For about the next 18 months, Saturn will strongly influence the world financial markets and economy and material expansion/contraction. Entrepreneurs, business leaders, politicians, philanthropists, philosophers, scientists, reformers, and to some extent monks will shape the future of the world. Those who have Saturn in Capricorn (Saturn return) in their natal charts have already been experiencing their lives transformed to new settings due to a drastic change at material and psychological levels. In my opinion, despite a painful period of frustration due to unexpected changes in life, the next 18 months can be quite exciting for those who have dominant Saturn in their birth chart and have Pisces, Aries, Leo, and Scorpio as their natal ninefold (Navamansha) ascendant.
On a world political scene, countries like United States, Russia, Eastern European countries, Middle East, India, and Pakistan will make news headlines. The financial markets are likely to exhibit high volatility, especially up and down spikes in oil markets. Entrepreneurs, business leaders, politicians, philanthropists, philosophers, scientists, reformers will likely further transform the world with their successful creative and productive activities. Both Saturn and Neptune being in signs ruled by Saturn and in addition, the presence of Pluto in Capricorn means the scandals that have been hidden behind the scenes are very likely to come to the surface or be revealed, especially in Russia, China, and in particular, the President Donald Trump’s relationship with Putin and their secret activities during 2016-2020.
Jupiter’s entry in sidereal Aquarius on April 5, 2021 (Apr 5 – Sept 15) and then its brief return in Capricorn during Sept 15 – Nov 20, 2021
While in Capricorn (Jan 1 thru April 5 and then Sept 15 thru Nov 20), Jupiter in Capricorn has a tendency to enhance material prosperity of those who have well placed and well connected Saturn and Jupiter in their birth charts while others likely to experience their prosperity diminish.
In general, the transit of Jupiter in Capricorn is positive. For one thing, material prosperity around the world is likely to expand. (It must be noted that despite Jupiter’s positive influence on world material prosperity, the influence of other planets should be taken into consideration to assess the net effect for an individual natal chart). In addition, during this period the influence of contemporary philosophers on society will shape the future direction of our social evolution through philosophical and metaphysical debates. In general, the Capricorn Jupiter is known to be responsible for world economic expansion.
The transit of Jupiter in Aquarius is very important and positive for spiritual expansion. The emergence of new philosophy will shed the light on a new wave of livings and understanding of the world. Because Aquarius is the sign of universal love and collective progress, progressive ideas will likely dominate the world, especially after November 2021 and during 2022.
Since Jupiter will be in Capricorn along with Saturn and Pluto, the possibilities of a severe religious or moral crisis as well as the judiciary and financial crisis are very likely. Certainly, the way we have the religious and morality-based norms today will be challenged by the new forces of human evolution. The world financial markets will exhibit unprecedented volatility. The judiciary systems all around the world are likely to be challenged. The contemporary philosophers, reformers, industrialists, scientists, and all those who have the power to influence the world with their unique intelligence-based talents will enjoy this period to its fullest.
