Whilst Jupiter is in Scorpio it will have an effect on each Zodiac House depending where it is in your own Chart. Its impact will be determined by the “realm” that the House rules (See the post “Zodiac House Domains” — in the September archive), whether there are any Planets within the House or opposite it, and the aspects between said Planets and/or any other Planets that Jupiter in Scorpio might influence within other areas of your Chart. Jupiter in Scorpio will bring a surge of new positive energy into the Cosmos with an agenda of renewal and transformation — it is up to each of us to find how, where and why our lives are being fine-tuned by this majestic pairing. Standing still is not an option when this combination decides to offer a new way of thinking. We will have to acknowledge what the Universe has in store for us, as we continue on our journey here on Earth.
First Zodiac House (Ascendant) — when Jupiter in Scorpio begins to influence one’s First House it is the beginning of a new 12 year Jupiterian cycle for these lucky folks. As each year passes, Jupiter will enter each House in turn for approximately a one year stay working its way through the entire Zodiac Chart. The First House has rulership over our hopes and dreams, our pet projects, and our leadership qualities. Jupiter in Scorpio will bring new interesting people into your realm and you do best finding a way to incorporate those you meet into your life as befits your interests.
Opposite the 7th House of partners, allies and also competitors, it will serve you well to see clearly those with whom you truly enjoy and are compatible with, in order to be discreet in your business and personal dealings. You might be thinking of changing some of those you are currently in contact with through your work. Take your time in eliminating anyone, however, it you feel it is a toxic relationship — by all means cut it loose.
Use this time span with Jupiter in Scorpio to fine tune your plans, eliminate anything you know is holding you back — and feel the depth of Jupiter’s instincts in helping you to improve your life while it’s in Scorpio. You may look back at the end of this year of Jupiter in Scorpio’s transit, and think, “It’s amazing — how far I have come!”
Second Zodiac House — If Jupiter in Scorpio is visiting your Second Zodiac House, you may be in for some financial gain over the period of this year. Our Second House rules our earned income, but also any monies from inheritance, gifts and bonuses. Jupiter in Scorpio will bring opportunities to increase your money in various ways, your own earnings may increase, you may find some hidden treasures in your home that you can sell, and/or you may find an entirely new way of handling your income. It will behoove you to take care of all financial matters in a professional way, protect your interests, and be sure you know those with whom you trust with your valuables.
Another way you may increase your bottom-line is by paying off debts in an orderly manner, with “found” monies from previously untapped sources. With Scorpio in the mix, we must look beneath the surface to find ways in which to bolster our income in new and creative ways. Jupiter in Scorpio will bring some perhaps over-the-top methods for us to make more money — just be sure everything is above board and not a get-rich-quick-scheme!
Opposite the Eighth House of other peoples money, death and taxes, and renewal and regeneration, you may be in for a windfall or perhaps a sentimental keepsake from a beloved relative. Either way — you can find extra income with a little bit of work. Keep aware of all the ways in which the Universe is presenting you with opportunities. There may be something magical involved!
Third Zodiac House — Our Third Zodiac House holds some of our closest relatives, neighbors and social connections. It’s our local area, our community, town or city, it’s where we feel at home with others of our ilk. We find our casual acquaintances, aunts and uncles, and brothers and sisters herein. When we plan short journeys or trips, this is the area that connects with that objective, also it is here where we can keep in touch with distant relatives by writing notes and cards to keep that familial connection. (Yes folks, actually taking pen to paper — putting your heart and soul into your writing, to let others know your truest feelings.)
If we are socially-minded, we may seek out local town offices as a way to keep our town running smoothly, or we may volunteer at local shelters or food pantries in order to help our neighbors in need. It is here we commune with our neighbors, especially those older citizens who might need to be checked on from time to time. Here we place our roots in what we consider a protected place — where we can raise our children in a surrounding of caring folks. We want to protect our environment in order to insure that we can live in peace and harmony.
Opposite the Ninth Zodiac House of justice, higher education, long journeys, religion and ideals — we build on the foundations of our Third House — the foundations of our future, we begin to see and feel our destiny, and there is a glimmer of what our life can become. Jupiter in Scorpio will bring renewal and growth, improve relationships with close relatives and friends, and open the door to new opportunities from which we can plan ahead with confidence and self-reliance.
The Fourth Zodiac House — Here we find our first encounters with our parents, siblings grandparents and other relations who are of great importance in nurturing our life. It is the foundation of our lives, our first home and the basis upon which we begin to fashion our outlook on what our life will be. Being loved and loving in return, will bring us to the realization that we are of importance, that we matter to those who love us. Our existence is an intricate part of the whole picture of humanity and its future evolution.
It is within this House that we begin to learn the tenets of our faith, our moral code and those basic lessons of what living a good life as an empathetic human being entails. We are honed by the gentle care and kindnesses shown to us as an infant, and later as we learn about our family, we begin to understand and honor those who have come before us. Opposite the Tenth Zodiac House, there may be a job change in your future, however, it should be a positive move. Also, you may be invited to join an exclusive club where you can network with others of your abilities. Keep in mind — that we are not our jobs — it is just what we do! The bottom-line in this pathway on Earth is Karmic in nature — and our Karma lies within our family circle. (Of course, our family circle can consist of any group that we consider kindred.) It’s our relationships that will ultimately be the guiding light of our life.
Jupiter in Scorpio will bring out any hidden secrets that may have been hidden, but also will enable you to find your own innate persona. You might also find you are going to move from your family home to create one of your own.Or if you are already established in your own abode, this transit of Jupiter may find you upgrading to a larger home, remodeling one, or buying a second vacation home (especially near water).
In the Fourth House Jupiter in Scorpio can assist you in beginning new projects, saving for future prospects, combining your community activity with your family interests. The best is yet to come this year with Jupiter in Scorpio in your corner, opportunities will appear as if by magic, and your past hard work will be appreciated and rewarded.
