The new year with Venus conjunct Pholus

This blog is about the chart of New Year 2013. It is a different chart in every other country, of course, but some things remain the same amid the firework. Venus conjunct Pholus in 20-21 Sagittarius is one of those things. If you have the Sun, Moon, Ascendant, MC or sun/moon midpoint in your natal, solar return or progressed chart and in the 20th - 21st degree of Sagittarius, Virgo, Gemini or Pisces you start 2013 with Venus and Polus in aspect with your chart. What does it mean? A desire to make a change, but: with the risk to throw your own glasses or shoot your own foot. It may look pretty difficult to make choices and start changes with Venus-Pholus, but somehow, on or around New Year's day the desire starts growing. It is a desire to make things better, nicer, more comfortable, more peaceful and more beautiful. And this desire is in the chart of New Year's day for everyone,  if you like to see the chart of New Year as valid for your 2013.  At least, that is what I hope that it means. It might be the first time that Venus is conjunct Pholus in the chart of a new year, so let us all watch what happens next!

This is the chart of 2013 starting in Tokyo, Japan:

1 WE have PHOLUS
Pholus is the symbol of the turning point, the creation of a change in future that you may not be aware of during the transit or progression, but that you recall later. Example: the impact of the death of JFK on young Obama was reflected by Pholus. It is like a marking point. Maybe Obama would still have had the ambition to be a President anyway, but he remembered that specific moment as an important key point, later.

2 WE have VENUS
Venus is the planet of wishes, of fun, pleasure, desire, synpathy, love, style, and sweetness. 

3 WE have VENUS conjunct PHOLUS
Venus and Pholus join forces to start changing your ideas of what is nice, fun, good and lovely. 
Those who will be born around New Year's day may have the power to change people's style and taste, just by being who they are: catalyst when it comes to what is considered to be good and nice.

20-21 MUTABLE SIGNS
Venus is in the 20th degree and Pholus in the 21st of Sagittarius on New Year's day. If these degrees mean something to you, and IF you consider the January 1 chart valid for 2013, you may be interested in the possible meaning. When Venus is on your Sun or MC or Ascendant, something nice comes your way. When Pholus is on your Sun, MC, or Ascendant, your world starts changing but you don't notice immediately. If they come together, hand in hand, it might be something pleasant that starts the change.

Maybe the 20-21 degree Pisces, Virgo, Sagittarius or Gemini will meet someone who starts changing their world, with kindness. Perhaps they watch a movie or get a present that changes their views (Sun), ideas (Mercury), position (MC), motivation (Sun/Moon) or situation (AC). I don't know. I am one of them with Sun and Midheaven hit by Venus and Pholus.  Venus will be on my Sun and MC on New Years day. I expect it to be a nice day:). I will be back later next year to tell you if the January 1 chart with Venus-Pholus hitting my chart meant something for me. I am also interested in your experiences, so I will remind you of this post in the months to come and ask you to tell me what you found to be the meaning of Venus-Pholus on New Year's day. 

2013
Fact is, that at 00h00 local time on January 1, 2013, Venus and Pholus are opposition Midheaven in Iceland. I wish the Icelanders a prosperous start of the new year and I hope that something started to make life better over there! Or will it be nice fire work only?:)
We will see...

HAVE  A WONDERFUL START OF 2013! 

AND HAVE A GOOD, HEALTHY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.

Venus quindecile Ceres on Xmas

Venus, Bacchus, Ceres en Amor (Cornelis Cornelisz)

The chart of Xmas night (I mean December 25, zero hours) has an aspect that is very much in line with what will be happening on Xmas day: Venus is quindecile Ceres. Remember my tweets about Ceres and cooking and nutrition? Ceres with Venus is also the symbol of motherly love and the love to nurture. It is such a proper aspect for those Xmas days of luxury food! I'll tell you why.

