Wedding Astrology usually considers a specific birth date, a wedding, as the beginning of a relationship together. But astrology can also forecast trends in the future. Jupiter in Gemini and Cancer during 2013 and Saturn in Scorpio throughout 2013 will imbue all weddings during these times with their particular flavors.
Jupiter in Gemini
From 2102 to June 26, 2013
Jupiter in Gemini is light, bright and airy. Brides will adore all the multi-tasking involved in creating lively and fun weddings. There’s sure to be a wide variety of people and activities to interest, amuse and entertain everyone. Iridescent favors, rainbows of flowers and bright colors should abound. Jupiter in Gemini is most appropriate for light-hearted and casual wedding parties.
Couples will enjoy sharing vows, reading meaningful verses or poems and inviting others in the wedding party to join in (though perhaps it’s best to review them beforehand – you never know what a Jupiter-struck best man will blurt out!). A rehearsed first dance and an array of drinks and hors d’oeurves at the reception will get the party started with all the joy and effervescence natural to Jupiter in Gemini. Enjoy!
Jupiter in Cancer
From June 27, 2013 to mid July 2014
Feel the glow! Jupiter in Cancer is warm, supportive and nurturing. Brides will be deeply involved with their families at this time and relish the opportunity to connect with their extended family and close friends. Feelings of intimacy and fond memories help everyone celebrate this important rite of passage. Soft colors, silvery and shimmery fabrics and well-loved songs all reflect the Cancerian mode.
Weddings may feature vintage styles, romantic themes or heirloom pieces. Family churches, well-known officiants, ordained family members or favorite children add perfect notes of tradition to the ceremony. Relatives and friends easily share their close personal feelings – both in public or up-close. Receptions in homey settings (whether private homes, inns or lush halls) and at waterfront or moonlit locales all glisten under Jupiter in Cancer.
Saturn in Scorpio
October 6, 2012 through 2014 and beyond
Saturn in Scorpio partners tend to know exactly what they want from their marriages and weddings. This placement ushers in deep, intense unions and significant commitments. You are not just cooperating – you’re forging a close bond.
Take your time in planning your wedding and use Scorpio’s persistence and determination to get things done. You may find you have more assets than you realized. Parents or in-laws might even help in financing; loans are a possibility, too, but try not to overburden yourselves with too much debt at the start of your marriage.
Being indebted to others is a clear Scorpio concept, but one which is obviously complex. If your father-in-law foots the bill for the wedding, he may also want to not-so-subtly insist on inviting his business partner and having buffalo steaks on the menu. Consider the implications of such large financial “gifts” before you accept.
Family dynamics always seem to surface at weddings and Saturn in Scorpio times are certainly no exception. Your mom may want doddering Aunt Janet to preside, have you wear the creepy old jewelry her grandmother left, or otherwise take over the proceedings. Since Scorpio energies tend to be intense, try to avoid building up resentments or manipulating your nearest and not-so-dearest. Make your wedding choices clear and be open about them. Trust your instincts. If you’re honest about your feelings, you’ll be ahead of the game. Stand your ground if necessary, make a firm decision and move on.
Pruning the guest list is a rite of passage of Saturn in Scorpio. Be sure your own friends are still invited after including everyone else’s “must haves.” Remember: It’s your wedding!
Couples who are hardworking and determined to succeed should do well with Saturn in Scorpio. You’re building the foundation for your married life and your wedding and marriage will reflect your mature, realistic and committed attitude.
Whatever your wedding plans for 2013, it’s sure to be a plus if you allow Jupiter in Gemini or Cancer to connect you with a light or warm mood, and Saturn in Scorpio to show you what’s real.
