Pan’s Return: Jupiter in Capricorn Webinar

Sunday, December 8

1 pm PST

Jupiter leaves its fiery home of Sagittarius to enter the dark forests of Capricorn on 2 December 2019, where it will remain until 19 December 2020. In this webinar we will explore the meaning of Jupiter’s transit through Capricorn in the year ahead in terms of personal lives and collective events. As there is a collective panic around the alignment of Saturn and Pluto in January 2020, we will draw meaning from Pan, the divine source of panic and a deity rooted in the living image of Capricorn. Pan was declared dead by some in the past as an oracular explanation for the rise of Christianity over paganism and magical traditions. Now Jupiter returns to Capricorn during an occult revival in which witchcraft, magic, and astrology have gained increased popularity. We will consider ways we can work effectively with Jupiter in Capricorn as well as its pitfalls we need to be aware of.

In a previous turning of the ages, Pan caused panic to aid the victory of the Olympians and formed the Capricorn constellation through fluidly escaping the onslaught of the Typhon. 2020 brings another turning of the ages and fears of other monstrosities we must face, as Jupiter comes to the end of its cycle with Saturn while being in the home of Saturn. Pan as well as other images of Capricorn will help guide us to discover the meaning of Jupiter being in its fall in Capricorn, as well as Jupiter forming three conjunctions with Pluto, a trine with Uranus, a sextile with Neptune, and a square with Mars retrograde in Aries during the year ahead.

Capricorn is also the South Node of Jupiter, and we will discuss the fact that Jupiter will be aligning with its South Node at the same time that Saturn and Pluto are conjoining their own South Nodes. In particular, we will discuss the Solar Eclipse on December 25 (or December 26 depending upon time zone) that will be conjoining the South Node of the Moon, Jupiter, as well as the South Node of Jupiter.

Planets in Fall arranged in the places of the Thema Mundi

I recently joined Chris Reppucci on his Liminal Light Podcast to discuss planets in fall and how we might think about them and where we might look to find stories that help us in better understanding their condition.

I gave a talk at the NORWAC astrology conference in May 2019 exploring the fall of Venus in Virgo and Mercury in Pisces through the telling of the Psyche and Eros story found in the Hellenistic novel The Golden Ass by Apuleius. Chris was inspired to read The Golden Ass after hearing my lecture and so we spend a good amount of time discussing the novel by Apuleius, as well as Psyche and Eros, mystery traditions, initiatory experiences, magical procedures, the underworld, the celebration of life, the Daimon, fate, and fortune.

I make a lot of references to the placement of planets in fall in the Thema Mundi, the legendary birth chart of the universe which is Cancer rising and has the domicile and exaltation schemes of essential dignity embedded in it. If you are unfamiliar with the concept you can reflect upon the image I have inserted at the top of this post when listening to our discussion, as it shows the planets in fall arranged in accordance with the Thema Mundi.

We didn’t make time to fully explore the Psyche and Eros story in relation to planets in fall during our talk, so if you are interested in hearing my approach to Psyche and Eros in my talk from NORWAC you can purchase it through my store page for $13. I will send you a MP3 recording as well as the slides.