1. Venus is the symbol of preferences, style, sweetness, beauty, entertainment, love and pleasure.
2  Ceres is important in the natal charts of famous chef cooks. Julia Child, for example, started making recipes when her progressed Sun was opposition Ceres!
3. Venus and Ceres both like comfort and to comfort...

So...I hope that your Xmas dinner will be prepared by someone who loves (Venus) to nurture (Ceres) and that you will love (Venus) the cook (Ceres) with the strong and fanatic focus (165 degree aspect) required by the quindecile, even if you can hardly chew the turkey.

OK There is a risk. Because of the quindecile there is a risk that you might focus too strongly on YOUR preferences (also a Venus thing) when it comes to consume or prepare dinner, but if you have such strong desires, please consider that there is another way to read this aspect combination.

Venus, Bacchus, Ceres and Amor by Jacob de Wit

Venus-Ceres is also a proper mirror of the 'loving family' that so many of us cherish in the final days of December. The symbols of "to please your loved ones" and "to nurture"  are connected by a somewhat obsessive aspect. The new born baby's of December 24/25 might love to cook or be fanatic loving mothers, born to cook. Maybe they will become men who see women as their caretakers? We will know what the result of this aspect will be in the years to come. Knowing that this Xmas love and nurture are bound together might help you to choose the right ingredients for Happy Holidays!
The aspect will be over as soon as the family and friends return to reality, anyway:)!

Wish you a Merry Christmas, something sweet for dinner and a peaceful gathering around the table, with nice company:).

(Those who don't celebrate Xmas might use this aspect to prepare a nice supper or to take care of someone special. Or why not buy a book about cooking? It is up to you how you will use the strong focus on motherly love and pleasant nutrition in the next two days.)

See you after Christmas!

Mars-Saturn synastry between parent and child

Mars-Saturn synastry isn't easy and sometimes scary. Mars-Saturn is about inevitable, obligatory action or inactivity. The drive for this action or inactivity duty, fear, age or caution. Mars is also about discipline. But it is hard to dose disciplinary measures with conflicts between Mars and Saturn. When the Mars of one person is in aspect with another person's Saturn, there is a potential death end and hard conflict between them that requires a lot of discipline to avoid trouble. 

Quoting myself in the post on the subject:

"So what if your Mars or Saturn is in conflict with another person's Saturn or Mars? Provided that you are not extreme personalities and driven by anger or violence, this relationship could be a longlasting one. However, with sometimes deadly criticism, perhaps. And maybe even the softer aspects end up in a cry: 'You ruined my life'!!!'
It takes a lot of fortunate indications (and a lot of Venus!) to beat the painfull aspects of the relationship."

You ruined my life… Sometimes this is what literally happens in Mars-Saturn synastry and I gave examples of it in the post that I  mentioned above.

But how about parents and children with a Mars-Saturn synastry? Here is a sad example that, I hope, is not exemplary.

ADAM AND NANCY LANZA's MARS-SATURN SYNASTRY

Natal, transits and progressions Nancy Lanza for December 14

I recently wrote about the Newton tragedy and the importance of Mars in the charts involved. Here is more about the synastry between Nancy and Adam Lanza. Nancy Lanza's Saturn is half sesquissquare (67.5 d) the Mars of her son and he killed her. Mars-Saturn is one of the aspects related to death ends. This potential Mars-Saturn anger also shows up in the square between her Mars and his.

Weapons are symbolized by Mars. We know now how her weapons were used against her. Mars-Mars synastry means fire.

- MORE MOTHER-CHILD AND MARS-SATURN SYNASTRY EXAMPLES

The aspect between mother and son Lanza simply means that on the day that Adam Lanza was born, transit Mars was 67.5 degrees away from Nancy's Saturn.
More mothers and their children have a Mars-Saturn synastry. It must have been hard labor to give birth on that day. The nature of the aspect in the Lanza-synastry is of a frustrating kind.

