On October 11, 2017 Jupiter – the planet of expansion, growth, commerce, finances, religion, legal issues, the courts and arbitration – moves to Scorpio and from then until November 8, 2018 will have some influence on trends and events related to debt, death and taxes.
Debt – ruled by Saturn and house 8 – is a major world problem and Jupiter in Scorpio will see moves to tackle the debt burden and for some countries debt forgiveness.
Death – ruled by house 8 – is an ethics-religious issue and Jupiter in Scorpio will see moves to legalize assisted dying and voluntary assisted dying.
And taxes – ruled by house 8 – are always a contentious issue and Jupiter in Scorpio will see a trend towards higher taxes, corporate tax evasion and new laws in regard to inheritance taxes and death duties.
Jupiter and you
Jupiter’s transit of Scorpio will have no influence on you personally. Its influence is strictly global and primarily relates to revenue raising and debt and death issues.
But Jupiter in your birthchart does provide valuable information that you need to know about.
It reveals, by its house position and aspects, the strength of your religious urge and the area of your life where there is good fortune and plenty.
Jupiter is the planet of abundance, optimism and joviality and major events involving these matters only occur when Jupiter is activated by progression.
You have a birth chart and what’s currently taking place in your life and what’s on your mind is primarily influenced by the major progressed aspects in your chart and your local environment.
Transit Jupiter in your chart by its house position and aspects to birthchart and progressed planets has an inconsequential influence on your life.
Note
Trends and events related to Jupiter’s transit of Scorpio will be more evident when Jupiter forms an aspect in the sky.
