The Jupiter/Uranus Conjunction & Relationships on April 20/21!
Although the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction occurs every 14 years, there hasn’t been one in Taurus, since 1941. So, for many of us, this will be our first and last experience of this conjunction in this Venus ruled sign!
Although the last conjunction of these planets was only in 2010/2011, it felt quite different, as it was in Aries/Pisces. As the last cycle of these two planets draws to a close on Sat./Sun, (depending on your time zone), let’s look at how this new cycle might best help us with our relationships!
Jupiter/Uranus in Taurus - Core Themes
May 2018 brought us our first taster of Uranus dipping into Taurus, inviting us to question and make any needed changes to outdated personal and collective values, that limit our personal and collective growth. The role that financial, relationship, housing, health, educational structures, and more, play in our perceived sense of security, also came to the fore, as we became increasingly aware of the price our planet is paying to maintain old values. The nature of Jupiter is to expand whatever it aspects, as well as offering new possibilities and potentials, based on new perspectives and new meaning, so all of these themes are likely to be somewhat inflated over the next few days.
Other additional factors!
Nothing occurs in a vacuum in the skies, and this conjunction takes place within the waxing Sun/Pluto square - exact a few hours later! This is followed by the Scorpio Full Moon on the 23rd, both adding a layer of emotional intensity that may be hard to separate from the conjunction energies! Are you feeling this?
In Relationships – partners, family, friends, work colleagues, community…
A key question that is likely to arise in relationships at this time is:
Is my inner sense of security and self-value mainly based on my
relationships with others, or on my relationship with my inner self?
Restrictions that impede personal growth and development are likely to be highlighted, as well as connections that foster and support our expansion. Notice who you have spent time with over the past few weeks and people you meet over the coming days and weeks. What are they lighting up for you? What potentials are opening up as a result, in your own life and in your relationships?
With Venus, the ruler of Taurus, conjunct Chiron in Aries, there is a lot of potential at this time to heal old wounds related to our perceived disempowerment, particularly if we can be ruthlessly honest with ourselves and put our ego aside.
The Sun/Pluto square suggests some potential inner conflict between our desire to maintain the familiar, comfortable, status quo, versus engaging with transformative changes, that take us outside our comfort zone. Meanwhile, the upcoming Scorpio Full Moon invites us to allow deeper emotions to surface and be released, creating more space for our passions and desires to surface.
Some ways to navigate the conjunction in Relationships
1. Spending some time alone tuning into what the transits are triggering for you right now. This helps to avoid projecting insecurities onto loved ones.
2. Considering what love means to you as a verb, rather than solely as a noun!!
3. Time to use your self-soothing and self-nurturing tools, particularly if the conjunction lands on your Sun, Moon, personal planets or angles. (Focus on your Moon by Sign and House to connect with what may be helpful for you at this time).
4. Expressing yourself through any form of creativity!
5. Notice any new awareness, or meaning, or potentials, that are opening up for you in your relationships.
6. Keep in mind that Mercury is still retrograde, so best to communicate face to face as much as possible, to avoid misunderstandings that can easily be exacerbated by the expansive Jupiterian energies!
Finally, a quick reminder that one of the most wonderful expressions of Jupiterian energy, is Joy!! Finding even small moments to feel and express Joy within and with others, is a great use of this powerful and potentially liberating conjunction! MG
