Star Study Of The Rare Jupiter-Pluto Conjunction
December, 2007 Astrology Insights
By Dikki-Jo Mullen, Astrologer and Parapsychologist
Astrologers are waiting and watching in anticipation! On Tuesday, December 11, 2007 a very rare Jupiter- Pluto conjunction will occur at 28 degrees 24 minutes of Sagittarius! Events which unfold and decisions made near that date can make quite an impact. This applies to the Planet as a whole, the stage of world affairs and to the dramas unfolding in our personal lives. Jupiter, the largest of planets has a traditional link with both Zeus and Thor. The hurling thunderbolt, signifying the power of great divine intervention gives a key from traditional mythology as to what can be expected when Jupiter, ruler of Sagittarius and co ruler of Pisces, is at work. Pluto, ruler of Scorpio and God of the mysterious world of shadows, has long been portrayed as a dragon; splendid, unfathomable … and potent and untouchable. Pluto has profound potential for both good and evil. When these two planets connect in the zodiac ….Wow!! Regenerate, improve, evolve, while vibrating to the pervasive sense of divine reality can occur. Philosophical beliefs, education, breaking old restrictions with improved methodologies in various way are what we can expect. The Sabian Symbol for the conjunction and the fixed star Sinistra, which hovers nearby, provide further clues. Both factors will highlight the Jupiter-Pluto merger. Sinistra is a small twinkle in theleft hand of the constellation of Ophicus. It relates to matters of desire, of the heart. Maintaining kindness and humor are essential. Morality issues and addictions come to the fore. Steer clear of fatal attractions, make certain drinks and foods are free of toxins. The Sabian Symbol is amusing. It‘s “A Fat Guy Mowing the Lawn” . The terrible waste of precious water on growing and cutting turf grass is suggested here. The idea of taking on a chore, participating, upkeep of property and rising to the challenge of repetitive situations can be seen in the colorful metaphor as well. Yuletide
Yule, which comes from a word meaning wheel, suggesting the eternal season of the year, repeating another cycle. The astrological aspects on Yule reveal the events of the whole winter season to come. Specifics are charted in a special astrology map called an ingress chart. This year the horoscope for the ingress at Yule has a very strong Earth sign accent. Economic concerns are at the fore. Heed the messages to be heard in the Earth’s whispered voices from the crystals, trees and herbs.
Yuletide, the Winter Solstice, is on December 22, 2007 … At 1:08 AM EST.
This is the longest night and shortest day of the entire year and marks
the beginning of winter. The Sun enters Capricorn on the winter solstice.
Since earliest times this has been a deeply spiritual time, marking the
return of the light from the point of greatest darkness. Sacred fires and
candles are especially cherished during yuletide celebrations. There is a
belief that bayberry candles burned to the end between Yuletide and
Epiphany on January 6 will assure luck and protection during the year
ahead.
“Bayberry Candles Burned to the Socket bring love, good health and gold
in the pocket”, the legend goes…. Light one to invoke the angels and
spirits of deep winter to bless and brighten your path!
The final Full Moon of 2007 is the Full Moon with the Sun in Capricorn and The Moon in Cancer, on December 23, 2007 at 8:16 PM EST. Holiday shopping will be at a peak. Many will have sentimental issues and memories to balance. Retrograde Mars is very prominent in an exact conjunction with the Full Moon! Direct energy wisely, quell haste and anger. Moderate exercise and careful consideration or words and deeds are a must. Consider antiques, hand made items and your own homemade crafts or food to give as last minute gifts. Eat and drink with wellness in mind.
Traditional names and Meditations for the Cancer Full Moon ….
Pagan
Wolf Moon
A fearsome creature, almost legendary in modern times, the wolf wanders and forages. The hunt goes on during the bleakest nights.
Native American
Moon of Cleansing Renewal
All of nature rests, guarding what has been gained. During the sleep of winter energy is replenished and cherished.
December 2007 Birth Sign Astrological Forecasts
Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
Travel and gather information From Dec 1- Dec. 20 when Mercury is impacting you favorably. You are an especially “smart cookie” impressing others with your heightened mental energy early in the month. The Sagittarius New Moon on December 9 is wonderful for focus and goal selection. Start a journal, arrange meetings, auditions and interviews just after the 9th. Since Mars is retrograde, plans may need revision. Adapt, be flexible, draw upon the well of experience and tradition as the month ends.
Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
After Dec. 18 Jupiter enters Capricorn and moves toward a trine with Saturn in Virgo. Health and security matters brighten, your past efforts are rewarded after Yuletide. You will be especially aware of time. Purchase a new clock or interesting calendar to honor the season and the times to come. Watch for a white cat to adopt near Christmas.
Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)
Venus in Scorpio trines Mars in Cancer and Uranus in Pisces most of the month. It’s all about fun, romance and frivolity now. Cultural and creative interests can delight you too. The Cancer Full Moon on December 23 is a very spiritual and sensitive time. Heed a vision or dream then. Postpone work related decisions until after New Year’s Eve. Your career path is still evolving.
Air Signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)
Elusive and mystical Neptune holds sway over you now. Coincidences and synchronicities abound, paranormal events occur on a regular basis. Remember that the winter holidays have long been associated with ghosts and spirits. Clarity and discovering truth are essential now. Ask questions and be patient until the confusion clears. Invoke the angels, if you merely ask them, they will be there to assist. Music and color will heal and balance you.
