We need more information! Where under the vehicle do these spots appear? Meaning what is directly above the drip? Radiator lines? Power steering? Transmission? etc. etc.! If you look above the drips you will see where the leak is! Good Luck

Looks like your seal has gone out, take it to a tranny shop and get it resealed, good time to get a flush.

Better get that fixed as soon as you can to prevent further transmission damage...
