Retrograde Jupiter & Pluto in Capricorn Conjunction June 30 2020

“Every life is a work of art.”

This is the 2nd conjunction out of 3 between Jupiter the planet of beliefs, optimism, expansion and Pluto, the planet of deep desire, past traumas + fears & transformation. It’s about connecting our highest ideals with the deepest, most authentic parts of our selves, merging ultimate truth in a certain area of life for each of us. No small feat.

Being in the sign of Capricorn themes include limitations from the past, patterns of beliefs & established structures that currently govern us. The 2nd round is a retrograde influence, an internal journey that gives us the opportunity to look even deeper within, to reinforce how that truth will be born, rooted from the inside out.  For some it has been a subtle, subconscious shift, for others the ground has cracked open, dirt crumbling all around. With no other way to go but down.

Saturn slips back into Capricorn, an invited energy since Saturn does well in its own sign. A companion down there, an internal guide to oversee details, frame the work. Saturn’s practical energy within will keep us focus, give purpose. More importantly, it is the part of us that can stick to the long-range goal, a reminder of the virtue of patience & hard work & that we are our own authority.

The way up is an arduous climb, but by the time the planets have turned direct later in the year, limitations of the past should be cleared, transformations underway. With the ground beneath nutrisous & firm. A solid foundation created by our authoritative hands, we can feel confident about recommencing new structures being built for the 3rd round of the conjunction. The view of the horizon looks optimistic.
