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.
