| Jupiter |
In the higher
sense Jupiter is the divine grace, which can fulfill all of our needs
without our seeking. He gives religious merit and spiritual beneficence.
When Jupiter is with us, all life, the entire universe is with us, for
he is that cosmic and Divine beneficence. On a physical level, he is the
planet of health, the planet of wealth. He makes us active in a healthy
way and attunes us with the joy of nature. He gives vigor, vitality and
a strong immune system. The other most important aspect of Jupiter is
that he gives us true knowledge and wisdom as opposed to information based
intelligence, which is the function of Mercury. When Jupiter becomes functionally
malefic and afflicted, it closes our door to true wisdom. It will make
us too materialistic, too enamored of wealth. It will make us proud, give
us too much ego and make us a showman, and self indulgent. He will make
our inner immune system ineffective. His true creative power will get
ineffective in trivial enjoyments. His great benevolence in sharing will
transform into a mindless orgy of pleasure.
