Jupiter transiting your Jupiter
Welcome to the cycle of Jupiter, aka the cycle of growth, expansion, and opportunity. It the astrology community, Jupiter is often talked about much like manifestation is. “Just hold the vision and great things are on their way”. And sure, to an extent that is true with Jupiter. But if you take that to heart as the best way to work with Jupiter, you’re only going to get a tiny fraction of the expansion that is possible in your life. Think of it like only getting a single chocolate chip, versus a whole batch of chocolate cookies. That one chip might taste yummy, but man…there’s nothing like being so far in abundance that you get to share the finished product.
So how do you work with Jupiter to get the cookies, the goods, the quantum leap level sexy energy? You double down. You put skin on the line. You put your best on the table. You get on the table and shout to the whole room what you’re about and offering. Jupiter wants to see you be fully present and showing up in full FAITH of goodness arriving.
To core it down more deeply, Jupiter transits ask you to stretch your capacity. To make your beliefs match a new level of opportunity that is arriving in your life. To believe before there is evidence of success, and yes…to take action that will support the arrival of that growth.
I don’t typically get biblical, but the whole Noah’s ark thing is screaming at me. Noah’s chocolate chip would have been telling everyone around town that there was going to be a flood. And I bet before the sadness crushed in, there would be that little morsel of “I told you there would be a flood”. But he got the chocolate chip cookies in this myth and looked at his family in safety from efforts that looked freaking insane before they panned out.
So yeah, be willing to look a little insane. Build the thing believing in your inner vision and voice. Risk looking like a lunatic. Risk…failure. That’s how Jupiter shoots you into a whole different stratosphere (or tax bracket).
All Jupiter transits harken back to your natal Jupiter placement which shows your core way to reach new heights in your life.
Jupiter conjunct your Jupiter
The conjunction of your Jupiter to your natal Jupiter is called the “Jupiter Return”. It occurs once every 12 years. The Jupiter return is the seed of the next cycle of opportunity. It brings an chance to lay a foundation of success in your life, by showing up to the opportunities that arrive with a sober mind and beginners heart. Will you devote yourself to your craft? Will you take advantage of the opportunity that is in front of you with full effort? Or will you laugh it off thinking “Oh, I got this chance, so many more are in my future”.
Take it seriously. Put skin in the game. It may not look like your dream opportunity, but this isn’t the time for pride to get in the way. Say you want to be a movie star, and you get a roll in a commercial. Ew. You wanted to star in a television show, not a commercial. But maybe you take that commercial, you say yes. During filming you meet a director who knows he’s destined for more, but is currently just shooting this dumb commercial. A few years later, that director is casting for a tv show that will go on to be a hit. The character reminds him of this young actor that filmed a dumb commercial with him years ago and suddenly you’re both propelled into fame.
Seize the opportunities in front of you at this time, and be extremely mindful your natal Jupiter energy.
Working with Jupiter transits....
Jupiter has outstanding media coverage. The planet of manifestation, gifts, opportunities, doors flying open out of nowhere. Which to be fair, are all Jupiter things. But Jupiter also is tied to the Wheel of Fortune card in Tarot. The wheel spins and the trick is to answer the question correctly to win the prize.
How do you answer (or respond) to a Jupiter transit in a way to win the prize?
- Be willing to believe in something greater than your current reality.
- Looks for openings to bring that something greater into reality
- Take action to support that expansion
There is a tendency with Jupiter transits to just sit back, spend your money, and reap your reward. But that is a mistake. Jupiter, like all the other planets want to see you RESPOND to it working in your life.
