Rahu and Jupiter exact conjunction tomorrow!
Heads up! There could be some over-the-top intensity and chaos tomorrow (Friday), and over the next few days, as we experience a Rahu and Jupiter exact conjunction. Rahu, the powerful north node of the Moon, represents our dark shadow energy. Jupiter gives us our highest teachings, values, and principles. In mythology Rahu is the head of a demon and is obsessive and harsh by nature. Jupiter, the teacher of the gods, is expansive and optimistic.
Rahu and Jupiter have occupied the same sign (sidereal Leo) for a while now, but tomorrow is the day where they will be in exact conjunction. This means that they are in a straight line as measured from earth, and this combination could be explosive. Known as guru chandala yoga in sanskrit, this alignment can really amplify the confused and obsessive subconscious drives we experience due to Rahu’s influence.
With these two in Leo since January, we have seen people plying for power by brandishing radical, if irrational, beliefs. Because Rahu is the head of a demon with no body, he can never seem to consume enough, and doesn’t know when to stop. You may be feeling a bit like this right now. He brings out the part of us that seems to make the same mistakes over and over without understanding why. As he joins Jupiter, we might feel confused about our teachings and beliefs, yet driven to connect with them.
We’ll be feeling this compelling influence heavily on our emotional bodies as well. The Moon will be opposite from this Rahu-Jupiter conjunction tomorrow and this weekend, which could bring on anxiety. The Moon’s position relates with the mood of our hearts and minds. With Moon joining Ketu, we find it difficult to settle our emotions. We are probably feeling pretty vulnerable right now, and may be very self-critical.
We feel really passionate about our beliefs, but there is some disconnect happening. There is a sense of inner confusion in the current that is obscuring things and adding a deep level of frustration. There can be positive results too, depending on how these planets align with your chart, but still with an undertone of confusion to some degree.
The best course of action for today? I’m going with pray for peace. This will help us on both the collective and external levels and the individual and internal. You can chant “Lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu” (May all beings everywhere be happy and free), or “Om, Shanti, Shanti, Shanti” (Om, Peace, peace, peace), or both! This will help to bring some personal centering and positive vibration that will also emanate outwards to all beings.
Om, Peace, Peace, Peace
