!This fortunate transit occurs once in the twelve-year cycle of Jupiter and should bring a general rise in life, financial gain, some social distinction, many new friends and much social activity. It is a time of optimism, greater self-confidence, good self-expression and happiness. Opportunities for social prestige, financial advancement and foreign travel are likely at this time. Relationships are especially favored and engagement or marriage is possible under this aspect. Your openness to new spiritual understanding may attract into your life those who will expand your awareness in some way. It is an excellent period for study and personal growth. Social success or wealth may be achieved during this aspect. There can also be is a sense of spiritual renewal, where you make efforts at religious, educational, philosophic, and cultural self- improvement. However, a self-righteous attitude should be avoided at this time. There can be a tendency to put on excess weight during this transit.

+You will benefit from taking a more inward direction, turning away from the outward world a bit and allowing new ideas and information to filter through. A career point, after which you should let go a bit and expect a little regeneration.

*You feel confident, optimistic, and have faith in yourself to be able to come forth and be successful. You project yourself with confidence at this time, and you receive a welcome response from others.

You may find yourself spinning your wheels, simply because circumstances are such that you have too many desires and not enough outlets or energy to obtain them. Sexual energy is variable, and adventurousness in general is felt. However, be aware that you will have a tendency to overestimate your abilities. Be cautious with regard to putting yourself at physical risk, as accidents are more likely at this time. Avoid the tendency to boast or to come on too strong, as you may end up rubbing important people in your life the wrong way.

*A project or interest of yours comes to a critical culmination at this time. If you are employed there is an excellent possibility of receiving a raise. If you are self-employed, you may win a contract or a new opportunity may open up for you at this time

You are very creative, and your social life is activated or enhanced. Jupiter is acting to expand your desire for pleasure, romance, and material goods as well. This is a favorable time to start a new endeavor, especially one that is intended for profit (unless, of course, there are other serious afflictions). This is also a favorable time to start a new relationship. The only potential problem associated with this transit is the tendency to be a little too carefree and to pass opportunities away with an overly optimistic attitude. Keep your eyes open to potential opportunities.

Jupiter is in my twelfth house, going to cross my ascendant and then be in my first house until 2009.

Jupiter Transits the Twelfth House

Jupiter transits your twelfth house, benefiting activities that take place "behind the scenes" or otherwise privately. This is a cycle in which you become more compassionate, empathetic, and sensitive. Jupiter in the twelfth house is said to offer one spiritual protection. It's a cycle in which you can rid yourself of self-destructive tendencies, deep-seated fears, and deeply-ingrained tendencies towards guilty feelings, acting much like a guardian angel. You are more able to get in touch with your subconscious mind. Charity, giving anonymously, contributing to altruistic endeavors, volunteering, and helping others without expectation of reward will be most fulfilling during this cycle. Work that involves serving others may begin now and bring you much joy. Your dreaming world may be rich, lighter, helpful, and more intuitive. Meditation and retreats may be particularly beneficial to you now, acting to regenerate and invigorate you. You may pick up metaphysical studies, dream interpretation, or research during this cycle. Some people enter into a private romance during this cycle. In general, help seems to be there when you need it. You are building your faith now. This is a time of spiritual renewal

Jupiter Transits the First House  

At the beginning of its transit through the first house, Jupiter is conjunct your Ascendant, marking a time of much optimism and cheerfulness. Throughout its journey through the first house, Jupiter's transit brings noticeable improvements to your environment as well as self-confidence to your personality. You are more obviously expansive, exuberant, and enthusiastic. This transit heightens your optimism and increases your generosity. This cycle has the potential for being a relaxed, fortunate, and hopeful time. You are greeting life with a fresh, can-do attitude. What happened in the past is not very important to you now--it's the future that you're eyeing now. You are filled with faith in the universe--faith that everything will work out. This is an excellent period for self-improvement. Dealings with the public are favored, and others tend to look at you as a leader. Events occur that help you overcome problems that previously seemed challenging or even insurmountable--you have an altogether different perspective on life now, and are not inclined much to sweat the small stuff. You want to create a distinct first impression on others, and you tend to do just that. Furthering your personal ambitions and interests comes more easily during this cycle. At times, you may feel like the sky is the limit! You feel considerably more free to be yourself, and others tend to accept you more readily. You might need to guard against becoming too full of yourself or overly self-interested, however. There is also a risk of overindulgence and other forms of extreme behavior. Weight gain is often associated with this transit. Be careful that a carefree attitude doesn't end up a careless one. Particularly if Jupiter's transit trines planets in the fifth and/or ninth, this is a favorable time for creative matters, romance, travel, and higher education.

Jupiter Retrograde 2008 - May 9 through Sept 8th Time to get back to the gym.

Saturn just sent ripples in your life by going direct, but another major wave of change is coming on May 9 when Jupiter turns retrograde. Jupiter is the planet of luck, grace, favor and fortune. Jupiter brings wealth, abundance, and optimism. Our successes, accomplishments and prosperity are all within the realm of the grace this large planet bestows upon us. However, when Jupiter turns retrograde, our forward momentum is reversed. This period is not a good time to start new ventures, make financial investments or even change jobs for that matter. Rather, it is a time to finish projects, an excellent time to pay attention to relationships, as well a time to gain a better perspective on life and our inner self. The major emphasis of a Jupiter retrograde period is on inner awareness and inner growth.