I have an example of a mother and daughter with 67.5 degrees between the daughter's Mars and the mother's Saturn. When she was a child, the daughter had been beaten and forced to do a lot of domestic tasks by her mother. There is a constant hidden anger about that and the daughter even consulted a psychologist in order to deal with her anger. From time to time they break up and don't see each other for years. The mother still thinks that being a disciplinary mother was the right way to be. So in this case, the Mars person was hurt.

 I have another example of son and mother with his Saturn quindecile her Mars. She never hit her children. He never hit her. Giving birth was rather painful. Both have an important Mars and Saturn in the natal chart. Maybe they practice counting to ten...

A third example is of a daughter and her mother with the daughter's Saturn square the mother's Mars. No harm done, between them, but the daughter always knows how to act like a parent...

There are many ways to express a Mars-Saturn synastry and perhaps also many ways to not express it... It all depends on the charts, the situation and culture. There is no astrology aspect that mirrors some kind of a 'fate'.

- VENUS AFFLICTIONS 

As I said, it takes a lot of Venus to conquer Mars-Saturn or to ease Mars-Mars. There was a lot of Venus between the charts of Nancy and Adam Lanza. Newspapers mention that he was part of a loving and caring family.

a. Nancy Lanza's Venus was inconjunct Adam Lanza's Sun. An inconjunct of Venus mirrors an overdose of love, not balances feelings of sympathy and eventually the risk of loss of love.
b. There was also Venus quindecile Venus between them (an obsessed mutual love). It was not that there wasn't any love.  It looks like there was almost too much of it.*)

- THIS WAS AN EXTREME EXAMPLE

Mars-Saturn and Venus-Saturn synastry is not uncommon in the interaction of charts of parents and children. It rarely leads to murder. But Adam Lanza was not a normal young man. He had mental problems. He also was in a difficult and challenging stressful period in his life (P Sun opposite Pluto).

- MORE ON THE PROGRESSED SYNASTRY ADAM-NANCY

In the post about Adam Lanza and the importance of Mars in the chart of the shooting and in the chart of the shooter I mentioned the progressions and transits. His progressed Sun was on an estimated 22.8 degrees Taurus opposition his natal and progressed Pluto. This difficult progression hit his mother's chart.
Adam Lanza's Progressed Sun and Pluto were square his mother's Uranus and semi sextile his mother's Mars. Mars, Pluto and Uranus in a combination are a dangerous trio. Sudden use of violence is one of the ways to read this combination. Dramatic change with aggression is another way to see Mars, Uranus and Pluto together.
It was a dangerously tense situation. Adam Lanza was born with mental problems. And his mother had a collection of weapons…

Natal, progressed and transits of Nancy Lanzo

The Sun, on the day of the tragedy of Newtown, was in the 23rd degree of Sagittarius. That is inconjunct the progressed Sun of Adam Lanzo and inconjunct his mother's Uranus and semi sextile his mother's Mars. That made it even more of a nervous day for her.
Nancy Lanza's Progressed Sun was on 5.5 Scorpio. That is inconjunct her son's Mercury and semi square her natal Mercury. Mercury is the symbol of contact, interactions and communications. It seems that there was a problem in understanding each other as if they were speaking on different levels.

The hours of birth are unknown. That means that a lot of the chart is unknown, like the position of the Moon, the midpoint sun/moon, the Ascendant and Midheaven, the angular positions and more…
But the synastry of the charts of the days of birth of mother and son shows a potential for hard conflicts, together with unbalanced love of two persons.

PARENTS AND CHILDREN WITH MARS-SATURN SYNASTRY

Mars-Saturn synastry between parents and children aren't always this hard. But I wonder if it would be wise to keep a certain distance when this Mars-Saturn synastry pops up between charts, especially when mother and child are adults. Time, responsibility and age or respect might be a barrier for anger and aggression for some time. But there will always be a potential for hurt and pain between the two, from the start and in the end. So if you and your parent or you and your child have a Mars-Saturn synastry: take care. Try to avoid long lasting conflicts. Try not to hurt each other to hard.

