The dense and expansive Jupiter moves into the sign of Aries until May 1st 2024. We can think of Jupiter’s transit in two parts. Jupiter will be enlivening Rahu through, and then from December through the end of February Mars and Jupiter will be in a dynamic exchange. The fire trine is now lit up for 12 months. Self-learning, and self-confidence to go forth combined with a deep desire to create change and carve out the new.
Rahu with Jupiter will open new opportunities, the two will bring great debates between the priest Jupiter and Rahu the rebel. Both are preachers so expect soap box activities to take off. Rahu and Jupiter will nurture the seed you plant in the womb of Aries and its life will spread.
Jupiter will expand our independent thinking, and while connected with Rahu through October it will bring new and unorthodox ideas and creativity. Rahu is a naga the one that awakens other dimensions and feels the pulse of things, it finds its way with a piercing effect.
Saturn throughout will give an aspect onto Aires which is good to keep Rahu and Jupiter in balance. Saturn's aspect is like an irritation, a rock in our shoe nagging at us, reminding us of its presence and our karma.
Jupiter will activate the signs of Leo, Sagittarius and Aries quite prominently. We can get a little inflated with our sense of self, but sometimes we need to get a little inflated to gather the courage to explore new territory, it will feel like exploring our teen years again. Fresh eyes and hearts hungry for experience.
Both Saturn and Jupiter will put a strong emphasis on the sign Leo in all of our charts. The two great teachers want us to improve our grades and bring what we have learned into the world.
Remember:
Rahu is one-pointed
Mars the depositor of Jupiter is one-pointed
Rahu & Jupiter both expand
Make your Mind like a Sword and invest in things that last. Use an unconventional approach and access to the forces around you to get it done this is the energy of Rahu. Don't take no for an answer, challenge the status quo (Mars energy). Be mindful of the blind spots (Mercury Retrograde) and the impossible can be achieved. Remember that it was Rahu who had the ability to see through the trick of Vishu at the churning of the ocean and get himself at Vishnu's feet and become immortal.
Dates to Watch
Jupiter Gandanta until April 26th (unsettled energy)
Jupiter and Rahu exact May 25/26th (high-intensity days)
Retrograde Sept. 3rd -Dec. 30th (Jup. Rx at the same degree as retrograde Mercury in Leo 21° (volatile few days)
Mars and Jupiter in mutual exchange from Dec. 27th - Feb 24th good for Cancer, Pisces, and Sagittarius
Transits of Jupiter will be more pronounced if you are in a Jupiter Dasha period or are a Pisces or Sagittarius ascendant/rising, Moon or Sun sign.
I wish love and luck with the transit of Jupiter in Aries
