Beyond Binaries: Jupiter, Uranus, and a Queer Dance in Taurus

Image
On December 31, 2023, Jupiter undergoes a significant shift, transitioning from retrograde motion to direct motion in the zodiac, specifically in the sign of Taurus. This pivotal change begins a period that sets Jupiter on a trajectory to align with Uranus on April 18, 2024. Then on April 21, the sun enters the third degree of Taurus—a crucial point known as the Exaltation Degree of the moon. Looking at the end of this period where the conjunction occurs, we can start now to prepare for the journey to come in the next several months.   In this third degree of Taurus, a remarkable planetary phenomenon occurs.

In this context, the moon's placement in Cancer during the birth of the world is a poignant connection, inviting contemplation on the cyclical nature of time. The cosmic ballet unfolds as the moon engages in a dance with both Saturn and the sun, creating a celestial...

In the realm of Modern and Evolutionary astrology, the imminent ingress of Pluto into Aquarius echoes the pulse of change reverberating through the collective consciousness. This transition, set to culminate in 2024...
