Jupiter Saves the Day

I have been asked about the many benefits I have received during a grand cross between transit Saturn, transit Neptune opposing my natal Saturn and progressed Saturn, my nodes, my ascendant and the transit Moon filling in the grand cross.

The was a difficult grand cross. This grand cross fulfulled what is called the "Natal Promise". The natal chart tells us what may happen in life; it makes a promise that things will come to pass. Saturn making a return to natal Saturn and triggering a natal square between Saturn, the ascendant and the nodes told me that something was coming up. Saturn triggered the "natal promise" of Saturn, square to the ascendant, and the nodes. Many teachers say that an aspect may not manifest if it is not a repeat of a natal chart aspect. I have found this to be true, more often than not.

The thing that saved me in the case of the Saturn return bringing loss to my home is transiting Jupiter in Sagittarius. I am having a Jupiter return, and Jupiter in my natal chart is in good condition. Jupiter acts as a protector in this case and lessens any loss, in fact, it brings benefits, which I have seen on a daily basis.

On May 3, the day of the fire, transit Jupiter was in my 8th house of other people's money, and brought monetary benefits from other people, as well as insurance. After Jupiter retrograded back into the 7th house, the money stopped coming in, and the focus was on other people, not just their money. By the time Jupiter goes direct and back into the 8th house, most of the paperwork will be done and money will come in once again.

My birth data is 12/23/47 1:50 PM, Manchester, CT

The Uranus opposition to Mercury in the 8th, the ruler of 2nd house of finances shows that money comes to me in unusual ways, that it is a windfall or a downfall, and that astrology is a source of income, but I don't depend on money coming only from my profession. I attract things in the blink of an eye, sometimes too many things!

I normally have a positive attitude anyway, although Saturn ruling the Sun in Capricorn can make me dour, pessimistic, and critical at times. I'm working on that. The positive grand trine in my natal chart, (Sun, Moon, Mars), makes it easier for me to look for good outcomes. Grand trines can be lazy, and I will attest to that. It took a fire to force me to clear out the clutter.

A Proper Capricorn

Being a proper Capricorn, I want to share some of the things I’ve learned since I had to move out of my home due to a fire. Since we are near the opposition of Saturn to Neptune, this is a good time to review the responsibility and order of Saturn and combine it with the faith of Neptune.

First I want to impress on you that attracting or creating the fire that made me move out of my home was not a necessarily negative or positive attraction. When something is attracted that seems negative, look at it again to see what it is telling you. Everything is an experience that is showing you exactly where you are on your path in life.

I was told that I have good insurance. I know some new age people think that insurance is a negative thing. I believe it is just another thing in life that we choose to do to be part of what is called the consensus reality. What I have paid in insurance over the years is now coming back to me ten-fold. To me insurance is just what is, a way to share my money with others. I think of the people who offer the insurance as those who want to help in a disaster. I’ve never thought of it as something to protect me and keep the boogeyman away, or fending off the fear of disaster and loss. Anyway, in this country if you buy a home, insurance is required.

Eventually our reality will reach a point that help after a disaster will come from many other sources and insurance may be unnecessary. Once the people in our building who did not have insurance got past the initial shock and fear, miracles started happening.

I’ll share what I’ve learned about preparation for a fire. Saturn (lessons and responsiblity) likes to teach about fire (Leo). Actually, you don’t have to do these things if you are able to hold to the faith that the unseen world will help you (Neptune) and that everything is always ok. But not all of us are there yet, nor do we have to be. Don’t pressure yourself to be the perfect New Age person.

Know your exits, have an escape plan (and maybe keep your bag with extra keys by the exit)

Keep records in a safe place, preferably off your property, this includes back up discs.

Make an inventory of everything you own, take pictures, store copies off the property or in a fireproof, waterproof, shatterproof box.

Make sure your insurance is up to date. One of my neighbors said her insurance lapsed three days before the fire and she wasn’t aware of it.

Make sure your loss of use will cover the current rental prices for at least a year

Make sure all the phone numbers you need are accessible. Have you tried to call Verizon lately? Good luck.

If you have medications, keep some extra pills in a little box, or know how to replace them immediately. The fire department in our town made recovery of medications a priority after the fire was out.

Have faith and listen to your intuition. In the months before the fire, I didn’t listen, and I’m spending more time doing paperwork (Saturn is probably admonishing me for not listening to my intuition, which is related to Neptune. It’s ironic how Saturn and Neptune work together.)

I am building a stronger faith than ever, and as I do so, I see wonderful things happening in my life.

One last thought about stuff, it’s hard to explain, but when you lose it there is a feeling of freedom. (Neptune likes being released from the material world of Saturn.)

I’m also surprised at how easily I am adapting to new living conditions, and I have many fixed planets in my chart.

As I wake each day, I look for the wonders.

We live in the form world of Saturn and are reaching for the higher world of Neptune. Do the groundwork (Saturn) and you will be free to connect with faith that the unseen world is always on your side (Neptune).
Wishing You Magic and Miracles
