Solstice 2020
The winter Solstice is today. This Solstice is extra special. The Great Conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn appears at it’s closest today. So close that in some circumstances they appear as one very bright star often called the Christmas Star.
Jupiter is expansive, good luck, healing, abundance and fun. Saturn is rigid, uncompromising, restrictive, responsibility and long-term lessons.
On the Solstice we enter Aquarius, the air element, leaving Capricorn, the earth element. The Air element is associated with mind, information, communication, innovation, technology, humanitarianism, reform and independence.
Great Conjunctions usually mark a time of immense change. (Numerically 2021 adds up to 5 and 5 is about change). Jupiter and Saturn will play significant roles in the years to come…contrasting, conflicting and complimentary. Expect radical shifts, growth and renewed expectations. Interestingly, COVID-19 vaccine’s rapid development, using MRNA technology, coincides with this upcoming conjunction.
It is a time for creating solutions for the myriad challenges facing humanity. It is a time for the growth of greater personal responsibility. It is a time for finding opportunity in crisis.
Winter Solstice invites rest and reflection; a time for going within; a time to honor the past, and let go of that which no longer has positive value; a time for setting future goals and intentions. It is a time for hope.
Many Blessings!