You can't turn back the clock and have your child on a day without Mars-Saturn synastry. With Mars-Saturn you have to learn how to deal with trouble, I guess. Parents and children in such an astrological situation need a lot discipline to avoid trouble...

Question:
Any ideas how to avoid hard conflicts in such a synastry?

*)( In fact, the example that I have of Venus quindecile Venus is also a tragic one about the love of a French woman for a German officer in World War2 (read: http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2012/08/venus-quindecile-venus-obsessive-love.html )

The importance of Mars in the Newtown tragedy

This post is about the tragedy in Newtown and the charts of the shooting and the shooter.

I wrote about charts of shooting incidents before (see: The importance of Mars in shooting charts)
These charts all contain an important Mars.  The chart of the moment of the first shot in Newtown also has an important Mars.  It is not strange to see an important Mars in the charts of shootings and shooters. Mars is the symbol of fire (energy) and in English to shoot a gun is to fire.

Mars is prominent, because Mars doesn't make a major aspect in sign or orb 5 degrees. That makes Mars 'calling' (read: aggression and action at any kind of level taking place). Saturn is elevated. Together Saturn and Mars illustrate the theme of discipline, death and ending energies. With Mars and Saturn prominently in the chart, we are to face difficulties (use link for more on that aspect).

Mars is also prominent in the chart of the shooter. Mars rises before his Sun (and before the inner planets). Mars is the orientational planet. When Mars rises before the Sun, there is a focus on action, producing, activism, using energy, aggression, male issues and muscles. (See: http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2009/04/mars-oriental-outer-planet-rising.html )

NATAL, PROGRESSIONS AND TRANSITS ADAM LANZA

Here you see the natal and progressed chart of the day of birth of the shooter, Adam Lanza. There is no time of birth available, but it is clear that whoever was born on that specific day has problems right now.
1. Progressed Sun is opposition Pluto. This confronts a person with cases of life and death, threats, danger and authorities. There is stress, there is pressure.
2. Also, there is Transit Pholus with natal Mars. This tells us about a turning point in energy and drives. 3.Transit Saturn quindecile (obsessive 165 degree aspect) with the Sun mirrors an extreme focus on endings, blockades and barriers. It is a very depressing aspect, that makes it hard to see the brighter sides of life.

The combination of the availability of weapons, the tendency to act/do something (Mars rising before Sun) and the times of troubles (Sun-Pluto, Saturn-Sun) were some of the keys to destruction and tragedy for the victims, their parents and family. The individual chart with time of birth might hold more clues.

URANUS-NEPTUNE: the hype
Many astrologers have already pointed at the tight conjunction of Uranus and Neptune in the shooter's natal chart. This so called generational conjunction is square Eris (symbol of discord) and semi square the important Mars. Uranus-Neptune is the combination of the media hype. Maybe the tales about the eve of destruction and doomsday attributed to the events.

PS
The brother of Adam Lanza, who also has Mars rising before the Sun, lost his mother and brother and even was a suspect for a while. With Mercury tightly square Neptune like in his chart, you are easily to become a suspect. See: http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2011/08/suspicious-aspects-re-west-memphis.html

LINK
http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2012/07/mars-uranus-pluto-neptune.html
When I studied the charts of the moment of the deathly shooting incident in Aurora, Denver and the positions of the day of birth of the shooter (December 13, 1987). I noticed that in both charts there is a narrow aspect combination of Mars-Uranus-Pluto. Also, in both charts Neptune is 'calling'*)! This coincidental correspondence happens to reflect what happened...
There is a quintile between Mars and Uranus in the chart of the shooting in Newtown and Pluto is square Uranus.

The astrology of Marquis de Sade

The chart of the author of 'Fifty shades' is as unknown as her date of birth. Now that '50 shades of Grey' is such a success, maybe it is a good time to have a look a the chart of Marquis De Sade, the man who gave his name to sadism. He didn't only write about sadism… he practised it.
What is in his chart?

