Jupiter Opposite Neptune 2015-09-17 (Kites and a Yod)

First, we present links to alternative perspectives on this event:

• Alan Oken on the events occurring in Sun in Virgo 2015
• Analysis of Mercury in Libra, including retrograde, by Tara Greene
• Julie Demboski on Jupiter opposite Neptune
• Viva Combusta! (Clarissa) on Jupiter Opposite Neptune

Next, we note that this occurs a few days after a Solar Eclipse, on the day of a Mercury Retrograde Station, as Juno enters Libra, and near a Quintile Kite.  (See, also: September 17th 2015 and list of Quintile Kites for 2015.)

And, this happens in the early morning hours for the Western Hemisphere, so early that the perfection almost occurs on September 16th.

We note that two overlapping Kites occur with this powerful outer planet aspect (see, also: Long Term Forecasts for links to lists of Outer Planet Aspects).

We present that version of the chart:

One important message is that the perfection of Mercury Opposite Uranus, which occurs after the Mercury Retrograde period, will be particularly important in developing the ideas and opportunities developed at this time.  Pallas (innovation, particularly military innovation) and Venus (love, beauty, and money) are also involved in this kite and strongly color the flavor of the opportunity.

Another Kite, weaker, involves the Nodes (Karma), Saturn (hard work, “the basics,” tests, trials, and tribulations) and Astraea (law and the legal system).  It all sounds messy and difficult as far as opportunities go unless you are a lawyer or function in some similar capacity.

A yod is also present, and we filter the chart to illustrate that pattern:

Sadly, the choice is not a very pleasant one.  It is between Jupiter, normally a beneficial planet but now in “detriment” (according to the traditionalists) in Virgo and the Moon, also typically beneficial, but in the sign of Scorpio, or “fall” (according to traditionalists).  For many people, this is a tough choice: a restricted form of growth that requires hard work or powerful but subtle power struggles.  You will go down one path or the other, but you do have the opportunity to choose which one if you wish (instead of having the choice made for you).

While we do see some difficulties associated with this aspect, what we are really being told is that some amazing opportunities are present, but to keep from being cheated or fooled we must stay grounded and proceed carefully, checking (and sometimes double and triple checking) each fine detail, overlooking nothing.  Chances are good you WILL overlook something, and you will find those omissions and errors during the upcoming Mercury Retrograde period.  AFTER that period is over, you will receive powerful insights with the perfection of Mercury opposite Uranus and will be able to move forward in ways that test the limits of your imagination.

If you are reading this page in hindsight (after the perfection), you may also want to read about Mars opposite Neptune on October 6th of this year, which occurs a few days before the Mercury Direct Station.
