Bowl & Bundle Charts for Exceptional Talents!
Planet patterns in our charts result in our approaching life so differently…
Bowl and Bundle charts depend on how close the outer planets are.
Rock-a-bye baby…the current Bowl Chart Pattern possibility started in 2015 when outer planet Jupiter moved into Virgo at 210° or less from Uranus in Aries. When Jupiter was more than that 210° away from Uranus, a different planet pattern was formed. When Jupiter went into Libra and became halfway across the wheel from Uranus, with all the other outer planets and the others between them on one side, we had the classic Bowls 180 degrees across.
When Jupiter moved into Scorpio the outer planets became even less than halfway! When they all were 150° or less it became possible to have Bundle charts, the rarest of all the planetary patterns! While Jupiter was in Sagittarius the outer planets became even less than halfway! At that time, each period when the Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars passed from Scorpio through Taurus at the same time, Bowls occurred, all the planets on one side. When Jupiter moved into Capricorn, the outer planets were within a trine, a third of the wheel, and when the other planets were between them on the same side, the Bundle was quite intense, all the planets close within only 150° or less!
With Jupiter’s final conjunction with Pluto Nov 2020, Pluto is now the base outer planet, holding the integrity of the purpose of the group, pushing us along. As Pluto moves through late Capricorn the distance will be the least March/April 2022 at only 104°!!! When Jupiter went into Virgo in 2015, Uranus, the Aquarian planet, also became the clear leader of the outer planet group. He will continue to lead until Jupiter passes him in April 2024. That’s a nine year run.
Importantly, that brings us up to and past Pluto’s sign change into Aquarius March 23 2023! At that point, Pluto, as base planet of the outer planets, changes purpose and supports the other planets differently than before! No longer deeply focused in Capricorn careers and corporations, there is a dispersion of goods and energy achieved. The entire field of life broadens. Aquarius is the humanitarian master, the sign of evolution, awakening. Sciences will extend further into electronics, robotics. Pluto will be wielding that power. Even if he tries to covet the monies, he will find his position eroding, and there will be resistance, inevitable change. Sustainability will be the super hand to play, to save our planet and its people. See Pluto in Aquarius
Pluto will be in Aquarius 21 years, until January 2044! Pluto was last in Aquarius 248 years ago, 1777 to 1799, a 22 year period of worldwide uproar and change – American revolution, the French revolution, the Industrial revolution in England. And it won’t be any different this time! Since that last 248 years ago we now have bombs, climate change, a pandemic, electronic communication, robotics, and a helluva a lot more people on the planet. Water and weather wars are possible. Actually, water wars are already starting. We need to reassess our mandates for leadership – age and both physical and mental health. There are going to be some bumps. Some say, after the kinks are worked out, there will be a ‘Golden Age!’ Make it so. Or maybe that would be just toooo boring and other things will happen, LOL! Pluto as the base outer planet takes on new meaning!
Depending on the time of day, a Bowl may be at the bottom of the chart collecting, or over the top pouring out its collection or making shade or being an umbrella! At the sides of the chart it may act as a wind scoop or buffer, satellite dish receiver! And so it is symbolically with those of us who have this kind of birth chart. We may always be gathering, sheltering, protecting, guarding, outpouring what’s ours.
Children, adults, born with Bowl charts can be introverted, very skilled, value their possessions. They love rolling around inside that Bowl, but in what they see as their own territory! They may be self-contained with great inner strength. They can be super generous if their Bowl is over the top or tips out abundance. If their Bowl is at the side of their chart they may have super focus and awareness of their surroundings, echo back what they see. The Bowl below may wait to see what falls their way, keeping the keepers, pushing out what doesn’t fit any longer or is outgrown. Priorities become important.
Some astrologers say Bowl chart people ‘need’ people of the signs of the part of their chart that isn’t filled. I don’t find that to be true. Many are quite content being exactly who they are, doing what they love. Focused and intent as they are, working for perfection, they already have enough to do, LOL! They do their job, let others do theirs.
A little more about Bowls! In zodiacal order, the starting and ending signs and planets are important as such, and they are likely opposite! They ‘know’ each other because they are opposite sides of the same coin so to speak. The first sign, base planet, takes up the thread. The information is passed along, refined, enhanced, is the final product at the last sign. That ‘line’ side to side, across the edges of the top of the Bowl can be defining or, as others might see it, limiting, if you don’t do what they want you to do. They may see it as the entry or collection area, a welcoming place not limiting at all! Remember too, that you are seeing it from your perspective, not theirs.
