Jupiter Return #3

The heavy contraction just ended, and for the first time there is a frame that holds. Banked experience and a position that takes weight mean reaching outward starts from a floor. Settle whether to deepen or switch. Not both.

In detail

Jupiter Return #3: Jupiter arrives at the natal degree a third time, between roughly 35 and 37, close behind the Saturn return near 29 and the structural testing that follows it. This expansion pushes off a frame only recently set, so there is something to lever against, and the question narrows accordingly: go deeper on the track already laid, or switch while the foundation is still new. Jupiter covers about 5 arcminutes a day, so a 3-degree orb spans roughly ten weeks. Compared with the open-ended searching of the return at 24, the stake here is larger and the options fewer, and the cost of a wrong call starts being measured in years.

FAQ

How is the return at 36 best used?

It pushes off the frame the Saturn return has just set, so concentrating resources on one track pays: either deepen the existing one or switch while the foundation is new. Attempting both usually loses both.

Why does it land so soon after the Saturn return?

Jupiter takes about twelve years per lap and Saturn about twenty-nine and a half. Three Jupiter laps come to roughly 35.6 years, which places this return a few years after the Saturn return, so expansion follows structural testing directly.
