Jupiter Transit in Libra in 2016

Jupiter in Libra

Jupiter in LibraWelcoming Jupiter’s entrance to Libra on September 9, 2016 until October 10, 2017:  Jupiter is the planet of abundance, luck and sometimes the one that pushes us into taking risks, which is fine as long as it is done with balance.  And Libra is the sign of balance and harmony and together they could make a good pair, with the right amount of push to get along with others, the right words to mend many years of enemity, the right touch of color to bring light to a dark space, or the just the amount of luck that is needed to get that job.  Whatever you need for the next year or so, Jupiter can be a strong force to make it happen with a bit of charm and diplomacy. Jupiter is a stroke of luck but you need to exert that willpower to get it working for you.  So put on that smile and go for it.  As always, there is a potential for excess with Jupiter, and in Libra it could involve overspending on pretty and luxurious items.  Not only is the house from the ascendant where Jupiter will be transiting is important, but also look at the 2 houses that Jupiter will be trining. If there are any planets here, this is potent in terms of being lucky and rewarding. This will give cue as to what to expect.

Jupiter Transiting the 1st house:   Generally this will be a time of positive attitude and you are going to be optimistic and project the best of yourself.  If  Jupiter in 1st is trining the planets in the 9th it could mean that you are enthused  to explore, travel, and broaden your attitude. The same goes with planets in the 5th.  Jupiter may push you to get in touch with your hobbies, or be lucky for your kids, or bring out the child in you.

Jupiter Transiting the 2nd house:  Lucky for money and finance but also Jupiter may be trine the 10th house and  6th house planets.  Since both 10th and 6th houses are concerned with career, work, this may mean a career boost or finding the job that you want, which also brings in more money.   So this is a good time to go ask your boss for that promotion/raise.  If you’ve wanted to do something different in your life regarding your career, this can be a good opportunity to wet the feet and see if it feels right.  However, there is a warning her of overspending especially on pretty Libra things.

Jupiter Transiting the 3rd house: I’ve noticed that Jupiter transiting 3rd house is usually good for learning something new just for the sake of fun or for long term goals.  Jupiter in Libra in 3rd maybe the apt time to mend a relationship with a sibling or a surly neighbor, and with a friend or any romantic relationship, since Jupiter here also may make a trine to planets in 11th and 7th .

Jupiter Transiting the 4th house:  If you wanted to remodel or tinker with your existing home, or venture into buying a new home, this may be the right time.  We all know we need a lot of luck to do either one of them. You may also find better luck moving if you are not happy with where you are living.  Jupiter here also trines 12th and 8th of the unconscious and subsconscious. This is interesting, because 4th is also the realm of the emotions and it may be beneficial to dig deep through those hidden attics and closets through therapy (8th) or meditation (12th).

Jupiter Transiting the 5th house:   Generally lucky with kids, fun hobby projects or find ways to shine, to perform, to be at the center, to advertise yourself.  This is the time to put yourself right at that center of the galaxy and not feel guilty about it.   The 5th also trines the 1st and 9th, and any matters related to how you project yourself to the world (goes hand in hand in wanting to be at the center), or advancing yourself is all being blessed with big glowing planet.

Jupiter Transiting the 6th house: If you ever wanted to start a new habit, like meditating every morning, going to sleep by a particular time, following a fitness schedule, then Jupiter is with you now lending you his big alarm clock.  From the 6th house, Jupiter also trines 10th and 2nd, and so the house of career and money will be rewarded.  This means when you make a schedule, plan and stick to it and most likely, other parts of your life will start improving.

Jupiter Transiting the 7th house:  Good for getting into relationships or improving existing ones.  This is especially important since Jupiter is in Libra,  the 7th archetype of relationships.  So there is double focus now on making relationships work, socializing,  negotiating, and putting all kinds of partnerships in the forefront.  Jupiter also trines 3rd and 11th  house, which includes siblings, neighbors, friends and communities.  So all in all, with Jupiter transiting the 7th house, luck lies in putting others in front of you.

Jupiter Transiting the 8th house:  It sounds funny to say that the time is ripe for death and taxes.  But now more than any other time, lady luck is with you in the areas of insurance, joint finance, business deals, all kinds of taxes, intimate relationships,  sex, secrets, and anything else that can’t be really talked about or does not fit in any other house. Jupiter transiting 8th house interestingly also trines the 4th and 12th, and so it is also a good time for deep emotional cleansing.

Jupiter Transiting the 9th house:  Plan on exploring and broadening your horizon, which could mean going for higher studies if this is in your long range plan, traveling, learning about  new religions and philosophies that are foreign, exotic and unfamiliar.  Since 9th house is also trine to 1st and 5th, it is a good time to get the well deserved attention from the world by projecting a new set of attitude and looks.

Jupiter Transiting the 10th house:  Jupiter could be your venture capitalist in building a new career or advancing in the current one.  This is a time to stomp out fear and market you in the best possible light.  Since 10th is trine 2nd house of money, and the 6th house of work, you have a good chance of raising your financial status.

Jupiter Transiting the 11th house:  If you ever wanted to be involved in a group, community or some humanitarian cause, Jupiter can guide you to the right place where you feel a sense of belonging.  So checking out organizations that reflect your humanitarian values and you may very well become  a leader.  11th house is also trine 7th and 3rd, so  extend your friendships to your romantic partners, siblings and neighbors, or enlist them too in your higher level cause.

Jupiter transiting 12 house:  Great for spiritual renewal or taking that much needed break to be with yourself. Tune out of social media, parties, or social engagements that distract you from your spiritual path and healing.  If you’ve tried and failed before, now you may be able to retreat into your own sanctity.  Take a meditation class, or learn yoga, tai chi or music in order to harness the Universal bliss.

Astrology Insignt for January 2017

mnthly astrological insignt

mnthly astrological insigntThis is a very dynamic month with a lot of support available to release old patterns of thinking and acting that no longer serve you and to welcome new ways of being guided by compassion.
