Questions from people born in August 1947

As of 3 Nov 2026, the third return window opens Aug 2034, in about 8 years, and the first exact pass falls between 24 Aug 2035 and 26 Sep 2035, depending on the day.

Why do some people born in August 1947 get one exact pass and others three?

Each year Saturn appears to stop, back up for a few months and move forward again. If your birth degree sits inside one of those loops, Saturn crosses it three times; otherwise once. Across August 1947 the birth degree moves past the edge of a loop, so 1 Aug 1947 gets one exact pass, 15 Aug 1947 gets three exact passes and 31 Aug 1947 gets three exact passes.

Do I need my birth time?

No. Saturn moved about 4° across the whole of August 1947, so your day matters far more than your hour. Noon is used on this page; the free preview takes a time if you have one.