CHART
Astro.com provides the AA-rated natal chart and an autobiography: http://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Sade,_Marquis_de
Here is more about the chart. There are a number of keys to his lifestyle. This chart has progressions (the green positions) and transits (the red ones) for his wedding day.

DOMINANCE: PLUTO
The Astro ID is like the 'special marks' in a passport. For this I look at the planets without major aspects, the planets on the angles or square AC and the planet rising before the Sun. Here we see:

Pluto on the Scorpio Ascendant
Mars rising before the Sun, square Venus-Saturn

Pluto is most prominent (angular). This placement mirrors the importance of cases of life and death, values, power and …sexuality. There is another reason for the importance of Pluto.
There is also a Golden Yod (quintiles/biquintiles) of Sun, Pluto and Midheaven, pointing at Pluto (dominance), creatively (quintiles). In the days of Marquis de Sade, Pluto was still unknown...

Second best is Mars: he is a do-er, an activist, aggressive maybe…but first of all: a man. The importance of Mars + Pluto is the importance of acts of violence and the drive to win (to be dominating).

Mars and Pluto are both in aspect with Midheaven (position, career). You might say that his intense (PLUTO) male hormones (MARS) were related to his reputation.

CHARACTER
The Gemini Sun and Virgo Moon with Scorpio Ascendant show us an intellectual person with a rather courageous or brutal way of 'doing it'. Writing pornographic sadistic stories seems to be in line with communicating (Mercury ruled Gemini and Virgo) about sex (Scorpio).

PASSION+DISCIPLINE+PAIN
Venus square Mars for passion and Saturn for the restrictions, the fear and control. With Venus-Saturn we see a marriage of convenience and broken hearts. Mars square Saturn challenges discipline. But another way to read this is: controlled (Saturn) passion (Venus). Sadism is about being in control + sex.

The tightest aspect in the chart is Moon trine Uranus, expressing the need for excitement and 'new' experiences.

I already mentioned the Golden Yod of Sun-Pluto and Midheaven. I also like to mention Sun/Moon conjunct Venus: being motivated by women, pleasure, style, beauty...

MARRIAGE AND NEPTUNE
I included the progessions for his wedding day for a reason...
When he married (May 17, 1763) there was a very illustrative aspect in his progressed chart. Progressed Sun in the 8th house (sex) was conjunct Neptune, ruler 5  (games) in the 8th house (sex). That is when it all started.

END
It ended after years in an institution for the mentally ill. It might have been a political choice, but it is also true that his stories were a lot more explicit and sadistic than the soft pornographic affair in '50 shades of Grey'...

Happy solar returns

If there are dramatic solar returns, there must be some happy ones, too! I found the following examples of happy solar returns. They are valid for years of expecting a baby, getting married, winning election, a coronation and meeting Mr. Right. In these solar return charts symbols of motherhood and success are  on the angles or elevated.


1. Expecting a baby with Juno and Ceres
Juno (marriage) and Ceres (dynasty) are on the horizon (the line Ascendant-Desendant) of Prince William this year. This is to tell us about the importance of marriage and genes in 2012/2013.

2. Winning elections with Jupiter
In April of 2011 and again after the elections of 2012, I pointed at the SR of Obama in 2012: Jupiter on Midheaven! That is a sign of success. Here is more on that solar return chart:

http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2011/04/oprah-obama-and-neptune.html
http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2012/11/to-win-elections-or-not-and-astrology.html 

3. Coronation

Dutch Queen Beatrix's coronation day was April 30, 1980. In that year her solar return chart had Ceres (dynasty!) elevated and Venus, ruler 4, on Midheaven. This signifies happiness, wishes coming true and the importance of genes above all!


