Dr.Nikki's Zodiac:
Jupiter
Jupiter is the first of the gas giants in our solar
system. We are still learning more about this beautiful
planet from projects such as “Galileo.”  Many of us hold memories of awe and
wonder as we watched Schumacher-Levy 9 create huge scars larger than our
own planet on gaseous Jupiter.  There are astronomers who spend their entire
lives studying the intricacies of this planet.  

Named for the ruler of the Roman Pantheon of Gods, the planet Jupiter rules
the higher thoughts.  Jupiter was God of the skies, ruler of the air.  For those
more familiar with the Greek mythologies – think Zeus.  Jupiter rules the
intellectual within all of us.  Jupiter’s placement says much about how you
acquire and interpret knowledge.  

Your basic philosophies and ideals are represented within Jupiter’s placement
in your chart.  Also known as the Planet of Blessings, Jupiter is strongly
aligned with “Lady Luck.”   As the God Jupiter was thought by the Romans to
be all-powerful, symbolizing the higher virtues of honor, wisdom and acting in
good faith the planet which bears his name carries the same admirable traits.  
Thought to be benevolent to humans Jupiter was believed to lend a personal
hand in the areas of the worldly essences.  Jupiter rules the
intellect…knowledge and earnestness.

Power and high positions were also aligned with the God of Gods.  It is to
Jupiter that you should look for opportunity and effecting positive change.  
Jupiter rules how you use the opportunities that life presents to you.  Jupiter is
the planet of blessings, but it is with the knowledge of the self given to us
through the first five planets that we can truly capitalize on the blessings that
Jupiter bestows.  

The wisdom found in Jupiter is the wisdom of realizing the blessings that are at
hand.  Beautiful Jupiter will help you be receptive to both the opportunities and
blessings life provides.
