Whereas Mars' year last about two of ours, Jupiter has a an orbit of twelve, Saturn one of twenty-nine and a half, Uranus eighty-four, Neptune 168 and Pluto 249. Keep in mind that planets<a href="tiki-editpage.php?page=planets" title="Create page: planets"  class="wiki wikinew">?</a> should be seen as actors, the ones who move. Think of signs<a href="tiki-editpage.php?page=signs" title="Create page: signs"  class="wiki wikinew">?</a> as the scenes through which the planets move. Hence, the inner planets have many scenes, experiences, much like we do on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. With issues dealing history or society, no one has the time to digest  the many incidents we experience in the short periods the inner planets represent. On the other hand since, for instance, Saturn appears in the same sign only about three times a century, something much more easily notable. Extend this theme to where the return occurs once a century (Uranus), a little over a century and a half (Neptune) and two and half centuries (Pluto) and the 'historical' seems readily apparent.<br /><br /><a name='Jupiter'></a><h3>Jupiter</h3><br /><ul><li>Jupiter Year= ~12 Earth years.</li></ul><br /> Known to astrologers as planet of expansion, likely because of its gaseous nature.<br /><br /><a name='_a_title_Saturn_href_tiki_index_php_page_Saturn_class_wiki_Saturn_a_'></a><h3><a title="Saturn" href='tiki-index.php?page=Saturn' class='wiki'>Saturn</a></h3><br /><ul><li>Saturn Year = 29.5 earth years.</li></ul><br />Astrologers tie this planet to structure, restriction and foundation. Many good reasons justify this association. Saturn orbits through our solar system as the last one visible to the naked eye, setting the limit our comprehension not requiring instrumentation. Before Uranus was officially discovered in 1783 (Uranus was visible by telescope in the 1690s but not identified as a planet), Saturn represented the limit of our solar system.<br /><br /><a name='Uranus'></a><h3>Uranus</h3><a name='Neptune'></a><h3>Neptune</h3><a name='Pluto'></a><h3>Pluto</h3><br /><ul><li>Pluto Year = 249 Earth Years</li></ul>
