Yummy Yummy, On May 17th in Australia at 3.19 am and May 16th at 1.19 pm US EDT, our planet of abundance, growth, hope and opportunity move out of fiery Aries into the earthly and grounded sign of Taurus where it will stay until May 25th 2024. It's time to hug some trees and find your spiritual connection with nature.
Jupiter moving through our chart, highlights areas in which we are ripe for growth, positive opportunities, and joy if we are willing to seize it. Look to see where the sign of Taurus falls in your chart to see which area of your life will be touched for the next 12 months by this planet of potential abundance.
Jupiter moving in Taurus will be a very welcome reprieve for anyone with strong Taurus in the chart or indeed our fixed signs of Scorpio, Leo and Aquarius, as we have had some challenging aspects to Taurus and the fixed signs over the last few years.
Depending on your chart, this period may offer new opportunities and rewards for the hard work endured over the last couple of years. This is not to say it is all over for Taurus; we still have Uranus in this sign, shaking up our financial foundations and ensuring that the possible rigidity that Taurus can sometimes be, is shaken up a little and pushed to more authenticity.
With Jupiter moving throughout Taurus now, we have opportunity to solidly build on the ideas and inspirations we may have been cooking while Jupiter was in Aries. The following 12 months allow us to solidify our goals, build on what we may have started with Jupiter in Aries and develop the patience and solidarity to endure.
Growth will come from learning how to harness the gifts of the material and physical worlds and align them with sensory gratification. We can improve ourselves now by being productive and reliable and finding time and space for simplicity and peace.
As an earth sign, Taurus is all about the practical realities of our existence. Taurus is a very pragmatic and realistic sign, and Jupiter here can clarify how we seek to achieve our goals, especially our materially focused goals. There is much potential here in learning how to be committed and resourceful in life, which will go a long way towards growth and prosperity here. Jupiter here offers excellent potential for financial magic; this is a great time for learning how to make money grow.
Growth comes from harnessing Taurean principles of slow and steady wins the race. Growth also comes from developing a positive sense of self-value and self-esteem.
This can be linked to our many toys, so we must carefully find our self-worth without dependence on material trappings.
One risk of Jupiter’s transit through Taurus is to overdo everything associated with the material world and our sensory selves. Delving into feeding our senses via smell, touch taste sound and sight are all beautiful ways to embrace this transit, but we also need to watch any tendency to overdo things in a possible hedonistic way.
Recharging the soul, especially with the gifts of nature, is one of Jupiter's best gifts and should be harnessed as much as possible. Focusing on using our hands, and our senses, being in connection with nature and getting our hands into the dirt are beautiful ways this lovely transit can be embraced.
Much can be learned from this period in seeking time out, finding peace, serenity, and a connection to spirit in nature.
