These cyclical waves of creative and emancipatory cultural activity occurred either as intervening crests between the longer, less frequent Uranus-Pluto alignments or as climactic moments during or just after the period of the longer alignment., Richard Tarnas,Cosmos and Psyche, p. 294. As Neptune in Pisces dissolves old structures of thought, and we enter into the crisis of consciousness signified by the Last Quarter square between Jupiter in Virgo and Saturn in Sagittarius, we will experience a humbling process of needing to admit what we do not know and open ourselves to new understanding. As we have all collectively through ages experienced great trauma in past incarnations, this function of Saturn serves a purpose of protecting us from being overwhelmed by past memories of trauma we cannot control. Maggie's general openness and inclusiveness towards other astrologers. (1984). Very few in your hand, Lord. In this way, Oken described Mercury as linking the Higher Mind with the lower so that the inner realization of ones place in the Plan of Life may be recognized and then, through the use of applied logic, externalized into the lower realms of our personality (p. 162-3). 3. Man, however, experiences something that is not contained in our metaphor of the pine tree. Free shipping for many products! We are born into cultures and societies sprung from centuries of religious and philosophical traditions and conflicts.

When considering how all of this fits into your natal chart, look at the house position and aspects formed by both Jupiter and Uranus and then synthesize this understanding with the phasal relationship between Jupiter and Uranus in your chart. Love expresses itselfthrough the lovers, for real Love is a cosmic undifferentiated principle or power which simply focuses itself within the souls of human beings who reflect its light. There have been as many different responses as there are different people, differences in human personalities and backgrounds, with some wanting to possess material items and others more immaterial qualities. This connects with the Fourth Ray of Esoteric Astrology: as Alan Oken teaches, what is the conflict? The winglike clouds may also symbolize the presence of celestial beings (devas, angels) blessing and subtly revealing the direction to take, the direction of the wind of destiny (Rudhyar,An Astrological Mandala, p. 83). With Jupiter conjunct the North Node of Neptune, and Uranus in Aries in trine, with Mars in Sagittarius also coming in for a trine, the entire evolutionary trajectory of Neptune will be electrified in the next month. such as Uranus-Neptune) consistently burst forth in a more frequent cyclical efflorescence in coincidence with the Jupiter-Uranus alignments. Alan Okens Complete Astrology. My views about the archaic remnants, which I call archetypes or primordial images, have been constantly criticized by people who lack a sufficient knowledge of the psychology of dreams and of mythology. What do you desire? The opposition point of this cycle was on August 30, 2003 with Jupiter at zero degrees of Virgo and Uranus retrograde at zero degrees of Pisces. The t-square between Jupiter in Virgo with Saturn in Sagittarius and Neptune in Pisces will create disillusionment that fosters a vital reorientation of vision being developed within the cycle of Uranus and Jupiter. . The heart is the fourth chakra (the middle chakra, with three above and three below), just like humans are the fourth kingdom (three kingdoms below- mineral, plant, animal, and three kingdoms above- the soul, and the more angelic realms). This sets up an indefensible position; we become like a fortress: a self within a mind within a body that is threatened from all sides. The Jupiter and Uranus cycle not only leads us to rebel from consensus beliefs, however, but also brings us into contact with philosophies and visions that resonate with our Soul. To Richard Tarnas, in the interplay between Jupiter and Uranus in their cycle, we can discover Jupiters principle of expansion and growth supporting the Promethean impulse of new beginnings (p. 300). This however is true only insofar as Jupiter represents a trend of development that leads in the opposite direction from that of the Saturn process. As we sense our collective history of trauma and tyranny in world events, and from within feel how we judge and tyrannize our own personal power, we gain the awareness necessary to light the spark that will burn it all down into ash. In general, it seems to impel a movement towards encompassing greater wholes and enlarging ones world, embracing higher principles of order, higher orders of magnitude, broader horizons of experience (p. 294). Rudhyar viewed Jupiter as the soulful function of our purpose within the form of our Saturn structure. Unrelated