How Jupiter in Gemini 2024-2025 Impacts You
Jupiter moves to Gemini, an air sign that rules the mind and communication. Abundant Jupiter means we're going to have a ton of new ideas, new plans to work on, new topics we're curious about, new subjects to learn, new information to share, and new ways to communicate. We can be extra expressive, open with what's on our minds, and more willing to talk things over.
Our mental skills, talents, and abilities can prove more beneficial than usual, and we can put this to good use. Any talents for writing, speaking, teaching, or learning can especially be prized. It can be helpful to improve these abilities as well, and we can see that it's more important. Gemini is an active air and mutable sign, one that can't really sit still, stand still, or ponder quietly. We are likely to be much more active, filling up our schedules, more social and engaging. We may pick up a course of study, share knowledge with others, organize parties, and enjoy meeting new people, both in person and online since Gemini is a tech ruler. Hopefully this is a good transit for kids in school (I know that's been a problem lately!). Gemini rules our communities, our neighbors, and young people, so this is a good period to focus on community projects, getting to know our neighbors and helping them out, mentoring kids, and doing what we can to foster a better sense of community and belonging where we are. Gemini is also a travel ruler, but short-distance travel, the travel that doesn't take long and we can get to by car, bus, bicycle, or walking. We might be doing more travel this way than we have before. Gemini is symbolized by the Twins and ruled by Mercury, who is dual in nature, so Jupiter in Gemini can mean we're more often focused on more than one thing. Everything may come in twos during this period. We're good at multitasking because of this, but we do have to make sure we don't push it too far, otherwise we may break apart. On a personal level, you can experience any or all of this in the areas of life ruled by the house(s) Jupiter in Gemini tours in your natal chart. How Jupiter in Gemini Differs From Jupiter in Taurus
Gemini is much more active than Taurus, who is the slowest of the Zodiac signs. Taurus wants to take its time, not feel rushed, and moves when it wants, not when others want. Gemini, on the other hand, really hates when things are slow (and isn't as stubborn as Taurus, so it can be more accommodating).
Jupiter in Taurus has been a time to get grounded, be present, and get in tune with the physical world. It's connected with Uranus in Taurus,so there has been a degree of major change as well. Jupiter in Gemini can continue some of that change, but makes us more open. Special Periods During Jupiter in Gemini
Mars is going to tour Gemini along with Jupiter July 20th to September 4th 2024, and they conjunct, or align, on August 14th at 16 degrees Gemini. Mars didn't tour Taurus while Jupiter was in Taurus, so this'll be their first meetup since May 2022 in Aries.
Mars is the planet of energy and drive, and when conjunct expansive Jupiter, this is considered a suuuper lucky transit! We're going to be extra expressive, have tons of information and news and knowledge flying around, and it's an important time for communication. Opportunities can be abundant to pursue our ideas and put plans into action. The only bad thing is, Mercury is retrograde when they conjunct! A body is called retrograde in astrology when it appears to be moving backward through the Zodiac, and this can throw the body off. Mercury is the natural ruler of Gemini, so this means the Mars-Jupiter conjunction isn't going to operate in the usual way that it would. And, on the very day they conjunct, Mercury retrograde goes from Virgo to Leo, so it's a highly charged period. This means we might be focusing on old ideas and plans we want to give another shot, review news or information we got before but didn't understand, or take time to re-learn or re-teach or rewrite something. We need to keep an open mind no matter what, and try to avoid letting anxiety take over. We may lash out loudly, but this doesn't help us. We need to be smart and willing to adapt. The conjunction occurs at 16 degrees Gemini, so there can be beneficial energy for you in the areas of life ruled by the house in your natal chart where 16 degrees Gemini falls. The Mercury retrograde at that point is at 0 degrees Virgo and 29 degrees Leo, so potential complications may arise with the areas of life ruled by the house in your natal chart that falls. No planets are retrograde in Gemini while Jupiter is in Gemini, but I do want to note that Mars will retrograde December 6th to February 23rd, and the last time Mars was retrograde was in 2022 in Gemini. Issues that may have come up during that retrograde could reach a final resolution that is beneficial and opens up new doors with Jupiter in Gemini, finally closing the books. I also want to note that Uranus begins to move to Gemini shortly after Jupiter exits Gemini, in July 2025, so about one month later. Use the transit of Jupiter in Gemini to set yourself up well for Uranus in Gemini, and this can lead to quick and great progress propelling you toward your dreams. Jupiter in Gemini Conjunct the Outer Planets in Your Natal Chart
No one alive now has Pluto or Neptune in Gemini, and only our super elders have Uranus in Gemini (Uranus will come back to Gemini in 2025-6). This means Jupiter in Gemini aligns with your Uranus, the planet of rebellion, independence, innovation, and the masses, and our super elders can be more in tune with this.
