Annual profections are a hellenistic technique that connects each year of life to a specific house with the timelord simply being the ruler of that house
The technique is incredibly simple so anyone can use it!
This helps in looking at transits and knowing which are going to affect me the most this year
Keep in mind, this will all be rooted in the "natal promise" which is what Mars is doing natally. It'll activate in diff ways but with a similar pattern
A pretty basic but solid signification of 12H Mars ruling the 4H
Just pay attention to your profected house and timelord and it'll make sense
And it's from birthday to birthday, not based on the calendar year
