Holm Astrology has been creating "Astrology" and "Food For Thought" posts for over 10 years.  Wix has taken over the Vista Print websites and as a result of the migration of our information, a large portion of our blog posts are currently lost. 

 

We realize our Astrology posts are vital to our students.

Life is a continual lesson, a continual current of change. We have gained inner strength particularly in the darkest moments.  This is a test of resilience.  A test of faith in others and ourselves.
Current of Change

There is much uncertainty in life. We really don’t know where we are headed, yet we can always hold our heads high and make our way through the currents of change presented to us daily.

 

Life moves us along with or without our approval.  We juggle our objectives and set courses for the road ahead without really knowing where that road might take us.

 

Our objectives are likely feasible and attainable, yet it is okay to reach for higher goals as the higher we aim the higher we can reach. 

 

You may question what is the purpose for striving to achieve or to pushi ahead in life. After all, life is uncertain.

 

It is human nature to need goals and objectives to strive for as it gives us tangible purpose.

 

We learn perseverance in dealing with the different climates life presents us with and need to be adaptable as we coming to terms with where life is taking us.  We find solace in those that provide support and tell us to hang on. We maneuver our way forward and we learn to listen to the advice of our inner voice and those who care about us.  We will learn to walk with our heads high through difficulties and we gain immensely through adversity.

 

There certainly will be times when life smiles at us and we must remind ourselves to relax and enjoy these times.

 

Life is a continual lesson, a continual current of change. We have gained inner strength particularly in the darkest moments.  This is a test of resilience.  A test of faith in others and ourselves. 

 

Count your blessings and acknowledge your accomplishments.  Believe in yourself.  Listen to advice and know that you are never alone. You can depend on life teaching you whatever you need to know and then moving you in the right direction, always!

Transiting Jupiter can have a profound effect while making a sextile to your natal Mars.  The timing usually lasts about 6 to 8 weeks depending on whether Jupiter moves into its retrograde cycle. 

 


 Transiting Jupiter Sextile Natal Mars is an aspect of great expansive, beneficial energy. It is an energy, however, that you must work with.  The benefit will not simply fall in your lap. Take advantage if this transit is affecting your chart.
Transiting Jupiter Sextile Natal Mars

Currently (August 2024) Transiting Jupiter will move into retrograde on October 8, 2024, and it will be at 21° in the sign of Gemini.  Its stationary period is about one day.  This stationary period is very intense for those who have a planet at this degree, especially those that have major aspects within 1-3° direct from the natal chart to this position. 

 

Jupiter’s influence, while in retrograde, will last many months and those affected will feel its intensity when it crosses the degrees of influence in their personal natal chart.

 

We are discussing the sextile in this post, but the trine is also similar to the effects of the sextile, and both are energies we hope and wait for.  The sextile implies opportunities that will be presented and that we need to act to take advantage of.  The sextile is a positive aspect and indicates openings and prospects for when things might flow in a more constructive manner.

 

Jupiter is the most opportunistic planet in Astrology. Jupiter provides growth, expansion, good luck, rewarding experiences and allows things to move forward.  When applied to challenging situations like someone experiencing a fatal disease or illness with no prospect of recovery, it can also indicate the ending of situations pushing things ahead so that no further suffering takes place.

 

With Transiting Jupiter Sextile Mars, we have a great push to advance in some manner, depending on the houses involved in our chart.  The houses are areas of life, and this will be where these energies are initiated.  Wherever Mars is located in the Natal Chart, this will be the area which offers opportunities for growth and expansion. 

 

If, for example, Mars is tied to the MC (midheaven), this will suggest that opportunities in abundance may lie within the scope of your career or ties in with your objectives and path in life.  Your status may change and this flows in a smoother manner. With the sextile, however, you must take advantage of the energies at hand, or they may not manifest in the manner that they could if you were to push for results.

 

If Jupiter is travelling through your 11th house and it makes a Sextile to your Mars/MC’s position, you may receive help from groups or from friends to make things happen.  If Jupiter is travelling through the 12th house and still making this sextile to your Mars/MC, assistance may come from unknown sources, or you may receive help from the subconscious or other realms of influence.  This may be hidden from you or perhaps you do not know about this energy or where it has come from.


Transiting Jupiter Sextile Natal Mars is an aspect of great expansive, beneficial energy. It is an energy, however, that you must work with.  The benefit will not simply fall in your lap. Take advantage if this transit is affecting your chart.

 

A professional Astrologer can help you understand the potential with this aspect and other aspects forming angles within the natal chart.

Many of us never give up.  In the face of opposition, we can find ways to maneuver our way through, and with persistence, our efforts pay off. 

 

We all have certainly lost some battles or at least that is the way it felt, but we gained experience from these encounters.  We also feel like we have won some of these predicaments. We have achieved heights we never thought were possible and gained inner strength and resilience.

 


Know that you will not only persist but overcome on some level, even if just a change of attitude.  You are stronger than you realize. You have inner resources available when you believe in yourself.  Persistence pays dividends.
PERSISTENCE PAYS DIVIDENDS

For those overwhelmed by their current journey, we still say, “never give up”.  Persistence pays dividends. Fight through any adversity.  Make your way forward one step at a time and find a resolution or a path around whatever stands in your way. 

 

It is worth the fight regardless of the outcome as you will begin to realize that there is a core of strength within that you may have never realized before. We are resilient by nature and can and will withstands adversity if we decide to.

 

Keep up the good fight and know that you can and will not only persist but overcome on some level, even if it may be a change of attitude.  You are stronger than you realize, and you have inner resources available when you believe in yourself.  Thought process, belief structure and expectations mold our lives. 

 

You will persevere; you will find a way around or over any obstruction and walk away a better person because of it.  Life is the teacher, and we are the students.
