Jupiter Enters Capricorn and Makes us Work for our Luck


The sun may be in Sagittarius but Venus has entered Capricorn and Jupiter is getting ready to enter Capricorn as well.  Venus entered Capricorn on November 25, 2019, inspiring me to tweet:
Jupiter enters Capricorn on December 2, 2019 and remains in Capricorn through December 10, 2020.  Jupiter is considered to be “in fall” in the sign of Capricorn. Jupiter is not considered to be strong in Capricorn because its path to expansion, joy and good luck is restricted by Capricorn’s love of caution and conformity. It tends to put the brakes on expansiveness but it can still bring good fortune to those who are willing to work for it.  Don’t forget that Capricorn is a workaholic sign.  It denotes a major shift in consciousness from Jupiter in Sagittarius.  Jupiter rules Sagittarius, so that transit had a very freewheeling and risk-taking vibe.

Jupiter in Capricorn is more averse to risk-taking and its energy is better utilized by cultivating the skills of perseverance, reliability, practicality, common sense, logic and structuring ourselves. It marks a time for direction, clear goals, making plans, organizing and conducting ourselves with maturity, integrity and a sense of ethics.  Success comes from streamlining, being resourceful and engaging in self-control which encourages us to be self-reliant.  In short, Jupiter in Capricorn makes us work for our luck.  Saturn is in Capricorn for most of 2020, except for when it tiptoes into Aquarius from March 21, 2020 through July 1, 2020.  Saturn permanently enters Aquarius on December 17, 2020. The combination of Saturn and Jupiter in Capricorn helps us to create more joy and pleasure in pursuing our goals.  And don’t forget that Pluto is still in Capricorn helping us to implement transformation.

The major thing to consider with Jupiter transiting Capricorn is which house it will hit in your natal chart.  Jupiter in Capricorn will start in my 3rd house and will conjunct my north node in Capricorn in mid-January 2020.  I know that if I want some good luck in this area of my life (communications, short trips and immediate environment) that I am going to have to work for it because that is what the north node does: it forces you to stretch out of your comfort zone.  I admit that for many years I struggled with having a north node in Capricorn because it seemed alien to me but I am finally learning how to embrace its challenges and stretch out of my comfort zone.  It’s not always easy but it can be immensely rewarding.

As an astrologer, I’ve also been reflecting on previous Jupiter in Capricorn transits.  They occur every 12 years and reflecting on them allows us the opportunity to see patterns in our lives.  The last time Jupiter was in Capricorn was from December 18, 2007 through January 5, 2009.  Yes, there was a major economic downturn back then which saw massive job losses and a financial crisis that has been described as the Great Recession. It stemmed from the collapse of the real estate market and the subprime mortgage crisis.  Could it happen again?  We have a major conjunction of Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn which is exact on January 12, 2020 in 22 degrees of Capricorn, so there is the potential for major shakeups in the areas of finances, politics and institutions.  The shadow side of Jupiter in Capricorn is an attraction to power and those who wield it.  Just remember not to chase it and give away your control during this transit.

The previous Jupiter in Capricorn transits occurred from January 4, 1996 through January 21, 1997 and from January 20, 1984 through February 6, 1985. Personally I experienced some job changes during those Jupiter transits.  I am self-employed now but I’m not ruling out any changes in my business during this transit of Jupiter in Capricorn.

Anyone who has their sun, moon or ascendant in Capricorn will undoubtedly experience a time of great and change and progress in their lives as a result of this Jupiter in Capricorn transit. People with sun in Capricorn will be likely to attract success, recognition and have a surge in terms of their creative juices flowing.  A native with a Capricorn ascendant might feel like they are entering a new phase of life and possibly a new career.  And those with moon in Capricorn could see improvements in their home and family life, including a bigger home. Don’t forget that Jupiter loves to expand whatever it touches.

If you are curious as to how all of these planetary changes will be affecting you, please consider getting an astrological reading.  I am now offering short telephone astrology consultations for 30 minutes which are available for purchase on the Services Offered page of my site. These are extremely affordable at the cost of $35.

I have been doing more work with tarot readings, which I love, so I decided to create a new combination reading which offers the option of a 30 minute astrology consultation with a one question tarot reading for only $50. There is something for everyone and my menu of services can accommodate any budget.

Since I love to talk astrology and believe in making it more available to everyone, I am now offering pay by the minute astrology readings through Click 4Advisor.  Check it out at:




This might be the perfect way for you to get a taste of what astrology can do for you in terms of providing insight into your life during these challenging time.  Obviously the 30 minute readings are the best deal, but you might be surprised by how much you learn in 10 minutes or less from a brief glance at your chart. If I am not available you can always request a callback and I will respond quickly.

My site also offers the opportunity to provide a donation in the amount of your choice to demonstrate your support for my blog and daily astrological insights on Twitter at:


A contribution in any amount is deeply appreciated as gratitude is a daily part of my spiritual practice.

Recently I undertook an intensive life purpose coaching training program and became certified as a Life Purpose Coach.  It was an intense, eye-opening experience that changed my life as it caused me to reflect on the story of my life.  But I left it with feelings of hope and light for the future that I want to share with others.  To that end, I am now offering Life Purpose Coaching to my menu of services.  You can read more about it at:


As an astrologer, I have decided to include an interpretation of the north node by sign. If you are feeling stuck and need some help in getting from Point A to Point B in your quest for making positive changes in your life, please email me at lindasim54@gmail.com to schedule a complementary telephone consultation to discover if you are a good fit for this program.  I look forward to hearing from you.

I am also available for tarot readings in person if you are in the Boston area or by telephone if you are unable to travel to my home in Newton, MA.  I use the Celestial Tarot Deck, which I love because it contains so many astrological symbols.  A tarot reading is another great option for obtaining insight and clarity.

If you are in the Boston area, please consider getting a Reiki treatment at Acupuncture for Everyone in Copley Square to destress, revitalize and remove blockages to healing.  It’s a perfect way to start your weekend off and can also be described as a spa for the soul to boot!   Reiki is the most profound treatment for stress relief because it concentrates on CALMING your body.

For more information on my Reiki services, please see this page on my site:


For my clients who can’t fit Friday into their schedule for a treatment or have difficulty traveling, I have also recently begun doing distance Reiki sessions for them.  I have a conversation with them about what they hope to achieve from a session, we set up a time for the session to take place when they will be in a state to receive healing energy and I follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss their experience and my perception of their blockages.  I have also incorporated a new technique with my distance Reiki treatments since I don’t always have a photo of my client.  I use a teddy bear so that I can scan and focus the healing energy where it is needed. If this appeals to you, please feel free to contact me by email at lindasim54@gmail.com or call me at 617-304-2205.  I am also offering Reiki treatments at my home in Newton, MA on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons and in the Coolidge Corner section of Brookline on Sunday afternoons.  Recently I have added online booking for my Sunday clients on my site.  Check it out at:

I was also featured in the July 3, 2017 edition of Boston Voyager, an online publication that runs a section called Inspiring Stories about local entrepreneurs on its home page.  The Scorpio moon was trining the Cancer sun and Neptune in Pisces on that day, so my story certainly debuted under fitting aspects.  Please feel free to check it out:
