Print article - Venus and Jupiter

Love here passes through an Olympic dimension; everything must be magic, magnificent, big and in expansion. Imagine Zeus, the great lord of the gods who goes down and becomes Venus: nothing will be able to be ordinary, everything will have to assume a "divine", grandiose and superlative tonality. Love in this case is the great promise and the great hope; it is the adventure that can take life and that we need for our growth and that has gigantic expectations that naturally, at the beginning, seem to come back to you that seem to enlarge your idea of your partner.
Jupiter uses love to lead us into a dimension which overcomes our personal limits: it makes us perceive therefore what we might be if only we trusted our intuitions, our thoughts and our internal world: it puts us in contact with our inner wealth if we are only disposed to it, if only we open our third eye and we begin to … see.
The is this therefore why, during love, those who have Venus - Jupiter feel at their highest ebb: Jupiter wants the maximum, wants something that exceeds our possibilities, and to make us reach these dazzling heights, transforms reality, also shows what is missing, or shows us things from a different perspective, something that there might also be in reality, if only we want it and we believe in it. In mythology Jupiter was changing to manage to conquer; this clearly indicates the potential of this archetype of letting us see what we want to see.
Jupiter loves neither reality nor daily nature; it wants to us guessing in fact what there might beyond this limited perception plan. Through Venus it makes us hope for the unexpected and shows us what might be. Here love must offer a lot and must maintain all the initial possibilities because Jupiter is never content, needs new space, new goals, new promises and new knowledge.
Love must give meaning and to fill life, and this can make it difficult for us to feel really rewarded: Jupiter is magnificent, but it is also insatiable. It is voracious, it must acquire, must swallow, must get rich. It is moreover a love full of Fire, which catches fire, it pushes ahead and then while still ahead, it keeps on hoping, on dilating the look: if nevertheless it realises that is no longer any possibility, that there are no territories to be conquered, or promised and no more development, then disappointment - disillusion enters into the circuit, it loses every stimulus and all interest and deflates, disappointed and emptied until some new vision leads it in search of new shores, new passions, new conquests.
This love needs great gestures, of expansiveness, intense sexuality, nevertheless the risk is also that everything is consumed in a hurry: this is therefore the reason love must leave itself some open spaces, cannot be discovered completely, why what stimulates it and it excites it is the unknown, the unconquered are, and perhaps also those that cannot be conquered: what still has to be seen, discovered, found, and the journey that ends to manage to know it. Jupiter - Venus must light the hope that everything is possible, and until these possibilities are maintained, at least in the psyche, Jupiter is transforms, it shows itself at its best, deceives and is deceived; it believes what there will be, what will be obtained, that the possibilities will come true. Jupiter drags Venus into the world of the vision - imagination and lets us think that what it believes in will happen.
The negative side of this love is the longing, the possession, the domination, the need almost to devour another in an attempt to have everything, to satisfy each wish through the other. This generates great dissatisfaction; it is exactly what happens after a great feast in which the food has not been tasted, it has only been swallowed for avidity and later it gives a useless sense of a gap, of lack of substance. You are very hunger, but no food in the entire world can satisfy you.
