Okay, let’s dive into this whole “Sun square Jupiter transit” thing. I’ve been fiddling around with astrology for a while now, not really an expert, but I like to track how these planetary movements seem to jive with what’s going on in my life. So, the Sun squaring Jupiter—it’s supposed to be this big, dramatic transit, and I thought, why not document it?
First off, I started by marking the dates on my calendar. Gotta know when this thing is happening, right? It’s not like an eclipse that you can see in the sky; it’s all about the angles between planets from our perspective here on Earth. This particular transit was just a couple of days, but it got me thinking about the long game, how the Sun and Jupiter dance around each other over longer periods.
Then, I got into observation mode. What am I supposed to be looking out for? From what I gathered, this transit is about growth, luck, but also some challenges. It’s like the universe is giving you a nudge, maybe a shove, to get you moving, but it’s not all smooth sailing. You’ve got to watch out for overdoing it, getting too cocky, or just blowing things out of proportion.
- Wrote down intentions. Sounds a bit woo-woo, maybe, but it helps to have a focus. I jotted down some areas where I wanted to see growth or where I felt stuck.
- Tracked my mood and energy levels. Did I feel more optimistic? More driven? Or did I swing the other way, feeling overwhelmed or just plain lazy?
- Noticed any “lucky” breaks or opportunities. Did anything unexpectedly good happen? Did I feel more popular or recognized?
- Watched for ego flares. This was a big one. Did I catch myself getting a big head? Did I make any rash decisions thinking I was invincible?
Here’s what I did:
During the transit, I tried to stay busy but mindful. I pushed myself a bit on projects I’d been putting off, said “yes” to a couple of social invites I might usually decline, and generally tried to embrace this supposed energy of expansion. But I also made sure to check in with myself, to make sure I wasn’t getting carried away. Meditation helped, journaling too. Just taking a few minutes each day to reflect kept me grounded.
The outcome? Well, it wasn’t like I won the lottery or anything. But I did feel a shift. I tackled a project that had been hanging over me, and it turned out better than I expected. I had a few good, quality interactions with friends and felt more connected. And I didn’t fall into any major ego traps, which I’m counting as a win.
So, that’s my down-to-earth take on the Sun square Jupiter transit. It’s about balancing that push for growth with a healthy dose of self-awareness. Not about expecting miracles, but about working with the energy that’s there, being open to opportunities, and keeping your ego in check. Astrology can be a fun tool for personal development, as long as you keep it real and don’t expect the stars to do all the work for you.
