<\/dt>\nThe temporal context in which to appropriately hearken Jupiter’s ingress to Leo’s fixed fire is the year-plus since it entered Cancer’s cardinal waters on June 25, 2013.<\/p>\n
During the now-concluding tour of its Cancer exaltation, Jupiter has simultaneously served two major roles in astrology’s continuous big picture.<\/p>\n
One role was as the symbolic valve that opened an unprecedented water trine aspect. Combined with Neptune in its Pisces rulership and joined by Saturn’s long slog through Scorpio (both of which are still in progress), Jupiter’s expansive nature completed a grand water trine that continuously flowed around the zodiac for over 12 months, symbolically irrigating every heart’s evolution.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The results of the grand water trine of 2013\/14 are not yet conclusive. If Jupiter’s participation hearkened an expansion of your respect and appreciation for the roles emotion, intuition and empathy play in your life, hearken to that. Just imagine how every person may have had something similar elapse for them, and be heartened by the conception.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At the same time it was participating in a historic grand water trine, Jupiter’s traversal of Cancer also saw it play a crucial role in an equally historic grand cardinal cross.<\/p>\n
Unlike signs sharing the same element (fire, earth, air or water), signs that have the same quality (cardinal, fixed or mutable) do not have a harmonious, flowing relationship.<\/p>\n
That’s how aspects between cardinal signs tend to be initiations for you rather than cultivations of you. The grand cardinal cross in both its primary and secondary manifestations has been no exception, initiating you (and everybody else at the same time) into what, for better or worse, appears to be a new stage of evolution for humanity.<\/p>\n
Jupiter in cardinal Cancer combining with Mars’ retrograde-prolonged tenure in cardinal Libra, and the longer-term continuum of Uranus in cardinal Aries repeatedly squaring Pluto’s slow progress through cardinal Capricorn, has been a primary manifestation of the grand cardinal cross.<\/p>\n
Secondary manifestations of the grand cardinal cross (such as last weekend’s Capricorn Full Moon) have functioned to extend and elaborate upon the combined aspect of Mars, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto.<\/p>\n
Jupiter’s heartening role (in the context of its opposition to Pluto and square aspects to Mars and Uranus), has hearkened to its part in the grand water trine as that of a valve. In the case of this grand cardinal cross, however, Jupiter has been a different kind valve.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jupiter’s constituency in the grand cardinal cross has functioned as a pressure-release valve. The magnanimous component of Jupiter’s nature has combined with the soothing waters of Cancer to keep your initiation (and simultaneously that of everybody else) from getting out of hand when other events, such as Mercury retrogrades, have added to the intensity.<\/p>\n
Appropriately (and setting the stage for Jupiter’s auspicious ingress to Leo), Mercury separates from the confining arc of its most recent retrograde tonight. In doing so, Mercury will hearken back to the last time<\/a> it moved on past a point of an apparent reversal, thereby symbolically encouraging you to move on through any perceived and subsequent setbacks of your own.<\/p>\n And as you move on, so will the astrology of this week — a week when Jupiter’s entry to Leo will be the centerpiece, but not the final word to hearken or be heartened by. But those are tales better left for later in the week as well.<\/p>\n Offered In Service<\/em><\/p>\n Len is available for astrology readings.