4. Year of marriage or engagement with Venus:
- Prince William's SR for 2010 gives not much reason for the engagement and wedding  in the year to come, except for the position of the elevated Venus. But there were many other indications that you see here (like, for example, the important progressed Venus conjunct Sun): http://www.astromarkt.net/willam-and-kate-wedding-and-charts.html

- The Moon and Juno were on either side of the MC, and Venus close to the AC in the solar return chart for the year of the second marriage of Princess Margarita of the Netherlands.

And I have examples of the 'common people', too....
I know of someone with Venus ruler 7 on Midheaven in the SR chart who got married that year and another person with Jupiter ruler 7 opposition MC in the SR-year of meeting her later husband

So if you have such placements in your solar return this year: Happy Solar Return!:)

The final solar return of Ted Bundy

Recently I wrote about the chart of serial killer Ted Bundy and I also wrote about solar returns. Solar returns are  the charts drawn for the exact moment of your birthday. Searching for 'dramatic' solar returns, I tried the birthday chart of Ted Bundy, valid for the year of his execution, to see if the solar return chart reflected what was to follow... It turned out to be a dramatic solar return, indeed!

Here it is:

The Yod, pointing at the 8th house Jupiter, opposition the Sun seems to illustrate that matters of life and death (8th house) would soon be 'trending topics'. The solar return chart of his birthday on November 24, 1988 has:

- 3 (!) inconjunctions with Jupiter in the 8th house of life and death.
The quincunx or inconjunct aspect is the aspect of 150 degrees. This aspect means: losing balance or loss, out of plumb.

- These 3 inconjunctions create a double Yod (Venus-Saturn, Venus-Uranus and apex Jupiter) pointing at the 8th house of death! Venus is the ruler of the 8th house, Saturn of the 4th. Uranus happens to be the symbol of electricity.

- There is also a tight opposition between Sun and Jupiter in the 8th house.

In his situation in death row there was a serious indication of issues of life and death in the year to come, signaled on his birthday. Three inconjunctions (loss) pointing at the 8th house of dramatic change could hardly mean anything else but 'definite transformation'=death, in this situation.


There were of course transits and progressions enough to confirm the message of the solar return...

The solar return moment; an experience

Yesterday I wrote about my revolutionary solar return. Uranus-Pluto on the angles of the chart, remember? That's a spicy recipe for 2013!

Well, today was the solat return day and guess what happpened? I was alarmed. My husband phoned that he was in hospital with bad sight and flashes. It turned put to be nothing serious (at least, for now) and that was shortly after the solar return moment (7 minutes past 13:35) . It is a period in my life with a number of family members recovering from surgery (3 close family members!). And I am still (not) looking forward to meeting an endotologist.

But, the moment of the solar return was a moment of tension. Minutes later, there was relief.
I just calculated that those 7 minutes are less than 2 days in effect. On Thursday morning I will know for sure.

A reader suggested that Uranus-Pluto COULD mean total freedom, at last. And that is something to think over. This moment on the day of the solar return seems to confirm it. No more worrying...

How did you experience your solar return moment? Have you payed attention to that moment?

Transit Pholus in Sagittarius

Pholus is an asteroid, a small object that pops up in a chart as the catalyst. Transit Pholus often reflects the small and insignificant but irrevocable  trigger point. But what starts as a tiny thing can grow out of proportions, like the sudden rise of an X-factory star. Susan Boyle, for example, has Pholus on MC. Her career certainly has a point of no return. Pholus moves through Sagittarius. What happens when transit Pholus is conjunct the natal sun in Sagittarius?  

TRANSIT PHOLUS ON SAGITTARIUS SUN
In a few days (just before Xmas 2012) transit Pholus will be conjunct my Sun in 19d53 Sagittarius for the first time and more hits will follow in 2013. I'll pay special attention to those days of transit Pholus. It might be that someone or something will silently and slowly start changing my life. Or that someone's death will. Or... maybe nothing happens. I'll let you know and I am curious about your experiences.

Many Sagittarians had transit Pholus on their Sun in the 18th (17-18) or 19th (18-19) degree last year.  If you are one of them, please share your thoughts.
Any experiences? And if you had or hadn't, how prominent is your Pholus?