There can be a big change in your life, and you may do something outside of your comfort zone that has a big impact, especially impacting communication, news, information, learning, teaching, writing, speaking, travel, or in your community. Final Notes on Jupiter in Gemini
Jupiter in Gemini can speed things up, and this can be welcome after a year of a slower Jupiter. Being at a beneficial angle to Pluto, freshly in Aquarius and setting us on a whole new life cycle, is really helpful and our ideas for transformation can flow in abundance, and we can get excited about it.

What does this mean for us? P.S. Make sure to sign up for the free monthly worksheet so you can keep track of planetary events like new and full moons every month! What is a New Moon?
A New Moon occurs when the transit (moving) Sun and Moon are in the exact same position in the Zodiac (called a conjunction). New Moons are related to beginnings, have high energy, and are enthusiastic.
What is a Full Moon?
A Full Moon occurs when the transit (moving) Sun and Moon are in the exact opposite positions in the Zodiac (called an opposition). Full Moons are related to endings, culminations, and are emotional energy.
New Moon in Taurus: May 7th 2024 (11:22PM ET/8:22PM PT)
The Taurus New Moon is often a time to relax, indulge, and take it easy. We're coming out of a high energy, intense, passionate period with the previous Moons, and this is time to pull back. We can take a break, chill out, and don't want to fill up every moment of our lives with something to do. It's a great time to be more present and reconnect with the here and now.
Taurus is a money ruler, so we can focus on opportunities to improve our financial situations and plan for the future. We can maximize resources we have, and get our hands on new resources. This can help improve stability and security in our lives, and as we improve stability and security, we can get more opportunities for money and resources. They feed into each other. When we take action with something, we can be slow and steady. We're not in a rush, and feel like everything will work out if we're focused and methodical. This might seem like we're not making any progress initially, but over time, it can prove to be pretty smart and put us on the right path. Our confidence can be high with the Taurus New Moon if we feel secure and take it easy. If we don't, we may become stubborn about something, and insecurity can lead to lashing out erratically. The New Moon is sextile (beneficial aspect, two signs away) transit (moving) Saturn in Pisces, and this brings disciplined energy to the New Moon, so while we may not have tons of energy and drive for taking the initiative and working hard, when we do take action, we can do so in a smart, disciplined, productive way. Every moment we put into work can be maximized, and we can feel focused when we get to it. The New Moon occurs at 18 degrees 2 minutes Taurus. The aspects to the New Moon are: Conjunction: 16 degrees 2 minutes - 20 degrees 2 minutes Taurus Sextile: 16 degrees 2 minutes - 20 degrees 2 minutes Cancer or Pisces Square: 16 degrees 2 minutes - 20 degrees 2 minutes Leo or Aquarius Trine: 16 degrees 2 minutes - 20 degrees 2 minutes Virgo or Capricorn Opposition: 16 degrees 2 minutes - 20 degrees 2 minutes Scorpio Full Moon in Sagittarius: May 23rd 2024 (9:53AM ET/6:53AM PT)
The Sagittarius Full Moon is a more optimistic Full Moon since Sagittarius is the happy sign. Full Moons tend to be emotional, but Sagittarius Full Moons don't want to dwell on that. So, we can be more positive with this Full Moon, and don't want to deal with anything too serious. We dealt with that last month, we want a break from it in May.