to astrology, in the community college class I teach recently students have been creating projects and writing exploring what they want to attract into their life, what their current purpose in life is, what they desire to have in their life, and what they value. In this time of Easter, with a potent conjunction of Venus, the Sun, Uranus, and Mars all occurring in Aries (not to mention that this Aries stellium is square Capricorn Pluto and forms a yod with Jupiter in Gemini pointing toward Saturn in Scorpio), we can resurrect our true Self or Soul, our true Genius or Juno, however you want to describe it, but the soulful callings of our life purpose we can hear in the wind, which may have fallen dormant in years past, now is burning like the bush calling out to Moses, calling on us to liberate our true being from within and actualize our true Path in the World at this time. Rudhyar, Dane. This is the sudden flash of insight famous throughout history, like the story of Nikola Tesla seeing an image of a waterfall as a young boy and becoming filled with the knowing that he would one day figure out how to harness its power as electricity, as he did decades later. It merely tries to feel whether it should grow more toward the left or the right, toward the slope or away from it. Alice Bailey inEsoteric Astrology described Aries as the searchlight of the Logos and the Light of Life Itself . Green teaches that the placement and aspects of Pluto describes the types of desires the soul has had in previous lives that have a direct connection to the current evolutionary intentions of the current lifetime- in Sanskrit this archetype is called Prarabdha Karma. What do you value? Jupiter organizes the chaos within the structure of our consciousness through love and yearning, through our senses and feelings, through our intuition and imagination. It bores, through the walls of the ego, holes, telescopes, microscopes, channels through which the flashes of intuition, the inspiration of genius, may suddenly reveal themselves to the Saturn-bound consciousness., Dane Rudhyar fromUranus Master of Transformations. We do not know whether the pine tree is aware of its own growth, whether it enjoys and suffers the different vicissitudes that shape it. Oken, Alan. Through Jupiter and its archetype, the Soul gains a feeling of security through projecting beliefs upon Creation in order to compensate for lacking actual understanding. He felt a place where Buddhism, meditation, and psychotherapy can all be helpful is the concept of going on being, which he first read about through British child analyst D.W. Winnicott. This would amplify the intensity of the transiting Jupiter and Uranus cycle for you, making your Jupiter under the influence of Uranus more dramatically than if Uranus was not in aspect to your natal Jupiter. For example, you may have been born with Jupiter in Aries in the same degrees where Uranus is currently transiting. Other astrologers have talked about the Moon or the 12th house as the karmic past. Indeed, in the many folds of myth Prometheus not only created humans and gave them the gift of fire, he has also been said to be humanitys benefactor of the arts of civilization such as writing, mathematics, science, agriculture, and medicine. This is a key point to ponder and realize that the Jupiter vision of life we develop is not only conditioned by familial and cultural influences, but also by significant Soul memories and the full meaning of the Uranus archetype, including the South Node of Uranus by aspect and house position. . Saturn in Scorpio to me is like the karmic taskmaster Mahakala, seen in the image above. To be individually conscious means to emerge out of the sea of generic and collective consciousness- which to the emerged mind appears to be unconsciousness. In other cases, the Uranian action is sharp and explosive. In contrast, if you are born with Jupiter in a Balsamic Phase to Uranus, it would be more about a great clearing occurring this lifetime regarding the myriad belief systems that have played significant roles in conditioning the manner in which your Soul projects beliefs. For example, the image above is one of the most significant catalytic events in myth: Zeus desiring to possess the beautiful Europa, so transforming himself into a bull to lure her away, and carry her off to the land that became Europe. Rudhyars conception of Uranus imploding our Saturn structure is foundational to the meaning of the Jupiter and Uranus cycle in Evolutionary Astrology, as these Uranian impulses allow Jupiter to expand our sense of meaning and vision beyond the former constraints of Saturn. Aldus. InSoul-Centered Astrology, Alan Oken illuminated this connection between Taurus and the Buddha: The Buddha taught that the path of detachment from desire is the