dadsnook2000 said:Astrid O and isthmus nekoi, there are no coincidences in terms of your sharing views and practices relative to Jupiter in the 8th house. Each component of the astrological chart has a general meaning. You both have Jupiter in the 8th, you both experience and are aware of that general meaning.
That said, Astrid O, your Jupiter retrograde and Saturn in the 2nd both help to modify the general meaning of Jupiter. Retrogrades often twist or express their meaning in different ways or thru other people. Saturn in the 2nd is a big modifier of your outlook. I think you nailed these conditions quite nicely.
And, isthmus nekoi, your perception of how phases modify your approach to using Jupiter is quite appropriate also.
So, we have two great observations and confirmations here, as well as a good reminder that one component in a chart is not a sure thing. Everything in the chart can play a role in our lives if we let it. Dave
Thanks Dave. It took me so long to post that last reply, you beat me to posting....I will need to go back and look at the other retro planets in my chart, and apply what you said here to them as well.
