At work, do your best to be very realistic and grounded. Possibly this transit could signal job loss, but if your employment is realistically pretty secure, you may be asked to take on more responsibility. If you work with any senior supervisors or co-workers, this is a good time to see them as mentors, even the ones that may be teaching you what not to follow!
Transiting Pluto is now sextiling your natal Pluto. This should be a good time to make any deep changes in your life, that have an old-into-new quality.
p. s. Alrescha, when I opened your charts, 2 of them had "girly" pictures below the charts as "promoted content". I don't know if you intended this, but you might be better off just saving the Astrodienst charts to your computer's "pictures" and then posting them here as your own thumbnails.
Alrescha, as astrologer Steven Forrest put it, no planet is in the solar system just to hurt us Usually if we experience the negative side of a planet, it is because we haven't fully "owned" the qualities which that planet symbolizes in our lives.
Uranus is fundamentally about rapid change. If you could control it, it wouldn't be Uranus. Its time perspective is the future. A disowned Uranus can seem like unwanted disruption, when the status quo looked fine. An embraced Uranus leads to liberation. Rather than fearing Uranus or trying to suppress it, look at where and how you might include more freedom in your home life (4th house) and workplace (MC). Then take active steps to implement these positive changes.
The universe notices when you voluntarily align yourself with it, and take steps, however small, in keeping with positive interpretations of your transits. If you simply fear transits and take no mitigating steps, then you will tend to create the circumstances you fear.
Possibly Saturn is asking you to learn from your supervisors. As you work your way up the career ladder, perhaps you will be better off for mastering both their way and your way of doing things.
If solar and lunar returns show up in your life primarily as something to fear, I would suggest you rethink astrology. It makes a good servant but a poor master. You are all of the planets in your horoscope. The more you can own each of them, the better you will find your transits working for you.
Jupiter can be the Santa Claus of the zodiac, but like anything else, it works best when you make a conscious effort to develop its faith and optimism within your life. With your natal Jupiter opposite your Scorpio sun and square your moon, you may not see faith and optimism (of the versatile and light-hearted Gemini variety) as in-character for you. With SR Jupiter in your first house sextiling your natal Mercury-sun conjunction, maybe your best project this year would be to develop more faith and optimism (Jupiter) about yourself (sun.)
I learned the hard way that happiness is a choice. It doesn't depend upon external circumstances giving us what we want, but on the inner capacity to find happiness in the real circumstances around us.
With all good wishes for the year ahead, W.
Alrescha, Jupiter is your out-of-sect benefic (not as strong), as well as being detrimented and retrograde in your natal chart, and it's also detrimented in Virgo. It's always going to try to bring good because that is the nature of Jupiter, but it's so afflicted that it may not succeed very often. It won't actively harm, but it's not where your boosts are going to come from, not without a lot of help.
It isn't all misery. You were born at night, making Venus your in-sect benefic, the one that's stronger for you - and it's in rulership, and the one that's likely to bring more good for you.
I've seldom seen a mere transit trip off big things (sometimes, but not often), but look to Venus more than Jupiter for good things. Just from a quick look at your chart, it seems that Venus things and types of activities will bring you more good and happiness than Jupiter ones will.
And you don't think that maybe, just POSSIBLY, with a Virgo ascendant that's got Mercury, its ruler, sextiling it from the third house, and Gemini, also ruled by Mercury on your MC would have anything to do with teaching?
It certainly seems like it would to me, but what do I know?
Not meaning to make light of your troubles, but if it's what you want to do it certainly seems possible. I knew a lady with a similar configuration (though her Jupiter was off in 12) who ended up teaching developmentally disabled adults (that could be the detrimented Jupiter) and was very happy with her career.
That's not the only way it can play out, but Jupiter is not the only planet that's involved in teaching, and if it's what you want to do, it certainly seems quite possible from your chart.
Saturn's in pretty good shape in your chart - it's not retrograde. It seems strange, but with Saturn, if it's retrograde it goes easier peregrine, you do not want it retrograde and in its dignities. A few folks have written about that, I've seen it play out in charts (sadly, including my own).
So if you're working with Saturn, yes, you can work with OLD stuff - maybe teaching methods. Mercury does well in Capricorn, it's got the same cold and dry make up, and it does well with Saturn.
It'll help with your astrology studies, if you decide to focus some on that. The two planets together tend to make for some fairly profound thinking.
Who knows, you might have success in finding a way not to throw humans into the bin in this whole teaching other humans endeavour
Alrescha, if it's any consolation, my Jupiter in Capricorn is in its fall in the 4th house (Placidus), and picks up none of the traditional essential dignities so far as I can determine.
However, I really like things related to Jupiter in Capricorn in the 4th house: researching my family history, living with antiques and used books. I have a hobby of learning traditional recipes and cooking methods. We're not doing this now, but in the past my husband and I also restored (or partly restored) old houses on the National Register of Historical Places. In whole signs, with Sagittarius on the IC, I still get Jupiter ruling the 4th, which loops back to its fall in Capricorn.
Jupiter hasn't shown up as the great good luck factor in my life, but it has been a source of satisfaction.
I would suggest, similarly, that Jupiter could be a good planet to develop. 9th house overseas travel, higher education, religions, or developing a life philosophy could easily match up with Gemini's love of information gathering. If you develop one or more of these potentials, hopefully your pessimism will start to dissipate.
Natal Jupiter gets a strong boost from a sextile with your domiciled Mars.
In fact you have 4 domiciled planets in your chart: Venus, Mars, Pluto, and Saturn. This gives you a lot of strength! (And I don't have any....sigh. )
Language is one of the things Saturn will NEVER grasp, learning those doesn't work the way he thinks it does and it NEVER will, NEVER, but, it is coming for the people with it's improved methods to enforce. The mind is isn't compatible with its cram-the-information methods because it is not a machine and it won't be before they introduce cyborgs! Just because Saturnians learn that way, that doesn't mean their methods are superior and that they should be enforced upon us all. They shouldn't have allowed Saturn to meddle with the languages and education in general, but it's to late, God have mercy on us all.
I guess I need to forget everything I know about language then.
You may be misunderstanding Saturn here. It is melancholic, but it is also the planet most aligned with profound thought and profound thinkers. Not the folks who want to robotise the world for the sake of efficiency.
Alchemists used to study astrology, alchemy, and magic for the realisation of God. One of the reasons for the study of astrology was to see if it would be a waste of your time, if you'd never get there. Saturn was generally the arbiter, because that's what you needed. It doesn't 'cram information'. But it does take some patience, because sometimes you'll realise that everything you know - you don't. And much as I do see Saturn as a malefic, I will give it that. If it's in decent shape and placement, it's going to help your thinking processes, even if it does play a very long game.
Yes, there's misery along the way, and Saturn (depending on how it's aspected) will get you there more slowly, but it will get you there. Saturn demarcates the material world. So does language, in a lot of ways.
You don't have a bad Saturn, Alrescha, but it's probably caused deep hurt where it touches your natal chart - because that is it's nature, too. But in your case, and with Saturn and Mercury sharing rooms for you this year - learn to come to terms with it, including the good side of it, the side that can let you become a practical philosopher. That kind of learning will last you a lifetime.