vehicle for the entrance of Light; that is, the Creative Will . Removing patriarchal religion associations, in this way Jupiter is like our High Priestess receiving, managing, and initiating within the boundaries of Saturn as our Great Mother. We do not fear death, we step into it and experience our freedom. interact with one another in society. Alan Oken has already written a brilliant summary of this dynamic, that could relate to intense events corresponding with these series of eclipses while the third Pluto-Uranus square is happening at the same time: There is a common rhythm for those crises brought on through the urgency of Fourth Ray energy. It is worth remembering that while astrologers have known about the planet Uranus for a few centuries now, in the expanse of astrologys history it has been a relatively short time of existence. It might indicate that your partner works in the health profession, particularly in places like hospitals or mental health facilities. What this consensus reality looks like is constantly shifting in modern times, with each new generation ascending with all of its myriad fractals of individuation occurring inside. During each of these, as well as during the intervening oppositions, decisive crests of remarkably synchronous breakthroughs and innovations appeared to take place within a brief period of time in many areas of human activity. During this show we will discuss how we can utilize the Mercury and Neptune conjunction in Pisces to prepare for the coming Eclipse season and the initiation of the new Equinox. Moreover, Oken cites the fact that many believe that Moses, the leader of the Exodus, was born under the sign of Aries (p.59). Our attitude must be like of the mountain pine mentioned above: It does not get annoyed when its growth is obstructed by a stone, nor does it make plans about how to overcome the obstacles. Green's life experience is practically as wide as his vision. This form of astrology is a recent development in terms of astrology's rich history. Rudhyar emphasized that Jupiter cannot be interpreted separately from its relationship with Saturn, as Jupiter receives, manages, and initiates within the boundaries of Saturn. This is a worthy idea, and one of the possible meanings found within this fiery vastness. Similar to the symbol of the cross, the six pointed star meets in the middle, in the heart. Oken explained that Mercury is the esoteric ruler of Aries because Aries is the fiery channel that provides for mercurys expression, allowing for the birthing of a true Idea coming from the Mind of God . Such a change brings on the tensions of thestruggle between the past and the unfolding future, between the urge for things to stay the same and the inevitability of transformation. Have you had a nice conference? In Cosmos and Psyche, Richard Tarnas highlights the factor of human co-creative participation in contemporary astrology, and how planetary archetypes . It also has a frequent association with the realm and aspirations of culture, especially high culture: high principle, higher learning, breadth of knowledge, liberal education, cultured erudition, a wide and encompassing vision. The current Jupiter and Uranus cycle began in 2010, when Jupiter and Uranus were conjunct at the zero degree Aries point and at the end of Pisces: Jupiter and Uranus were conjunct at 018 Aries on June 8, 2010. It is the result of some basic action: a leaving behind, an emerging from a womb or matrix, here symbolized by the sea (p. 49-50). It brings up the question of whether or not learning more about how we have been wounded can even be useful. Thus according to the man who coined the term archetypes, they are not in fact locked in to rigid definitions or classifications, but are indeed open to being birthed into new representations like the Esoteric Astrology interpretation of Aries, as long as they retain their basic pattern. As a result, the creative tension that is always part of the First Quarter phase would have been amplified, with old patterns of thought enticing us to remain in the status quo while simultaneously our developing vision would have sparked desire to establish new forms through which to enter into a liberated unknown. The long Mercury retrograde in Pisces combined with Neptune, Chiron, Mars, Venus, the Moon, and the Sun all moving through Pisces may have coincided with us discovering at least a hint, if not a definitive calling, from our Soul purpose in the world, the latent potential of a glorious mountain pine tree that could grow from the seeds of our current thoughts and desires. Thus a two-fold operation: the piercing through then the projection of images. Tied into this symbol is a seeker who has transformed into a warrior, refusing to depend upon the past, and fighting anew the eternal Great