I welcome sharing my writing, links, quotes and Astro Memes,
but copying and passing off my work as ones own, is plagarism!
Big difference!

The BIG NEWS today is Jupiter in Taurus squares Pluto in Aquarius at 9:11 PM EDT where it began in applying degrees on April 13, 2023, it is exact today, and will last in separating degrees until June 22, 2023. This aspect says, "DON'T BET THE RANCH OR YOU WILL LOSE!" This aspect has consequences, sequels and reverberations for your avarice, over-consumption and self-indulgence.

Read that last sentence again!!

The applying and separating degrees means Jupiter square Pluto will impact, influence and affect the tail-end of Aries birth dates from April 13 to April 20, 2023, all Taurus birth dates, and all Gemini birth dates in their 2023 Solar Return. Including the first two (2) days of Cancer birth dates. April 13, 2023 until June 22, 2023. That is a lot of people! I am a Gemini and you bet your ass I'm playing my hand safe.

Folks, this should be no surprise to you as the May 2023 Astro Memes have been posted since the end of February 2023. It's not like you couldn't see this coming, but like anything else, including all of the conspiracy theories, you can either look and pay attention, or not. Keep reading . . .

You might be asking yourself, "Self? How can this be? Jupiter just moved into Taurus yesterday." Well, Pluto is still sitting at 00 degrees in Aquarius, which means it is hanging out at the tail-end of Capricorn. Rememberrrrrrrr, Pluto will retrograde back into Capricorn on June 11, 2023. So Pluto is barely sitting in Aquarius right now. So the final degrees of Jupiter in Aries was still in the 'orb of influence' of the late degrees of Pluto in Capricorn. Aries and Capricorn square each other! Squares have sharp pointy corners and hurt when they jab you in the side, or in the thigh, or anywhere in your Life for that matter. That's going to leave a mark, meaning evidence that it was there.

Squares have an 'orb of influence' of 08 degrees. Some astrologers say 04 degrees. I will go toe-to-toe with them, or arm wrestle, or leg wrestle them over this. I guarantee, for the enLightened souls, their intuition picks up on these energies long after the 04 degree orb and they can feel this energy miles away, say like 08 degrees away.

Granted some people are still blind to the ways of the world right now and have no clue they are about to get hit in the face with a bunch of pies (and eggs) and other surprises, so they are still 'not' making any provisional or preparatory changes in their Life. This means their intuitive senses are NOT tuned-in, but boy-oh-boy they will tell you how intuitive they are, and then wonder why sh!t happens to them.

What I am saying is the 'no clue folk' are likely not feeling a thing cause you know they trust anyone in a position of power (Pluto in Capricorn), 'scause they trust their leaders. Insert a hefty dose of sarcasm. These individuals have no intuitive sense about them and are the ones who do not feel square aspects until they are right up on them, which would be within a '04 degree orb of influence', when they should be feeling it at 08 degrees. Or reading ahead and knowing the 08 degree orb is coming and deliberately dialing (tuning-in) even sooner than that.

Not tuning-in is like not seeing a train coming or even sensing to look for a train until it's too late and then it's right up on you. Tuning-in is sensing like the animals do when the weather shifts, or they feel the earth move under their feet, and then they haul-ass and get out of there, whereas the un-intuitive humans are standing around saying, "Whhaaaat? Huh?"

Folks, if there is one thing I want you to get out of the astrology that I write, my soul's purpose is to press upon you the need and importance of your intuition and your connection to Source (God). Your soul's connection to Source is what keeps you protected, nurtured, Loved, assured and insured.

Some have really lost their connection to Source (God) and are so dialed-in to this physical and natural world that they trust the wrong people (leaders) and not God. You can tell by the way they live. Some are so dialed-in to this world that they are injured emotionally by every little thing, which means everything is about 'them'. Folks, watch your easily emotionally injured self because that could very well be a form of narcissism. Not everything is about you. Ask any psychologist . . they will tell the same thing.

I guarantee, if you are soooooooo intuitive, you would be prepping and going into self-preservation mode for your family, as well as your friends who are your family.

When 'Viv' and I ran off to the circus last week (we went to Destin, FL) we were two (2) prepared grandma's who had their sh!t together. We were packed and prepared for anything and had back-up plans for our back-up plans. We were not going to get 'stuck' in case of a SHTF event. You know how people get backed-up in airports and have to sleep on the floor and all hotels are full. We had our chess game in position. We were not flying blind. And neither should you.

This Jupiter square Pluto energy is a BFD (big f'ing deal). You absolutely have to tune-in or you will find yourself panicked at the first hint of trouble. When Viv and I flew-off on a whim, our lives were in order. Folks, you CANNOT take chances right now. You cannot. Go . . do your thing . . live your Life . . but prepare.

Jupiter is the philosophical and religious planet. Jupiter is also the luckiest, most fortunate and successful planet. Wherever Jupiter sits, is where the luck and success show-up.

You might have an afflicted Jupiter in your natal chart where Jupiter has squares or oppositions to it, which means you have probably had a hard time meeting or achieving success. I would say that maybe you have had to learn the hard way. If you were extremely wealthy anytime sooner, you would not have been able to handle it, which is why it has not shown up yet or which is why it will show up when you have learned your lesson.

Jupiter will give you success, but when it has hard aspects to it, there is a price that one pays for that success, so it is difficult to have career success and personal Life success at the same time. So one has to aim for stability through being conservative, enLightened and generous. Meaning, once you become financially successful, it would be wise to remember when you were not so financially successful, and that will keep you humble.

Jupiter 'can get' all puffed up about who it is and what it has achieved. You must remember that everyone farts, belches, and pulls their britches down the same way to go to the bathroom. No one is that special that they don't do those things. Get a clue and remain humble.

If you cannot remember what it was like not to have, or you never experienced 'not having', then Jupiter square Pluto will have no problem showing you what it feels it. Stay humble and be generous.

Of course there is a Scripture for Jupiter square Pluto. There is a Scripture for every aspect, in my world. It would be wise during this aspect to remember the parable about 'The Unforgiving Debtor' ~Matthew 18:21-35.

So before you get on your high horse, which is a Sagittarius influence, which is naturally ruled by Jupiter, remember who you are talking to and tame that wild stallion. Jupiter rules philosophy, prophecy and religion. Getting on your high horse could cause others to back away and then no one listens or learns. This can easily create the fanatic.

Now before I get labeled the religious fanatic, I have been quoting Scripture on this website since I have been writing horoscopes, which means since 1999 and this will not change any time soon. This is not a Jupiter square Pluto thing for me. In fact, back in the day when I wrote horoscopes for each sign, a Scripture went with each Sun Sign's Daily Horoscope. Oh yeah. It was a lot of work, so now I include Scripture wherever I feel the connection.

Folks, you can have a successful personal Life and a successful career Life, but you cannot bet the ranch, if you go all-in, you will pay. Tame the wild stallion.

P.S. - I'm still working on the Jupiter in Taurus write-up. I had to practice horseshoes yesterday because my Scorpion King signed me up for a horseshoe league and we had our first game last night. I forgot. Anyway, I did post a lot of Astro Memes on the Jupiter in Taurus write-up and it is important to remember that Jupiter e-x-p-a-n-d-s whatever it touches and it is touching Taurus. It will blow whatever it touches UP like a ballooon, but it can also blow that very thing to smithereens if it is too much or not Good. Whatever Jupiter is touching in your chart needs to be regulated and monitored. I'll be back later today with more on Jupiter in Taurus. Watch that page!
