| Jupiter drives into Scorpio Territory
Jupiter is packing his bags. He's moving on to Scorpio territory on the 25th of October (2005) for a 13 month sojourn. Scorpio is a Fixed Water sign and capable of transforming perspectives with intense effects. Jupiter by nature likes to expand, exaggerate and swell situations. This can be beneficial or detrimental, depending on how the scenario is set up and how the individual reacts to that setting.
As Jupiter flows through Scorpio, the mysteries of life, the taboos of existence and the unresolved psychological ambiguities that we deal with every day may be tamed or become an uncontrolled beast. Jealousy and envy are traits that are easily manifested while Jupiter slips through Scorpio. We are not likely to just brush aside a question when the answer seems too complex. We want to know the Whys and the Why Nots. Interrogation and analysis take on a whole new definition. Investigating the occult and the "unknown" also takes on new significance.
Now that Scorpio is home for Jupiter for a year, financial matters involving loans, legacies, and shared resources will also take precedence. While it might be easier to turn to someone else to support our ever expanding debts, prudence is necessary. Finding ways to control aggressive possibilities and turning them into constructive and practical resources is one tactic to putting Jupiter to work productively.
Dealing with the influence of Fixed Water could be compared to working with dry ice - it is so cold that it burns - requiring protective gear normally used to handle fire. The nature of Scorpio is not easily understood. There is nothing simple about the intense complexity of Scorpio. At the same time, it sparks an interest within us to find meaning through the intricacy, hoping for a better understanding of our "being," our mortality, and beyond. Many individuals are likely to be drawn into the exploration of all those topics that they were too afraid to ask about, until now.
And how Jupiter's stay in Scorpio is likely to impact the various signs.....
Aries -
Scorpio represents your eighth house of joint finances, regeneration and renovation. Your odds of dealing with matters involving debts, taxes, reclaimed finances and money received from others is increased. The prospect for increasing your income is improved through partnerships and extended family members. Avoid any inclination of impudence in your financial picture. Creative money management should remain on the up and up. Your sensuality may be elevated and sexuality may potentially take you down paths you never thought to take before. Have fun exploring your options, but remember that discretion is your friend for a reason.
Taurus -
Scorpio represents your seventh house of harmony and equal partnerships of all types. This year, you will be inclined to form connections with peers and allies. You may find that you have a knack for getting the best, or the worst, out of others. You may also feel tested by the outside world as relationships manifest. Do not be afraid to check out your options or hire an attorney to read the fine-print if you decide to form a partnership. There is also the potential for conflicts to come out into the open and evolving into legal matters. You will know who your enemies are. Don't dwell on trying to win them over. Finding a sense of satisfaction by compromising is most likely to result in that quest for harmony.
Gemini -
Scorpio represents your sixth house of health, work environments and judgment. Better health is yours for the choosing. Become more conscious of what you ingest on a daily basis and how much you exercise. Caring for a small pet could enhance your health and feelings of well-being. Happiness is also possible in your work place as you discover more about yourself in your job. The role you take on at work should not be over or under estimated. Being efficient in your responsibilities will be to your benefit. Taking a little extra time to organize your workspace now will make it easier as the year progresses. Be careful not to micromanage your tasks. On the other hand, if you snooze, you lose.
Cancer -
Scorpio represents your fifth house of love, creativity and children. The life of the good little Crab is going to be rewarded this year. Jupiter in Scorpio tends to boost your love life and courtship. You are more likely to take a risks with creativity, love and matters involving children. This willingness to take the risk is most likely to be rewarded if you don't go crazy in your speculations. As Martha Stewart would say, "And that's a good thing!" Be prepared to give and receive love in your life this year.
Leo -
Scorpio represents your fourth house of family ties, childhood memories and emotions. A peaceful and contented home life will feel more important this year. You may strive to create more activities that help with family bonding, spruce up the house, or help you to balance family matters with your career. It is common to improve your living conditions while Jupiter is in Scorpio. Take care of matters involving your stomach. Your waistline could expand this year as you are inclined towards eating more comfort foods. Matters involving your parents are likely to occur as the year progresses on.
Virgo -
Scorpio represents your third house of communication, learning and neighbors. You may need to travel more to broaden your circle of friends and network while developing new skills for your job. Siblings and neighbors take on a new role in your life this year. You will feel busier than ever as you try to work with all the new resources and assimilate the wealth of information that seemingly arrives when you need it the most. Remember to acknowledge all your resources and do not get careless or rude in your interactions with others. Now is the time to walk the talk with integrity and truth.
Libra -
Scorpio represents your second house of material objects, values and self-worth. Jupiter in Scorpio is typically a year of building up your resources. Your values could change drastically, particularly if you discover during this time that your identification is no longer connected with the materials you possess. Some of you may feel that getting rich is the most important issue while others of you may feel that money is getting in the way of your self-preservation. The focus becomes the tangibles and pleasures in life. Are they defining you or swallowing you alive? To thine own self be true.
Scorpio -
Jupiter in your sign represents your first house of outward appearances. Your charisma swells, as Jupiter's procession swaggers into your very own sign. Your individuality is accentuated and you also become more conscientious about another's perceptions of you. Your appearance and health will take on new significance this year. You will be in a search for enjoyment, improvement, and/or attention. In your quest for self-satisfaction, you may over indulge, over eat, and/or your pursuit for sexual satisfaction may propagate beyond control. The key terms here are "Control" and "Moderation."
Sagittarius -
Scorpio represents your twelfth house of unknown secrets, behind the scenes activities and subconscious inclinations. Since Jupiter is your sign's ruler, you are more likely to do well in behind-the-scene matters or projects that require isolated activity. Solutions may be found more readily through charitable organizations, hospitals or other large institutions. You may feel inclined to help those who are less fortunate than yourself, either on a financial level or in person as you care for others by giving of your time. The benefits may not be obvious initially, but your spiritual nature is likely to expand and become inspirational to others. Your creativity may also become a resource to develop.
Capricorn -
Scorpio represents your eleventh house of associations and aspirations. The next year is full of hopes, dreams and wishes for you. Projects developed last year as a result of your career are more likely to come to fruition while friends and associates rally to the cause. Watch out for the occasional leech who tries to suck all the life out of your accomplishments. You are likely to benefit from joining organizations or clubs that reinforce your ideals. You might also find that you are doing more with/or other people's children during the next year. Follow-through on your commitments and karma will play nicely with you.
Aquarius -
Scorpio represents your tenth house of social status and career. Authority takes on a new level of importance. Working within the functions of power is your opportunity to find fame and fortune. Become attentive to your image and profession while the universe works with you. Your talents shine and will draw others' attention to your capabilities. If you have been diligent and conscientious up to now, then positions involving power and trust are more inclined to drop into your lap. If you have earned the good fortune, it is most likely to be realized now. Rising to the top could be just as easily lost if your integrity is suspect. Jupiter has a way of magnifying the errors of judgment.
Pisces -
Scorpio represents your ninth house of self-realization, travel and education. Jupiter stimulates your confidence, helping to expose your kindheartedness. Exploration of the truth is productive this year. An expansion of the consciousness is met with growth and feelings of personal accomplishment. Legal proceedings could be your stumbling block while a reawakening of your spiritual side will take you on new adventures. Cultural impartiality provides new opportunities that otherwise would not be revealed. Jupiter is directing the mind toward knowledge and interpreting symbolic signals.
