It’s like having an elephant in the room, only in the sky. And no, this is not to suggest a new constellation recently imagined. It’s about a hard core transit, that some avoid with their dangest best efforts. Good luck with that.
Saturn recently migrated to Aries, and on 10 June, Jupiter declares Cancer home turf for a run of about a year. Then, on 14 June Jupiter in Cancer squares Saturn in Aries - the final square of this transiting triptych.
As we rapidly approach the final Jupiter square Saturn of the current cycle, this time the vibe is cardinal instead of mutable as it was with Jupiter in Gemini and Saturn in Pisces. Ones approach must shift accordingly to produce positive responses. In reality, the approach recognizes and integrates lessons learned and personal needs transformed since the last time this quadrature appeared - Christmas Eve 2024.
Consider Saturn in Aries first - after all that’s what the structure monger insists upon while transiting the first sign distinctively noted to stake a claim for itself. Saturn affirms that no matter how nice a person you happen to be and how evolved your consciousness is, while engaging with others that need what you can do, the ultimate “deal” must be something that more than meets your minimum needs. There is a rumor - actually a verified rumor - that during Saturn transits one should define their basic needs, multiply those needs by three and add at least twelve. Why does this rumor persist and why is it spreading on social media?
During a passage from Saturn to ones natal chart, one is likely to diminish their worth in their mind. Questions like: Who wants what I have to offer? Really, is this a real thing I’m doing and does it have value? How do I pitch this with confidence? How much money do I have to spend to get my look book, pitch deck or whatever “standard package for presentations” I need to submit?
Ultimately, Saturn in Aries demands that one be resilient and flexible, but not to the point of disadvantaging the self in any way. Get your needs met and then some. With that get onto to the flourishing.
Jupiter in Cancer absolutely is compatible with Saturn in Aries concepts despite the square. While transiting the fourth sign, he arouses nesting urges. Suddenly, the need for cutlery, towels, and things that make a home a home become irrationally important. At the end of a day of relentless self-affirming pursuits that fill ones wildest perceptions of destiny, one benefits from seeking a secure nest in which one can recover, reset and reconfigure.
Given Jupiter’s thing with abundance and his alleged presentation of unlimited opportunities, there is a potential financial component to this pattern. There’s no telling where and how and through what unexpected source funding may appear. Openness to all viable options works best. Viable can be construed to note only options that support ones morality, sense of ethics and personal worldly footprint. For instance, if one is concerned about water - Cancer being a water sign - perhaps the issuing of crypto currency - which takes heaps of water to support - is not the way to go. Maybe coming up with ideas for water storage and cleanliness provides the constructive applications that a cash cow likely endorses.
With Jupiter in Cancer cash cows and sustaining fiscal deals can and do come about. Saturn though, reminds a person that showing a one page summary of a novel concept is not the same as having a completed manuscript. Saturn will ask at all opportunistic crossroads: Do you possess the skill, capability, time and energy to assert yourself with wild abandon into this opportunity? Have you done the work? Do you have experience, and more important, the gumption to follow galactic insights coming from above that enhance the quality and applicability of this opportunity?
Here’s an important part of this square, heavy on import to Saturn in Aries. Think of what is required in terms of your time. Can you endure? This goes to: Do you possess the energy, commitment and enduring agreement with all principles and causes in play. In reality, how long a task takes depends upon the emotional intensity of applied effort for the duration, without question or reservation.
This is a totally opportunistic aspect. If you possess natal planets in early cardinal signs, you are hardwired to engage and apply relentless energy. Should you not have anything in aspect to this pattern, it operates somewhere in your horoscope. Find those places (houses), meditate upon them, and derive whatever insights you can when chilling in your sacred personal space. Then, cultivate all those things that came to mind, and get ready to disclose them to the world when Jupiter is three to five degrees from making the next major aspect to your nativity that it forms by transit.
There is no need to be concerned about FOMO. It’s more a matter of rallying your resources out of hiding and any retrograde perception, bringing them into the limelight!
With Saturn in Aries, work to affirm to your psyche that anything you know you can do exists within your nature and with a completely undeniable standing. Affirm the undeniably best of you! As Jupiter presents opportunities, feel if this is right for you, then step forward with confidence and declare what you have to offer. Then, Saturn will set up a meeting to discuss the deal and terms. Know your worth, what you need to feel good about doing this project each and every day, and state your needs clearly. After you define the deal, Jupiter requires that you once again don your thinking cap - you know, that funnel atop your crown chakra that harmoniously responds to heavenly energy downloads.
A word of caution. Jupiterian opportunities are not likely to last more than a week. There is no leisurely time to review and contemplate all the considerations. Be cardinal. When you’ve ticked off all check list boxes, it’s time to engage.
More soon.
