Hmm I was reading more on astrology, humors, and the nature of things, and I come across a topic that looks interesting Jupiter is masculine, diurnal, hot and moist, airy, sanguine. When it is well dignified in a sign, it gets to express itself naturally. Since Jupiter is sanguine, he is jolly and pleasure seeking. When placed in a supportive sign, he acts according to his true nature. When is placed poorly in a sign like Capricorn ( melancholic by nature) Jupiter becomes very uncomfortable and unable to act properly. Jupiter well placed: happy, modest, and self-satisfaction/inner content Poorly placed: exaggerated sense of needing control to feel happy, needing material belongings to feel secure or safe, need external validation or fortify themselves. So which seems better to you? The ambitious person who manages to build a business empire but will always feel a nagging sense of self doubt within himself? Or the happy person who is content living in a modest home and has a job good enough to pay for his/her expenses? From an outsider view of course. |
