Transiting Jupiter Sextile Natal Mars

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

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.

SUN IN ARIES

On March 19, 2024, our Sun moves from the mutable, water sign of Pisces into the cardinal, fire sign of Aries.  Quite the change from a sign of spiritual, passive energy to a sign of energetic, enthusiastic drive.  From a sign of “what can I do for my fellow man, leaving my own needs until last”?  “How can I help”? to the energies of Aries focused on “what do I need to do in order to move ahead personally and then how can I use this to assist my fellow man to achieve what they have set out to do”.  Pisces are gentle, passive, and compassionate while Aries are enthusiastic, energetic, and pushy.

Sun in Aries

The ruler of the sign Aries is Mars, the planet of energy, action and assertiveness.

Aries individuals are the groundbreakers, the entrepreneurs of the Zodiac.  Ariens are driven almost beyond control to achieve what they set out to do and rush head-first into their objective.  If they fall short, it is often because of their “leap first” attitude to advance; however, even if they do have shortcomings with their goals, they are quite able to pick themselves off the ground and begin anew. 

They are very enthusiastic and eager to be the first ones in on a project. They make good leaders, but often, not good followers. They are assertive and fearless when it comes to life’s adventures and will stop at nothing to achieve what is important to them. They need to do what they believe is best for themselves first and then take into consideration what impact that may have on others later. “Me first” is often their attitude on matters. This is not to say that they are all about themselves (although to some point this is true). They care about others and in many cases are working towards something that will also benefit others.

Ariens can be self-centered and egotistical, but they truly believe that they know best, much like their counterpart Leo, who is also a fire sign.  However, Leo’s intension comes directly from the heart while Aries drive comes from sheer determination to succeed.  Ariens need to be in charge, and many have their own businesses. Success is important, but the act of going for it is even more significant.  Nothing is worse for the typical Aries individual than to not try.

Aries’ impact on society is to make society realize that what you want in life can be obtained, but you will need to do this yourself and depend on no one else. They arrive at this conclusion because they use this as their moto. 

Aries can be somewhat abrupt in their nature but are also quick to help others.

If you were to form a relationship with an individual with Aries strong in their chart, be ready for action as life will be filled with things to do and will be adventurous, almost to the extreme. You will not have many dull moments with an Aries friend, and they can teach you a thing or two about assertiveness and personal drive.

Happy solar return to our Arien readers.

JUPITER OPPOSITION NATAL MARS

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

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.
