Jupiter

The Jupiter card in the Cosmic Cousins Astro Oracle offers us a meditation on the soulful evolution of Jupiter, the planet of expansion, wisdom, and abundance. This card invites us to explore the themes of accumulating wisdom in this lifetime, abundance of opportunity, optimism, philosophy and belief, the ability to contemplate philosophical questions, higher learning, growth, generosity, and abundance. As the traditional ruling planets for both Sagittarius and Pisces, Jupiter is associated with religion, spirituality, cultural understanding and world travel.

Affirmation – "I embrace the abundance of opportunities that come my way. I am open to learning, growth, and wisdom. I embrace the blessings of life."

Somatic Embodiment – Bring your awareness to your thighs and hips. Visualize a grounding energy in this area, connecting you to stability and abundance. Once you have made that connection, begin to bring awareness to your auric field. Allow a color to intuitively flow to you. Breathe this color into the energy in and around your body. With each breath, use the first two sentences from the affirmation above as you inhale. As you exhale, relax the body and use the third sentence of the affirmation to open yourself up to receive.
