Jupiter entering Aries on January 22nd puts this planet of growth and expansion in your solar second house. From January 22nd until June 4th, you are likely to see and enjoy benefits to your earning power and value system. Jupiter in this part of your chart could very well bring a profitable and productive year. You are likely to feel more confident and enthusiastic about your ability to earn a living, and this can help you to attract more income, as long as you are realistic. You might decide to develop your talents during this Jupiter cycle, which in turn boosts your earning power. Your income might increase, and there may be an opportunity to improve your future financial situation. However, you may also be just as inclined to splurge on yourself, opting to plump up your nest or your store of personal possessions in order to feel more secure. Money problems from the past may clear up during this period if you use it appropriately, developing budgets and working out ways to better manage your resources. You may be adding to your possessions, the recipient of some large item or gift, or a major purchase or sale might occur now. A significant gift or bonus may come your way. This is a good time to work with financial institutions, go for a raise, or apply for a loan. You may need to curb an inclination to overspend–feeling good could bring you to the stores as you temporarily forget about the future! You might also be concentrating on increasing your earnings in your career after some years of focusing on honing your personality and networking skills in order to further your career goals. The positive circumstances listed here won`t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.
From June 4th forward, Jupiter is moving through your solar third house. Educational and communication opportunities present themselves. You may increase your knowledge and skills set, and find much enjoyment in so doing. During this long-term trend, neighbors or relatives could be especially helpful in your life. You express your ideas with more enthusiasm and positivity, and they are received well. You are able to comprehend more complicated subjects and problems, and you are able to explain them in such a way that others can readily understand; thus, teaching, authoring, or otherwise delivering information may be prosperous now. Higher level studies, courses, and perhaps some travel opportunities might arise during this cycle. Many of you will benefit from taking courses if you aren`t already doing so, and those already involved in studies will benefit more than usual during this period. You may decide to buy a new car, or transportation opportunities present themselves, making it much easier for you to get from point A to point B. Gifts, benefits, or other opportunities may come through visits, short trips, messages, emails, or they could come through contacts with siblings, classmates, and neighbors. Some sort of positive news or announcement is likely to be part of the picture. If you`re an author, teacher, or other position in communications, you will find more opportunities to advance your trade as your creative juices flow nicely. If you`re a student, school is especially favored. If you`re in business, you are likely to find sales are especially strong. In general, you find much joy in communicating, learning, and socializing. Career focus can be in the communications industry, or your career may necessitate more traveling, writing, or speaking. These positive circumstances won`t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life. The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar third house, from June 4th to August 30th, and then from December 25th forward. (This transit lasts until June 2012).
Jupiter transits sextile your Sun from June 6th forward (until March 2012). This is a feel-good transit that offers you opportunities to rise above petty concerns and to achieve a more balanced approach to your life. Relationships with others tend to be easygoing, friendly, and positive. It`s natural for you to cooperate with others, and others find it easy to cooperate with you! This is a time when you really enjoy life, appreciating the good things and rarely harping on the more inconvenient or annoying elements of life.
