I always loved the saying 'when the student is ready, the teacher will appear', that's certainly always been true in my case.<br /><br />Sunny greetings from Berlin, MadsMads Elung-Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03585898718359870335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881668285026141614.post-90308817246125124342011-09-21T10:12:20.771-05:002011-09-21T10:12:20.771-05:00Hi, Mads!

One thing progressed Jupiter Rx might hold is a greater emphasis on spirituality or inner knowing. Just like Mercury Rx asks us to be inner and brings us so many glitches if we won't cooperate; Jupiter Rx may tend to have you crave reflection and tapping your inner sources of knowledge. By our 50s, we're headed toward wise if we aren't there already! That sort of inner review is the place where higher purpose is usually born.<br /><br />So glad to know you've enjoyed our trip to Jupiter and the 9th House!<br /><br />Always great to hear from you,<br />JoyceJoyce Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462878902674014180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881668285026141614.post-65194696887991229412011-09-21T06:28:18.306-05:002011-09-21T06:28:18.306-05:00Hello Joyce,
great to read your Jupiter articles...Hello Joyce, <br /><br />great to read your Jupiter articles.<br /><br />Im one of the fortunates with a beautiful Jupiter in 26 Gemini in the 9th house. My MC is 2 Cancer, this conjunction is sextiled by my 11th house Leo 26 Moon and my Virgo 2 Sun, and trined by my 2nd house Scorpio 3 Mars. <br /><br />Almost too much of a good thing? I love the search for wisdom, Im thrilled by the exchange with wise elders, and I love to pass on whatever Ive learned. <br /><br />And Ive learned to love the development that all life's crisises have to offer. The first times I had major challenges I just couldnt believe it, since I was so convinced that I was meant to spread joy, fun, and singing songs to the world. But of course, all the hardship has been great blessings, without it I suppose the urge to develop wouldnt have been so strong.<br /><br />If you have time, there's a couple of things Im wondering about.<br /><br />Would you say that a Jupiter conjunct MC more reflects the 10th or still belongs to the 9th or is it bits of both? It feels like the latter generally.<br /><br />My progressive Jupiter will turn retrograde in 10 years, when Im 56. When I was 19 I saw an astrologer who wrote on a paper that I still have, 'your life is now meant to serve a higher purpose'. It seemed pretty far away at that time, but now, after some 27 years, I can much better relate to whatever form that might take. It's a bit out of your article's scope, but something that I do wonder about once in a while.<br /><br />All the best, MadsMads Elung-Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03585898718359870335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881668285026141614.post-89495466395797253762011-09-13T15:51:31.692-05:002011-09-13T15:51:31.692-05:00Eve, you so have nailed the perennial Virgo issue-...Eve, you so have nailed the perennial Virgo issue--do nothing until it's perfect. Even now that I have accepted that nothing is and I launch forward, I still spend untold energy trying to come as close as possible to the ideal.<br /><br />We need to remember that Virgo is an Earth sign and life is messy--and be willing to be ourselves, warts, imperfections and all. I hope you'll go out, teach, make mistakes, and have fun! With that much 9th House, it sure seems to be calling you.<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to Comment, and I'm delighted the post hit home.<br /><br />Take care,<br />JoyceJoyce Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462878902674014180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881668285026141614.post-3209056556244738132011-09-13T14:38:54.228-05:002011-09-13T14:38:54.228-05:00Did you write this for me? :) I have my sun in leo...Did you write this for me? :) I have my sun in leo in the 9th house followed closely by a stellium in virgo of merc, venus & jupiter (also 9th house). I think I might be using that Jupergo tendency to keep myself from being the teacher I'm supposed to be. I.e., if *I* don't have it exactly right I'm not going to do it! Excited to see the next installment. <br /><br />Thanks, eve.mAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881668285026141614.post-12729027597858146992011-09-09T15:31:21.716-05:002011-09-09T15:31:21.716-05:00Hi, LB!

Glad you're enjoying this little Jupiter marathon. :)<br /><br />It sounds to me like you've got a great handle on your own Jupiter configuration. I think many of us prefer love expressed to dogma, and I really appreciate how you put that!<br /><br />Hope this finds you well. I'm in my usual Jupiter trine Mars overdo, but at least I'm having fun!<br /><br />Great to hear from you and to hear how Jupiter works for you,<br />JoyceJoyce Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462878902674014180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881668285026141614.post-86923676633503151152011-09-09T15:10:04.264-05:002011-09-09T15:10:04.264-05:00Hi Joyce – Long time no talk to.:) I’ve been enjo...Hi Joyce – Long time no talk to.:) I’ve been enjoying your posts on Jupiter and the 9th and am looking forward to Part 3; I hope my comment isn't better saved until then.<br /><br />My retrograde Gemini Mars (exactly conjunct my Part of Fortune) is placed in my 9th (conjunct the MC and square 12th house Pluto, which is conjunct my Ascendant), while my Jupiter in Scorpio sits in the 3rd and is conjunct both Mercury and Neptune in Scorpio (sextile my 12th house Pluto) – these are just a few of the aspects. I think my placements work best when I direct my energies, through words and deeds (as well as my Reiki paws), to help clarify and support meaningful, authentic and compassionate spiritual/political/social action. The irony is that I’m not at all political, although I do care about results, so I try to advocate in support of certain issues. <br /><br />I learn through my everyday experiences and communications, and am not afraid to delve deeply in order to thoroughly understand the truth beyond superficial appearances – really, I haven’t had much of a choice, although I’m grateful for my experiences. Venus (ruler of my own 2nd house Venus/North Node/Sun in Libra) rules the cusp of my Taurus 9th, and I think this describes my overall philosophical/spiritual approach to life, which is the value of LOVE expressed in practical ways. I don’t place my faith in rhetoric or dogma.<br /><br />You’re right about the education thing – I’ve always preferred short-term courses that teach practical skills.:)LBnoreply@blogger.com
