Jupiter in Libra-The year in review-

The planet of good luck, expansion and growth has cleared its shadow and will speed through the last degrees of Libra over the next month until he moves into the deep waters of Scorpio.

Jupiter first entered Libra on 10 September 2016. In Greek mythology Jupiter known as the Olympian God Zeus was married to his devoted wife Juno who was loyal and faithful unlike Zeus who had a hunger for other women and would get up to all sorts of tricks to seduce the women he admired. The theme over the last year has centred on relationships, fairness, equality and where balance and harmony was needed in your life.

We have seen great strides around marriage equality which has raised debate between the yes and no parties. The major theme of relationships has featured strongly with many marriages and divorces. Famous splits Brad Pitt/ Angelina Jolie, Ben Stiller/Christine Taylor and marriages Pippa Middleton, Jacinta/ Buddy Franklin. There has been a raised awareness around domestic violence.

In the workplace we have seen penalty rates being cut on weekends whilst ensuring it is fairer for businesses but not for employees. We have seen many cuts in funding and money being channeled into less important areas which favour big business, government, share holders and the like.

On a positive note we have seen more co-operations, negotiation around community events, rallies and a rise in people coming together to support causes. We have seen a rise in the Divine Feminine, reconnection to the natural world and honouring the original Goddess and mother earth.

The sign of Libra is all about justice we have seen continual evidence that our justice system is not in alignment with general public thinking. There is no continuity in the sentencing or the bail system.

Reflect over the coming month how the theme of relationship, equality and fairness has played out in your life over the last year. This may have resulted in working on issues in your partnership where there was a need for more compromise and negotiating peace deals. At its worst, this theme of relationships could have meant separation for you and your partner. This may have played out for you in your career around workers rights or funding cuts. It’s time to make peace with what has been raised for you as we are about to go much deeper with the upcoming movement of Jupiter into Scorpio on 11 October 2017.
