Jupiter Square or Opposite Sun
© 2004 Curtis Manwaring
Transiting Jupiter square or opposite your natal Sun. This transit usually fires the ambition and the desire to get ahead. Just be careful that you don't push too hard to get your own way now. Theres a tendency to overexert yourself and take on more than you can handle, so try to exercise moderation. Relationships with authority/father figures might be strained now. Usually at some point during this transit your fortitude is challenged so that you must make a stand for yourself. Try to do so without compromising who you are and in about a year your purpose in life will become clearer.
