All About Rituals For the Jupiter Uranus Conjunction
Buckle up, Bestie! Jupiter is conjunct Uranus today, and this is absolutely one of the most astrologically awesome happenings of 2024. I am hearing left and right from clients and those around me that there is an “on the cusp of something new” feeling and this is truly the energy right now.
You can sense it — whatever it is — and I am going to dive into some of the why.
Every 14 years, these two planets connect, yet the fact that it is happening in Taurus is what is truly exciting (this has not happened since 1941!)
Taurus is all about abundance and resources, as well as the more luxurious side of life, as it is ruled by Venus.
So you take Taurus season and combine it with the incredibly powerful aspect of Jupiter (which is all about expansion and abundance) which joins Uranus in tandem (which is this rebellious, spontaneous, take action kind of change) and wow, we've got magic.
Financial abundance, relationship shifts, and up-leveling in your spiritual and intuitive realms are to be anticipated, especially if you have been doing some clearing and revising this Mercury Retrograde Season.
So as mentioned we may be soaking this all in, but we are still in a Mercury Retrograde. The good news is that does not officially end until the 24th.
I know many of you have been so eager to get back into some rituals, so I wanted to gather some "softer" ones for you to have on hand, just in case you are wanting to tap deeper into this incredible energy and time. Here they are in no particular order.
- Say your mantras and affirmations in your mirror. Write them on a Post-it (or with your lipstick, so Venusian!) and stick them in the bathroom, or by your keys, or in the drop down mirror of your car. Anywhere you will see them regularly, and use your voice to bring them to life.
- Clear out your wallet, or purse, or backpack, if that is how you roll. File or recycle old receipts, tuck away any notes or business cards you have gathered, and make space in those vessels for more. More abundance, more wealth, more connections, but first we need to clear.
- Propose the idea or take the chance. What is it you have been dreaming of? What concept or creation have you been brewing on, and have talked yourself out of proposing? What have you been longing to try or to birth into this timeline? Now is the time. With the luck of Jupiter and the “take action” properties of Uranus, I repeat, now is the time. Start by softly planning or brainstorming and see where it takes you.
- Practice openness. This might be trying a new activity or having the newest coffee drink that you have been wanting to try, yet instead always resort to getting your tried and true fave. Take a different route on your walk or run, try that recipe you have had your eye on. Whatever is it, step out of your comfort zone today and stay open to what happens as a result!
- Hop on the Time Passages app I am always chatting about. Check out your chart, and see which house Taurus is in for you. You can also purchase the transit chart for the 20th if you desire to check that out as well. There is so much information on there — it is a lot of fun to deep dive and learn!
- I will probably always include this one because it is that powerful - clean out your closet and shoe storage. Clear out the clothes and items you no longer need or wear, and resell or donate them. Upcycle, recycle, pay it forward. This is not only about clearing out the old and stagnant to create space for what is new and next, it is also about caring for our communities and our world as a whole. Gaia cares so fully for us, so let’s show our love in return.
- I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge the auspicious date of 4/20. Okay, okay, I will leave it at that. You do you, friend!
- Pull out a journal or the Notes App on your phone, and jot down all those creative and innovative ideas you have been having. They can be either personal or professional, or better yet both! Write as many as you remember for this moment, and know now you have a place to record them as they flow in and through you!
- Breathe, move, relax. Uranus is connected to electricity, and we can pick up on this in our bodies. Be intentional with your meditative and movement practice, and go a little deeper, a little slower, and take care to check in with yourself often. I love training and hitting the sauna after, that really does it for me.
- The luxury aspect of Taurus does not have to be about spending all the money, honey. It can be about tending to yourself and being cozy, and maybe even a little more lazy (rewrite that word for yourself!). A little more Kerrygold butter on your sourdough or a little extra chocolate in the afternoon. And if you do want to spend and indulge in some crystals, you know where to find me.
Whatever you do during this conjunction, do it with the deliberate intention of truly caring for yourself in mind.
After all, feeling worthy is your birthright and now is the perfect time to embody this fully.
