Transit Cycles: Essence and Transit Letters 🚂
Your Life Has Seasons — Let’s Learn to Read Them!
Imagine your life is like a long train journey. The train doesn’t just zoom straight ahead — it passes through different landscapes. Some years feel like sunny meadows. Others feel like dense forests or high mountains.
Transit Cycles are like a special map that shows you what “scenery” you’ll be traveling through each year of your life!
🌟 Essence Cycle Overview
What is the Essence?
Think of the Essence Number as the “weather report” for your year. Just like you’d check if it’s going to rain before going outside, the Essence tells you what kind of energy is surrounding you.
Simple Example:
- Your friend has an Essence of 5 this year → Lots of change and adventure!
- Your mom has an Essence of 4 → A year of hard work and building things
The Essence comes from three letters working together:
- A letter from your First Name (Physical)
- A letter from your Middle Name (Mental)
- A letter from your Last Name (Spiritual)
Each letter has a number. Add them up, and you get your Essence!

🔢 Calculate Essence Number
Step-by-Step: Finding Your Essence
Let’s learn with a friend named Sarah Jane Miller.
Step 1: Write out each name letter by letter
Each letter rules for a certain number of years (its number value):
- A=1 year, B=2 years, C=3 years… and so on
Letter Values Chart:
| Letter | Value | Letter | Value | Letter | Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A, J, S | 1 | B, K, T | 2 | C, L, U | 3 |
| D, M, V | 4 | E, N, W | 5 | F, O, X | 6 |
| G, P, Y | 7 | H, Q, Z | 8 | I, R | 9 |
Step 2: Create the Transit Timeline
For “SARAH”:
- S = 1 year (age 0)
- A = 1 year (age 1)
- R = 9 years (ages 2-10)
- A = 1 year (age 11)
- H = 8 years (ages 12-19)
- Then it repeats!
Step 3: Add the three Transit values for any year
At age 25:
- First Name Transit (Physical): Let’s say = 1
- Middle Name Transit (Mental): Let’s say = 5
- Last Name Transit (Spiritual): Let’s say = 4
Essence = 1 + 5 + 4 = 10 → 1+0 = 1
The Essence for age 25 is 1 (New Beginnings!)

🏃 Physical Transit
Your Body’s Journey Through Time
The Physical Transit comes from your First Name. It shows how your body and physical world changes each year.
Think of it like this: Your first name is like your body’s schedule book!
Example with “SARAH”:
| Age | Letter | Years Active | Physical Theme |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | S | 1 year | New physical start |
| 1 | A | 1 year | Independent action |
| 2-10 | R | 9 years | High energy, travel |
| 11 | A | 1 year | Self-reliance |
| 12-19 | H | 8 years | Hard work period |
Physical Transit Letter Meanings:
- A Transit: You feel energetic and want to do things YOUR way
- R Transit: Lots of movement and perhaps some travels
- H Transit: Physical challenges but also physical rewards
- S Transit: Nervous energy, need to stay calm
🧠 Mental Transit
Your Mind’s Journey Through Time
The Mental Transit comes from your Middle Name. It shows how your thinking and emotions develop.
Think of it like this: Your middle name is your brain’s instruction book!
Example with “JANE”:
| Age | Letter | Years Active | Mental Theme |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | J | 1 year | Original ideas |
| 1-9 | A | 1 year | Independent thinking |
| 2-10 | N | 5 years | Curious mind |
| 11-16 | E | 5 years | Emotional growth |
Mental Transit Letter Meanings:
- J Transit: Creative thoughts, unique ideas pop up
- A Transit: Think for yourself, mental independence
- N Transit: Nervous but curious, ask many questions
- E Transit: Emotional experiences teach you
No Middle Name? Some people don’t have a middle name. That’s okay! You can use just the Physical and Spiritual transits, or some numerologists use the first name twice.
🙏 Spiritual Transit
Your Soul’s Journey Through Time
The Spiritual Transit comes from your Last Name. It shows your spiritual growth and what your soul is learning.
Think of it like this: Your last name is your heart’s guidebook!
Example with “MILLER”:
| Age | Letter | Years Active | Spiritual Theme |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0-3 | M | 4 years | Building foundations |
| 4 | I | 9 years | Deep feelings |
| 5-12 | L | 3 years | Learning lessons |
| 13-15 | L | 3 years | More lessons |
| 16-21 | E | 5 years | Spiritual experiences |
| 22-30 | R | 9 years | Spiritual responsibility |
Spiritual Transit Letter Meanings:
- M Transit: Work hard spiritually, build inner strength
- I Transit: Deep emotional and spiritual feelings
- L Transit: Life lessons, sometimes through challenges
- E Transit: Experiences that open your heart
- R Transit: Responsibility to others, karma
📖 Transit Interpretations
Reading All Three Transits Together
The magic happens when you read all three transits together!
Example: Sarah Jane Miller at Age 15
Let’s say at age 15:
- Physical Transit: H (hard work, physical effort)
- Mental Transit: E (emotional, expressive)
- Spiritual Transit: L (life lessons)
Combined Reading:
“This year, Sarah will work hard physically (H), while processing strong emotions (E) and learning important life lessons (L). The combination suggests challenges that build character!”
Quick Reference: Common Transit Combinations
High Energy Years:
- A + A + A = Super independent, start everything yourself
- R + E + R = Travel, emotions, and responsibilities
Challenging Years:
- H + N + L = Hard work + Nervous mind + Life lessons
- K + K + K = Partnerships and cooperation essential
Growth Years:
- I + E + I = Deep feelings and spiritual growth
- G + G + G = Inner wisdom developing
Reading Tips 🎯
- Look at all three together — they tell one story
- Notice repetitions — same letter appearing means stronger influence
- Check the Essence — it’s the summary of your year
- Remember: Letters change — when one transit ends, energy shifts
