Would you consider progressed declinations that form an exact parallel to function in the same way as a Solar Arc, as in an event occurring? Or would it translate to a state of mind at a climax?
What is your take on Saturn and Pluto progressing into exact declination, specifically?

I don't look at them like Solar Arcs for triggering events (that doesn't mean it won't work) but if you have two planets in aspect, and they are also in parallel,
it makes the contact stronger (this applies to progressions as well). This is the reason I feel that conjunctions are so powerful, because they are conjunct in longitude
and latitude. And even if two planets are not aspect to each other, you shouldn't overlook them because they're quite intense and can modify things considerably. For example, if you have Mars square Saturn in your chart, and no aspect between Mars and the Sun, but Mars is parallel the Sun, I would say your Mars isn't quite as "bad" because of the parallel to the Sun. But conversely, if Mars is square Saturn
and they are in aspect by declination, then you have a very, very, powerful aspect, either by transit or progression.
I interpret declinations like a conjunction if they're parallel, and like an opposition if they're contra-parallel.
If you want to read up on it more, I suggest you read the book,
The Best of Charles Jayne (although I don't know if it's still in print).
