Jupiter aspects
What the tradition holds about the Jupiter at an angle to each of the other bodies. An aspect on its own is geometry; what the older sources actually discuss is a particular pair at a particular angle, and they treat each one as its own subject.
10 pairings curated here, each traced to a work and a page you can open for free. 10 also have a longer piece on what the pairing looks like in a life. Anything involving Pluto is absent and will stay absent: it was discovered in 1930, after every work this site is able to cite.
Jupiter and Sun
- Sun conjunct Jupiter· also written Jupiter conjunct Sun
- Alan Leo reads this as success through hope — the arrival of a teacher or helper, the favour of someone powerful, new social advantages or an unusual opportunity, and a name that grows through philosophy, religion or travel. One 1918 source groups the conjunction with the sextile and trine and describes a sunny and jovial disposition that earns friendship by acts of kindness, and a person everybody trusts because they never betray a trust.

- Sun sextile Jupiter· also written Jupiter sextile Sun
- Sixty degrees apart. Alan Leo writes on the conjunction, the trine and the hard aspects of this pair, and not on the sextile. One 1918 source takes the sextile with the conjunction and trine, and reads the group as a sunny and jovial disposition, liked by nearly everyone met, earning that liking through acts of kindness and through words of sympathy, cheer or hope as the occasion may demand — and as someone trusted because they never betray a trust.

- Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 293
- Sun square Jupiter· also written Jupiter square Sun
- Ninety degrees apart. Alan Leo treats the square with the opposition and calls it not altogether unfortunate: it holds progress back and makes success indirect rather than obvious, with much depending on the signs involved. One 1918 source reads the same pair of aspects as a bombastic and haughty manner with an inordinate love of display, and someone far too fond of the good things of life and selfish about their own comfort.

- Sun trine Jupiter· also written Jupiter trine Sun
- A third of the circle apart. Alan Leo calls this the best possible influence of the pair and reads it as assuring a successful career, working in a more material way than the conjunction while carrying everything the conjunction carries. One 1918 source groups the trine with the conjunction and sextile: a sunny and jovial disposition, widely liked, earning it by acts of kindness and by words of sympathy, cheer or hope as the occasion may demand.

- Sun opposite Jupiter· also written Jupiter opposite Sun
- A hundred and eighty degrees apart. Alan Leo treats the opposition with the square and calls it not altogether unfortunate: progress is retarded and success comes indirectly rather than obviously, with the signs involved doing much to shape it. One 1918 source reads the pair as a bombastic, haughty manner with an inordinate love of display, and someone far too fond of the good things of life and selfish in satisfying their own comforts.

Jupiter and Moon
- Moon conjunct Jupiter· also written Jupiter conjunct Moon
- One 1918 source groups the conjunction with the sextile and trine and reads them as an optimistic, noble and generous disposition — an open-hearted honesty, fairness and friendliness that makes such people universally popular, with lofty ideals and a fruitful imagination. It calls this one of the best aspects in the gamut.

- Moon square Jupiter· also written Jupiter square Moon
- Ninety degrees apart. One 1918 source treats the square with the opposition and reads them as impairing the reasoning faculties, bringing trouble through a lack of forethought, through indecision, or through dishonesty. It finds such people too fond of ostentation and display, and expects slander to follow.
