Jupiter in aspect to Ascendant

With Jupiter conjunct the Ascendant, you are the epitome of optimism. You do nothing in moderation because you are always hopeful that some of your excesses will work out for the best in the long run. You have an endless source of ideas with which to plan your success, and you are sure that you will succeed. With boundless faith in your abilities and a certain measure of luck, you don't worry about tomorrow and you care even less about yesterday. You are ambitious, but in satisfying your ambitions you can bite off more than you can chew. You exaggerate your own importance, which can be a serious liability if you are seeking supporters in your endeavors. No-one likes a braggart or a person who overestimates his worth. You are inspiring to those under you, but you should avoid making promises to them unless you are sure you can deliver.

You are generous, kind, sympathetic, benevolent, and the delight of anyone seeking a contribution in a fund-raising campaign, since you are a 'soft touch'. Generally you are well informed about subjects that have an important bearing on your professional goals as well as about matters of general interest. You have the highest regard for institutions of learning, and with your providential nature you will probably endow some school. You are too open with private or classified information, and if your competition beats you with a new product, the idea probably came originally from you. Try to be more conservative and serious. Your appetite needs curbing too, because you are inclined to put on weight, especially with advancing years.

Jupiter conjunct Ascendant: Usually optimism knows no bounds when Jupiter is conjunct the Ascendant: we like to walk on the sunny side of the street. A cheerful attitude is displayed to the outside world and most people find us lovable. We have no difficulty in showing cordiality and warmth, and our brightness encourages others.

The joviality and generosity of Jupiter can manifest freely here, but so can the desire for freedom. We need acres of living space and find restrictions very hard to bear. Inwardly, too, the spirit of expansion is at work. Even when we are young, we are interested in everything but should be careful not to turn into know-it-alls. Moralizing and telling others what to do (while we, for our part, smugly go on our way) are two of the possibilities with this conjunction; which otherwise has enough optimism and resilience to be full of promise.

Jupiter conjunct Ascendant: People born with this aspect were born into fairly comfortable circumstances. They tend to be over expansive, or they tend to over-relate to the situations they become personally involved in.

The Ascendant indicates 'our best foot forward', and Jupiter there indicates a tendency to throw all the energies into each new beginning. Life is not approached with caution unless the Ascendant sign is a cautious one. It bring the quality of 'too much' into the life¬style. In order to use the energy constructively, the concept of 'too much' will have to be thought about and determined where it occurs in the life. 'Too much' can be determined by the reactions of others to whatever we are relating to in an overly exuberant manner.

Jupiter conjunct Ascendant: Individuals with Jupiter conjunct the Ascendant go out into the world eager to embrace as much of it as possible. These people have an expectant attitude to life, and wish to go out into the world and explore it. The houses whose cusps are in Sagittarius and, perhaps to a lesser extent, Pisces will play a part in determining the areas of life in which the individual will focus these explorative urges.

Jupiter rising people often come across as being buoyant and optimistic, and as taking a philosophical stance upon life's trials and tribulations. This is the person who presents a happy face to the world, even if the rest of the chart is descriptive of a more cautious, serious and doubtful individual. They approach others seemingly without thinking twice about it. Those with Jupiter on the Ascendant often appear somewhat arrogant; in some signs much more than in others. Often the individual sees everyone else as very positive, confident and sure of themselves and cultivates a similar persona. If the rest of the chart describes an extrovert personality, this placement will increase this tendency. Shyer individuals may be able to be quite 'up front' and confident amongst strangers but rather less so with people they know a little.

The type would also often like to appear as educated or sophisticated in the ways of the world; well travelled, physically or mentally. The journey in life is perhaps to do with exploration of the self, and this self-exploration and discovery will often take place whilst the individual is either in an educative setting or abroad. As a young child, the Jupiter rising individual may have travelled a great deal or been exposed to different cultures or belief systems.

People with Jupiter on the Ascendant-Descendant axis are usually great advice-givers. Perhaps there is a need to be seen as both knowledgeable and generous.

Jupiter sextile Ascendant

The sextile from Jupiter to the Ascendant shows that you are enthusiastic in everything you do and optimistic that you will succeed. You enjoy meeting people, and your cheerful outlook on life makes you popular with your many acquaintances. You stimulate those you deal with to support your endeavors, and they co-operate whenever they can. You are generous with your possessions and always ready to lend a helping hand to those who need assistance. On many subjects, you can speak with authority because you are often as well informed as professionals in the field. You strive for excellence at all times and admire that quality in others as well.

People are generally impressed with the extent of your knowledge. With your depth of understanding, you are able to advise others in their affairs, for which they are usually grateful. You communicate well and express yourself eagerly in matters that are of great interest to you. Communications could be a rewarding medium for you; writing, public speaking, or education would be excellent outlets for your creative talents. You are also a good listener, realizing that continued growth depends on absorbing as much additional information as possible. Although you realize that you can never know everything, you intend to be as well-informed as possible.

