Jupiter in Aquarius
Jupiter enters Aquarius on January 6th, 2009 and truth, honesty, ideals and the humanitarian spirit have entered the arena of our lives.

Interesting! Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet of the unexpected, exciting, idealistic, and freedom loving. Jupiter, the planet of expansion, has entered the constellation of Aquarius. A marriage made in heaven. Jupiter does not leave Aquarius until January 18th, 2010. This Jupiter cycle takes about 13 years to return to this position.

Inspiration is a given with Aquarius. We will find ourselves willing to give more of ourselves to others. Aquarius is a Fixed Air sign and considered to be very mental, stubborn and a bit eccentric. You will find that you are more open in these areas and less likely to hold much of a mean spirit.
