I just got wind that Jupiter (the planet of good fortune and luck) is now in the sign of Virgo, as of August 11th. Psychic/Medium and Astrologer Maria Shaw says, “Jupiter in Virgo will affect us all in our own natal charts in some way or another. It will benefit Virgo the most but wherever you have this sign falling in your chart, is where you be luckiest for the next 13 months. Knowing exactly where Jupiter is visiting can help you grow and expand in a new way as Jupiter will not be back in Virgo again for 13 years.” Let me show you how you can find this information. Go to http://astro.cafeastrology.com and get your natal chart done–you’ll need to know your birth time as well. Once it’s completed, scroll down to the page that looks like this :

This is my personal natal chart (don’t tell my secrets! 😉 ) and if you look to the right hand side, you’ll see that the sign of Virgo is in my 2nd house. Since the second house represents self worth and money (I found this info by researching what the second house means in astrology), I’ll have some luck with money and personal finances, sense of self-worth and basic values, as well as my personal possessions 😀 Yippee! I gotta tell you I’m pretty excited about that 🙂 If you don’t want to mess with all this, and would like a quick, easy answer to how this aspect is influencing you, go over to Maria’s web page and ask her a question! She also does a fabulous weekly starscope that I thoroughly enjoy reading and look forward to every week. Enjoy, lovelies!

Go ahead and pick a card from above (you can pick one, two or all three). I’ve added a bunch of stones to this picture, so I’ll list the stones that will help you this week under the card meaning you choose this week.

My hope for you this week is that you explore, uncover and research parts of yourself that you had no idea where there. If something comes up for you this week, as yourself how it’s tying in with the rest of your life–what is the Universe trying to say to you? I strongly believe that the outside world is a reflection of what’s going on inside, so if you’re encountering things that don’t make you happy, look to where you can make a change within. You’ve totally got this <3

This is your week! Make it an amazing one 🙂
