“Big-hearted luck in love and joy”
Here’s what to do and not do when you have a Venus conjunct Jupiter transit. Below that are some interesting things about this transit.
Avoid During This Transit
- Don’t overspend or splurge: This transit can make you want to treat yourself a little too much, so be careful with your money!
- Avoid overcommitting socially: Saying “yes” to every invite or party might seem fun, but it can leave you exhausted or stretched thin.
- Don’t make big promises: You might feel extra optimistic, but try not to commit to things you can’t realistically deliver.
- Be careful with risky investments: Venus and Jupiter together can make you feel lucky- sometimes a bit too lucky. Skip gambling and high-stake bets.
- Don’t ignore your health: With all the indulgence energy, there’s a temptation to go overboard with food, drink, or sweets.
- Avoid being overly generous: Giving is great, but make sure you’re not giving away more than you can afford- whether it’s money, time, or energy.
- Don’t brush off red flags in relationships: This vibe is so positive that you might ignore problems or give people too many chances.
- Don’t assume things will just work out on their own: It’s an easy-breezy kind of transit, but some things still need real effort and planning.
Do During This Transit
- Say yes to new opportunities. During this transit, luck and good vibes are on your side, so it’s a great time to take chances and try new things.
- Socialize and make new friends. You’ll probably feel extra friendly and charming, so go to parties, meetups, or just hang out more with others.
- Show gratitude and generosity. Giving back feels extra rewarding now, so help out someone or donate to a good cause.
- Treat yourself. Buy that little thing you want, pamper yourself, or plan a special day- it’ll probably bring you more joy than usual.
- Travel or plan a trip. Venus and Jupiter together make journeys and adventures super fun and meaningful (even if it’s just exploring your own city).
- Express your feelings. This is a great time for love, so tell people how much you care about them, start something romantic, or mend relationships.
- Create or appreciate art. Try painting, music, visiting a museum, or just enjoying beauty wherever you find it.
- Learn and grow. Start a new class, read about something that excites you, or listen to a podcast that expands your mind.
- Practice self-confidence and optimism. The energy of this transit can help you see the best in yourself and others, so don’t be afraid to think big!

What’s interesting about this transit?
When Venus makes a conjunction with your natal Jupiter, most folks talk about luck, love, and good fortune. But there are some old-school, lesser-known interpretations from ancient astrology books that bring a deeper angle to this celestial event:
- “The Cup Overfloweth”: In some Renaissance texts, it was thought that this transit could literally indicate a feast- times when your table, pantry, or coffers get unexpectedly filled up, or you might suddenly host or be invited to grand gatherings.
- The Charitable Visitation: Old Persian astrologers said this aspect could bring visitors (sometimes unexpected ones) bearing gifts or offers for mutual benefit, as Venus and Jupiter together boost hospitality and generosity.
- Musical Blessings: Medieval sources sometimes tie this transit to successful performances or public recognition for musicians, dancers, or artists- especially when Venus is in the 5th or 10th house.
- The Lucky Forgiveness: Ancient texts suggest debts could be forgiven or old quarrels easily resolved, especially if there’s been tension with in-laws or family through marriage.
- “Love’s Pilgrimage”: Hellenistic astrology sometimes mentioned this transit as promising a “favorable journey for love or learning”- maybe quite literally, as in getting to travel for romance or scholarship opportunities.
- Blessed Unions: Some Byzantine astrologers believed this transit could coincide with engagement or a formal agreement, particularly contracts that are beneficial in the long run.
- Unexpected Patrons: There are mentions of “wealthy strangers” showing up to sponsor your plans or art when Jupiter and Venus shake hands in the sky together.
Experiencing This Transit
When Venus transits over your natal Jupiter, you’ll probably notice the world feels a little warmer and kinder. Your confidence gets a boost, and life offers up more little joys- sometimes big ones! Things that normally feel like a stretch might come together easier, and even strangers can seem friendlier. It’s a generous transit, but that generosity has two sides.
Challenges during this transit
- Going Overboard: It’s easy to overindulge- think big spending sprees, overeating, or saying “yes” to every invitation or opportunity. The high spirits can make it hard to know your limits.
- Taking Luck for Granted: You might assume everything will work out just because things feel great, which means you might skip over planning, details, or practical concerns. This is a classic transit for making promises (or taking on commitments) you can’t keep.
- Ignoring Red Flags: The rosy glow can blind you to potential problems in relationships or deals. You might overlook someone’s faults or make excuses for bad behavior because you want to see the good.
- Careless Generosity: Giving or sharing more than you actually have- financially, emotionally, or with your time- can leave you stretched thin if you’re not careful.
Opportunities during this transit
- Good Fortune: This is a fantastic time for asking for help, applying for jobs, making pitches, or starting creative projects- you’ve got that extra sparkle that makes people say “yes.”
- Building Connections: Relationships of all sorts are smoother. This is an awesome window for mending fences, making new friends, or starting a new romance. People just want to be around your positive vibe.
- Creative Juice: Artistic inspiration gets a real boost, and any projects related to art, music, design, or even social media are favored. If you want to start a new hobby or showcase your talents, go for it now.
- Travel & Learning: Now’s the time to say “yes” to a trip, sign up for a class, or dip your toe into anything that expands your horizons- both literally and figuratively.
- Receiving Gifts: Sometimes luck shows up as unexpected gifts, bonuses, good news, or opportunities that just seem to land on your lap, so keep your eyes open for blessings from “out of the blue.”
- Forgiveness & Peace: If you’ve been holding onto hurt or grudges, this transit makes it a lot easier to let go, reach out, and move forward with more peace and less baggage.
