241113]

Heil Fellow SS.
I'm just wondering if I'm right about this...(I know I can ask my GD or Satan, but these groups are also here to help, right?)
So from deductive reasoning, I've come to the conclusion that planets transit your houses this way...

- Lets say, for the sake of argument, that my first house is mostly in Taurus, and partly in Gemini according to my natal chart (it's not, just an example). When a planet enters Taurus, is it transiting my first house? And will it do so until partly into Gemini?

- Also, I assume that to gauge it's possible effects on me I would have to take into account the other planets that are in my first house according to my natal chart and the relations between all of these? I feel I'm missing something here, like maybe I need a Solar Return chart or a lunar one to really analyse this?
I'm very new to this, so please be patient in your replies

Thanks in advance!

You're almost correct. Say your hypothetical ascendant is at 10 degrees of Taurus and the 2nd House begins at 10 degrees of Gemini. This 30-degree space between Taurus and Gemini is your "first house". A planet will be transiting your first house only when it reaches 10 degrees of Taurus, and will stay there until it reaches 10 degrees of Gemini. If the planet has just entered Taurus, then it's still in the 12th House.

House sizes may vary greatly depending on where on the world and which part of the day you were born. Every house begins at a certain degree (the house cusp) and ends at a certain degree (the next house cusp), and these are fixed. In transits and progressions, you'll always use the same house cusp degrees.

Any planet in your natal 1st house will be affected by planets transiting your 1st house as soon as they're close enough. If you have, for example, natal Mars at 3 degrees of Gemini (therefore on your first house), transiting Jupiter, now also in Gemini, is conjunct your natal Mars.

Solar and Lunar returns are different charts cast at the exact moment your Sun/Moon reaches its natal position. A Solar Return happens once a year and a Lunar Return happens once a month. They provide a very broad view of how your year/month is going to be, but you don't really need them to analyse your transiting planets.

I hope I was able to explain it well. It's way easier to understand this by looking at an actual chart.

Thank you f.follets!
You're answer is very clear and precise. I didn't include degrees in my question, but I know exactly what you mean. I've looked at my Natal chart and have been analysing it as best I can...that's how I came to the possible explanation I posted about transiting planets.
I'm glad I wasn't too far off. Astrology is quite intricate, but absolutely worth learning...very interesting stuff. Thanks again for your reply.