If the mid sign between the first and last signs is occupied by a planet, that planet takes on importance because it often aspects those beginning and ending signs equally, influencing their actions with the same flavor. That is a common configuration to Bowls. If it is the midpoint of a 180° opposition, it is called a T Square! T Squares are considered challenging, but some relish the challenge, and after all, if you live with it all your life, somewhere along in time, you learn to use it well. That sign at the belly of the Bowl is the T Square point. It can be a settling point or the ‘point’ of the bowl that leads from within, or a bit of both, used when needed! Once you have the info needed and is analyzed, you get going!
If the Bowl is on its side, facing left or right, the T Square point may ‘take the point,’ supported by the rest of the planets, taking precedence over all the other signs and planets in the Bowl! Since it pushes forward, leads the way, it also distributes information it comes across back to the other planets. If pointing left, it might be a spiritual leader. If it points to the right, it might be a social power engaged in litigations, or be an ambassador. If the Bowl is on its belly, the T pointing down, it may be a deep seeker, strongly grounded, perhaps more internalized than most Bowls! If the Bowl is an umbrella over the top, the T Point might raise the roof, seek higher ground, want a lot more in life, seek enlightenment! Rather than shelter, it plows and pierces it’s way upward through the layers and has the planets to back its endeavor! It draws prevailing information currents, higher knowledge, golden Light down to it’s planets.
In Bowls, outer planets will be quite close to each other, as various planets come to be 210° to 150° with all the planets on one side of the chart. With all the outer planets in only 150° or less, Bundle charts are formed!
As Pluto moves into late Capricorn the distance between the outer planets will be the least. Mar 27 to April 3, 2022 ALL the planets are in a tight span of only 104°! Here is a powerful Moon/Sun/ASC Bundle chart I like at Midnight March 27!
The pattern is formed by Pluto 28 Capricorn, bottom left, to Uranus at 12 Taurus at the 5/6 house line in Santa Barbara CA. Other factors are shown, but are not planets. 4 Planets in Aquarius, 3 in Pisces. If you like this chart too, be sure to have it calculated for your location and at time of day that suits your purpose. If the day doesn’t suit you, tweak it to fit. See your astrologer(s). See more about this chart in Stelliums!
Bundle charts don’t have that collecting, holding, spilling capacity that Bowls do. They are more like thrusters of the Rocket, a super concentrated force moving through space at will. Or they are entirely unto themselves, quite self contained, little disturbs them. It may take quite a lot of energy to change their direction from outside. If they decide to change their course from within, it is done. Move out of the way. However, this chart above, is Sun Aries, Moon Aquarius. Quite curious and fearless, with Pisces intuition at full throttle, Pluto at the rudder! There may be some fast and fancy intense maneuvering!
That pattern, a Bundle, 150° or less, is the most rare! Due to outer planet spreads, it can be 100s of years between times they can be formed! It is characteristic for Bundle charts to have stelliums, groups of planets in one sign or a house. Stelliums often have potent conjunctions, planets next to each other in close degree. This one has the unique 166 year Jupiter conjunct Neptune! Link to come… They can be remarkable mergers of power even making a third force available! Exceptional people with fantastic specialty talents will be born! At Bundle times, planetary events will have a singularity, others will be ‘neglected,’ not have priority, simply because there are no planets there to deal with them. What becomes most important to us personally is which HOUSES those planets are activating in our birth charts. For this you need to know your birth time. Look ahead to those times so you can be in harmony with this extraordinary energy and use it well! See your astrologer(s).
A person born in that period will become an expert – the rest is not their job. Pay careful attention to nurture the best in young ones born with those bundles charts, to be just the way they are. Pay attention to their signals. Remember they are practically geniuses at what they do. At the very least they are marvelous specialists! If they have a stellium, many planets in one sign, and that is likely, they may seem obsessed, but they are just putting many planets’ skills toward one matter. You could also say they have spiritually chosen to master this skill this lifetime. It is likely a crucial next step in the sequence of lifetimes they have chosen and this may be the crash course to catch up or keep up! Help them any way you can.
We are living in a rare planetary time. 2021 to June 2, 2024 base planet Pluto and leading planet Uranus will be in less than a third of the chart! Many Bowl and Bundle charts will be possible. Jan 21, 2024 Pluto pops into Aquarius its final time, Jupiter passes Uranus then trines Pluto June 2. From then on, the Bundle chart is not as tight, will soon exceed the degrees of the definition. When Jupiter makes it to Leo mid 2026, we are back to Bowl charts for a brief period. Then, Bowl charts won’t happen again until 2031. For Bundles it will be a long, long time as Uranus and Saturn move out of the trine/third from Pluto and the outer planets spread out around the signs.
We need these people. Many people, Souls, will be called on to have the much needed specialties of these charts to concentrate on planetary matters – environmental and social. Many people will be born with these powerful configurations. Keep their Spirits well fed. They may quickly absorb, knead, devour, grind up, nibble and nosh, dispatch and dispose of what’s not needed or done with. They will take the polished results to the bank!
