The BIG NEWS today is Venus in Taurus conjuncts Uranus in Taurus and the Sun in Taurus conjuncts Jupiter in Taurus. It's a time of self-worth translating into net-worth all over the place. Both aspects are rare and occur only once a year, although Venus conjunct Uranus will show-up in exactness three (3) times within a couple month period IF THERE IS a Retrograde of Venus.

Remember, a conjunction is when two (2) or more planets are in the same sign and degree, where the energies of the two (2) planets involved are intensifed. So Venus is intensified (Love and money), Uranus is intensified (sudden change and rebellion), the Sun is intensified (ego, identity) and Jupiter is intensified (optimistic, fortunate, adventure, travel experiences and happy go lucky).

First let's address Venus conjunct Uranus. Keep in mind Uranus is the 'oddball' planet that orbits nearly on its side. That's weird. That's strange. That's unusual. That's unique. That's Uranus for ya'.

Uranus rules lightning, which means it carries a lot of quick and sudden changing power! Change occurs so suddenly, so quickly, so instantly that it appears to have come out of nowhere. It's like the power of 'Lightning' releasing five (5) gigajoules of energy. 'Giga' means 'billion' so its five (5) billion joules (pronounced jewels) of energy.

Now when these two (2) planets are combined and intensified it creates romantic attractions that are so sudden that it is the classic placement for literally 'falling in Love'. It's like stumbling over yourself and then, "Oh hey, I'm in Love." This is how two (2) people meet, get engaged after two (2) weeks, then move in together. It is 'sudden attraction' with Uranus being the culprit for the 'sudden change in circumstance' and when attached to Venus, you get odd, unusual, crazy Love. Keep reading, there's a lot more useful information . . .

The problem with this placement is that the attraction is so sudden and so fast that not so soon afterward the excitement wanes, the thrill is gone, and the freedom (or spell so to speak) that initiated the interest has now moved on.

This aspect does not make an allowance to curb one's sense of freedom. It tends to get bored and restless in a traditional style of relationship and needs room to breathe.

Uranus naturally rules Aquarius, which needs a lot of 'space' to breathe. Aquarius needs so much space that they need outer space. And way out there in space is where we find Uranus.

There are a lot of weddings in the Spring and this is definitey NOT the aspect I would choose to get married under, unless of course there is a long engagement and if the wedding was planned way in advance, but definitely not at the last minute. This is NOT the aspect you want to marry in the case of an elopement.

This aspect seeks fun, spontaneity and intellectual stimulation from a partner, due to the Aquarius influence who carries the motto, "I know therefore I am." In other words, the relationship needs to 'remain interesting'. This aspect absolutely can not get bored.

Venus conjunct Uranus needs to be recognized as an individual within the personal relationship. The independence streak is very strong in this aspect and it cannot be negotiated out. "Back off, I gotta be me. It's not you, it's me."

This aspect is also a walking party that makes an already outgoing individual the 'Life of the party', making one even more popular among friends, groups and draws-in mere acquaintances.

This energy can also mistake a lover for a friend and a friend for a lover because of Venus naturally ruling Libra and the 7th house of committed relationships and Uranus naturally ruling Aquarius and the 11th house of friends.

Some natal charts will require the partner to be a friend, but this aspect is not set up for longevity, which would be a Saturn influence if longevity were involved. Aquarian energy (Uranus) does not need to be married. It does not need to have a documented piece of paper to prove Love. People need that proof, the Universe doesn't need it. Just sayin'.

P.S. - Sagittarian's and Aquarian's ABSOLUTELY need their partner to be their best friend.

Do you know what is more odd than Uranus? The fact that Saturn, which rules longevity and time is the ancient ruler of Aquarius, and Uranus is the planet of sudden change is the modern-day ruler of Aquarius. That's a dichotomy! It also means Aquarius 'can be' fickle when it comes to Love, like Gemini.

Venus combined with Uranus can make a sudden break in the relationship occur as quickly as it started. What started as a wildfire can end just as quickly with a bucket of water and a hose.

I would also be mindful of conversations or hanging out with others during this aspect. Keep in mind this energy began in applying degrees on May 9th, it is exact today, and will last in separating degrees until May 25th. All the sudden the energy takes a wild turn, spins out, feelings are hurt and someone is peeling-out angry tossing gravel everywhere.

Venus not only rules the 7th house of committed relationships, but also the 2nd house of self-worth and net-worth, which means 'personal finances'. So while you could easily come into sudden money, the money will leave your hands before it has had time to even clear the bank. Money comes and goes quicker than the wind. It doesn't have to if you are mindful.

Spending money right now should have value and purpose. It's a Taurus thing. In other words, you should not simply spend on a 'want'. Wants come and go, but needs or things that make your Life better or make you a better individual is the way to go, especially during this aspect. Make-up and clothes do not make you a better person. That's a cover.

By the way, Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury (the wind and weather) so relationships, money, new Love, dating, finances are pretty much, easy come easy go. Be mindful, remain aware and stay conscious.

