The Social Planets
Jupiter and Saturn

with Mark Jones, Darby Costello and Tony Howard

What You'll Learn in this Course

In this course we will explore the archetypes of the two “social” planets: Jupiter and Saturn

You’ll learn how to  interpret these planets in the natal chart as a foundation for later work with aspects and timing. 

Jupiter and Saturn are sometimes discussed as polar opposites, with Jupiter signifying the energetic of expansion while Saturn describes the energetic of contraction

As we learn more about these two powerful dynamics, we’ll discover how they can bring each other into balance, and how both energies are crucial to understand and integrate. 

These two planets are referred to as “social” planets because they start to take us beyond our personal ego experience into the social realms where we meet morals and laws and society at large. Still, they are incredibly personal at the same time. 

Through chart examples and exploration of the meaning of each planet, we’ll learn several tips and tools for working with them constructively in our own charts while developing the skill to describe them to others.

“Tony, your lectures have been stellar. It's clear that you're rigorously thinking through the order in which we need to hear the information to facilitate our actually taking it in. Moreover, you're also resisting the temptation to make the meanings formulaic, and thus overly reductive. I think it's quite remarkable that after a mere three lessons, I'm starting to grok how to think astrologically.”
– Susan Shannon
