Astrological Significance of Winter Solstice 2020

 Here is the video I did yesterday on this Winter Solstice. I apologize for not having the best sound on this first attempt at doing a FB live / zoom event. But I will be a whole lot better at it next time. 

There is lots of info here and if you have comments or questions, please ask them below and I will make sure you get the answers. 

In case you are new to me, I am Michele Avanti. I have been a professional astrologer for thirty years and am an ISAR certified astrology professional. I have taught astrology for many years and even the math for NCGR back in the nineties when that was required for astrologers to be certified. 

Blessings to you... let us look to the year ahead and the great changes that this chart opens.

Jupiter Saturn Conjunction - Winter Solstice 2020

At sunset this evening, if you have clear skies, look to the Southwest and you will see Jupiter (the brightest) and Saturn in the sky as they are coming into the tightest conjuntion closest to the earth in 794 years. We call this the Great Conjuntion because not only are they aligned in the zodiac contellation but they are aligned in latitude (declination) this will make them appear as one on the evening of the Winter Solstice, Monday Dec 21st.

This conjunction is at 0 degrees Aquarius and one might say it hails the doorway to new levels of cooperation, freedom, revolution, invention and thought.

I will be speaking about the significance of this and the Solstice Chart this Saturday at 3pm on FB Live. Hope you will join me. https://fb.me/e/24naPcfOt

Pluto Stations - major difficulties for Trump while in Hospital

Today Pluto will station direct at 9:33 am ET / 6:33 am PT at 22 Capricorn 29. It is a transformative event for our world, and a very hard hit for President Trump. The activation in his chart is beyond difficult. Though we see him by his actions, so many misleading and false, we need to remember what this soul's purpose has been. He has been the catalyst for change in this nation. He has forced us to look at what we hold most dear, and to stand up for our beliefs and to rethink what it means to be an American.

Here is his chart for this transformative moment. It involves severe physical stress, disease, possible stroke, blood clots or heart attack.

If you are studying astrology here are some of the significant aspects. In parenthesis you will find the meaning of each planet as it is deposited in his chart.

Saturn (health, marriage & partners) is in opposition (struggle to maintain balance) to Saturn. He has been under this aspect for a while. The last time he had this aspect in his chart was in 1992. It was a time of divorce, marriage again due to pregnancy and bankruptcy. At that time he did still have his father's fortune to help him out. Today that does not exist.

Pluto (his emotions, property and physical body) stations in a super stress/serious disease inconjunct to his Sun (ego, hopes & dreams, physical body, heart) and Mars (his emotions, property, internet & public visibility, news reception, physical body, blood & energy), while it also opposes (a struggle and need for balance) his Saturn (health, marriage & partners) and Venus (career, contracts & voice).

These are not trivial aspects and as they happen under the stationing of Pluto, they will leave a deep mark. Since we know he is in the hospital, it may include a stroke, heart attack, blood clot, or some other serious event. It will also be a deep psychological struggle that may transform his view of who he is and what he thinks or says.

There are still more layers to these aspects, but as the world waits to see how he fares, I think these are at the top of the list.

I expect you will know more from the news as the morning proceeds.
