What this means for you

A transit is only half the picture. The same Sun movement lands differently for each person, because what matters is which house it occupies counted from your own Moon sign or ascendant. In the tool you can pick your Moon sign, or enter your birth details, and the same dates are recast as houses in your chart, with classical patterns such as Sade Sati marked automatically.
