Jupiter has now completely vanished from sight in the glow of the Sun. In Shamanic Astrology, we view this as a trip to the underworld. While this is not always the case, this time Jupiter’s trip will involve a transformation and rebirth as a new archetypal year-king from Gemini to Cancer.
For about month, Jupiter will be gone from our naked eyes, passing behind the Sun (from Earth’s vantage point) and the trickster energy ebbs and wanes.

This is all leading to a time when neither the patriarchy nor matriarchy will be in charge, but a version of conscious, equal partnership will be in place. At least, that is the intent. When that actually takes place is not known. However, Jupiter’s emergence in Cancer on June 25th, then appearing in the morning sky around July 3rd or 4th presents a golden opportunity for the global communities to see that we are truly one family on this mothership called Earth.
