Your Planetary Transits Grouped Transit Tables

If the 'Append to output' checkbox is unchecked then the output textbox is cleared before new output. If it is checked then new output is appended to the existing output. This makes it possible to group related transit tables. For example, one may get the transit table for Jung's Uranus return using three different sets of orb values: 15°, 10° and 5°; 10°, 5° and 3° and 3°, 2° and 1°. Writing the output to a file produces: Jung's Uranus return for orbs 15°, 10°, 5°, 3° and 1°

Here is another example of grouped transit tables. As noted in Examples from the Life of Friedrich Nietzsche, in January 1883, in the words of Richard Tarnas, "An explosion of creative power overtook him [Nietzsche], and Thus Spoke Zarathustra poured forth in an onrush of inspired clarity, pathos, and beauty." The transit tables (for orbs 7°, 5° and 3°) given in Nietzsche's personal transits 1882-1883 show that in January 1883:

• Mercury was twice exactly trine to Nietzsche's natal Sun (once on January 24)
• Mars was exactly square to his natal Sun on January 23
• Jupiter was exactly trine to his natal Sun on January 24
• The Sun was exactly trine to his natal Mercury on January 24
• The Sun was exactly sextile to his natal Uranus on January 23
• Mercury was exactly sextile to his natal Uranus on January 9
• Mercury was exactly conjunct to his natal Neptune on January 22
• Jupiter was within 3° of exact trine to his natal Neptune throughout January
• Saturn was within 3° of exact square to his natal Neptune throughout January
• Mars was exactly square to his natal Pluto on January 24
• Jupiter was exactly sextile to his natal Pluto on January 14
• Mercury was twice exactly sextile to his natal Pluto (once on January 26)

Thus from January 22 to January 26 among Nietszche's personal transits there were three exact trines, four exact sextiles, two exact squares and an exact conjunction — quite a lot in just five days. And nearly half of these exact aspects (two trines, one sextile and one conjunction) involved Mercury, the planet of thought and communcation.
