@Jason: That’s very interesting since I almost never profect anything but the Asc and I don’t use continuous profections. If you don’t mind me asking, what kind of events were signified by each? For Fortune it would be financially related but for Spirit would it be emotional?
Hello again Gemato. No, I don't mind sharing a couple of examples that include personal details, as long as you promise not to judge me - ;) Just kidding
1.
At 14 yrs old in the summer of 1993, as the profected Lot of Spirit conjoined my radix Moon, I learned my family would be moving 1500 miles from my place of birth (where I'd lived all my life) a month later. It wasn't under happy circumstances, and the news blindsided me. That was the end of my formal schooling in the public school system as well, I'd just completed the 8th grade.
Probably important to note as well:
I was in a 3rd sign from the ASC profection year (Cancer; Moon as Lord of the year).
My radix LoS is conjunct Mercury (education) and Mars (severance) tightly: Mercury 27° LoS 26° Mars 25°
In the radix Mercury, LoS, and Mars all trine their dispositor - Jupiter. Jupiter sits on the IC of in my chart (roots, family).
My radix Moon makes the tightest aspect in my chart - an applying square to Saturn (0° 28' orb) (Gemini -> Virgo; signs ruled by Mercury).
While I know it sounds like a sad situation (and definitely felt like it was at the time - like my whole world had come apart) - in hindsight I can confidently say it was a HUGE turning point in my life that paved the way for things to come (in terms of me becoming who I am) and ultimately saved me from being trapped in a life that... well, let's just say, I see it as a blessing in disguise these days (I'm leaving out important context because it's too personal for the forum- but just trust me).

At 32 yrs old, in December of 2011 just before Christmas, as the profected Lot of Fortune conjoined my radix 12th house Sun, I was accepted to an in-patient year-long treatment program at a Salvation Army facility (the only program that would take me due to circumstances leading up to that moment). At the time I was homeless and had been a heroin addict for almost a decade. But in that program, during that year, I got clean, felt healthy for the first time in ages and, didn't exactly find god the way they wanted me to (they made us attend Christian chapel service every Sunday and do nightly bible studies), but did start to practice meditation seriously, and began to investigate Taoist and Buddhist texts. I still practice meditation daily to this day.
Also, regarding the "fortune" aspect - at the end of the program I got a decent job, and was able to afford an apartment - the first time I'd had stable employment and finances and a living situation in years.
It was a 9th sign from the ASC profection year for me (Capricorn; Saturn as Lord of the Year).
My radix PoF is in Cancer, along with Jupiter, and square my Aries Sun by sign.
3.
At 43 yrs old, in the Autumn of 2022, as the profected LoF conjoined my 11th house radix Venus, I became a published writer for the first time. The details of how I got the writing gig include an unexpected offer made to me by a respected older (than me) woman who has strong influence in a "scene". Venus is exalted in my chart and aspects both the Moon and Saturn.
My radix PoF is in my 3rd house and trine Venus by sign. PoF is disposed by the Moon.
There are other events I could detail, I've had a kind of crazy life, but I'll leave it at those. Hope that's interesting enough.
Of course, other things were happening to my chart by transit, other profected points, etc. But I think the direct conjunctions lining up perfectly with specific days is worth noting.
