Jupiter
Today's Jupiter (ancient Egyptian: Hor-wepesh-taui; Hebrew: צֶדֶק Tsedeq; astronomical sign: ♃) arose from a spiritual-scientific point of view, when the so-called Old Sun's existence was repeated in an abbreviated form during the earth evolution. It consists essentially of gas and heat. Jupiter's sidereal orbital period is 11.86 years.
„Jupiter has a moderate active power because its motion is between the cooling influence of Saturn and the burning power of Mars. It heats and moistens; And because its heating power is the greater because of the underlying spheres, it produces fertilising winds.“
A Great Conjunction of [[Saturn and Jupiter occurs about every 20 years. Some astronomers and historians suggest that the Star of Bethlehem at the time of Jesus' birth may have been a Great Conjunction in the years 7 to 6 B.C.[1][2] The most recent, spiritually very significant Great Conjunction occurred in the evening of December 21, 2020.
Spiritual Importance
Jupiter is the seat of the Jupiter beings that stimulate the consciousness soul
. The Jupiter sphere is the domain of the Spirits of Wisdom. The leading Archangel of Jupiter is Zachariel.
In the human organism, Jupiter's forces have a special effect on the formation and activity of the liver, and in speech they reveal themselves through the vowel O. In plants, Jupiter's influence is reflected in the formation of fruit. As a tree, the maple is associated with Jupiter, and among the earthly metals, tin came into being through the direct influence of Jupiter.
