Saturn square Saturn: Soul-searching
End of November 2012 until beginning of September 2013: This is a critical period in which
several aspects of your life and experience will be tested, especially those that began to be
important about seven years ago. Most often this influence is experienced as a sort of
identity crisis in which you begin to question what you are doing. You may suffer a crisis of
confidence at this time, fearing that you have made the wrong moves in life or committed
yourself to some course of action that will not be good in the long run. During this period
you will think about and question all the long-term trends in your life. You will not be
thinking about trivial matters.
Sometimes a particular event triggers off this period of soul-searching. Others may create
difficulties for you, especially in your public and social life. Perhaps they detect the
first signs of insecurity that will afflict you during this period. If they are people who
naturally compete with you, they may try to take advantage of your apparent weakness. People
in authority may also sense your feelings of insecurity.
You must recognize that some aspects of your life need to be questioned at this time. But
don't stand in one spot quivering about your life. Examine it and make whatever changes are
possible and seem appropriate. Any project you started seven years ago or any new aspect of
yourself that first surfaced then that is truly worth continuing will still be worthwhile
after this period. This is a time of testing, and anything that withstands the test will be
better for it. Things that do not pass the test are well got rid of. Shortly you will enter
a period of stability and fruitfulness that will justify the events that take place now. In
fact, if you are truly conscious of your life and your objectives, you will not undergo a real
crisis at all. You will only go through a period of examining what is working and what is
not. Your difficulties with the outer world at this time are signals about what you should be
doing.
Uranus opposition Neptune: Higher dimensions
End of April 2013 until end of March 2014: How you will react to this influence will depend
upon how well you have learned certain of life's lessons. If you are extremely materialistic
and so caught up in the mundane concerns of daily life that you cannot see or conceive of
anything higher - whether it be a religion, a system of ideals or whatever - you will
experience this time as extremely confusing. Events will occur that simply do not fit into
your scheme, and you will become confused and perhaps act in ways that you consider very
unwise. You may suddenly start chasing after wild and impractical dreams, become involved
with persons who are very out of touch with reality and generally get your goals thoroughly
scrambled.
All of this arises because this influence exposes you to higher dimensions of existence, to a
world that doesn't work like the one you have been taught to see. Nevertheless this higher
world is real and important, in that it gives life meaning even though seemingly far removed
from it. If you have always frowned on idealistic notions of higher metaphysical dimensions,
this influence will confuse and upset you, because it reveals these dimensions to you. But if
you have learned that the universe does not stop with what you can see and feel with your
senses, this influence will allow you to experience profound revelations and understanding.
Your degree of enlightenment or confusion depends entirely upon how well prepared you are.
Jupiter opposition Mercury: Mind the details
From 28 July 2013 until 7 August 2013: This is a time of very big plans and the culmination of
many ideas that you have had in the past. It is possible now to make your ideas become
reality, as long as you avoid certain pitfalls. In this case the primary problem is to avoid
thinking too big or attempting something that is totally grandiose and impractical.
If you can keep track of all of the details that go into a well-thought-out business deal,
this is an excellent time to sign contracts or to conclude any kind of commercial transaction,
but it is very important not to overlook any details that might affect the outcome. This
influence enables you to see the overall patterns in anything and to plan with foresight and
wisdom. But if you are not careful, it can also lead to sloppy thinking or planning. It is
best to work with someone else who can check over your work or plans and call your attention
to anything that you have overlooked.
Projects or plans that began up to six years ago may come to fruition now, but only if you
have been careful about details as described above. At any rate, events now will make it
clear whether these ideas were based on reality or on pipe dreams. Work out everything in
detail and leave as little as possible to chance; this will help you immensely.
Although recognizing the truth of any matter is important to you now, you must deal with
others tactfully. There is a danger of alienating people by being self-righteous or arrogant
in telling them about your ideas. It is extremely important that the breadth of vision
conferred by this influence be accompanied by tolerance and generosity. Usually it is, but
sometimes people react in the negative way just described.
The pace of events may become rather fast moving for you at this time, and that is another
reason why you must plan everything very thoroughly. You could get confused, not because the
situation is undefined or vague but because the scale of events is too large for you to grasp.
But this shouldn't happen if you have worked everything out in advance.
Jupiter square Neptune: False optimism
Beginning of August 2013 until beginning of April 2014: At this time you will work very hard
to actualize your ideals and find a concrete way to put your spiritual views into practice in
the real world. But you can expect the real world to put up some resistance to your ideas.
