As goddess of sensuality, Venus, approaches fun-loving God Jupiter, don’t be surprised if the desire to indulge is stronger than usual.

Both considered ‘benefic’ planets, aspects between Venus and Jupiter bring financial opportunity, space to do the things you love and an optimistic and amiable approach to encounters with others. 

Valuing freedom to roam, faith in the future, and a forgiving attitude; appreciation for the little things which make a big difference improve one’s general outlook. 

During this conjunction, forgetting feuds and letting go can encourage personal growth and healing on a soul-level.

It’s easy to see why people get so loved up about Venus and Jupiter. However, the benefic planets struggle to observe self-discipline around pleasure-seeking activities. 

Greater benefic Jupiter’s buoyant essence moves onward and upward, and his adventurous spirit craves limitless exploration. 

An insatiable appetite for discovery, Jupiter doesn’t always know when he should leave the party, stop placing bets, or put down the beer.

Lesser benefic Venus has a tendency to be lazy; a slave to the senses, her desire to indulge the pleasures of the moment lend to her buxom appeal. 

Venus likes to be liked and in fear of upsetting other people and making herself less popular, is likely to sugar-coat the truth, rather than say it like it is.

Expansive Jupiter enhances everything he touches so Venusian qualities are exaggerated during this transit. 

Hence, relationships get a bountiful boost. But so does the tendency to enable unhealthy habits, excessive attitudes toward the sweeter things in life, and the grateful acceptance that the truth isn’t being openly expressed – in favour of a harmonious environment.