Sun Conjunct Jupiter on DrStandley.com

The Sun conjunct Jupiter is THE BEST aspect for the Sun. Sure, the Sun trine Jupiter is pretty dang sweet, which is the aspect that PRESIDENT Trump has and I have it as well. It's the cat with nine (9) lives that always lands on its feet and that's just the trine of the Sun and Jupiter.

Why do I mention the Sun trine Jupiter while the Sun conjunct Jupiter is present? Because while Jupiter is in Taurus, it is making a trine to those with the Sun in Capricorn and the Sun in Virgo. The trine exists out there right now, as there are Sun in Virgo and Sun in Capricorn people experiencing the Sun trine Jupiter in their Solar Return this very minute. You MUST understand this energy.

Now consider the conjunction of the Sun and Jupiter, which intensifies the energy of the two (2) planets involved. Jupiter E-X-P-A-N-D-S whatever it touches.

So we begin feeling the Good fortune, the luck, the extra blessings, the grace, the favor raining down, especially if you have any planets that are conjunct, sextile or trine to this conjunction. The Sun and Jupiter are conjunct at 28 degrees. This means this aspect will be present within 10 degrees into the future impacting some Gemini birth dates up to June 2, 2024. It's pretty dang great energy.

This aspect rolls around once a year, which means the Sun and Jupiter have to be in the same Sun Sign in order for it to occur. Remember, Jupiter e-x-p-a-n-d-s whatever it touches and it is touching the Sun.

The Sun is NOT a planet, we just call it that in Astrology. It is actually a Star! Now Jupiter conjuncts the Sun and e-x-p-a-n-d-s the energy of it. Imagine that, the energy of the Sun being expanded by the biggest planet in our Solar System.

This means whatever Taurus rules, since that is the sign involved, then it gets e-x-p-a-n-d-e-d. Same goes for Gemini when this energy Sun and Jupiter shift in Gemini over the next week. The Sun will move into Gemini on May 20, 2024 and Jupiter will move into Gemini on May 25, 2024. This conjunction is still on the same road running neck and neck up until June 2, 2024 and then the Sun will pull ahead and more distance will be created between the two (2) planets.

The Sun conjunct Jupiter commands attention, but does not demand attention. This aspect 'will' accomplish goals through one's own self-motivation and individual push. It kinda reminds me of this book I use to read to my daughter. It was this little bear called 'Buttons' and Buttons would always say, "I can do it myself".

This aspect will not be asking for help, it will just get it. COUNT ON IT! Help just lands in your lap. So watch for this to occur, no matter if your birthday occurs around this time or not. The energy is present for everyone to use, it's just that those with birthdays around the dates specified will reap the blessings all year, from birthday to birthday. You can just count on the area of your chart being impacted by this aspect will get help.

This is so dang awesome I can hardly stand itself.

The Sun conjunct Jupiter attracts wealth and luck like a magnet simply due to its optimistic and magnetic energy. It cannot think any other way except Goodness, Plenty, More, Bigger, Better, Magnificent and Great. I ALWAYS say that I am attracted to greatness because I have the Sun trine Jupiter, which is the 2ND BEST ASPECT a chart can have, with the best being the Sun conjunct Jupiter.

I mean I really LOVE things that are GREAT, OPULENT, PALATIAL, GRANDIOSE, MAJESTIC AND MAGNIFICENT. I Love for my mind to be blown by the OUTRAGEOUSLY FANTASTIC. Needless to say, due to the attraction to 'real greatness' the mind can easily be let down by mediocrity. So what blows others hair back, may not even phase mine. Like celebrities, autographs and star power. Ehhhhh, whatever. I'd rather witness some really great, majestic and magnificent. I'd rather hear a really power statement that takes my breath away and makes me think in quiet time for hours.

Sun Conjunct Jupiter on DrStandley.com

For this reason, it's also hard for me to be surprised, wow'd, awe'd or impressed and that's kind of a bummer. It's easy to say, "Well that awesome thing didn't last long." So the Sun trine Jupiter or the Sun conjunct Jupiter can have that kind of impact. Wuh wuh wuhhhhh (sounds the trombone)

The strong advice with either the Sun conjunct Jupiter or Sun trine Jupiter is be fully present and enjoy your enjoyment. Enjoy your enjoyment. STOP watching your Life through filters, cameras and video. Put your damn phone down and be present. Unless of course you have a tripod so you don't have to lose your presence. That's very dual-natured. Be present, so you can be present.

The Sun conjunct Jupiter just makes my heart sing. Great achievements and great things that are truly majestic, spendid and monumental just rock my world. I mean really really great. Not just something cool, I mean something great! The word 'awesome' is so over-used in today's society that people don't really know what awesome really is anymore. What is awesome? Really? I like my mind blown in this way. And I mean GREAT! So come on SUN CONJUNCT JUPITER!!!

