By Jove in 2010

A Journey Round My Skull

Jupiter, the officially most lucky planet of all, usually keeps pretty regular cycles. For ages now, he has whizzed into a new sign around about Jan/Feb and stayed there for the year. It’s gotten so i think of particular years in terms of where Jupiter was that year. The Chinese Horoscopes coincide with it – eg; Many a Tiger has Jupiter in Pisces. Snakes are Jupiter in Taurus peeps. And so on.

But Jupiter goes a.w.o.l. in 2010 – whizzing through the first two thirds of Pisces with alacrity and straight into a severely sensational conjunction with Uranus at Zero Degrees of Aries. This is major for many a reason. I go on about it in my book & I will go on about it here as well. But what’s interesting is that Jupiter covers one whole sign (Pisces) by late May and then into Aries and then back.

Why is this significant?

Jupiter is awesome. He’s a.k.a. Zeus, King of the Gods. Ancient astrologers called him the Greater Benefactor. Even astronomers admit the planet Jupiter (a.k.a Jove) plays a significant role in protecting Earth, helping to bounce dodgy/scary asteroids from our galaxy. And it is very rare that Jupiter winds up traversing one 10 degree bit of our Zodiac for ten months.  There are 360 degrees. Jupiter usually covers 30 degrees in a year. Not to mention that it’s the part of the Zodiac where it ENDS and where it STARTS.

The timeframe is from April 2010 until Feb 2011. It’s good to be aware of where this is in your chart as it’s where the main (and rare) chance is to be found. Angelic, profitable…where you both show and expect largesse.

I’m looking forward to it HEAPS as Jupiter will be going back and forth across my Venus, Sun and asteroid Psyche….AND actually, even though Jupiter does not exactly oppose Saturn when it goes back into Virgo in April – it will nonetheless ameloriate the austerity. I am going to be following Jupiter like mad in this time – like it’s a racehorse or a lucky star – because it IS.

Late May and the first week of JUNE – when Jupiter approaches Uranus – is especially auspicious, drastic and dramatic. Pantheistic, global developments for the greater good  that kill off vested interests who don’t give a merde about pollution, starvation, iatrogenesis…? It would be fab, as we then move into a stunning Uranus-Pluto-Saturn T-square situation:  better to act to clean up under the Jupiter influence than to leave it ‘to soak’.

Geopolitics aside, the Jupiter cycle from April 2010 to Feb 2011 is your own personal Jesus-Isis-Miracle moment. Astro-Fiends can do it for themselves – look to your chart between 23 Pisces and 3 Aries. Never mind any aspects other than conjunctions.  If you don’t wanna figure it out for yourself, you can get help in the comments stream if you’re lucky (and Jupiter is) or it is included in my Serendipity Cosmic Consult.

    I’ve had experience with Jupiter’s beneficence.
    It is said he will use some friend of yours to contact you.
    And you may be surprised who turns out to be your friend
    I would add….
    All the other Gods often look at what he does and do not
    really approve- it’s just too wild… He just looks at them and
    does it anyway….
    It is interesting. Have to watch who you run into on those days–

    i have sun conjunct mercury at 24 degrees of pisces (also making shed loads of aspects to other planets) … it’s a major drag and is something i’m really self conscious about. (i used to be a trainer but i got sick of the sound of my own voice) so fingers crossed this jupiter action means it’s finally gonna be something that works in my favour. oh and my middle name is actually isis, by lovely coincidence.

    My natal Jupiter is at 28 Pisces so I guess I’m going to have three Jupiter returns, then?? When it’s all over, do you stick with the final one?

    Reply

    1. Sweetpea’s avatar

      Sounds like a wonderful time to have a Jupiter return Anon.

      What I’ve understood is that one is working with the transit and it’s themes the first two retrograde hits and then when the planet goes direct the last time it wraps things up, finalizes, resolves, etc, etc.

      Was just investigating my Solar Retrun for next yr. Apr. 1st. Trans. Jupiter will not be close to Aries Mercury yet @ 5 degs., but will eventually hover nearby along with Uranus.

      Am particularly pleased that the Solar Return shows a loaded 9th house that is perfect for finalizing my book gig. Aries Mercury is on the MC exact conj. the Sun 9th house side.

      Kim Falconer’s site has a lot of info on Returns and I think in her Returns thread the “several hits” may be addressed from one of the forumites.

      Good luck but you might not need much!

      How sweet is that spirit? Seems when there was a thread on Nicole Kidman was determined that Jupiter at her midheaven hasn’t hurt her. Prince William has it in a wide conj. to his MC as well I believe. Maybe why he has a better chance of being King?

