SATURN SQUARE NATAL SATURN

Saturn, by definition, often speaks of challenging conditions, tasks at hand, lessons to learn, discipline, creating organization and building a strong foundation. 

As Saturn transits through the houses, especially when it connects with the planets or the cusp of each house, it is often felt as an integrating energy that asks us to pay attention and often requires additional work.  Saturn’s influence is not something that should be ignored and is felt especially when it conjuncts a planet or angle in our birth chart.

Saturn, at its most powerful, often interacts when it is 2° past being direct because of its delayed effects.  However, you will likely feel Saturn’s approach long before it reaches this critical degree of influence.  Therefore, we can prepare for its influence, but it is highly suggested that you not anticipate its action as negativity can result. 

Saturn is the teacher of the Zodiac, and this is what it will do.  Its action sparks our attention and when transiting Saturn is in square to itself in the birth chart (which is what we are focused on in this article) our attentiveness will be enhanced.

Saturn asks us to work hard towards our objectives and not to miss any steps along the way.  It will teach us patience and diligence. If we do the work that is required, its energies can help build solid foundations that stand the test of time.  The structures that can be built can withstand almost any interaction because they are built from structure and lessons that are likely difficult and do not need repeating.

Much will depend on the houses involved in the equation.  The house where Saturn transits often produce tension or lessons and the house where Saturn natally resides helps in assisting with the dilemma.  Squares indicate struggle, but the difficulty is irritating enough that it forces us into action to formulate a plan to alleviate the irritation. Natal Saturn and its natal positioning in the birth chart will provide you with more information and information on potential difficulty or greater ease for transition due to its aspects.

Saturn Square Natal Saturn

When transiting Saturn squares natal Saturn, there will be a teaching/learning phase.  You will work your way through what Saturn’s energies are pushing at you and become more equipped to handle situations in the future.  Difficulties are represented by Saturn, but Saturn also builds resilience and integrates strength.  Many may not even realize they have this strength until Saturn forces the lesson on them.  Saturn truly is the teacher.

JUPITER SQUARE NATAL JUPITER

Transiting Jupiter takes roughly one year to go through each Zodiac sign.  To go through all astrological signs it therefore takes approximately 12 years. 

Jupiter will make a Square (90° aspect) to its natal position approximately three years after it conjuncts (same degree and the same sign) its natal position and approximately three years after (six years total from conjunction) it makes its opposition (180° aspect) to its natal position.

The house position of Jupiter’s natal position in the astrological chart along with its house placement while in transit will be areas of interaction with the Square aspect.  The Natal potential (Jupiter’s natal chart configuration) will also define how these energies might develop as they get close to being direct (exactly 90° apart).

Jupiter Square natal Jupiter

Jupiter, known as the greater benefic, stands alone with its positive influence as it moves through the Zodiac.  No other planet by challenging aspect will have such a positive influence as will Jupiter.  The only planet that Jupiter has any challenge with is Saturn even though its influence can still prove to be beneficial over time. 

Jupiter is known to bring good luck, easy flow, fortunate conditions, expansion and growth as it makes its way through the Zodiac influencing links within each of our planetary positions and angles in our natal charts.

Squares always indicate some delays, struggles, and hurdles to overcome. In most cases, we must work very hard at overcoming the energies in place through their influence.  However, squares are considered very irritating, (using a soft word to express their influence), and will ask us to see what we can do to alleviate these conditions or at the very least make them somewhat manageable. 

When Jupiter Squares itself, and depending on the overall condition of our natal Jupiter and perhaps the other influences of other transits to this position, we can still expect growth perhaps through learning or through outer experiences that teach lessons. It may be a bit harder than we might wish it would be but with effort, we reap the benefits.  Perhaps we may lose something to gain something more especially if Pluto is involved.  Perhaps we gain insight through unexpected conditions or rather quick, sudden interactions, but awaken some part of our lives especially if Uranus is involved. 

The experience may be a little tough and we might have to put forth effort and learn lessons along the way, but the potential is still there for growth on some level. 

Jupiter will likely open doors over time, but it may take a few months for things to clear, and after this lapse of time we begin to understand the why behind what took place.  We will realize that whatever transpired had to take place for what we now understand or are experiencing would not have transpired if things had stayed the same. 

Jupiter square natal Jupiter suggests that we wrap our arms around these learning experiences and know that the universe is teaching us valuable lessons that will assist in our overall development.

ASPECTS FOR SUN IN GEMINI 2025

We are going to take a quick look at a couple of aspects that will affect Sun in Gemini this year. See our post on Sun in Geminin posted May 15 at https://www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-gemini-5

Aspects for Sun in Gemini 2025

Those Geminians with their Sun in the early degrees of Gemini will have several major aspects with the outer planets, some of which are already in place and others are to come. 

On July 7, 2025, Uranus, although temporarily, will move into Gemini.  It stays in Gemini until November 8, 2025, then it returns to Taurus.  Uranus then again goes into Gemini April 26, 2026, and from that day forward for about 7 years remains in Gemini before it moves into the next sign, Cancer.

Transiting Uranus seeks change and sometimes in a rather dynamic fashion.  It is known as the awakener and does just that.  It clearly shows what needs revamping, what needs a new direction and what is required, often because what was in place no longer suits our evolutionary quest and our essential direction in life.

Uranus is quite unpredictable, and its action can be sudden and unexpected.  Quite often we get little hints that change is needed prior to its eventual demanding push, and we can make these moves if we so desire on our own. However, these changes will happen as they are not a request, they are a necessity. Change is required and these changes take place with or without our conscious consent as they are necessary for our continued growth.

When in aspect to the Sun, and especially by conjunction (the most powerful aspect of all the five major aspects), our goals in life and life’s direction are part of the unfolding.  On a deeper level even our essences is subject to concentrated focus and evaluation and some change is often a requirement.  Much of what transpires will depend on the placement of transiting Uranus, the natal Sun and Natal Uranus by house placement and aspect configuration within natal chart.

Transiting Pluto is already making a Trine to those Geminians with their Sun in the early degrees of Gemini.  Transiting Pluto currently (May 2025) is in retrograde at 3° in Aquarius.  As mentioned, Uranus speaks of change of direction and now Pluto speaks of disruption to the flow of things because a full change of direction is required.  There are no half measures about the actions of Pluto.  Pluto can be dynamic although often begins in a rather subtle manner opening doors that are now needing to be open.  Although both Uranus and Pluto speak of the need for change, Pluto being in Trine suggests that the shift of direction is likely very absolute and very productive and favorable. 

If, for example, Pluto was either moving into the seventh house or already in the seventh house then the potential for a change in relationships of significance, usually the partner and is subject to moving in a different direction.  The relationship will undergo a transformation and regeneration if that is a requirement and then move forward in the direction that is most suitable for the individuals concerned. 

The likelihood of the Sun, in this example, being in the third or fourth house is quite possible so not only will it affect the life path and inner regeneration, it will also have something to do with the home and family and communication techniques.  If in the third for example, then communication is highlighted especially in everyday affairs.  If in the fourth house, the home front and family or perhaps one of the parents being part of the conditions unfolding is likely. 

There are other aspects in force for Sun in Gemini but this post will only touch on these influences. 

Happy solar return Sun in Gemini! These aspects for Sun in Gemini 2025 are suggesting change and the transition period for these changes can be much easier if you work with the energies and not fight them.