A prominent Pholus is angular, square Ascendant or on Sun/Moon or AC/MC, or on the apex of a Yod or as the 3rd party in a midpoint yod (that is the position opposite a midpoint). Also, the transit will be noticed more if you have an aspect (minor or major) between Sun and Pholus.

May the butterfly effect be prosperous for you!

1.
In my post http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2012/02/sun-pholus-whitney-houston-and-obama.html I mentioned the Sun-Pholus synastry between the charts of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown.  You can imagine that in synastry Pholus adds a special significance to the relationship. Something started changing when you met each other...

The good news of 2013 and 2014

Uranus square Pluto, change and problems in economy and crisis don't give much hope. But Jupiter always does! Transit Jupiter conjunct, sextile, trine and even square, opposition or inconjunct your Uranus promises good news. We all benefit when transit Jupiter travels through Gemini and Cancer in the next two years, even if it is because others in your family or community see a way to escape the negative trend and fly away on the wings of transit Jupiter with Uranus. One day it is YOUR turn...

My personal experience with Jupiter-Uranus transits is that they bring good news or positive change, like when I moved to better houses or when I heard positive news from the doctor. This blog is about the moments of transit Jupiter with YOUR Uranus. 

TRANSIT

Jupiter moves through Gemini and Cancer. Those are the signs where Uranus was between 1944 and september 1955. In June 2012 Jupiter changed sign to Gemini. Those who were born between May 1942 and August 1945 already experienced transit Jupiter conjunct Uranus between June 2012 and now. If you were born between April 1944 and August 1945 and you haven't yet noticed a positive change, you will have a second chance in the first months of 2013.

Between January 2013 and January 2015, Jupiter moves from the 7th degree of Gemini via 20.5 degree Cancer and back to 10d26 Cancer. Those born between 1944 and 1955 have transit Jupiter conjunct Uranus in the next years. Babyboomers AND other generations will be able to find out what transit Jupiter-Uranus will mean for them. Especially the generation of Uranus in Scorpio will be blessed. They will have transit Jupiter in Cancer trine their Uranus. Of course, there is a stronger effect for those with an important Uranus or Jupiter and those with a Jupiter-Uranus aspect in their natal chart. 

WHO AND WHEN?

Born between April 1944 and January 1996? 

1. April 1944-September 1948 (Uranus in Gemini): first 6 months of 2013

2. September 1948 -September 1955  - and a few other data later (Uranus in cCancer): mid 2013 - mid 2014

3. September 1955 - mid July 1957: July 2014

4. Mid of July 1957- August 10 1962 (Uranus in Leo): first 6 months of 2013

5. Mid September 1963 - June 2969 (Uranus in Virgo): TWICE! 

a. Transit Jupiter square your Uranus in the first 6 months of 2013

b. Later in 2013 and in 2014 when Jupiter is in Cance, especially for those born between August 10 1962 and June 1969.

6. In your 40s with Uranus in Libra and born between November 1969 and end of November 1974? A relief is on the way in the first 6 months of 2013. For those born between end of June 1969 and November 22, 1974 it takes more effort to see the positive result. 

7. Uranus was in Scorpio from November 22, 1974 to mid of November 1981. The trine between Jupiter and your Uranus will take place somewhere between June 2013 and end of 2014.

8. Mid of November 1981-mid of October 1983 with Uranus in the first 6.5 degrees of Sagittarius: you will see the transit as a positive development by or with others . Later you might experience positive changes that 'cost you' something. 

9. Mid October 1983 to January 1996 with Uranus between the 7th of Sagittarius and the final degree of Capricorn:  otheres will make you see the positive change. 

Have a look at the progressed chart too for the second chance:)! And don't forget that minor aspects like quintiles, septiles, noviles, biquintiles and binoviles or even quatronoviles might have a major effect. It goes to far to mention all the possible moments and birth dates.
