Asteroid Juno will soon leave Leo, transitioning from fiery Leo to reserved, subdued, practical earth sign Virgo.
What does this entail for us?
About Juno in Astrology
In astrology, Juno is an asteroid, and there are tens of thousands of asteroids, each of which is linked to something different. Many are just names, but some, like Amor, are associated with specific energies.
This is the asteroid of commitment in the case of Juno. Juno represents how we express commitment and our attitudes toward it, and we can see this in transit through the Zodiac sign Juno is touring and the natal house it is touring in your natal chart.
Impact of Asteroid Juno in Virgo 2023
Juno is in Leo, making commitment more lighthearted and enjoyable. Juno in Virgo takes commitment more seriously, and we can be more practical and quieter about it.
Juno in Virgo can assist us in making small commitments, and we may not care about receiving attention for this. We can demonstrate our commitment in small, practical ways, and we want to take care of the minor details in our committed relationships.
Because Virgo is the sign of work, we can be more committed to our work if it is something we are truly passionate about. And, because Virgo rules health, we can be more committed to healthy habits and routine maintenance.
This Juno in Virgo tour is extra-long and complicated, however, because Juno will retrograde (appear to move backward) entirely in Virgo from January 12th to April 21st 2024. With Juno retrograde in Virgo, we may feel a little off when it comes to commitment, and more obstacles may arise. These may seem insignificant to Virgo, but they add up. We can become anxious and worried about our commitments, and we must calm down so that we do not act rashly. We can get through this if we stay calm. This retrograde period can be beneficial for recommitting to old work projects or jobs.
The retrograde period begins at 21 degrees Virgo and concludes at 6 degrees Virgo.
After the retrograde has passed, we can focus on repairing any areas where our commitment has been compromised, and we can find small ways to be more invested.
Juno will be in Zodiac sign Virgo for nearly ten months, from October 17th, 2023 to August 9th, 2024.
Important Juno in Virgo Aspects:
Juno will be busier in Virgo than it was in Leo because it will be in this sign for an extended period of time, and some aspects will be exact multiple times. First, Juno in Virgo will square Saturn in Pisces, with exact dates on October 19th (both at 0 degrees), March 12th (both at 11 degrees), and July 6th (both at 19 degrees).
Juno opposite Saturn may make commitments more difficult to make because Saturn is a commitment planet. We may struggle with the responsibilities of existing commitments and require some breathing room. We need to scrutinize our commitments to ensure that we’ve approached them correctly and for the right reasons (Saturn-style). We can make changes where we haven’t already.
Then, on November 10th (both at 9 degrees) and March 7th (both at 12 degrees), Juno in Virgo will trine Jupiter in Taurus, which is a beneficial aspect. This is a beneficial aspect of commitment that attempts to make it easier for us to do. We may broaden what we commit to, as well as expand on commitment in some way, in order to be more positive about commitment.
Juno in Virgo trines Uranus in Taurus, and this will be in effect for several months because Ceres retrograde begins in January and Uranus retrograde ends in January with both trine each other. This aspect is exact on December 19th (both at 19 degrees), February 9th (both at 19 degrees), and July 30th (both at 26 degrees), giving us Juno trine Uranus from December to February.
Because Uranus is the planet of change, the unconventional, and the unexpected, we may approach commitment differently, commit in unconventional ways, or make changes to existing commitments. Changes may also occur unexpectedly, in unexpected ways, but because trines are beneficial, this can be a good thing. This trine to Uranus may assist us in escaping the challenging energy of Saturn’s opposition.
On August 8th, Juno will oppose Neptune in Pisces at 29 degrees, the anaretic degree (there are 30 degrees in each Zodiac sign, and the last degree is 29 degrees and is called the anaretic degree). Because Neptune dissolves while the anaretic degree supercharges, we may have difficulty committing to something major around this time (most likely something in the world). Neptune obscures, so we must ensure that we are realistic and see everything we need to see. It may not be the best time to make long-term decisions.
Interestingly, Juno in Virgo only makes one conjunction, on October 22nd at 2 degrees, so early in its tour of the sign. Because Black Moon Lilith is strong and passionate about its beliefs, we may be more committed to a belief, an opinion, or a position.