Sagittarius rules our beliefs, so we can be more passionate about what we believe in and stand up for ourselves and others. This can lead to fights if we don't keep an open mind though, and need to make sure we're listening properly. If we are, this can improve communications and we can feel more understood. Sagittarius is ruler of higher learning, so we can finish a course of study, and can be more passionate about learning, teaching, writing, and speaking. Sagittarius rules long-distance travel, so we can be on the move more, and may see more people traveling (especially by flight). Sagittarius is also ruler of the law, so we can see some important legal news with this Full Moon. The Full Moon is sextile transit Pluto in Aquarius, and this helps us control our passionate energy and maintain optimism. We can transform something for the better, and this can be something that excites us rather than something we're afraid to do. We can work on making strides with our dreams, especially if we get sidetracked in April. One odd note about this Full Moon: At the time it occurs, Venus and Jupiter will be anaretic in Taurus (and conjunct) and Neptune will be anaretic in Pisces. There are 30 degrees in every Zodiac sign and 29 degrees is the very last degree. This is called the anaretic degree, and is supercharged energy that can be a challenge with the transit planets like this. Venus conjunct Jupiter tends to be a happy aspect, but there can be some major developments regarding something financial or with resources in Taurus (might tie into the Taurus New Moon as well). Venus quickly moves to Gemini after the Full Moon occurs, so we're quick to focus on ideas, news, and plans with whatever passes. The Full Moon might make us more heated when we're debating, so we have to keep in mind proper communication. Especially with Neptune bringing the fog and trying to obscure! The Full Moon occurs at 2 degrees 55 minutes Sagittarius. Aspects to the Full Moon are: Conjunction: 0 degrees 55 minutes - 4 degrees 55 minutes Sagittarius Sextile: 0 degrees 55 minutes - 4 degrees 55 minutes Libra or Aquarius Square: 0 degrees 55 minutes - 4 degrees 55 minutes Virgo or Pisces Trine: 0 degrees 55 minutes - 4 degrees 55 minutes Aries or Leo Opposition: 0 degrees 55 minutes - 4 degrees 55 minutes Gemini Suggested Reading: The New & Full Moons page for general interpretations by house and aspect Transit (moving) Neptune is nearing the end of its time in Pisces, and will eventually move into Aries. Most of the time Neptune has left in Pisces, it'll be anaretic. What does this mean? Don't forget to sign up for the free monthly worksheet so you can keep track of the planets like Neptune every month! What is Neptune in astrology?
Neptune rules spirituality, intuition, compassion, the arts, hidden things, and illusion in astrology. In the natal chart, natal Neptune can show where you have compassion and empathy, are creative, can find spirituality and be intuitive, and where you need to work on being more realistic.
In transit, Neptune's base energy is to dissolve, and it's notoriously foggy when it's challenged. This means we don't see everything that's right in front of us, so we can think everything's fine when it's not. When transit Neptune is behaving well, this can be a time of super intuition and creativity; when it's not, we're kind of delusional! This normally happens with transit Neptune conjunct, square, or opposite a natal planet, especially the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, or Ceres. What is the anaretic degree in astrology?
There are 30 degrees in every Zodiac sign, 360 degrees total (30 x 12). 29 degrees is the last degree of each Zodiac sign, and is called the anaretic degree as it has very high energy.
In the natal chart, the bodies at the anaretic degree have super heightened energy, and this is usually overwhelming and scary so we avoid it (though some go in the opposite direction and play it up too much, to their detriment). In transit, the anaretic degree is crisis energy. It's an *almost always* situation of triggering something really big and important with slow planets like Neptune. Anaretic Neptune in Pisces Dates:
Anaretic Neptune in Pisces Impact:
Neptune is super delusional at the anaretic degree, not gonna lie! Hard Neptune amplifies the foggy energy times a million, and that is extra strong when anaretic, and in Pisces, the sign Neptune naturally rules anyway.
