We realize our Astrology posts are vital to our students.

Are you overly focused on the needs of everyone else? 

 

Do you neglect your own needs? 

 

You matter as well.  If you don’t look after your own needs, who will? 

 

You are important and you can’t help others for long if you neglect yourself.  You matter and you should be a priority.

 

Take a moment to think of something that you wish for yourself. What was your reaction? 


You have value.  Respect that value. Time to refocus.
Respect your value!

Your reaction will be a good indicator of the importance you place on “YOU”.  Is there a part that says you are not worthy or not good enough? 

 

Recognize your value. Do something for you!  We are not referring to material things. We are referring to your health - mentally, physically and spiritually. Pay particular attention to how you talk to yourself and how you prioritize your needs.

 

Listening to that little voice that whispers what is important for you right now, even if it is just a 5 minute break from the hustle of parenthood, from the demands of clients, etc.

 

You have value.  Respect that value. Time to refocus.

We will focus on Transiting Jupiter Opposition Natal Mars in this post.


You will likely feel more assertive and enthusiastic about your endeavors under this influence.  Using this energy in positive ways should be your focus and if you have something that needs work, especially any fears that you might have, now will be the time where you can find ways to overcome them.
Jupiter Opposition Mars

The transit of Jupiter, unless it moves into retrograde motion, lasts approximately three weeks.  Jupiter is about expansion, opportunities and growth through life experience or life lessons. 

 

Mars’ energies are about drive and ambition and wants to move forward via direct action.  Sometimes these energies need a push but under most conditions, they are assertive on their own. 

 

The opposition often involves others and can define itself by overaction, excessive energy and sometimes too much drive and ambition.  Sometimes with this combination of Jupiter and Mars, we need to set limits and realize that we can make impulsive decisions that might not work in our favor in the long run.

 

You will likely feel more assertive and enthusiastic about your endeavors under this influence.  You may have to watch for promising more than you can deliver because of this enthusiastic push to make things happen.  Others may feel this push from you and take advantage of your outgoing nature under this influence.  You do seem to be a source of opportunity and drive and may send out energetic vibes that can make others feel that you can bring good luck and opportunities their way (as well as in your own direction).  Sometimes we need to hold back and review what we wish to accomplish before moving forward. In many cases, however, things just seem to work and fall into place.

 

Using this energy in positive ways should be your focus and if you have something that needs work, especially any fears that you might have, now will be the time where you can find ways to overcome them. 

 

Jupiter, regardless of the type of aspect, will most often bring desired results through actively seeking resolution or associated action.  There are big opportunities for growth, but you will have to be the push but don’t push too hard especially if you oversee others.  The drive that you have right now may not be shared by your co-workers or assistants.

 

In case Jupiter does go into its retrograde cycle, you may find that it passes over your Natal Mars three times.  Once when it initially moves across the area, a second time when it moves over it again in retrograde and the final time when it passes over it once again when it returns to direct motion.  The initial connection when Jupiter reaches our Natal Mars is usually the strongest and the time to move ahead.  The second time it moves across while in retrograde might be the best time to make plans for what you need to do. When it crosses Natal Mars for the last time, you may make the final decisions that were initiated in the first pass and finalize things.

At times, we can feel alone, disenchanted, unloved and we feel abandoned.  This can be especially true around the holidays or when we are comparing ourselves to others.  We can become distressed, unorganized, worried, and anxious about where life is taking us or not taking us.  We wish for a glimmering hope of better days ahead.

 

We wonder if things will ever shift, and this is when most of us decide to find our way out. The first step would be to face these issues head on. Dive deep! Where do these issues stem from and what are they teaching us?

 

Push yourself to take the first step.


There is always valuable information and growth on the other side of life’s lessons. Do not be dismayed.  You can and will make your way through.  Dig in and take charge!
Do Not Be Dismayed

Challenges can feel like we made a wrong turn but there are no wrong turns in life. While in the midst of a challenge, especially one that we are trying to hide from, this concept may be difficult to understand let alone accept.  But running away from issues is not the easy way. More often than not, the issue keeps resurfacing.  It will persist until we have learned the lesson at hand.

 

If we dig in and are determined, we gain strength, self-confidence, valuable insight and knowledge from the experience.  All things pass, and if we persevere and push ourselves, the lessons are learned and our reality (or maybe our perspective) shifts.

 

Stand your ground as you are stronger than you think.  You will reap the rewards from your challenges even during those times it feels as though it is just one thing after another.  Sometimes life goes this way when you want it to go that way but life continually shifts. There is always valuable information and growth on the other side of life’s lessons.

 

Do not be dismayed.  You can and will make your way through.  Dig in and take charge!
