Big difference!

The BIG NEWS today is Mars in Leo squares Jupiter in Aquarius Taurus at exactly 1:13 AM EDT where it began in applying degrees on May 12, 2023, it is exact today, and will last in separating degrees until June 16, 2023.

Read the Astro Meme for this aspect slowly and mindfully. It says, "Too much of a Good thing isn't, and too much of a bad thing is worse." This aspect can actually turn out to be pretty darn great if you can stay focused on the positive (Jupiter) for all its lucky breaks, opportunities and possibilities. It's when one is not paying attention that the lucky break is broken, the opportunity is missed and the possibility is lost.

Mars and Jupiter are both looking for excitement, adventure and new experiences. Mars is impulsive, competitive and aggressive, while Jupiter is happy-go-lucky, friendly and the epitome of positive thinking. This 'can be' a fun combination, but all too often there is rush to judgment. Mars is in a rush and Jupiter is the supreme ruler of the court (judgment). Decisions are made haphazardly without full consideration of the consequences. "Well, it sounded like a Good idea at the time" will not change the circumstances back to pre-decision. What's done is done.

While the easy advice with this aspect is to, "Focus on the positive", it's not that easy to do in the world we are living in today. The pressure, the uncertainty, the control, the lack of control and lack of patience results in a powder-keg that is ready to blow. This puts temptations on alert. Jupiter is free-thinking and does not like to be told how to think and what to think. People are tired and have had enough.

This planetary combination can easily turn into explosive energy that results in destruction and is remniscent of war, if not war itself. Let's remember that Jupiter E-X-P-A-N-D-S whatever it touches and it is reaching out and touching Mars through an aggressive square. THIS ENERGY IS READY TO SCREAM and punch someone in the face! Mars is over-exaggerated by Jupiter to the 'nth degree. Remember, this aspect began in applying (approaching) degrees on May 12, 2023, it is exact today, and will last in separating (pull apart) degrees until June 16, 2023.

Gosh, as powerful as this collective energy is, imagine if you channelled it into creativity and productivity. It's going to take a might strong-willed person to let the destruction and chaos fall where it may, while keeping the wits and preparing for the fallout.

While some load up their shopping carts for a child's 3 year old birthday party who won't remember it a few years from now, I won't let my gas tank get below 3/4 tank so that we have back-up fuel for the generator when the gas cans run out. I keep telling the Scorpion King, if I'm wrong about this, then I'm wrong, but if I'm right, we won't suffer. It's as if the world we live in, isn't the world we live in to the shoppers.

Mars square Jupiter is pretty much a traveling party in a pick-up truck, hootin' and hollerin' with friends standing up in the back, driving fast through a field of tall weeds unable to see there is a big tree stump ahead. The truck hits the tree stump and everyone goes flying. Crazy scene huh? Yeah, well . . . that was me in high school with some friends. What was fun can quickly turn into the danger zone.

Mars is aggressive and is looking to be first and win. Jupiter is a very social planet and likes to get around the planet making itself known on the global stage, so there is a strong possibility that this could result in self-aggrandizement or self-ingratiating behavior. Self-promotion is HUGE! Watch how this "Look at me, look at me" shows up in yourself. You may lose control over yourself or try to gain control over someone else.

Mars is looking for challenge, competition and is the warrior planet and will take war any way it can get it, even if it has to stir up an argument or hot debate just to get the energy ignited and sparks flying. Mars is looking for trouble and if you are not prepared you will get sucker-punched and sucked-in to his trouble-making energy. He will start a fight and then duck leaving you standing there holding the bag.

You may even get caught up in a TV show that promotes or glorifies war or you find yourself in a hot discussion with those who glorify and justify war. Guns will be the hot topic.

Jupiter is expanding the subject matter of war, which means it is glorifying war. There will likely be more war or violent stories on the news, but what's new (?), during the transit of Mars square Jupiter, but you will notice an explosion of bad news. As if if gas was thrown on the news and it exploded in violent reports.

