Jupiter: The Planet of Expansion

 Jupiter – The Planet Of Expansion

Jupiter is the planet of expansion. Named after the Roman god who shares the same name. Beyond sharing a name, the planet and the god share many of the same qualities and attributes.

Jupiter (the god) was the supreme deity of the Roman pantheon. Where magickal astrology is concerned, Jupiter (the planet) is second only to the sun in ruling the heavens.

Roman God Jupiter

Jupiter (the god) is the spirit of thunder, lightning, and weather. He bestows and withholds rain according to his will. Since pre-Christian Rome was agricultural, they relied very heavily on the rain for their prosperity. Thus Jupiter became the god of abundance and fertility. These associations were transferred onto the planet Jupiter.

Jupiter is not the only god associated with this planet, though he is the most commonly thought of since it bears his name. Other gods such as El, Zeus (who is often thought of as closely tied to Jupiter … if not, in fact, the same spirit), Odin, and Thor, as I mentioned in my post titled Magickal Timing.

Except for Thor (who is connected to Jupiter by thunder), most of the gods associated with this planet tend to be the rulers of their respective pantheons. This has significance because it can serve to remind you that Jupiter (the planet) helps you to identify the places in your own life where you can expand your power base as the King or Queen of your life.

Jupiter’s Influence In Astrology

However, the planet Jupiter does not merely give you a sense of your power. It also indicates the places in your life where others will see you shine and recognize your authority. A lot of factors go into deciphering Jupiter’s message about authority and expansion for you.

For example, was Jupiter (the planet) in retrograde when you were born? If so, there’s a message associated with it. If Jupiter was direct, however, there is a separate message for you.

What sign is Jupiter in on your Pre-Natal Chart? Each zodiac sign will hold certain types of influence over the planets, and it will color their messages differently, depending on a variety of factors. (Read about planets in signs)

Another important consideration when attempting to decipher a planet’s message to you is what house the planet resides in on your Pre-Natal Chart.