War (p. 81). It bores, through the walls of the ego, holes, telescopes, microscopes, channels through which the flashes of intuition, the inspiration of genius, may suddenly reveal themselves to the Saturn-bound consciousness. Many more in the grove, they replied with unsparing simplicity and none of my taste for duplicity. In Evolutionary Astrology and other teachings, Uranus carries an energy of collective trauma that can be seen in the myth by Uranus being castrated by Saturn, while also carrying an unstoppable energy of individuation as a result of overcoming the societal conditioning of Saturn, as seen in this castration giving birth to the radiant Goddess Venus. Rudhyar gives this analysis of the first degree of Aries: This is the first of the 360 phases of a universal and multi-level cyclic process which aims at the actualization of a particular set of potentialities. The desire of Taurus to possess and hold onto objects or values is where we can apply the expression of being stubborn like a bull, and the angry emotions that can erupt out of the normally calm Taurus when a desired object or value is lost is when Taurus can be described as being like a bull in a china shop. The strong sensual desire of Taurus can be applied to anything in our life, such as the taste of food or the more nurturing touch of a friend or family member. The ego and the soul This reveals the potency of the inward way, the surrender of the ego to a transcendent Force which can create throughthe person vivid manifestations of the Will of God. Amazingly, the Sabian Symbol for the current South Node of the Moon in Taurus at 17 degrees is connected with the story of Gautama Siddhartha in his process of becoming the Buddha. Jupiter in Leo and Uranus in Aries will again trine March 3, 2015 at 1435. Yet this is the necessary urge for creation and change underlying our reality, and the change brought by Jupiter and Uranus take us beyond our previous restricted worldview into a new reality giving us goosebumps with the surge of electricity available from the new surroundings. The recent Mercury and Mars cycle is connected with the intense Pisces energy we experienced in February (which then became the intense Aries energy of April, the intense Taurus energy of May- more so than normal just so you know!). A small sphere may expand into a large sphere; yet it remains always a sphere. It can only modify its outer appearance and the quality and balance of the organic forces which operate within that structure. Todays eclipse correlating with greater awareness of spiritual forces is further shown through the Sabian Symbol of the Solar Eclipse at 20 degrees Taurus: Wisps of winglike clouds streaming across the sky, described by Dane Rudhyar as a sign that an individual who has taken a new step in his evolution should look for the Signature of divine Powers confirming his progress . . It is primarily our Saturn, our structure of consciousness, that to Green filters out these soul memories covering immense periods of time, so as not to overwhelm us. Similar to the concept of individuation developed by Carl Jung, it becomes vital for the Soul to decondition from repressive consensus beliefs and affirm the ability to live life authentically. These cyclical waves of creative and emancipatory cultural activity occurred either as intervening crests between the longer, less frequent Uranus-Pluto alignments or as climactic moments during or just after the period of the longer alignment., Liberated Vision: The Cycle of Jupiter and Uranus in EvolutionaryAstrology, Guiding Stars Radio: Dark Moon before a Solar EclipseEquinox, https://esotericembers.wordpress.com/2013/02/27/an-angel-watches-over-an-argument-between-ceres-and-mercury/, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._H._Almaas, Saturn in Pisces WSAA Lecture on 9February.

The astrology of the moment suggests we can be gaining a lot of information into the root causes of our current wounds this lifetime, no matter your beliefs concerning past lives, with the potential to notice how our perception of reality and our attachment to forms could be causing our suffering. Jupiter in Libra and Uranus in Aries will come in and out of the Full phase during 2017, finally entering the Full phase for good in September 2017. As we open our hearts and Higher Minds, we externalize those aspects of ourself which correspond to the Christ and the Buddha. The work to free ourselves from possessiveness and materiality so that through these lessons true Wisdom may emerge is very definitely at the center of the Taurean phase of the turning of the wheel. But this creatively active aspect of the psychic nucleus can come into play only when the ego gets rid of all purposive and wishful aims and tries to get to a deeper, more basic form of existence.
