Good Morning dear Friends and Readers, Mars at 29 degrees Aries was absolutely crazy for me, and for the rest of the country, too. There was a very unexpected adventure with the neighbor’s forklift/backhoe, resulting in no internet right as I was about to begin writing this post. The next day, yesterday, the same neighbor with the same large equipment came to our rescue while the internet guy was here moving the antenna. We had to make a sudden decision to take down a tree, and there he was at the perfect moment to help us. By 3 pm we had internet again, but we are grieving our tree… Mars in Taurus now…and Taurus rules trees.
Anyway, back to this blog…If you have VIRGO rising, then transiting Jupiter in Aquarius will be moving through your 6th house of health, work, and service. The 6th rules employment and co-workers — who you hire and who hires you. It is also the house of physical health, nutrition, hygiene, sanitation. Since the 6th is the natural Virgo house, the Mercury rulership also accents bookkeeping and accounting. Domestic pets are part of the 6th, as are birds in general. Don’t forget all the fabric arts, too, stuff like weaving, beading, quilting, applique, embroidery, etc. A great year to make beautiful things for yourself or as gifts…
A lot of people I’ve talked with are using Jupiter in the 6th to improve their health, starting with better nutrition and the plan to grow more vegetables for themselves. In general, this transit can bring you excellent medical care, whether you need to change doctors or not, or maybe you find a specialist. Since Saturn is also in Aquarius, take especially good care of bones, joints, and teeth, and REALLY be protective of your knees, lower legs, and ankles!! Depending on where you live, winter can be tricky — ice, ice under snow, even wet pavement can be slippery. Wear the right shoes for the weather!!
Most people with Jupiter in their 6th will get a raise or a positive increase in employment. You will probably have all the work you can handle and then some…ie. the expansionary nature of Jupiter. Saturn, too can bring extra responsibility. I know someone with this position and all of the above has just happened to her. First a raise, then the realization that she would soon be working a lot of extra hours due to a co-worker leaving. If you need to change jobs or get a better job, Jupiter can help you accomplish this. There could even be a situation where your employer pays for classes or training.
The use of gadgets/electronics/computers should be all about functionality and saving time or in some way making your life be more organized. I’ve seen ads about smart appliances. That might be one example. I don’t feel ready to turn on my oven or start the laundry if I’m away from home, but that might appeal to some people. Just being willing to organize your office or your workshop would be enough to start the luck and expansion flowing in your life :)) I think Mars now in Taurus is saying baby steps WILL lead you to positive changes. The square to the Aquarian planets from Mars means move too fast and you will probably have to backtrack anyway. Mars in Gemini by early March bring trines to Jupiter and Saturn in your 6th — much easier and more fun, too :))
If you have LEO rising, then Jupiter transiting through Aquarius is going through your 7th house of marriage and partnerships. The 7th is a cardinal house so there’s more oomph to this transit. I must tell you that having either Saturn OR Jupiter ( and this year you will have BOTH) entering your 7th can signal either a marriage or a divorce. Let’s say maybe it’s not either one, since I don’t want you to get panicked. Let’s look at it in a more subtle way…the 7th is any important one on one relationship. It can be a love commitment, it could be a business partnership, teacher/student, etc. One way or another, there is change in the most important relationships in your life. Here’s some examples…a young couple might marry but then they have to sort out how much time to spend with each other vs. time with friends, and possibly friends who are still single. So adjustments have to be made. Good communication is essential is healthy relationships. Or maybe you’re with a partner whose employment has been jacked around by the virus. They could get a new job, but it could require a relocation, or some travel on a regular basis. See? More adjustments. If you are almost done raising kids and they are either moving out or moving to a college further from home, you will find this makes a huge change in your marriage or partnership. They call it the empty nest syndrome. Either you and your partner will find new activities or new hobbies to enjoy together, or you find you are in the same house but living more and more separate lives. This kind of change can be tricky to navigate. Either you make the necessary adjustments to keep growing in love or you will drift apart. Marriage counseling can help but the responsibility to communicate honestly and respectfully is on each of you. There is a good website called MarriageBuilders.com. I also recommend watching “Married at First Sight” because the experts are SO good at explaining the work it takes to have a healthy marriage.
I have a client who has Leo Sun and Leo rising with an Aquarius 7th house. He is close to retirement. This is a happily married man who has a lot of hobbies. When you have Jupiter transiting through the 7th, it can mean your luck comes through your partner. He and his wife know what’s coming and they are already talking about what kind of lifestyle will work best for them. Making small changes now to ensure as smooth a transition as possible.
If you have a business partnership with someone, there will probably be unavoidable changes. It could end or it could grow. Maybe your partner wants to sell and you don’t. Maybe your partner has health changes and can’t work as actively at the business (Saturn). It could mean you bring a 3rd person into the business as a compromise. It would be important to have legal papers drawn up and that BOTH of you agree about the 3rd person.
Another possibility is that you, or you and a partner, decide to join some kind of marketing plan, or a co-op or a group. Aquarius rules group activities with a lasting purpose beyond the moment. Be SURE to read ALL the fine print before you commit !! And just to be a little quirky, maybe you and partner believe so strongly in your business and/or your product that you apply to go on Shark Tank and that 3rd person is one of the Sharks who gives you a loan and becomes your mentor !!! Remember, Jupiter is the planet of luck, growth, and expansion. So why not? Saturn says be prepared to work hard to make that big success a reality !!
Ok, I guess I’m done for now….more soon, Jenae
