Transiting Saturn entered the sign of Pisces on March 8, 2023 and will slowly move through this sign. Saturn went into retrograde in June, 2023, and will do so again in July, 2024, and in July 2025. In November, 2025 it turns direct.  It enters Aries in May 2025 but enters the various retrograde cycles returning to Pisces and does not return to Aries again until February, 2026. 

 

Saturn while in retrograde actually works more favourably than while in its direct motion, so the retrograde cycles are important.

 


Saturn in Pisces will build a solid foundation and your ideologies connected with psychic matters may become more reliable and constructed in such a way that there would be far less “wondering” if something is factual or not.
Saturn in Pisces

Saturn is all about structure and reliability. It wants to preserve its energy for a very real focus of substance and what might be considered things that relate to reality and that which is real.  While moving through the sign of Pisces (which is quite the opposite of these characteristics), Saturn will want to look through the lens of clarity and definition.  The mystical and intuitive qualities of Pisces will need to be weighed out and structured in such a way that only facts pass the iron test of Saturn.  There will be no wondering if something is real or imagined as life will go through a period of reflection, reality focus and questioning if it is viable and concise.

 

Your spiritual connection may go through a period of testing and its validity will be confronted. You may go through a period of questioning whether this is practical and real or not.  Your mystical and perhaps your religious inclinations may go through a period of examination and assessment.  After, and often during the times of retrograde, the potential for solidification and structuring takes place. Your ideologies connected with psychic matters may become more reliable and constructed in such a way that there would be far less “wondering” if something is factual or not. 

 

There may be some hurtles to overcome, and a questioning period that takes place, but you will know with much more certainty than you did prior to this period.  The truth will be told and if any of your planets and angles are connected to Saturn during its Piscean stay (particularly the conjunction aspect), the house placements will have an important role in what area of life will be involved and perhaps reconstructed. 

 

You will find the answers to anything that has been vague or uncertain as time passes. Use this information taught by Saturn in Pisces to make conscious decisions for the next steps in your life’s ongoing adventure.

There will be a New Moon in the sign of Capricorn at 20° 44” on January 11, 2024, at 6:57 am EST. 

 

A new moon is a Conjunction of the Sun and the Moon. This Conjunction of the Sun and Moon also makes a Trine to Transiting Uranus which is at 19° Taurus. 


With the Capricorn New Moon and its influences, you will have to work towards these objectives and there can be no half measures.  Uranus, will want you to jump but Saturn will want you to resist.
Capricorn New Moon

The energies of Uranus are known as the awakener and the driving force behind change that is required at the time.  Uranus pushes us in new directions because our current path no longer suits our evolutionary process.

 

If you have planets or angles within 3° of this placement either by Conjunction or Opposition and to a lesser degree Square, Trine and Sextile, you will be influenced by this New Moon’s energies.  Check the houses of all planets and angles involved in your chart to get a full picture of what areas of life will be influenced.

 

The object of a New Moon is to set your intensions for a long-term goal that will manifest its energies by the time we have our Full Moon in Capricorn some six months from now.  Prepare yourself for what you deem important at this time.  It might be advisable to write your intensions or goals down. When we write something on paper, we set our intensions beyond just a mental concept.

 

There is a degree of indecision or hesitation when we are talking about Capricorn (which is ruled by Saturn).  Saturn is overly cautious and worried until its energies has been committed to something.  Due to Saturn’s influence, focus your goals around business pursuits and long-range plans. 

 

You must understand that you will have to work towards these objectives and there can be no half measures about this.  What you put into your goals will be scrutinized when we have our Capricorn Full Moon. Sometimes we can make changes along the way that better suit the situation although with Capricorn these changes may not come easily.  Uranus, however, will want you to jump but Saturn will want you to resist.

 

You will have to consciously plan your route of intension often bringing something new and exciting into life.  If you already had made plans prior to this New Moon, then you can look to see what is left to do to attain your goals.  In many cases, however, we begin something new under the New Moon energies. Capture these energies and use them to your advantage.  It is always more productive to work with the energies at hand, then to fight them and struggle with something unrelated.

We will focus on Transiting Jupiter Opposition Natal Mars in this post.


You will likely feel more assertive and enthusiastic about your endeavors under this influence.  Using this energy in positive ways should be your focus and if you have something that needs work, especially any fears that you might have, now will be the time where you can find ways to overcome them.
Jupiter Opposition Mars

The transit of Jupiter, unless it moves into retrograde motion, lasts approximately three weeks.  Jupiter is about expansion, opportunities and growth through life experience or life lessons. 

 

Mars’ energies are about drive and ambition and wants to move forward via direct action.  Sometimes these energies need a push but under most conditions, they are assertive on their own. 

 

The opposition often involves others and can define itself by overaction, excessive energy and sometimes too much drive and ambition.  Sometimes with this combination of Jupiter and Mars, we need to set limits and realize that we can make impulsive decisions that might not work in our favor in the long run.

 

You will likely feel more assertive and enthusiastic about your endeavors under this influence.  You may have to watch for promising more than you can deliver because of this enthusiastic push to make things happen.  Others may feel this push from you and take advantage of your outgoing nature under this influence.  You do seem to be a source of opportunity and drive and may send out energetic vibes that can make others feel that you can bring good luck and opportunities their way (as well as in your own direction).  Sometimes we need to hold back and review what we wish to accomplish before moving forward. In many cases, however, things just seem to work and fall into place.

 

Using this energy in positive ways should be your focus and if you have something that needs work, especially any fears that you might have, now will be the time where you can find ways to overcome them. 

 

Jupiter, regardless of the type of aspect, will most often bring desired results through actively seeking resolution or associated action.  There are big opportunities for growth, but you will have to be the push but don’t push too hard especially if you oversee others.  The drive that you have right now may not be shared by your co-workers or assistants.

 

In case Jupiter does go into its retrograde cycle, you may find that it passes over your Natal Mars three times.  Once when it initially moves across the area, a second time when it moves over it again in retrograde and the final time when it passes over it once again when it returns to direct motion.  The initial connection when Jupiter reaches our Natal Mars is usually the strongest and the time to move ahead.  The second time it moves across while in retrograde might be the best time to make plans for what you need to do. When it crosses Natal Mars for the last time, you may make the final decisions that were initiated in the first pass and finalize things.