It is difficult for you to say 'no' when someone asks for help. But you occasionally try to do more than you should, so try to relax more frequently. You think of rest only as a last alternative to the many interests that hold your attention. In your eagerness to serve the needs of others, you tend to burn the candle at both ends.

You will always succeed in a partnership enterprise because you make such a heavy investment to assure its success. You don't shirk your responsibilities and may at times volunteer to make up for someone else's inability to do his share.

Jupiter trine or sextile Ascendant: The harmonious aspects between Jupiter and the Ascendant have much the same effects as the conjunction. We radiate cheerfulness, optimism and cordiality, and cultivate a wide circle of acquaintances. When Jupiter, with its gift for improving and remedying, is in easy relationship with the Ascendant, we like to be helpful to others - not in a subservient way, but out of simple kindness. 'People are entitled to be themselves' is our motto. Love of freedom and the need to be able to develop freely are two of our prominent characteristics.

Although, even with the easy aspects, we have a tendency to lecture and moralize, we generally manage to do it in a manner that others can accept without being offended. We enjoy propagating ideals and a vision of the future, and like talking about the things that enthuse us - particularly those that widen our horizons, either literally by travel, or metaphorically by immersion in philosophical or general human concerns.

Jupiter trine or sextile Ascendant: People born with the sextile or trine relate to others by using a similar energy to that of the Ascendant. They tend to open up (Jupiter) in a manner complementary to the persona they have put forth.

Jupiter square Ascendant

Jupiter square the Ascendant shows that you never act in moderation and are self-indulgent to an extreme. Lacking sufficient self-control, you do everything to excess, and only realize later how much time and effort you've wasted.

You have big ideas that you want to work out and capitalize on. Although you hope that your parents will provide the funds you need to develop your ideas, you are prepared with other alternatives if they can't help you. You understand the importance of having financial reserves available. You also know that you can always concert your creative abilities into cash by developing and using them constructively.

Secretly you long for the time when you can enjoy all the comforts and benefits that you have denied yourself in pursuing your goals. This longing drives you to get the largest possible return from your creative talents so you can enjoy your retirement years free from financial worry. You are willing to make whatever contributions in effort and hard work are required to achieve that objective. You also have a big heart, and people take advantage of you without your realizing it.

You need self-discipline so you don't take on more obligations than you can handle. You know how to fraternize with important people to gain favors and access to important positions. You want to reach the top in your career as soon as possible, but you may not fully realize how unstable a top position can be. Remember, it is only as secure as your willingness to endure self-denial in holding it.

It is important for you to work in partnership with others so that you can consolidate all your talents and resources. However, you will have to modify your desires to be consistent with group objectives.

Jupiter square or opposite Ascendant: With the hard aspects, we are strongly attracted by the grandiose, the jovial and the magnanimous, and this shows in our attitude to others. But we tend to overdo things. We need constant reminders to hold the energy of the tense aspects in check; sometimes, if we wish to avoid problems with others, it is wise to be a little more subdued.

Often we radiate much more self-confidence, not to say self-will, than we might imagine, and acquaintances may see us as arrogant. Yet, with this same self-confidence, plus a big dose of optimism, we can do much good if we take care to create a genial impression and not a haughty one.

The love of doing things on a grand scale may deteriorate into a fondness of luxury and display; equally, we can become preoccupied with immaterial things and can spend time promoting intangible values. In ways like these, the urge to be expansive can easily get out of control.

Jupiter square or opposite Ascendant: When Jupiter squares the Ascendant, the relationship needs argue with the persona. New experience will begin with difficulty, for the square indicates a frustration of energy. These individuals may not be conscious of the fact that their response to new relating experience will be perceived differently by those viewing the Ascendant reactions.

When Jupiter opposes the Ascendant, a compromise between new beginnings, the persona and the ability to relate to what is being projected becomes an issue in the life. Usually the opposition is active between the first and seventh houses (the personal projection versus the needs of a partner). The energy can be handled constructively when the signs are understood.

Jupiter square or opposite Ascendant: Jupiter in hard aspect to the axis suggests that the individual's beliefs are at odds with the outer image that he or she may have cultivated.

Jupiter trine Ascendant

Jupiter trine the Ascendant means that you always expect to succeed. You find it possible to make grandiose plans for the future, because you know how to capitalize on your creative abilities as tools with which to seek your goals in life. Knowing how is not the same as actually doing something, however, and your success may be delayed by the delusion that you can succeed without a lot of hard work. You like the good life and all its comforts, which can be yours if you are willing to make an enormous investment of personal effort.

Although you have high expectations, you secretly fear you won't succeed in winning over your competitors. You overestimate other people's skills and underestimate your own, which can lead you to have a defeatist attitude. Concentrate your efforts on gaining excellence in what you do, so that you can dismiss these anxieties.

