The great conjunction of Jupiter/Tzedek and Saturn/Shabtai has had special meaning in Jewish astrological thought since this cosmic convergence became the focus of Jewish messianic speculation. It started with the earliest contacts with its origins in third-century Sasanian Persia through Abu Ma’ashar, to the medieval commentators such as Abraham Bar Hiyya, Abraham Ibn Ezra and others. Jupiter and Saturn make a conjunction in the zodiac sign of Aquarius on December 21, 2020, the 6th of Tevet 5781, the day of the winter solstice, tekufah Tevet, for the first time since the year 1405. This is significant because of the special relationship of both the planet Saturn and the constellation of Aquarius to the Jewish people, and the belief that this event heralds the advent of political and social change, the emergence of a new dynasty, nation or a great prophet. There is no more important celestial event in our lifetimes, triggering the inexorable movement toward an “Aquarian Age.” But is it good for the Jews?Saturn-ruled Tevet, whose tribal ruler is border-guarding Dan, comes to teach us the importance of boundaries, structures and personal responsibility in our lives.