We may think we're seeing things clearly, but we're really deluding ourselves. We may think nothing is clouding our judgment, but that's not true. We may convince ourselves that the past isn't coming back to bite us, while it's biting us! Neptune and Pisces rule karma, the past, and ways we are our own worst enemy, so we may see lots of karma coming home to roost, past issues blowing up in our faces (but we try to act like it's not), and many people may lead to their own undoing. But the crazy part is, we likely won't have one clue about this until this transit is over! That's the nature of the Neptunian fog. It can be right in front of our faces, and it might be obvious to everyone but ourselves, and once we become aware of it, we're kicking ourselves for being so clueless. One thing that makes me wonder if we'll be maybe slightly less delusional is Saturn also in Pisces. Saturn is the planet of reality, the one who wants us to see what's really there. Saturn could try to limit some of the delusion. But, Saturn could also be showing extra punishment for the delusion, so we're still delusional, but we're also being punished for that to the max. Another challenge with hard Neptune like this is, we tend to sway too far in one direction or the other when it comes to empathy and compassion. We can be TOO empathetic and compassionate, and end up being walked all over. This leaves us vulnerable to become victims to those who have bad ulterior motives. We need to remember healthy boundaries are important, and not having them is bad for everyone. Or, we may end up going the other way, and lack empathy completely. Unfortunately, we often see mass atrocities in the world under hard Neptune because of this. We may not be world leaders (or maybe you are, hey what the heck are you doing???), but we can still work to make sure we're exercising compassion with those in our lives and who we encounter. Instead of automatically thinking the worst of someone, lend a hand (with healthy boundaries!). It's important to work on a few things during this period. One is to tether yourself to reality. Work on grounding yourself a loooot more during this period. Walk in nature, stimulate your root chakra. Constantly check in to make sure you're being realistic about things. In what ways are you reading too much into it? Could anything from the past be coloring your view? Second, work on your connection to your intuition. Even if you're making sure you're grounded in reality, it's still likely there will be situations where you don't have all of the facts and information you need. This is where good intuition can be of assistance. What blocks to your intuition do you need to work on? How can you work to strengthen your intuition? Third, and this might be the most important - work on your baggage! Spiritual, emotional, early life, past life. This is actually an incredible period for digging into your subconscious mind, reflecting and being introspective, releasing baggage that weighs you down, and getting a better understanding of your subconscious motivations and desires. Take up journaling, join a support group, try art therapy, etc. Don't be afraid of facing this baggage. This is a huge period for everyone to do so, and that is a blessed opportunity, NOT a dreadful punishment. This will be especially important for anyone who has a natal planet, angle, or other body at the anaretic degree. It doesn't matter the Zodiac sign; I find with the anaretic degree, the aspect doesn't matter, just being at that degree, it'll be lit up. If that's you, give focus on grounding, strengthening intuition, and releasing baggage with whatever the point rules. For everyone, look to the house in your natal chart 29 degrees Pisces falls. The areas of life ruled by that house can be where massive releasing has to occur, where you need to get deep within your subconscious and spiritual self, and where you must gain understanding. Get out of your own way, and work it out. This is likely going to be strongest during three periods, and the first is when Neptune turns retrograde on July 2nd 2024 at 29 degrees Pisces, so at the anaretic degree. Retrograde bodies appear to move backward through the Zodiac, and this can throw them off. When retrogrades start or end at the anaretic degree, everything *really* goes wonky! I think the fog will be especially strong around this time, and we have to be extra focused on being realistic. The second period is with the Pisces Lunar Eclipse on September 17th 2024. Neptune won't be anaretic by then, but the eclipse is conjunct (aligned with) Neptune, so there is likely going to be a lingering effect, and that eclipse in particular is likely going to be absolutely massive for releasing, karma, and divine plans, so we really need to be on top of it then. I think punishment for delusion can also be strong around this time, and we might suddenly become aware of something that is exposed and brought into the light, and it shocks the system. The third period is March 27th - 30th 2025, when Venus is retrograde and goes to Pisces on March 27th, so it's anaretic, and Mercury is also retrograde and goes back to Pisces March 29th and is anaretic, and Neptune is going to Aries on March 30th, so Venus retrograde, Mercury retrograde, and Neptune are conjunct at the anaretic degree. Can anyone say YOWZA!!!! Holy guacamole, that is going to be huge! We're probably going to see something really important play out in the world, and I worry the lack of empathy might be extra strong. Hopefully we can stay compassionate through it, and don't let cruelty take over. Another thing about Neptune is it rules drugs (legal and not), toxicity, so we may be seeing more focus on this, and perhaps some issue with a specific drug or medication. Neptune also rules water, so we can see water problems (issues with treatment facilities, droughts, and also floods, tsunamis, etc.). One good thing that could come from this transit is we can all experience a major awakening, whether spiritual, intuitive, or karmic. Be open to subtle energies, pay attention to dreams. Signs might be everywhere, but we have to make sure we're both seeing them and interpreting them correctly (not just in the way we wish they were). Aye, we're in for a wild ride! Especially with Pluto also anaretic from some of this, and Uranus on the move to Gemini soon and also anaretic. These are some wild times we're living in. It got started with the Capricorn stellium in 2020 and it's not done with us yet!

Amor is an asteroid in astrology, and there are tens of thousands of asteroids, and each connects to something different. Many are simply names, but some like Amor connect to specific energies.
In the case of asteroid Amor, this is the asteroid of romantic love. Amor shows how we express love and romance, and in transit, we can see this via the Zodiac sign Amor is touring, and the natal house it's touring in your natal chart. Asteroid Amor in Taurus 2024
With Amor in Aries, love has been more fun, free, and full of activity. Amor did retrograde for a bit in Aries as well, so that brought out some aggression and frustration. Amor doesn't retrograde in Taurus, and Taurus is more grounded, secure, and stable, so we're in better control of our romantic selves.
