Your people need you more than ever

The year 2020 was packed full of collective events that will become permanent backdrops to our tapestry of history. We opened the year with potent Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn and ushered in a new deadly virus that began infecting the citizens of Wuhan.

By the time Jupiter conjoined Pluto in April, a global pandemic was unleashed. We experienced isolation, restriction, and overwhelmed feelings caused by circumstances beyond our control as country after country began to enforce quarantines to stop the spread of the SARS-COVID-2. All of which are attributes associated with Saturn-Pluto aspects. Just as we were feeling that it’s safe to go back to work another huge wave occurred in October going into November as Jupiter conjoined Pluto in Capricorn for the last time.

We’ve juggled a global pandemic, extreme fires in California, an unprecedented hurricane season, murderous bees, and a contentious presidential election, and the cosmos sees fit to unleash more. We will close the year with another aspect that occurs once every 20 years when Jupiter conjoins Saturn in Aquarius on December 21st. Let’s unpack this together.

Aquarius is a sign that is associated with groups and collective consciousness. Its symbol is the water bearer, and it is through the flow of information, ideals, and networking that our values as a society are formed. However, unlike Saturn ruled Capricorn, Aquarius is not concerned with laws and rigid structures, it is concerned with progress and evolution. Aquarius is the sign where the gifts of invention, scientific breakthroughs, and social reforms are born.

Now, on to Jupiter conjunct Saturn. In ancient astrology, the conjunct of Jupiter and Saturn was considered an ominous warning. They believed that the conjunction reflected the death of one thing and the rise of something else which would bring great difficulties, and a period of disruption and chaos. It can be a leader, an idea, a philosophy, or even generational attitudes.

It’s easy to see many of these themes at work now because Jupiter conjunct Saturn doesn’t just occur on December 21st, it builds up over time. You can turn on the evening news and see the themes of old ways of being giving way to something new, and even though we usually see them once the ‘battle’ has begun, the germinated seeds were planted long ago. During this twenty-year cycle, we will see tremendous scientific discovery and intention. We could also see changes in social media and corporate responsibility for the dissemination of information. Additionally, hot topic issues such as the environment, health care, and systemic racism will be analyzed, discussed, and hopefully resolved.

So, although Jupiter conjunct Saturn can be difficult, it also provides the vehicle through which growth and change can occur. Just keep in mind, status quo structures take time to change, and often during the initial process, setbacks will likely occur, but eventually the old gives in to the new and the cycle begins once again.

December 7, 2020 – December 13, 2020. The beginning of the second week of December starts off with the Moon moving through dutiful Virgo. This is a great time for finishing tasks, working on hobbies, or beginning to focus on exercise and health. Activities that you begin while the Moon is in Virgo have a high chance of success because the Moon makes a beneficial trine to Saturn in Capricorn. During the middle of the week, you may feel your energy dwindling and may need a boost to perform activities as the Sun squares Neptune. Focusing on personal needs and taking care of your soul may be a more productive use of this energy. This weekend there is a lovely trine between the Sun and Mars which should help bring your energy levels back up, but be careful when making decisions on Sunday with Mercury squaring confusing Neptune.
