Jupiter-Saturn Face Off, Part Two
BY: ABHAYA MUDRA DEVI DASI
Sep 23, 2011 — BLAGOEVGRAD, BULGARIA (SUN) —
The New Millennium
As the 20th century had begun with Saturn and Jupiter conjoined in fiery Sagittarius, so the 21st century dawned with the conjunction of the two titans portentously locked in another fire sign, Aries. Of these two Agni rashis Aries, as "the unstoppable force," is especially the sign of brute power, recklessness and a lack of feelings. At its higher octave, Aries can inspire right action at the right time. But not in this case. The doorway to the new century witnessed the implementation of new forms of subtle yet ruthless power and control. The rule of brutal giant corporations so powerful they could influence policy in hundreds of countries contradicted the image conjured by Aries, which rules the head. Now the inferior qualities of Aries would prevail. The world's citizens were to fall under the spell of ruthless corporate control mostly without realizing it. Neither did the average person have any voice or power with which to fight back.
In 2001 Jupiter and Saturn conjoined in Taurus, the sign of the bull which by now had been completely eliminated from agriculture. Huge corporations ruled mechanized farms and the traditional farmers have become virtually extinct. The food supply was now gripped dangerously in the hands of a few.
Coming Soon: 14 Nov. 2011
On 15 November of this year we will witness the next historical opposition of Saturn and Jupiter. We have already seen these two in opposition several times in recent months. The titans were in Pisces and Virgo respectively during June to October 2010 and then again from December 2010 till April of this year. Jupiter moved in Aries in May. As of this writing he is not in opposition with Saturn yet who is still in Virgo. But in a mere two months when Saturn enters Libra, another opposition will be formed. At this time Saturn will be in his sign of exaltation aspecting Jupiter in Aries—Saturn's sign of debility. As we have observed during this brief but historical overview, when there is a conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter, far-reaching events are set into motion. Next, when these two form a consecutive opposition the events foretold by their conjunction fructify.
Times to Come
Oppositions involving Jupiter and Saturn in the Aries-Libra axis have been witnessed in the 20th century on a few occasions. In 1911 Jupiter in Libra opposed Saturn in Aries. Again, in both 1953 and in 1970 Jupiter in Aries became opposed by Saturn in Libra. The future of the world could mirror to some degree the opposition which occurred in 1970, except that the 1970 opposition was preceded by conjunctions of Saturn and Jupiter in both Sagittarius and in Capricorn. This time the conjunction occurred in Aries (2000) and Taurus (2001).
Taurus is the ruler of the Muslim world and countries of the Middle East. Exalted Saturn represents hard and fast rules while Jupiter in Aries stands for raw power. Considerations regarding ensuing consequences will hardly phase the Powers that Be when Jupiter tries to break the well-established world order. Besides the opposition of Saturn and Jupiter, Mars will be transiting Leo for nearly seven months from 31st October 2011 through May of 2012. Jupiter will lend his favorable aspect to Mars and together they will try to pull down the rules and regulations that Saturn strives to accomplish. Their techniques of operation will be shadowy because Mars will be aspecting the subversive Rahu who is shamelessly debilitated in the negative sign of Mars, Scorpio. During the next six months, especially after 31 October, unfathomable covert military schemes will be set into motion in many parts of the world.
The June edition of The Astrological Newsletter offered some details regarding this years' maximum number of seven eclipses, of which two remain. These eclipses will also occur in the signs of Taurus and Scorpio respectively on 25 November (solar) and 10 December (lunar). This situation further implements the countries which are under Taurus and which are rich in oil. Oil is a murky dark liquid ruled by the watery sign of Scorpio. Therefore corporate-sponsored military conflicts of significant proportions are expected. The powerful position of an exalted Saturn should not be overlooked. Corporate and banking perpetrators while hiding behind banners proclaiming "Democracy" or "Freedom" would like to take as much oil as they can lay their hands on in exchange their for rapidly declining fiat currency. Saturn will remain in exaltation until 4 Nov 2014, long after Mars has exited Leo on 2 Jun. 2012 and Jupiter has abandoned Aries on 16 May 2012. From what we can discern, in June 2012 some major conflicts will be resolved. There will be no world war; at least until the next meeting of the titans.
The future is but the cyclic repetition of the past. Today the wheel of time is set to duplicate the positions of Saturn and Jupiter at the beginning of the 20th century. There will be conjunctions of Jupiter and Saturn in Capricorn off and on during 2021-22. Then there will be the opposition of Saturn and Jupiter from the signs of Libra and Aries in 2029 and again in Scorpio and Taurus respectively in 2030. Saturn will be debilitated in Aries after 2027 and this situation always leads to self-appointed power-hungry individuals wreaking havoc upon the world.
Saturn and Jupiter will find themselves opposed in the Taurus-Scorpio axis in 2030, something the world has not seen for 2½ centuries. This is a sign of imminent change throughout the world. The years following 2030 will be crucial, a situation that can only be rectified by the sankirtana movement of Lord Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Only the yuga dharma of sankirtan as bequeathed to the world by Shrila Prabhupada can save the Earth from grave dangers and destruction.
Let us pray therefore for the mercy of their Lordships Shri Shri Gaura-Nitai that They may empower all Their devotees throughout the world for the deliverance of the fallen conditioned souls.
Date of the Coming Satya Yuga
The time clock in Kali Yuga is set in such a way that planets move at a relatively higher motion. Even slow-moving planets like Saturn, who stays in a sign for 2½ years, and Jupiter, who remains in a rashi for about a year, appear to speed up. Periods in Kali Yuga appear to be defined by the opposing mutual aspects of Saturn and Jupiter. The titans tend to repeatedly oppose one another from particular signs until they move to the neighboring two signs and oppose one another again. At the beginning of Kali Yuga single conjunctions and oppositions were the rule but then, as we have documented here in our description of the 20th and 21st Centuries, multiple oppositions and conjunctions started to occur in two consecutive signs. But even more significant and rare are the Saturn-Jupiter conjunctions in three consecutive signs which happened from 1950 to 1953.
This event was followed in 1962 by the most significant gola yoga which marked the resetting of Universal time. It slowed the fan of Kali Yuga and lead to the promised mini Satya Yuga.
Oppositions of Saturn in Libra and Jupiter in Aries have become commonplace in the 20th and 21st centuries as these two signs rule the 1st and the 7th houses. The 1st house signifies the "self" while the 7th represents "others." Hence, when the titans occupy the 1st and the 7th the meeting stands for the monarchy and the plebeians; or the corporations and the ordinary folk; the "I" and the "You" factor; the Godhead and the individual ego. Over the past 2¼ centuries the most frequent Saturn-Jupiter oppositions have occurred either in the axis' of either Aries/Libra, Virgo/Pisces or Gemini/Sagittarius. The cycle of these three particular oppositions instigated towards the end of the 18th Century will slow down around 2040. At that time we will observe two consecutive yuga yogas (please see the article in The Astrological Newsletter #21, 28 May 2011). These world-shaping planetary alignments will occur within two months of each other in 2040 on September 5th and October 5th. After 9 October 2040 oppositions between Saturn and Jupiter will become infrequent and short-lived. Furthermore, consecutive sign conjunctions of the two titans will no longer be the rule of the day. These serve as optimistic yet certain indications that the horrible wars today victimizing helpless nations by super powers will diminish.
From 2041 onwards the promised mini-Golden Age of Satya Yuga will gradually gain further ascendancy. (written 9 Sept. 2011)
