Jupiter in Gemini: the year ahead
On May 25 2024, Jupiter will depart the sign of Taurus where it's been for the last year and move into the sign of Gemini where it will remain until June 2025, (before it moves into the sign of Cancer,the sign where Jupiter is "exalted.")
In fact, as we move into the last ten days of this month, Gemini will feature prominently among the luminaries and planets, as the Sun and Venus will ingress into the sign of the twins. This represents a significant shift in energy, personally and collectively.
Jupiter brings expansion, growth, opportunity but also a higher, bigger picture awareness of whatever sign its in. In the sign of Taurus, this area of focus was on financial security, values, stability as well as all things "real" and "earth" based: food, agriculture, the natural world and the experience of our 5 senses.
As Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius which is naturally connected to more expansive intellectual, spiritual and philosophical pursuits, it was not the most "natural" configuration. Taurus wants to root down into the earth and the sensory pleasures of being embodied in the physical world and restless Sagittarius wants to go higher and..farther...
Now with Jupiter moving into Sagittarius's opposite sign, we're getting an altogether different focus for the next 13 months. Gemini is an air sign, interested in communications, contacts, and connections. It has a curious and detached perspective and this transit will invite us to develop and expand along these lines as well.
What skills do you want to learn and develop? Out of a sense of fun, curiosity or perhaps towards pursuing something that will help you in your business r leadership capacity?
Jupiterian energy is focused on a higher - and more leadership-oriented perspective...less concerned with blending in, more interested in speaking its truth.
Now, Mercury-ruled Gemini is typically more interested in matters of a "lower-mind" nature: facts, figures, things that have a more mundane application, though it also loves to learn simply for the sake of it. This will be a wonderful time to marry these two energies; seeing how the details come together inside the larger picture of our dreams and goals.
Jupiter also has an important theme of synthesizing and bringing together seemingly opposite or opposing energies (the Temperance card in tarot is sometimes associated with Sagittarius (or Libra) which has a similar approach, though Sag is less concerned with making things "fair" and more concerned with the "Greater” Truth")
A challenge for Jupiter in Gemini is to not get overwhelmed in a sea of information (there could be an info overload in the year ahead, or simply that we're asked to absorb a lot of information in a short period of time.)
We can never have all the "perfect information;" that's where we need to lean into our decision-making (and responsibility-taking) authority.
September 1 Pluto will move back into the sign of Capricorn for a couple months for its final hurrah. The transit of Pluto in Capricorn (since 2008) was a rigorous one, asking us to take authority and assume responsibility for our decisions to move our lives in the direction we know is in our best and longer-term interests.
So we'll need to do a little dance between this more authoritative stance and the more light-hearted explorative energy the next year of the Jupiter in Gemini will bring us.
I drew a card from Colette Baron-Reid’s Spirit Animal Oracle with the question: what do Conscious Leaders need to know about how they can serve at the Highest Level at this time?
This is a beautiful and profound call to Trust. Trust in the Great Mystery and to surrender to a higher, spiritual perspective that we can’t always discern the contours of through our five senses.
Paradoxically, when we start to really, truly accept our lack of ability to control much of anything, we find we have more energy to make aligned choices that can actually benefit us, those we serve and by extension, the whole.
Actually committing to this is a daily (if not hourly:) practice.
