With Jupiter moving into Cancer on July 13, 2001 we can all expect our luck to change in various ways depending on where this lucky planet is within your individual birth chart. It will stay there until it goes into Leo on August 1, 2002.
Jupiter is THE planet of opportunity, abundance and luck; but it is also attributed to excess, over-confidence and weight gain. The least a person can expect under the influence of this planet is an increase in optimism wherever it is found in the birth chart.
Keywords that can be associated with Jupiter include: foreign matters; long distance travel; educational concerns; legal affairs; horses; large animals; religion; publishers and publishing. Sometimes when this planet is activated, a person involved in the above areas may actually enter your life rather than being directly affected yourself through these matters. For example, a teacher or lawyer may become significant in the areas of life accented within your own birth chart.
Anyway, let's have a look at where you can look for good fortune during the next twelve months (as well as watching out for overdoing things)! Remember that you can read your Rising Sign as well as your Sun Sign.
Cancer
When Jupiter entered Gemini in July 2000 it entered your 12th House which enabled you to tune into the spiritual and religious areas of your life. Even though the benefits that came to you under this influence may not have been as obvious as with other placements, it would have given you the opportunity to learn a lot about yourself without encountering the usual fear or resistance.
Since Jupiter moved into Cancer your sense of optimism for the future and adventure has been sparked off. Some of the ways this planet's lucky influences may help you make a new start include a new start in relation to education, legal and/or travel matters. On a physical level you may need to keep an eye on your weight and watch for any unusual lumps and bumps on your body.
Because Jupiter is quite literally 'on top of you', your view of the people and situations that enter your life now may be a little difficult to see clearly. The full benefits of this lucky time in your life may not become apparent until Jupiter moves out of your sign into Leo.
In the meantime, don't turn down an offer or opportunity to expand your life until you have investigated it's full potential! Keep this in mind when thinking about matters relating to education, foreign, spiritual and/or legal matters (or people involved in these fields).
