Why Is Astrology’S Venus-Jupiter Odd Today?

A horoscope is an astrological chart or diagram representing the positions of the Sun, Moon, planets, and astro. It is often used to predict our future and can include a Venus-Jupiter minor square, which adds a layer of restlessness to later day’s astrology. This transit may lead to seeking more from pleasures, money, or relationships.

In today’s astrological landscape, Mars and Jupiter are conjunct, which could influence opportunities that you didn’t know were there for you to consider. Venus, the planet of relationships, art, values, and money, goes retrograde every 18 months for about six weeks. During these periods, you are usually challenged to engage in conversations and meet new allies and connections.

Venus, the lesser benefic, and Jupiter, the major benefic, are scheduled to connect on March 1 at 9:36pm PT and March 2 at 12:36am ET. In astrology, the inner planets of Venus and Mars are referred to as “personal planets”. These retrogrades are generally felt more within our lives.

The Venus-Jupiter conjunction in Taurus is strong on the 22nd, so capitalize on this opportunity if possible. All month, Venus sits low in the west following sunset, while Saturn is visible all night. Jupiter and Mars rise in the couple of hours after midnight and are visible.

In October 2024, Jupiter will shine brightly near the bright stars Capella and Aldebaran, and also nearby the Pleiades star cluster. This page brings you face-to-face with the heavens as they are today, now, and the next day.