      Your post though just jogged me to take another peek at my Jupiter Return I’d had in 2006. Jupiter returns to it’s natal position around every 12 years and so covers that time span (another 12 years).

      What I found out, is that in my Jupiter Return I have Pisces NN @ 23 degrees 12th house & Aries Asc. 3 degrees so perfect for a new stimulation from the Trans. Uranus and Jupiter retroing back and forth for awhile.

      I love Returns. They have always worked for me.

          me too, on my mid heaven, and part of fortune, and along with lots of other happy planets.

            and he goes retro in sep 2011 at 10 degrees, direct in dec at 0 – and then into gem june 2012.
            I get him bouncing btw my chiron/eros conj and my jupiter in that retro direct thing – in my nerd house. sounds fun. my phd will be due in there.

          2. scorpalicious robot’s avatar

            with Jupes in Taurus on your mid heaven – lucky with your looks? I’ve got Jupiter in 4th house, so luck with real estate. As long as i can remember, my biggest dream was to have my own home, and when i was 28 my dad gave me a substantial deposit to buy my first apartment. This was back in 1991, so well before the housing boom.

            Oh, i do recall now that Mystic mentioned (in my Cosmic consult) that something big was going to happen in June 2010. Jupiter goes into Taurus on the 5th June. I think mine’s work related. Yeah bring it on!

            :lol: Where’s your nerd house – 3rd or 11th?

          3. shell’s avatar

            ah – nerd house is 9th (higher learning angle). jupiter, south node, part of fortune in taurus, and chiron, lillith, eros in aries all hang out there. never thought of mid heaven as looks – but how you put yourself forward i guess so maybe. merc and venus in 10th in taurus. people do seem to assume i know more than i do – which can work against me in a number of ways – but its pretty easy to sound like i know what i’m talking about (gem/leo may help with that)
            jupiter in 5th would be great – go the creativity.

        2. Sweetpea’s avatar

          Yes. Then when you have the date when it hits your Jupiter, make a new chart at Astrodienst and play/tweak with the hour, minute, seconds until you match your birth degree exact. It must be exact as just seconds can change the Ascendant of your return.

          Also, I personally prefer to use my birth place for all my return charts. Some don’t but that’s whats been accurate for me. Obviously Astrodienst already has the Solar Return chart available on the drop down menu. The others take a little bit more time and work.

    I got nothing in that neck of the woods, but at least it is my 7th House. Hey maybe it will work out well for me. This year Jupiter ran over my Natal Aqua Venus three times and, despite all the indications of a lucky year, not one of those potential wins paid off. Was indeed Blandsville and bad-luck all round.

    Not dissing your interping Mystic, have no doubt your transit will rock, I’m just whinging that my apparent Venus luck binge paid little dividend. Possibly due to good old Saturn returning and transiting Moon-Mars at the same time… Stalemate…

        Yeah shouldn’t sound so huffy should I… But in truth, I’ve had far more creative years. Hell, I kept my job and made a profit in a year when many arts-workers didn’t. It wasn’t bad.
        In fact – total liar – I got a scholarship to travel Germany next year on THE DAY Jupiter sat on Venus for the second time – it’s just I consider that something I EARNED rather than WON. Grinchy Cap Syndrome.

          oh Lex, I understand that whole “EARNED” bit, having a Cap rising. Peeps will often say “you’re so lucky” and say “I bloody worked my arse off to get to where I am. Luck had nothing to do with it!!”

          Having said that, i do actually feel quite lucky now with Jupiter sitting on my Saturn in Aqua in 2nd house – FINALLY i don’t have to struggle to pay the bills and I get a break from the usual hard slog and more importantly, I feel like i DESERVE it (that goes with the whole 2nd house territory). Mystic said Jupiter on Saturn is like a magic wand – so true!
          So i’m throughly enjoying this transit while it lasts.

          What house is your Saturn in?

    No planetary or asteroid action (that I am aware of), but this transits over my 12th house where it moves from Pisces into Aries. If I can finalise some destructive habits by working out what is happening in my subconscious I would be stoked.
    I guess I shall just keep on trusting my unconscious and intuitive side? I’ll have some major luck by doing so?
    So confused…

    All twelfth house natal… lots of introspection, dumping excess baggage, day dreaming and soul searching?
    On the other hand, it’s the 7th house in my solar chart – and a Romance would not go astray…

    Any other interpretations? No planets or conjunctions as far as I can see…

      hey mina, that list kind needs sign and house positions for people to be able to rattle off much without going to look up your chart first.
      If you are after some general info – astrodienst is great. load up your details, pull your chart, and then go through the astro click interactive thingy – its very user friendly. cafeastrology is cool too – and has a bit on predicative astro that will tell you stuff about jupiter return i assume.
