#jupiter 2022

4th house: (Capricorn rising)

This transit affects your relationship to your roots, your sense of home and belonging. Perhaps you get the urge to re-vamp your space and take on extraneous home projects that will come to reflect your sense of self more accurately and strengthen your sense of belonging. Curiosity could peak about your past and your roots— maybe you get your DNA analysed to learn more about your lineage or spend time at your mum or grandmas house inquiring about their past lives and going through old family photos. You may find yourself analysing your past so as to understand it’s impact on your present. You could take on a more maternal role at this time, or crave maternal affection from any number of sources. This time gives you permission to embrace your inner domestic queen.

5th house: (Sagittarius rising)

This Jupiter in Aries transit will put a spotlight on your romantic life, expanding all vessels of pleasure (art, love, creation). You could gain many suitors at this time and find yourself on a number of dates. While the fifth house is less promising of long term love and favours ‘fun’, all romantic adventures should strengthen your confidence and sense of self. You’re artistic abilities could expand, leading you to explore different artistic modes and styles— what was once stifled in expression is able to flow freely. Children could come into significance at this time, wether it’s having your own or feeling more connected to the children in your life. This is a time to embrace your inner child, the inquisitive artist that strives to create and love freely, with no concept of the meaning of ‘failure’, ‘wrong’, ‘rejection’ etc.

6th house: (Scorpio rising)

This Jupiter in Aries transit may give you the fuel you require to succeed in your workplace. You could grow more comfortable and more capable when it comes to serving the needs of others— it could give you great satisfaction to pour an abundance of energy into your job and then leave it all behind as soon as your out of the door. You could receive a promotion or gain recognition in your line of work. Your health may come into focus at this time, and any areas of previous neglect will be focused on meticulously— taking care of yourself/self improvement tasks may be your most important job. You could get a new pet at this time or find yourself taking care of someone else’s— another equally satisfying endeavour under this transit. This is a time where day to day mundanities are suddenly gleamed in wonder and given great care.

For Tuesday, December 20 

At 6:32 am (PST) Jupiter goes into Aries - I made a whole post about it already! Anytime a long-transiting planet goes into a new sign there can be a shift felt; a shift in focus and an overall “vibe” change that may be difficult to explain. From sleepy and blind-faith oriented Pisces, which took us on a ride through some scary events, to brave and confident Aries, we may find ourselves feeling ready to “jump” starting on the 20th of December this year. The moon has a very busy day, and it starts out in a sextile with Pluto, which steadily strengthens and goes exact later in the evening. The moon sextile Pluto aspects opens us up to a deep well of inner strength, and can also heighten our intuition. We may feel somewhat more ready to take on what’s needed in order to ensure a sense of stability and “getting ahead”, especially with Pluto in Capricorn interacting with the Scorpio moon; Pluto is Scorpio’s modern ruler, and so there is a somewhat extra tinge of harmoniousness coming through this aspect on Tuesday. We may also be able to face certain aspects of our (and others’) inner darkness nearly unscathed, on this day. 

At around 10:00 AM the moon forms a trine with Neptune in Pisces, which can open up portals to the ethereal, as well as give us an imaginative boost for the day. Things that are hidden may whisper to us, as the moon in Scorpio represents what we cannot see with our tiny human eyes. We may need to be reminded to not get lost in our emotions or be overstimulated by how things feel; Neptunian and lunar energy commingling can sweep us out of the 3D and cause us to feel distracted. 

For Wednesday, December 21 

At around 1:56 pm the sun goes into Capricorn, shifting the energy from jovial but restless sagittarius to somber and results-driven Capricorn. The sun is Squaring Neptune (even though it’s quite a wide orb, and as an aspect it is passing steadily) which puts us into a need to synthesize more of who we are with the reality of our self expression as it is. We may feel as though we’re not doing enough to really “put ourselves out there”, and with the added Capricorn sun energy at 0 degrees in the afternoon, the pressure may temporarily feel increased: to be recognized in some way, or to be putting more effort into whatever it is we’re feeling called to do. 

And that's in addition to Jupiter and Saturn!

Imagine what I could see with a telescope, or even binoculars! Or if I didn't live in a city of over 1 million people with a fuckton of light pollution!!!
