Sun Square Jupiter

Square of the Sun: One should never blame the mirror under any circumstances. The square of the Sun places the planet under the impact of disharmonious impulses of human will and imperative external circumstances. At the same time, the person, of course, does not tend to consider their volitional expressions disharmonious, and at a low level, they will not notice their own rudeness, harshness, or incompetence, but will keenly sense these qualities in the environment and other people when the planet’s principle is activated. At the second and third levels of square processing, the person may feel as though they have external and internal enemies of the planetary principle, whose goal is to prevent them—sometimes in the crudest form—from manifesting. For example, with a square of the Sun to the Moon, the person will periodically, as if against their will, make rude mistakes and tactless remarks in dealing with women and may secretly fear and dislike them, while at the same time experiencing a strong pull toward them, since the inner image of the mother-woman will be significantly distorted and active. If the Sun is in Aries, aggression and sharpness are likely; if in Pisces, false positions and false initiatives with unpleasant consequences, and so on. Here, the karmic program is that the person is prescribed strict limitations on the freedom of volitional expression and initiative in the spheres governed by the planet, while higher manifestations of the solar principle are required—constant impersonal attention to what is happening in the planet’s spheres. External initiative is permitted only when forced by circumstances, and even then in minimal measure, since it generally leads to disharmonious consequences. From the perspective of inner development, this aspect is very promising in terms of acquiring (in the sphere of the planet’s influence) true power over oneself and transitioning to service to a higher egregore, which means a more creative and internally free life. With good energy, one can attempt to master the disharmonious external will and redirect it away from oneself toward others—an aspect of black teachers, especially with a pronounced square of the Sun to higher planets. Processing yields the ability to work subtly, following the faintest indications of a high egregore, to weave the finest threads of karma, sometimes touching distant futures. Square of Jupiter: True greatness does not need proof, only measurement. The square of Jupiter promises the planet much... unfortunately, most often these promises are where it ends. In the spheres governed by the planet, the person feels their greatness—not only potential but actual—but the latter is generally not seen by others or is met with doubt, while the former somehow never manages to manifest. The square of Jupiter grants the planet expansion, but not the kind the person desires: either in the wrong direction, in a foreign style, or simply not what they expected; at least, that is how it seems to them. This square (which can be called the aspect of Lucifer) gives the temptation of pride, superficiality, and too-easy attainment of things not quite what the person wanted and certainly not what they need for evolutionary development. In the planet’s spheres, the person is characterized by a constant superficial interest in “higher matters,” philosophical generalizations, and abstract-religious approaches, but they tend to stop precisely at the point where something truly important and interesting begins for them—something that does not appear as a luxurious Jupiterian gift but requires minimal concentrated effort. For example, a square of Venus–Jupiter with an accented Jupiter may produce a person who attracts a great deal of love, appears beautiful, interesting, and unusual at first glance, but in concrete romantic relationships turns out to be entirely full of themselves, their beauty, and general splendor, utterly incapable (and unwilling) to cast even a fleeting glance at their partner, which ultimately results in a sense of complete loneliness and hopelessness in social (not to mention emotional and sexual) connections, while their self-conceit remains undiminished. Karmically, this aspect means the requirement (in the planet’s spheres) to learn to treat gifts and doors opening in fate very cautiously and carefully, to understand that they imply further work and are ultimately intended for the world, not the person themselves. At a low level, in the relevant areas, the person tends to (if there is the slightest opportunity) play the role of a generous benefactor, which succeeds for them exceptionally poorly, since their self-interest and inadequacy or uselessness of their generosity are transparently visible, and their overall clumsiness evokes more irritation than pity or gratitude (the latter will likely greatly disturb the person). Processing yields the rare ability to use one’s luck karmically correctly, to refuse false opportunities and temptations, and to receive the priceless gift of true spiritual assistance, as well as the vision of similar problems in others and the ability (in the planet’s spheres) to guide another onto the true path, showing them the karmic role of their temptations and seductions, and especially their personal arrogance and pride.

