A Cosmic Kiss from Jupiter to Scorpio

"Jupiter’s transit through intense and passionate Scorpio urges us to go after our hearts’ desires. As Jupiter moves through Scorpio, we learn and understand that in order to heal, we have to cut out the fluff and focus on what really matters to us. Because Jupiter’s nature is extravagant, we must guard against “too much.” Moderation doesn’t come naturally to either Jupiter or Scorpio."    -Cafe Astrology

From October 10, 2017 to November 8, 2018, we all will be welcoming the planet of luck and fortune, Jupiter, moving into the sign of Scorpio. Mystery, intuition, sexuality, introspection and excess all characterize Scorpio's place in the zodiac. For all sun born Scorpios this is your year. For the rest of us who may have a natal planet in Scorpio, we will find more blessings in whatever house this beneficent planet graces. But caution is also advised as too much of a good thing is just as stressful as too much of a bad thing.

Scorpios are known to be magnetic but enigmatic. The more one knows them, the more one senses one cannot fully unearth their buried secrets. Like their symbol the Scorpion, they have a nasty sting when one gets too close to the cherished rock under which they live their hidden life. It is no coincidence that cult leaders are associated with Scorpio: they embody a mysterious hypnotic persona, a primal sensuality, and a zealous conviction which makes people want to follow them. 

Scorpio is a water sign; intensity of emotion is its calling card. Having Jupiter in Scorpio suggests we are in for a year of heightened feeling experiences which may leave us feeling thrilled but unsure if we should trust our judgment. Their may be an air of uncertainty fueled by an uncanny sense that something is being withheld. Know that with Scorpio, you will rarely see the whole picture. 

The positive aspects of Jupiter's ingress into Scorpio is an expansion of options when dealing with what has been stuck or in a rut. This is especially true of issues pertaining to love, sexuality, and relationships of any sort. Sensibility will be overcome by a passion that resists logic. Sometimes in the game of life we become t0o fixed, staid, and discriminating. Is it all bad that we give this a vacation for a year?

Welcome to Jupiter in Scorpio.
