Peace, love and justice get an accelerated boost of energy with Jupiter’s transit into Libra for the next year, an auspicious time for worldwide political negotiations and harmonious personal relationships. Jupiter illuminates the “bigger picture” and helps align us with our spiritual aspirations. Jupiter’s current Libran entourage includes the sun, Mercury and Mars as well as the new moon on the 13th (that’s a whopping five celestial energies in Libra). Neptune’s sensitizing influence adds a compassionate element to the mix this month, followed by Saturn’s admonition to “get real.” Mercury transits into investigative Scorpio on the 15th, a time for unearthing material and psychological secrets.
If you know your rising sign from your time of birth, read that also.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
If you don’t succumb to a me-versus-we struggle, the new moon along with multiple planets in your opposite sign of Libra will enhance your ability to compromise and assist in improving your primary relationship.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
A burst of Venus energy is ignited by multiple Libra influences, including the new moon, bringing romance and a deeper understanding of day-to-day relationship issues. An urge to assist others and improve your health is indicated as well.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
Romance hits the stratosphere when the new moon joins up with Mercury, Mars and Jupiter in Libra. If unattached, now is the time to be seeking your soul mate, or at least visualizing what you really want in a long-term partner.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
Jupiter and the new moon can bring a family/home-oriented dream-come-true for moonchildren. Mars says it won’t be without some effort (and a bit of strife), so leap over any roadblocks in your way and go for it!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Love letters can lead to a long-term romance (via an online match-up?) during the current Libra influences. The new moon is especially strong for communications. Don’t let a snag in your plans mid month deter you.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Jupiter brings financial blessings for the next year (as well as the urge to spend, spend, spend!). As for this month, look for moneymaking opportunities after the new moon. Saturn may slow you down around the 13th and 20th.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
If you’re not bursting with creativity and going for your dreams, you will be, beginning after this month’s new moon. Now is the time to plan for a big leap in your career and personal life. Listen to your inner voice for direction.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Tumultuous Scorpios gain peace and inner wisdom during Jupiter’s yearlong transit through Libra. This month, be especially receptive to inner direction during the new moon, when a new personal path may open for you.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Your Jupiter ruler in Libra for the next year brings relationship desires and issues into focus and will assist you in manifesting true love (friendships, too). And your sense of justice can lead the way to help those in need.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Jupiter in Libra says it’s time for recognition in your career during the next year, so go for your biggest dreams. Network this month, especially after the new moon. A temporary snafu may slow you down around the 13th and/or 20th.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Sharing your wisdom brings fulfillment for the next year during Jupiter’s transit through Libra, beginning after the new moon this month. Education and travel will play important roles. A long-distance romance may be brewing.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Fish have the opportunity to finally heal old emotional wounds and gain inner strength during Jupiter’s yearlong transit through Libra, beginning after this month’s new moon. More Steamy romance is also Jupiter’s blessing. Enjoy!