Among other things, you will be challenged to demonstrate that your ideals are not just
irrelevant, impractical abstractions. You will also have to demonstrate that your views are
based on realism rather than some dream world, which is where you may very well be now. At
any rate, this time will give you the opportunity to find out.
You will give readily when called upon now, because this influence signifies a great
generosity to people who are less fortunate than yourself. But you may not be very discreet
in choosing the people on whom you lavish your charity. Some people can be helped, and it
would be worthwhile to spend your time on them. But others are not worth wasting time on,
although with this influence you may not be able to tell the difference.
On another level, this influence can signify the kind of false optimism that makes you take
foolish risks, especially with limited resources. In any financial dealings be very careful
that everything is exactly as represented to you by others. Otherwise you could be taken for
a ride.
This time is a test of your grasp of reality and your ability to translate ideals into
practice. There is no reason to assume that you will not pass the test, but you do have to be
careful.
Religious or spiritual delusions are another danger of this influence. You may be tempted to
run after false messiahs or teachers whose ability to dazzle with spiritual phrases exceeds
their ability to teach you how to cope with your life.
Jupiter opposition Mars: In a big way
Mid-September 2013 until mid-May 2014: This is an extremely exuberant influence, which
inclines you to do everything in a big way. Your energy level is high, and you are ambitious
in everything that you do. You have a great need to expend physical energy, but be careful
not to act recklessly. Discipline and restraint are necessary, no matter what you do.
Do not overestimate your abilities, either to yourself or to others. You are capable of doing
quite a bit under this influence, so you don't have to exaggerate. It is especially important
not to kid yourself about your abilities, however, because you will genuinely try to do the
impossible and quite possibly exhaust yourself in the process. For the same reason, don't
take unnecessary chances. The feeling of omnipotence that this influence confers is not real,
at least not to the extent that you feel it.
Sometimes this influence can signify a conflict with another in which you try to break away
from the other's restrictions. It is difficult to say in general whether your estimate of the
facts is accurate, that is, whether the other person is really demanding too much or
restricting you too much. Therefore you must examine the issue very carefully before you act.
You have a great need to be self-assertive at this time, but be sure to reserve it for a
situation in which it can be constructive. Avoid acting upon impulse. It could get you into
needless trouble.
On the other hand, this influence also confers real courage. The difference between courage
and foolhardiness is simple self-knowledge, which you must have in order to make this
influence work out positively. If you are cool and collected in what you do, this can be a
time of considerable triumph as you overcome obstacles and accomplish deeds that you usually
would feel incapable of. If you have to stand up for yourself, you can, and in a way that
makes further dealings with your opponents constructive rather than destructive. But this
will happen only if you keep your head.
Jupiter opposition Sun: A turning point
Mid-September 2013 until end of May 2014: This can be and usually is a very positive time.
But you can make more or less out of it, depending upon how you handle it. In most ways it
represents a period of culmination in your life, and you will be tempted to expand beyond any
reasonable limit. There is no question that you have a good chance for success in any one of
a number of endeavors at this time and, within reason, you should pursue them. However, you
should not restrict yourself solely to material and physical growth now. Even if you don't
have all the material goods that you want, you should turn your attention to spiritual and
inner needs. Ultimately, nothing satisfies like satisfaction. Objects that you acquire,
possessions, money, and even social prestige are merely devices to make you feel that you have
satisfaction. They are not the state of satisfaction itself. It is your inner difficulties
that make your life less than it could be, even if you have corresponding problems in the
material world. You must look for the solutions within yourself, and this time represents a
turning point, where you should begin to look for the answers.
Under this influence, the tendency is to go after everything that you want in the material
world without caring especially about whoever is in your way, to gather as much stuff as you
can and indulge yourself in what you want. Then, as the influence subsides, you may feel that
this effort has failed, leaving your life as empty as it was before.
Do not be arrogant toward others or assume that you have everything right. Through meaningful
encounters with others, especially intimate one-to-one encounters, you can find out which way
you should go at this time. Work with another person and think in terms of mutual growth. By
trying to achieve goals set by both of you and by trying to be a twosome, you each will become
more conscious of what you are as an individual. If you can recognize the real meaning of
this influence in terms of your own life, this can be an extremely productive and growth-
oriented time, a period that will always have meaning for you.