The people you work for regard you more highly than you think. Hoping to gain their respect, you attempt to do more than your share in the tasks assigned to you. You admire those who achieve distinction and realize that you must be fully informed if you hope to win similar honors. However, you tend to dawdle when you should discipline yourself in working toward your goals. By indulging in personal pleasures to excess, you waste energy and time that could be used more constructively. Because you are careless about managing your financial affairs, you sometimes can't avail yourself of opportunities when they arise.

Your talents are needed in many fields, but unless you learn to establish your priorities, you will waste your gifts in non-productive enterprises. You are too generous in sharing your ideas with others when you should develop them for your own benefit. Avoid borrowing money if you can; because of your self-indulgent nature, it may be painful to repay unless you learn to have greater self-control.

Jupiter quincunx Ascendant

Jupiter inconjunct the Ascendant shows that you are generous in offering yourself in service to others. Although you really want to be helpful to anyone who needs your assistance, you lack the self-discipline to regulate your affairs so that you can help. You think nothing of making promises without having the slightest idea whether or not you can fulfill them. You want to do so much that it is nearly impossible for you to remember what you promise to do and for whom. You insist on being allowed to indulge in your whims when you feel the urge. Remember, however, that when you offer your services, you are reminding people that they are unable to serve themselves. Don't wear out your welcome, trying to do for others what they are quite capable of doing for themselves.

An enormously talented person, you can do more than three other people together. You have good intentions in seeking your goals, but the recognition you get may come from making many starts and few finishes. Feeling guilty for being blessed with so many creative potentials, you want to feel that you are using them as fully as possible. You will probably waste a lot of effort in unrewarding enterprises until you learn to direct your skills and efforts toward a specific objective, and acquire the determination to stay in one spot long enough to realize your ambitions.

Tender-hearted and genuinely concerned about less fortunate people, you are never too busy to listen to someone with a sob story. But you must take care that you aren't made the scapegoat when others are looking for someone to blame for things going wrong. You have a host of 'fair weather' friends who may suddenly disappear when you need them. This kind of experience should teach you to conserve your resources. You tend to shy away from examining your weaknesses realistically.

Jupiter quincunx Ascendant: Whenever we manifest ourselves in the outside world via the Ascendant, the need to spread our wings obtrudes itself unpredictably; at one moment we are being more grandiose, enthusiastic, boastful and moralizing than intended, and at the next are being extremely helpful and friendly and are hoping to be admired for our niceness. Yet this behavior, too, is temporary, so that (as with any inconjunct) we appear to be very fickle.

What is more, we have problems expressing our outlook and opinions. The inconjunct to the Ascendant is inclined to make us misread situations, to say the wrong thing at the wrong time, and to suffer from misunderstandings. This in itself can create uncertainty. Nevertheless, we can learn how to combine the astro-influences after some crisis has helped is to understand their effects; and then the inconjunct can be extremely stimulating.

Jupiter opposite Ascendant

Jupiter opposition the Ascendant indicates that you are generous toward your associates and civil with competitors. You are polished and refined, sometimes to the point that others may be suspicious of your motives. You prefer to associate with people who seem to be sure of themselves and their goals. Unless you see a future in it, you refuse to bind yourself to any obligation. You attract fortunate people to you, and you share their optimistic feeling that you will become successful. Just as an investment broker deals in financial resources, you deal in the resources of people - who they are and what they can accomplish for themselves and for you. You pride yourself on your good judgment, but you ignore the fact that you are a taker, not a giver, except when it suits your long-range purposes.

It isn't easy for you to establish roots, partly because you feel that without them you are more free to take advantage of opportunities. An 'idea' person, you know how to exploit your creative potentials to derive the most benefit from them. You are a good conversationalist and can liven up any discussion with tales that may be tall stories but are never dull or boring.

Your desire to achieve was probably stimulated by your early home life, which may not have been totally satisfying. Because of that fact, you resolved to better yourself and your circumstances whenever possible. You try to convince yourself that given the chance you would show people how capable you are. But you do this because you don't want to be reminded of your material and emotional responsibilities. You know you should settle down and admit that you need to relate to others in order to succeed.

Your greatest problem is that you use people to serve your personal objectives. You must learn that being generous is as beneficial to you as accepting the generosity of others.

Jupiter opposite Ascendant: Jupiter conjunct Descendant often suggests that an individual teams up with a person from a different background or culture from their own, or sometimes with a teacher or religious person. Education often forms an important aspect of one-to-one relationships, with the individual either seeking to educate the other or to be educated by him / her. There is a need for a certain amount of space with Jupiter on both ends of the axis. At the 7th house end, the individual is often particularly keen on exploring the whole realm of relationship and may not like being tied to just one person. In any event, it is through relationship that the Jupiter-Descendant person finds his or her own faith and confidence. He or she may look to someone else to provide these qualities or be able to offer them to others. Sometimes the person projects 'God' onto other people and sometimes he / she wishes to be treated as being Godlike and wonderful him- or herself.

Jupiter square or opposite Ascendant: Jupiter in hard aspect to the axis suggests that the individual's beliefs are at odds with the outer image that he or she may have cultivated.