You can imagine what the Sun conjunct Jupiter does to someone like me with the Sun trine Jupiter. I DO EXPECT something super amazing to happen so my eyes can witness it. I look for it. I expect it! And no, I did not see the Northern Lights. We were watching hockey games every night (NHL playoffs), and we meant to go outside, but didn't. Slept right through it every night it appeared.

At the same time, what do you do, what do we do, what do I do, when energy like this is present. You should be pushing on the gas! Your intention should be to put out there some incredible work, creativity and projects while the timing is right, and it is right, right now. .

And folks, if you are waiting for PRESIDENT Trump who has the Sun trine Jupiter to fall, you can keep waiting, because he will land on his feet. Every. Dang. Time. ALWAYS! Trial after trial, he lands on his feet. Now you can imagine, just how OUT THERE the Sun conjunct Jupiter is, but folks, you have to identify with the energy in order to call it to you. If you cannot believe it or see it in your mind's eye, then you never get to touch it or experience it because you can't even imagine it.

Talk about the 'Law of Attraction'. The Sun conjunct Jupiter is also a manifestor, just as the Sun trine Jupiter is a manifestor. The Sun conjunct Jupiter and the Sun trine Jupiter are both the 'Law of Attraction' and 'Universal Law of Reciprocity' without having to read the books to learn about it or to convince yourself that it exists.

The Law of Attraction is innate knowledge to those with the Sun conjunct Jupiter and Sun trine Jupiter without having to recite affirmations to convince them as such because it just MAKES SENSE to them.

These two (2) aspects (Sun conjunct Jupiter and Sun trine Jupiter) know that it is far easier to simply believe it rather than work on believing it. Dang, who wants to 'work' on that. Just believe it! Just believe and it is so. Heck, I don't have time to work on it (that's too much work), I'm busy acting on it and manifesting present time, not in the future or when I get time. Right now baby!

Again, why do I mention the Sun trine Jupiter so much while the Sun conjunct Jupiter is present? Because while Jupiter is in Taurus, it is making a trine to those with the Sun in Capricorn and the Sun in Virgo. The trine exists out there right now, as there are Sun in Virgo and Sun in Capricorn people experiencing the Sun trine Jupiter in their Solar Return right now. You MUST understand this energy.

When Jupiter moves into Gemini, then Gemini's will experiencing the conjunction, but then Libra's and Aquarian's will experience the trine. Physician know thyself.

So go ahead with your vision boards with pictures of wheelbarrows full of money, but just know this, no one pushes around a wheelbarrow full of money and so that is simply out of touch with reality. It's silliness. That's why those with vision boards of ridiculousness do not see the reality of their dreams. Who pushes around wheelbarrows full of money? That's just dreaming, not manifesting.

Envision something that is more real, like cash-on-hand in your wallet and a healthy and substantial bank balance with all bills paid on time. Instead of picturing yourself SPENDING money, how about appreciating the value of a buck and picture yourself SAVING money. Wow! That's profound! You see, that's the problem with vision boards, there is outrageous spending and not enough outrageous saving or investing.

The Sun conjunct Jupiter has a super positive outlook that is unmatchable by any other aspect, although the Sun trine Jupiter runs a very very tight close second. Since I have the Sun trine Jupiter, which is second to the conjunction, that is precisely why I named my yoga studio Pose-itively Yoga that carries the tagline 'Purely and Positively Yoga'. It's optimism to its absolute core.

Folks, in all Good things, be deliberate and conscious of why you do what you do. I also like GOLD splattered around this website and my Pose-itively Yoga website.

The Sun conjunct Jupiter naturally wins friends and influences people. This is the true 'motivational speaker' and 'experiential junkie'. And remember a conjunction is when two planets are in the same sign, which causes them to intensify the energies of the planets involved. Remember, Sun is actually a Star, not a planet and Jupiter e-x-p-a-n-d-s whatever it touches.

Emotionally speaking, it is a really great day and the Moon will move out Virgo and into Libra, the sign of us, we and our. Yay!

The Astro Memes have been posted since October 2023, so you should have been all over this energy for months. Well, coulda, woulda, shoulda, and now you know, so here it is today and exact. Go, get on it and make something of yourself and this energy. By the way, Tucker Carlson also has the Sun trine Jupiter and Joe Rogan has the Sun conjunct Jupiter.

Also, as a gentle reminder, since Monday - March 11, 2024 at the end of every single Daily Horoscope I have been reminding you that this coming June, July and August 2024 I will NOT be writing ANY Natal Charts or Solar Returns as I will be working on a project that will likely take me three (3) months. Folks, please DO NOT wait until the final few days of May 2024 to place your order because I would like to be complete before June 1st. When I set my mind to something, it is already a done deal, so please do not wait until the last minute because it can take up to seven (7) days to get your order complete if there are other orders before yours. If it gets within a few days of June 1st and I have all orders written and emailed, and I can pull the pin early, then I will pull the pin early. So please, get your orders in now.