Amor in Taurus helps to ground and stabilize love and romance, and we can take our time with romance, not wanting to rush into anything until we're certain that it's what we want. Once we get into it, we can stick with it, and can be more loyal to those we love. We can also show love in more physical ways since Taurus is an earth sign, and we can be more sensual and want to connect physically, but we can also give more gifts to those we're interested in and love (and to ourselves!). Romance can be strong in the dinner category, and we may want to eat something rich and decadent more often. Amor tours Zodiac sign Taurus from April 21st to July 9th 2024. Conjunctions for Amor in Taurus:
Amor in Taurus will conjunct (align with) Uranus in Taurus on June 26th 2024. Amor conjunct Uranus brings out more sudden, unexpected, and unconventional energy with love and romance, and we might experience some sudden developments romantically or some unexpected changes in romance. We may try to fight this with the Taurus energy, but it's better to be flexible and go with it.
Amor in Taurus conjuncts Venus on May 2nd, and Venus is the natural ruler of Taurus (though Ceres is also to be ruler). This amplifies the impact, and we're extra romantic, sensual, and want to connect physically. This would be a great time for fancy dinners, spa days, and massages. Amor in Taurus conjuncts Mercury on May 24th. Mercury is the sign of the mind and communication, so this can help us express love and romance, and we can be quick with words of love, and we can really mean it.

Cupido in Aries speeds up Cupido and makes it loud and proud. Cupido in Pisces is quiet and keeps to the background with its passions and infatuations, not wanting any attention for it and feeling a bit shy. Aries, on the other hand, is fiery and enthusiastic, so Cupido's passionate side can be strong. We can take the initiative with what we're passionate about, and can take the lead with crushes.
Enthusiasm and excitement can get channeled into whatever we do, and we can make quick work. We may not stick with it too long though since Aries gets bored quickly, so crushes may be short-lived. Whatever we're passionate about, we can throw ourselves into initially, and we can hit the ground running. We can have a big head start, so even if we don't stick with it for very long, we can still make progress at the onset. BUT we do have to keep in mind at the start that Mercury is retrograde (appearing to move backward) in Aries until April 25th, and even though it doesn't align with Cupido, this can still influence it a little bit, and we may want to reconnect with old crushes, especially ones from our youth. Transit Cupido in Aries conjuncts (align with) transit Chiron on May 24th 2024 at 21 degrees Aries, and this is the strongest aspect for Cupido in Aries. Chiron is the wounded healer and rules our greatest wounds and healing abilities. Cupido conjunct can bring out old wounds involving past crushes, past infatuations, or past passions, and we can work to heal from it now. We can be more vulnerable with anything we're passionate about at the time of the conjunction, and need to make sure we're being considerate of ourselves and others, otherwise new wounds can occur. On the plus side, we can be extra passionate about healing and helping, and this can be a good time for that. Asteroid Cupido in Aries for the Zodiac Signs:

Wherever Aquarius is present in your natal chart, this is an area where you're different and innovative. If you have any natal planets in Aquarius, you can feel the Aquarius energy strongly personally with whatever that planet rules.
Aquarius is an air sign, along with Gemini and Libra, and the air signs are intellectual and sociable. Aquarius is also a fixed sign, along with Taurus, Leo, and Scorpio, and the fixed signs are stable. Aquarius connects with the 11th house of dreams and friends, and is ruled by changemaker Uranus. At-a-Glance Aquarius Keywords:
Aquarius in Astrology: Unconventional
Aquarius is the most unconventional Zodiac sign, mostly thanks to being ruled by Uranus, the planet of change and what's different. Aquarius is totally okay with stepping outside of comfort zones, and can push for things to be different. Aquarius understands why this is important, and feels this helps stay true to itself.
Aquarius in Astrology: Independent
Aquarius is a highly independent sign, one of the most independent (along with Aries and Sagittarius). Aquarius wants to do things in its own time and in its own way, and trying to box in Aquarius is quite the challenge. This can make Aquarius rebellious at times, and it can push buttons.
Aquarius in Astrology: Inventive
Aquarius is an inventive Zodiac sign, partly because it's so open to change, so unconventional, and so willing to carve its own path. Aquarius is open to experimentation, and has quite the intellect, so this assists in its innovative mind. Aquarius is one of the science rules (along with Scorpio).
