the generation of 1989 1990 - Neptune and Saturn conjunction 

The Neptune-Saturn Cycle: The Social Impact of People Born in 1989-1990

The Neptune-Saturn cycle holds great significance for those born between 1989 and 1990. As we approach the period of 2025-2026 and Saturn moves to conjunct Neptune in the initial degrees of Aries, the impact of this astrological aspect will become especially pronounced. For individuals born during this time, the Neptune-Saturn aspect embedded in their birth charts, resonating with them like familiar music, means they are likely to become increasingly aware of their ability to navigate and manage social changes in a thoughtful and deliberate manner.  

When examining their interaction with society, the roles of Jupiter and Saturn are crucial. Jupiter symbolizes expansion, representing the drive to move forward and grow. Saturn, on the other hand, embodies structure, providing stability and preventing excess. To draw an analogy, Jupiter can be likened to the muscles that propel us upward, while Saturn acts as the skeleton, offering support and ensuring balanced growth.  

To fully grasp the societal awareness that will emerge during this period, it’s helpful to look back at history. André Barbault, in his 1946 work *Les Cahiers Astrologiques*, provides valuable insights. He describes Jupiter and Saturn as the two poles of society: Jupiter represents the economy, while Saturn symbolizes work. Over time, these roles evolved, with Uranus representing large corporations, industrial experiments, and economic systems, and Neptune symbolizing the masses, communities, unions, and revolutionary ideologies.  

Barbault’s analysis of planetary cycles highlights the profound influence of Saturn-Neptune conjunctions on social, political, and economic transformations. For example:  
- The conjunction of 1881-1882 (in Taurus) marked the rise of revolutionary workers’ movements and the establishment of the first socialist parties in Russia, France, and England. This period was characterized by tangible, material changes, anchoring the ideas generated in earlier cycles.  
- The conjunction of 1989-1990 (in Capricorn) coincided with the collapse of the USSR, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the end of communism in Eastern Europe. This era saw the triumph of democracy and the reunification of Eastern and Western Europe, reflecting a shift in dominant ideologies and the redistribution of power within society.  

These historical examples underscore how Saturn-Neptune conjunctions often signal significant changes or realignments in societal structures, particularly in relation to democracy and the empowerment of the people.  

But what does this mean for individuals born during the 1989-1990 conjunction? Let’s consider a historical figure born under the previous Earth-sign conjunction: Franklin Roosevelt, born in 1882 with the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Taurus. Roosevelt assumed the U.S. presidency during the Great Depression (1933) and implemented the New Deal, a series of programs designed to provide relief, recovery, and reform. His policies focused on creating jobs, stimulating economic growth, and regulating Wall Street. Rather than adhering to a rigid ideology, Roosevelt became a beacon of hope through practical, actionable policies that prioritized human needs and social participation.  

Similarly, individuals born during the 1989-1990 conjunction may find themselves called to reorganize and reform systems as they step into leadership or managerial roles. This generation, now in their mid-30s, is marked by the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Capricorn, emphasizing structure, discipline, and the ability to connect different facets of society. Their heightened awareness of social structures and their flaws enables them to anticipate and address future crises.  

This generation is characterized by a deep sense of collective and social values, as well as a desire to unify disparate elements within society. Today, we can already see this orientation reflected in policies aimed at reintegrating unemployed populations into social activities, such as community service requirements for receiving social benefits.  

As the Saturn-Neptune conjunction reoccurs for this generation, they are becoming increasingly aware of their ability to influence and reshape the social fabric. Pragmatic by nature, they seek to untangle the complexities around them and create systems that are clear, participatory, and inclusive. The keywords for this generation are **clarity** and **participation**.
