On April 4th, a long-term Jupiter/Pluto alignment in almost 25 degrees of Capricorn becomes exact at 10:45pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect from March 11th on; it will remain strong until May 2nd.
This is the first Jupiter/Pluto alignment of the year. There will be two other ones throughout the year: on June 30th (24º), and Nov. 12th (almost 23º); these conjunctions start a new 13-year cycle.
Due to Pluto’s Station phase in April/May we may experience this aspect more intensely in April than at any other time this year.
The last two times these particular planets connected was in Dec. 2007, in 28º of Sagittarius, and in Dec. 1994, in 28º of Scorpio. The last of these cycles to occur in the sign of Capricorn began in Feb. 1771 and the one before that started in Jan. 1522 — note also that there are larger cycles within the smaller cycles.
Think back to Dec. 2007, and ask yourself: What “forced” me to look beyond my current understanding to a larger perspective so I could grow and evolve? In what ways did I need to take a deeper look at my belief systems at that time? How did I want to better myself? What situation in my life required a “rebirth”? How can I now take that to the next level?
This aspect invites us to see the bigger picture in our attempt to regain control over our collective experience. This will likely spark major revelations and reformations, as fundamental assumptions are challenged, hypocrisies exposed, and priorities reordered. Benefits may come now through those in authority or the government. It can also be a time of personal growth and expansion. This can also be…

What’s my biggest fear in connection with the area of life where this alignment is taking place in my birth chart? What’s being seeded this year — in connection with my own personal growth and my Soul Purpose — that will be looking to expand over the next 13 years? How might this be a new beginning for me?
We will also be talking about this aspect — in connection with our own Birth charts — in our upcoming Forecasting Forum on April 6th. Click here to register (if you are not already a Star Member).
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 22-28 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries, or Libra? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Sagittarius or Scorpio (Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius; Pluto rules Scorpio)

Great article Sonja :0) Interesting where this falls in my chart, right in between my natal Mercury and South Node! Would be great to discuss about this in our session next week. 1994 and 2007 were both years of big change and moving?!
Thanks for the clarity xxx.
Thanks, Terry. Happy to hear that you enjoyed the article. We can certainly discuss this further in our next session. We will also talk about it in more detail in the Monthly Forecasting Forum on Monday evening
Hello Sonja ,
Awesome article and so much to unpack the patterns that are not hidden anymore!!! Jupiter is a big influence it seems, as so is my Saturn, Jupiter Moon (a trio, a blend I perceive that I need to clarify, to expand perceptions and make new choices available) In my reflections and introspection with most of your questions, I realize how far I have come; scary and the gut wrench shows me hidden tension that some questions evoke – habits that are scary to let go?? hahaaa – “hold on, get a grip, drama, tension” vs. curiosity, clarity, good vibes, relate, resolve,… How interesting, as I read your article I am in my body and listening and feeling and it is opening up to my expanding awareness. I used to be so focused on everyone else and the mind, I did not know this. I ignored me and Intuition. I can consider your questions from a different perspective now… I do not know where it leads yet, but change at the moment is ” tipping up everyone’s apple carts.” I am finding support in here, and comforted knowing that other people are also exploring….. Thank you very much, I am looking forward to seeing you on Monday for certain : ))
Thanks so much for your lovely message, April. Happy to hear that things are changing and evolving for you. Looking forward to “seeing” you on Monday for the Forum 😉 Love and blessing to you! Sonja