They often contribute to the formation of arrogance and extreme egocentrism - such a person tends to think that they can do whatever they want. However, if they manage to establish a balance with commonly accepted norms and clearly define priorities in goals and methods, they can decisively and persistently achieve their desired goals. Often, such people exhibit unfounded boundless optimism and a tendency to excessive indulgence in food and sexual pleasures, as well as alcohol abuse. Frequently, such people are convinced that they are unlucky, and often, criminal and civil-law intrigues are spun around them (not without their participation - conscious or unconscious). They often suffer losses due to conflicts and quarrels, frequently parting with property due to thoughtless debts, so their well-being and material prosperity are constantly under threat. Difficulties of a professional nature are associated with excessive pride and haughtiness, as well as a tendency to overexertion, prejudices, and excessive extravagance. Often, the health of such people turns out to be weak, which is related to a violation of liver and cardiovascular system activity. Frequently, such people turn out to be kind, but deeply unhappy, often convinced that they are poor and deprived by fate. Usually, they have an exaggerated opinion of themselves. A lack of self-discipline and patience is noted, they are sometimes foolishly generous, immoderately magnanimous, prone to making thoughtless actions and losing authority due to reckless actions. They always want to achieve everything without taking the time to think and without being willing to make an effort to discipline themselves and organize the situation. Often, they promise much more than they can realistically do, which to a significant extent undermines their reputation.

Opposition, quadrature: here we should, on the contrary, add a bit of radicalism. The desire to see oneself as important and indispensable can develop into delusions of grandeur. A person is not satisfied with what he has; he is always sure that the height of his position does not at all correspond to the greatness of his merits. He becomes obsessive, demands with all his might a worthy reward, complains to the whole world for not being recognized, not understood, not appreciated. Suspicious, self-centered, he does not see beyond his own nose. Therefore, often he can only reject and criticize what is inaccessible to him, that is, the power, the power of others, or resort to dubious and even illicit methods to achieve them. The basis is always a rebellion against the authority of the paternal model.

An explosive character, prone to adventure and reckless pursuits, rebellious, aggressive, obstinate, overly independent and freedom-loving, proud, frivolous, careless, self-confident, underestimating dangers, leading to miscalculations. Wasteful, reckless, eccentric, disdainful of social conventions, irritable, hot-tempered, fond of luxury, and unjust. If a person works on themselves, these aspects can produce a champion of justice, a fighter against the evil and vices of society, the injustice of superiors, a desire to sacrifice one's well-being for the sake of others, fearlessness, courage, determination, nobility, honesty, directness, and frankness.

An exaggerated self-image and a desire to achieve great things without discipline or reflection lead to disappointment when attempting to expand one's sphere of influence. A defensive reaction is pronounced egotism. One must learn patience, developing the qualities of Saturn, gaining experience and discipline; this will take time, but will bring success. There is a tendency toward extravagance in matters of houses and signs. One must beware of foolish optimism and rash actions, and develop one's personality. They are generous indiscriminately, but often with an ulterior motive. Restlessness and a love of change are dangerous.

The child may exhibit boundless optimism. Or the child may have an exaggerated opinion of themselves and their abilities, a desire to achieve much without discipline and reflection. This leads to disappointment when trying to expand their sphere of influence. One needs to learn patience, gain experience and discipline; this will take time, but will bring success. The child sometimes feels that the father expects too much from them, and then the child may constantly "embellish" the truth about their successes in order to hear the father's words of recognition and praise.

You tend to be stubborn and unable to make solid career choices. You get carried away and go off in directions contrary to your actual needs. Your judgment in vocational matters is often off, sending you on a wild goose chase. In addition, there is possible difficulty with authorities and the law and/or differences with older people. To use an old adage, you can (at times) be your own worst enemy. The advice of a trusted friend regarding career is to be recommended.
