ABUNDANCE ... COMFORT ... DEVOTION ... APPRECIATION !!!

Jupiter, the planet symbolizing growth, expansion, laws, beliefs, ethics, opportunity, wealth and faith began its transit through the sign of Taurus today, June 4th, at 9:56 AM EDT … this Jupiter is all about manifesting things … it values money, possessions, physical gratification and beauty … there is usually a very deep appreciation of sensual pleasures … beliefs often center around being practical and the material world … one may spend a lot of their money and income on books, seminars, the search for knowledge and the collection of art objects … one needs to be careful about putting too much importance on possessions or gratifications … trust is usually placed in what is safe, secure and familiar … one may idealize enjoyment, finances, ownership or perhaps strengthen their faith and trust in life through contact with nature and simple pleasures … growth is achieved through being steady and reliable …

Jupiter in Taurus makes one very much at home with financial dealings and very adept at investments and finance … one may do well in working in their own business or working with other people’s money … this energy may produce one who becomes a stockbroker, banker, or one who deals in any field that requires patience and structure …positively used, there is the ability to develop a deep understanding of the true value of life … one truly enjoys the luxuries money can buy as well … this energy also tends to make one quietly stubborn with an intense dislike of being pushed too hard … in addition, there is found concern with justice and orthodox religion … if not careful with this energy, one can become the victim of their expensive tastes leading to over-indulgence, laziness and indebtedness ...

Jupiter in Taurus is all about growth through being stabilized … there is usually the ability to attract wealth in some way or other … but if not careful one may end up amassing wealth and accumulating material things and then wallowing in it and somehow losing everything or losing control of it … one must remember the Law of Infinite supply which states that in order to maintain wealth one must invest what one has in helping to further others … eventually one may come to realize that a sense of wealth rather than the wealth itself is all that really matters … this energy likes the good things of life, being the provider, material wealth, traditional values and warmth and comfort … it dislikes bare existence, wastefulness, being in debt, scarcity … the energy of Jupiter in Taurus can be expressed in the following ways :

POSITIVE: sound judgment, contemplative, practical philosopher, comfortable, gives stability, steady progress, trusting, jovial, good-humored, generous, good appetite, affluent, money wise, charitable

NEGATIVE: self-opinionated, too cautious, smug, expects too much ease, stick-in-the-mud, cynical, irresponsible, wasteful, gluttonous, greedy, penny-pincher, exploitive, overly status – conscious

Jupiter remains in the sign of Taurus until June 11th, 2012 … Taurus born, this is your time, for the next 12 months, where you may discover an extra chance for opportunity, growth and just plain luck coming your way so keep your eyes and ears open … hopefully the expansion will not be all in your waistline !!! … we all will have the opportunity to manifest more on the material level over the next year … just make sure to appreciate it for what it is and not flaunt it at others … and ultimately when we are devoted, kind and use sound judgment, and realize that there is much more to life than we know about, we will all be that much better off !!!
