Jupiter’s transit of a sign takes one year. In 2022, Jupiter’s journey was fragmented, transiting from Pisces to Aries, back to Pisces, and now back to Aries. This extended passage between watery Pisces and fiery Aries created a stark contrast in expression for the planet of expansion.
Jupiter in Pisces expands the energy of the Mystical Dreamer – one who swims through the watery world of imagination. This energy is spiritual, artistic, and magical. Jupiter in Aries expands the energy of The Warrior – active, impulsive, and initiatory. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and the melting pot for all the previous signs. Aries is the first sign and represents the birth of a new phase.
In the language of Shamanic Egyptian Astrology Jupiter is aligned with Horus, son of Isis and Osiris. Osiris is killed by his brother Set, initiating an epic struggle between Horus and Set. This battle is eventually won by The Young King and the new Aeon begins.
Pisces is allied with Sothis, the blue star Sirius, sacred to ancient Egyptian culture. Aries is allied with Khepera, the rising Sun. Every day is a new beginning, with opportunities for movement in a new direction.
As different as these two signs are, Jupiter is closely associated with both of them. In ancient astrology, rulership of Pisces was assigned to Jupiter. Jupiter in Pisces is very comfortable in the mystical world of other dimensional realities. Jupiter in Aries brings forth a very different expression – that of the confident, determined, and inspired Earth Warrior. With the exit of Jupiter from Pisces the time for dreaming has come to an end. This Young King is ready to act.
Jupiter/Horus will remain in the emanation of Aries/Kephera from December 20, 2022 until May 16, 2023.
