    Of particular significance is Holst’s fifth movement, entitled Saturn, the Bringer of Old Age. Alan Leo’s book on astrology described those born under Saturn as having the potential for long life but inclined to plod through life slowly and steadily, often being unresponsive.

    Juno here displays an anti-Trojan bias. We can then see how Venus and Juno could be interpreted as contradicting authoritative texts, based on their respective biases.
