The winter solstice is coming up soon: December 21. What makes this winter solstice quite different than most is that there will be a conjunction of two major planets in alignment. Both Jupiter and Saturn.
Let’s first talk about what is almost always true for December 21st of any year- it is the Solstice.
The Solstice is a time where the veil between dimensions is thin. It is also a time where we are more open and connected with the energies of the Earth.
We are able to feel with greater ease that we are not just beings on this Earth, but beings of the Earth.
The Solstice is also the start of a new season depending on where in the world you live, and a new season always brings a transition of energy.
The December Solstice was chosen for this day as it was said to signify a “return to the light.”
In 2020, December 21st, stands out as being a potent day, not just because of the Solstice, but also due to a very rare alignment taking place this year known as the Grand Conjunction.
Furthermore, there is also a Total Solar Eclipse just before this on December 14, which also adds to the energy.
The Solar Eclipse opens a portal to a brand new beginning and the Grand Conjunction a few days later will amplify this portal energy.
The Grand Conjunction 2020
The Grand conjunction occurs every twenty years or so, and is when both Jupiter and Saturn align at the same degree of the zodiac.
The Grand Conjunction represents a changing of an era, and a time where we shift our way of viewing the world.
As our world view changes, so too does society and the way we choose to approach things.
While the Grand Conjunction happens every couple of decades, the 2020 alignment opens the door to an even bigger cycle.
For the last 200 years, Jupiter and Saturn have been aligning only in earth signs, but this year, on December 21st, 2020, Jupiter and Saturn will align in the air sign of Aquarius.*
* according to tropical astrology. In Jyotish astrology these two planets will align in Capricorn. The point being here, is that regardless of the signs used there still will be a grand conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter at the winter solstice which heightens the energy at this time.