Aquarius in Astrology: Future-focused
Aquarius rules the future, and is constantly focused on the future. This isn't just standard long-term; Aquarius can look forward many generations, hundreds and thousands of years into the future, and decades into its own life. This helps make Aquarius a humanitarian since it sees how it can impact the world at large, and this sign governs charity.
Aquarius in Astrology: Friendly
Aquarius is a sociable air sign, and is the ruler of friends and social circles, so Aquarius is comfortable with lots of different people of various backgrounds. Aquarius can interact well with others in many ways, both in person and online. Aquarius likes having a variety of friends and acquaintances.
Aquarius in Astrology: Dreams
Aquarius rules dreams for the future, and because it's so future-focused, it can set big dreams. Aquarius understands that those dreams don't have to happen tomorrow, and it can work on them for many years and decades to come.
Aquarius in Astrology: Hope
Aquarius is the sign of hope, and since this sign can look so far into the future and dreams of what it wants, it can be quite hopeful. Aquarius can be at its best when it has hope, and is instilling hope in others.
Aquarius in Astrology: Cold
When not manifesting well, Aquarius can be the coldest of the Zodiac signs. Aquarius can live in its head and in the future, and while it loves lots of friends, they can be superficial connections. Aquarius has to learn to form strong emotional connections, and can be quite loyal once it does thanks to being a fixed sign.
Where Your Aquarius Energy is Found
If you have any natal planets in Aquarius, the way those planets express themselves is via Aquarius, so they are unconventional, inventive, and hopeful. The more Aquarius planets you have, the more Aquarius-like you can be.
Even if you have no natal planets in Aquarius, you will have at least one natal house with Aquarius. The house that falls in Aquarius (has Aquarius on the house cusp) can show areas of life where you take an unconventional, hopeful approach. If you have no Aquarius house cusps, Aquarius is intercepted (contained) in the house that falls in Capricorn, and your Aquarius energy can manifest subconsciously with whatever that house rules. Transit Planets in Aquarius
When the transit (moving) planets are in Aquarius, this can give all of us some Aquarius energy to play with. The transit Sun is in Aquarius roughly every year from mid January to mid February, and this is Aquarius Season, which brings greater emphasis on change and independence for us all.
Transit Mercury in Aquarius helps us to think outside the box and bounce ideas off of groups; transit Venus in Aquarius can help us connect with friends and make changes in love; transit Mars in Aquarius can make us more independent and willing to make changes; transit Ceres in Aquarius can help us take an unconventional approach with resources and make changes with them; and transit Jupiter in Aquarius brings opportunities to change, be different, and push norms. Transit Saturn in Aquarius brings out issues we have with Aquarius, so usually issues around independence, our dreams, and change. Any issues around that, we can struggle with, and Saturn can prompt us to work it out. Saturn was just in Aquarius 2020-2023 (and won't be again until 2050). Transit Uranus won't be in Aquarius until 2079 (and was last in Aquarius 1995-2003), but we'll experience many changes in general since Uranus rules Aquarius. Transit Neptune won't be in Aquarius until 2161 (and was last in Aquarius 1998-2012), but at that point, we'll experiment spiritually. Transit Chiron moves to Aquarius in 2055 (and was last in Aquarius 2005-2010), and we can tackle issues of independence and individuality. Transit Pluto is moving to Aquarius now, and this will demand we transform our dreams, the future, and make changes that transform.

When multiple planets are in Aquarius in your natal chart, this can give you strong Aquarius energy in your life and personality. You can be unconventional, independent, and eccentric. This can be the case if you have an Aquarius stellium (3+ planets in one Zodiac sign), or if you have 2 of your primary triad (Sun, Moon, Rising) in Aquarius.
You can also feel that you have strong Aquarius energy if your natal Uranus is strong, which is the planet that rules Aquarius. This can be the case if your natal Uranus is conjunct your natal Sun, Moon or Ascendant, or your 1st house ruler, or if your natal Uranus is a singleton (only planet in an element, modality, or house type). When multiple transit planets are in Aquarius, this gives all of us a strong dose of Aquarius energy all at once. We can make changes and embrace the unconventional. How we end up feeling this personally is usually focused on the house in your natal chart the Aquarius energy occurs in. Suggested Reading: The Aquarius Sun sign page |
