Jupiter-Saturn Quincunx

(Transit Jupiter → Natal Saturn)

Avelom Podvodny. Aspects

Jupiter quincunx: The existence of God awakens in me a sense of inferiority. This aspect promises in the spheres of the Planet an extraordinary expansion of possibilities connected with access to the cosmic egregore, provided the person can rise to the corresponding vibrational level and master its ethics, which may at times unexpectedly differ from familiar earthly standards. For example, the Jupiter-Uranus quincunx may enable a theoretical physicist to receive information from very high cosmic planes, but it will remain uncorrupted only if properly directed spiritually; if not, brilliant ideas will frequently come to him, promising a great discovery just around the corner, yet repeatedly proving deceptive in the end: the initial distortion of an otherwise correct idea stems from insufficient attention to cosmic ethics, for which the ordinary earthly desire for abstract knowledge is entirely concentrated on a relatively low mental plane. At a low level, the individual will repeatedly grasp at cosmic aspects within the Planet’s spheres, but these interests and activities will prove sporadic and superficial, although the person themselves will likely hold the opposite view, and at the very least, deep earthly limitations in these matters within their immediate environment—and humanity in general—will be evident. Saturn quincunx: A person who lacks inner freedom has no moral right to demand civil liberties. This aspect gives the individual dissatisfaction with ordinary earthly means of deepening within the Planet’s spheres, no matter how profoundly they may penetrate them, and the same applies to working with its principle in the inner world: here, the person needs to hear the cosmic resonance and perceive the unearthly depth, to which they feel they have an aptitude. At a low level, the person is naturally unaware of all this, and their Saturn quincunx manifests as minor annoyances and limitations in the Planet’s spheres, related to their orientation toward ordinary earthly methods of addressing corresponding issues and inability to view them from a cosmic perspective, and although subconsciously it will be quite difficult for them. Generally, this aspect brings dissatisfaction with earthly wisdom and a desire to attain cosmic wisdom; sometimes the person may feel they are beginning to perceive it, but initially with strong typical distortions, since cosmic laws can be grasped only through conscious and subconscious departure from geocentric positions and the majority of social views, which hold people very firmly, especially in serious matters. Therefore, here probable poorly conscious oscillations occur—from cosmic orientations, which are attractive to the subconscious yet suspicious, to earthly and established ones, which are reliable but unsatisfying; as a result, the issue becomes repressed, leaving a general vague feeling of dissatisfaction, or, especially if the quincunx is afflicted, stress develops. The inner work here is difficult, but yields cosmic wisdom, insight into karma, and the ability to harmoniously weave cosmic karma into earthly life.
