Jupiter-Saturn is the aristocrat of conjunctions, not because it is gentle but because it is rare. The two slowest visible planets meet only once in roughly twenty years, the meeting the mundane tradition has always called the great conjunction and used to mark the turning of eras, which means everyone carrying this pairing natally belongs … Read more
Venus-Ketu is the conjunction the fear-content gets most exactly backwards.
