I’ve had, just in the last ten days, more than a dozen people ask me that question. There’s certainly a temptation, especially with astrology, to blame the planets for problems here. What’s going on? Jupiter is almost stationary – relative to our home here on Earth.
A common expression, around here? “Just fixin’ to,” as in, for those not familiar with the local vernacular, “Just about to approach handling said (situation, task, job, endeavor).”
Jupiter is “just fixin’ to” turn around. Dramatic, pregnant pause. He’s moving slow, and he’s associated with Lady Luck. The Fates, spinning their webs, the yarns of our lives. Or, like that expression so aptly sums it up, “just fixin’ to.”
So it’s not Mercury, he’s not the culprit, it’s Jupiter. Plus the Moon goes dark.
