Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction + The Full Moon in Scorpio
“For a seed to achieve its greatest expression, it must come completely undone. The shell cracks, its insides come out and everything changes. To someone who doesn't understand growth, it would look like complete destruction.” - Cynthia Occelli
As Uranus and Jupiter’s conjunction finally reaches exactitude at 21º Taurus on April 21st (03:27am BST), the sense of breaking open in order to break free may suddenly intensify. Asking you to consider, what must change, what must be released, and what must be done differently, in order for you to expand and grow.
If you’ve been ignoring the silent hum of impending metamorphosis, then this cosmic collision may just come with a shock, bringing unexpected events, or the revelation of information. Personal or global.
And whilst these two come together to form a conjunction every fourteen years - the last time being January 4th 2011 - they have not met in the sign of Taurus since May 8th 1941! So this may create something of a dramatic shift, both personally, but also collectively.
When it comes to the latter: Here Uranus’ volatility may become enlarged by Jupiter, seeing issues of unpredictability arise in regards to matters such as the weather, agriculture, technology, financial systems, and the economy. In some cases, there may be advancements and in other cases, collapse.
When it comes to you personally: This can be a time of great change, with a particular area of your life - denoted by the house that this conjunction is situated in, within your natal chart - about to get a total upgrade. But of course, change, even the type you wish for, can sometimes feel unsettling…
Enter the Full Moon on April 24th (00:48AM BST) at 4º Scorpio.
This lunation will be bringing to a conclusion what began with the New Moon on November 13th 2023, at 20º Scorpio, when you were called to return home to yourself, to the core of your wounds, to the darkest, shadowy depths of your soul.
In the months that have passed, have you come to find solace in solitude. Meaning in the seemingly meaningless. And the courage to care for your most sensitive parts, without shame, without guilt, without judgement.
As the Moon comes into opposition with the Sun, at 4º Taurus, the two shall form a somewhat tantalising square to Pluto in Aquarius, creating something of a pressure point that, if utilised, could lead to your greatest transformation yet.
Here the cosmos is stipulating that in order to embody your most liberated and authentic self, you must first come into balance. Thus, issues related to power and powerlessness, self vs other, what is hidden as opposed to what is seen, and thriving over surviving, may arise, bringing an emotional intensity along with it.
With Pluto additionally squaring the North Node, Mercury Rx, Chiron, and Venus, all conjunct in Aries, the only way out is through. So, can you finally face that which you have until now been in avoidance of. Are you finally willing to sit in the discomfort, the grief, the shame, or the guilt that arises, in the understanding that nothing can be healed until it’s acknowledged.
If this seems like a weighty task, know that there will be some support provided, in the form of a Saturn-Mars-Neptune conjunction in Pisces. Here we see the opportunity to look at things from a bird’s eye view, in order to see them differently.
In doing so, can you move beyond the mind, so as to dial into a higher point of consciousness. Seeing and understanding that everything that occurs does so to help you along your path of evolution. And as such, can you release your attachment to what has occurred. Can you change your relationship to it. So that you can utilise what it offered you.
If so, life may start to take on a new hue, as you liberate yourself from the density and move towards something altogether lighter and more ethereal. An energetic space that calls you to engage in playfulness. That encourages you to dream.
Reminding you in the process, that you are the co-creator of your life and that joy is your birthright.
As Mercury will station direct in the wake of this lunation, on April 25th, at 15ºAries, it’s time to step into your personal power and determine for yourself the course of your life.
