Three steps - that's all it takes. Three giant footsteps, that is, that will cover the entire universe, eventually restoring harmony.
These three steps, 'self-restraint, charity, and consciousnesses', or 'control, generosity, and attention', are inscribed on the Garuda pillar in Vidisha, Madhya Pradesh (central India), representing the story of Vishnu, the god of preservation, restoring harmony to the universe in the form of Vāmana, the 'dwarf god', associated with the planet Jupiter. Vishnu has said to have incarnated 9 times, each time as an avatar associated with one of the 9 grahas or planets of Indian astrology. When there is chaos, Vishnu returns harmony, uplifting the planets, bringing out their highest expressions. In 2021, Jupiter and Saturn enter Vishnu's star sign, Shravana, in sidereal Capricorn, a sign that is symbolised by these three footsteps; thus, the journey begins ... |
The Grand Conjunction December 21, 2020
2020 ends with a special astronomical event: the closest 'great conjunction' of Jupiter and Saturn in 397 years!
Saturn is almost completely obscured by Jupiter, almost an occultation. An occultation won't actually happen for thousands of years, although this one's pretty close. Jupiter and Saturn will seem as if they are dancing very close together indeed, the closest they've been since 1623.
What does a Jupiter occultation of Saturn signify? A whole lotta change, I figure!
Conjunctions are called 'planetary wars' in Indian astrology, as both planets vie for space. Saturn wins this time around, by most accounts - in it's own sign, during the Saturnine time of year, while Jupiter itself is weaken in Capricorn, although Jupiter is obscuring Saturn, ie, laws and 'truth' obscure reality. There is a fight for what is right and true, most likely expressed in debates about the best way to move forward, in all spheres of life.
Everytime Jupiter and Saturn come together, there is a reset in the world, in the socio-economic and political spheres, which have a knock-on effect on everything else. This is a turning point in human history, in our social-economic and political framework. And although this occurs every 20 years, just as it did in 2000, 1980, 1960 etc, this one is particularly impactful due to Jupiter and Saturn's proximity, and the fact that it is taking place on the Solstice.
As much as Saturn represents rules and structures, it represents a breaking of these, a rebelliousness.
I cannot help but think this winter is going to be a little wild, as people get a little stir crazy locked up, with laws (Jupiter) dictating what we can and cannot do (Saturn).
Perhaps the escape that is necessary at this time is an escape within, as it's said, 'the only way out is in'.

Predictions for a pivotal year
Pluto, Saturn & Jupiter in CapricornThe emphasis begins to shift from Sagittarius to Capricorn in early 2020, with Saturn’s ingress into sidereal Capricorn by the end of January; Pluto by the end of February; and Jupiter by the end of March.
Jupiter in Capricorn & The Story of GajendraOn Mar 30, 2020 Jupiter will enter sidereal Capricorn for the first of three occasions in 2020 and 2021. Jupiter’s transit through its sign of debilitation occurs during a conjunction with Pluto (Mar – Nov 2020) and Saturn (Dec 2020).
Although Jupiter is debilitated in Capricorn, because Saturn is also transiting Capricorn it cancels out Jupiter's debilitation, and therefore, some of its weakness, so that we end up experiencing both its weakness and strength. |
SUSTAINABLE CHANGE: SATURN IN CAPRICORNSaturn is the planet of time. It reflects a stoic view of life, an acceptance of our current place on the wheel of time, of our fate. When strong, as it is in Capricorn, we are more likely to deal with things that we may have (note: probably) previously put off in favour of thinking about our many options (see Sagittarius). Capricorn has a 'get on with it' kind of approach.
The Astrology of a virusWhat I had seen for 2020 was an attack. I just never thought it would be a virus!
On December 26, 2019 we experienced an annular solar eclipse at 9 degrees of sidereal Sagittarius. All the planets except for Venus and Mars were placed in the sign, with Venus on one side in Capricorn and Mars on the other side in Scorpio. |

I have had a keen interest in astrology (more like an obsession!) from an early age and continue to perfect my skills in Jyotish ('Vedic' or Indian astrology). I love that this wonderful art and science continues to offer its gems the more I explore.
I am a member of the British Association of Vedic Astrology and lecture at their annual conference. I authored a book titled Cosmic Bodies: The Ayurvedic Astrology Guide to Health & Well-Being and I am currently working on a book about timing techniques titled Timeline Astrology.
I like to study a birth chart for at least a week before I do a full chart reading which means a waiting period of some weeks depending on my schedule. Although I follow the traditional approach of an ancient practice that is steeped in secret knowledge, I offer easy-to-follow readings clients enjoy.
I have a scientific understanding of astrology and a keen intuition and insight into the challenges of life (typical Scorpio!). I pride myself in giving a comprehensive reading to everyone, leaving no room for doubt or even a follow-up consultation many times. Usually, a client is happy with just one reading and uses the audio recording for many years afterwards; unless they wish to work with me in a more practical way, either month-by-month by becoming a patron of my website and following the trends, or year-on-year with a yearly reading and update on upcoming trends.
While timelines offer a graphical representation of dates in your life on which important periods are highlighted, a reading helps you effectively plan your life, and thrive - even in challenging circumstances.
I literally give you a timeline of your life to take away with you, along with a video and audio recording of your birth chart.