Those who have Mars square Jupiter in their natal chart (or Solar Return) will likely be looking to join a holy crusade or organization that has an aggressive approach or maybe in violence as its foundation. After all, Jupiter rules philosophy and ethics, and in the sign of Taurus, we are talking about morals and values. Haven't you noticed the explosion of a lack of morals, values and hyper-attention to sex. Not, sexual, but SEX ITSELF.

At the same time, the positive approach would be to recognize that we are in a spiritual war. You might then load up on necessities because it is the smart thing to do for yourself and your family. You know, just in case, but just so you do know it will be needed. You must get ahead of the energy.

Some of you may have gotten to the point where you are done talking to others about being safety and preparing for what we don't quite know, but yet we know something isn't right. This is definitely a fight on a social level. It can also show up as the religious fanatic who is hell bent on a crusade (war), after all, Jupiter rules religion and the religious fanatic. This aspect is most definitely controversial.

We know from history that war makes money. And we also know that pestilence makes money for BIG PHARMA, eh hem I mean, BIG HARM YA! You have to understand that BIG HARM YA (Gov) wants every single person on a drug. Everyone!

This aspect is looking to benefit financially through these routes. War creates jobs, even in the clean up. There may be a run on selling guns or weapons (legally or illegally) or even providing bandages for the injured.

Think about back when the plandemic began. Distillers were making hand-sanitzer out of whiskey and gin. Others companies were making ventilators. Still other companies were making masks. Citizens were sewing masks from home. War, pestilence, plandemics . . . make money! EXPAND THAT!

Since Mars is actually the ancient ruler of Scorpio, which is a financial Sun Sign ruling other people's money, it is also the most resourceful sign as well and does not like waste. This makes it a real possibility to waste resources, especially financial resources.

Mars square Jupiter is extreme at its minimum, and it is even more extreme at its extreme. This aspect can lead to ruin in those who are severely out of control and need a cold hard lesson in get-your-act-together. This aspect has a tendency to gamble at very high stakes, not just with money, but with everything. Hey, lets drive fast through a field of weeds where we can't see any dips, holes or tree stumps! FUN! Then BAM, the axle hits a tree stump and everyone goes flying. That is the voice of experience when I was 16 years old. You may not know when to quit. Moderation has to be learned with this aspect because it is not a natural trait.

Women will have trouble with men because Mars is testosterone in the chart and Jupiter is the higher octave of the Moon (the mother). Men may be having issues with their mother, but it reflects on the female partner. Damn, everyone is fighting with each other and it will reveal 'the hypocrites' and 'the liars'.

In the meantime, there will be those who are so self-centered and into their own self-aggrandizement or self-ingratiating behavior that they have no clue that there is trouble brewing beyond the mirror because their hair is not quite right.

Those of you who have your sh-t together, you may be pulling back and pretty much DONE talking a hole through someone's head and it's time to let them have their 'Come to Jesus' on their own terms. And see that's the cool thing, 'Free Will' still exists in God's world and we all get to choose how and if we want to pay attention at all.

We experienced the same aspect back in August 2020, October 2020, January 2021 and December 2021. Think back.

As intended yesterday, I will have to continue on with a RED FONT ADDENDUM tomorrow as my day 'again' was filled-in with readings and by the time I had free time, I needed to get practice horseshoes (because of Tuesday night horseshoe league) and spend some time in my garden. I'm pretty committed to my free time.

I will be writing some TRASH tomorrow and I mean TRASH! I have to re-open a can of worms and literally spell it out for everyone. While emotions are high and tuned-in, it's better than I 'dump' this on the masses while they are feeling and sensing, so you can feel it deeply, which will relieve some of you of the shock later. Let's do it! So the RED FONT ADDENDUM will be on tomorrow's Daily Horoscope and I will post on FB when it's available.
