Scroll down for every Jupiter Saturn conjunction date from 2092 BC until 2100 C.E. The color-coding shows which element they occurred in. As you can see, they run in clusters of a particular element before changing to a new one. The conjunction of December 2020 was the first in Aquarius since 1405, the Renaissance Era.

Why are the Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction dates so important?

The Jupiter-Saturn conjunction is easily the most written about astrological phenomenon in history. Called the Great Conjunction or the Chronocrator – as in time-keeper – it occurs every 19.85 years. But the alignments form far greater cycles of 60 years, 180 years, and so on. It’s the basis of many ancient calendars, Feng Shui, and astro-financial predictions.

Jupiter is the go-to planet for wealth and being boss. Saturn, which marked the known edges of the galaxy for millennia, represents structure, rulers, and the prevailing establishment. Their conjunction is congruent with new styles of leadership and economic trends.

An example? Michaelangelo’s David was launched to the public at the exact moment of Jupiter conjunct Saturn in Cancer. It was probably the ‘bright star’ above the Bethlehem stable where Jesus was born and writers like Chaucer saw it as undoing the ill-effect of Saturn.

Jupiter-Saturn Conjunctions Set Global Meta-Trends

The Great Conjunction has infinite amounts of symmetry: on top of all the cycles mentioned above, it also runs in elements – Fire, Earth, Air, and Water.

December 2020 began a new cycle in Air, completing the previous Earth cycle that began in 1842, 20 years after the start of the Industrial Revolution. If you’re into history, check out the Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions below and see if they align with any of the meta-trends you follow.
