Transiting Jupiter Conjunct Natal Ascendant

We have been reviewing some of the more challenging astrology aspects as of late and thought we would lighten the focus and review a softer and more positive reinforcing aspect.  We will have a look at transiting Jupiter in aspect to the natal Ascendant.  If your Ascendant is around the 20 degree mark of Leo, Jupiter has been in conjunct your Ascendant since early October and will remain in aspect until the end of January of 2015.  It will stay in retrograde motion until it turns direct at 12 degrees of Leo in April of 2015 and then comes back into contact once again on its final pass in June of 2015.

Jupiter is what is referred to as the “feel good” planet and most anything it touches will have a atmosphere of good fortune and optimism attached to it.  When it conjuncts the Ascendant, it often affects your relationships and brings you closer to those that matter in your life.  Even strangers seem to have a profound effect on you as you become more willing to expand your horizons and spread optimism into the world around you.

This transit is very positive for your health and promotes health consciousness (it may however also bring on some weight gain as Jupiter tends to expand everything it touches).  The ascendant is closely linked to your body image and you will have to watch for this potential.  Jupiter helps us fight disease and infection and the body usually grows in strength and endurance especially if Pluto is connected somehow to your ascendant through positive aspect.

In many ways, this is a particularly strong period of growth in the spiritual sense and often with religious overtones.  Life’s philosophy becomes more important and you have a greater yearning for knowledge that exceeds the classroom.  Some experience travel at this time, meeting up with foreigners and learning about foreign cultures and traditions.  The desire for travel is strong during this time and if one is not able to physically travel, you will do so in the mind.  Meditation is a great technique to use as this transit becomes activated as you may discover new dimensions within the framework of your life.  Your view of life should expand during this transit.  After this transit, you may view the world from a different perspective with clearer and more positive insights than you had previous to this period in time.

This transit along with any outer planet crossing over your Ascendant is indicative of a new beginning or new cycle of development and growth through education (either through traditional learned channels or though experience in life).  There is much to be learned during this time and transitions may take place especially if Pluto, Neptune or Uranus are involved in the equation as well.  Enjoy this growth spurt and stay open to change and a new life direction with a more optimistic approach to what might lie ahead.  Be prepared to let go of any disarray that may have been holding you down in the past.
