Conjunction Mars – Jupiter
Het Monster: Very energetic. Enthusiasm: they fight for everything that seems important to them. Self-confident, not discouraged by refusals; this struggle, however, may border on fanaticism (see other aspects). Military career or connections with military circles. For women, often marriage to military personnel. Possible inappropriate chauvinistic patriotism, love of luxury, lavish banquets.
Catherine Oben: Conjunction Mars – Jupiter. Conjunction: an aspect of brightly expressed conqueror energy, insistently and actively expanding. The person has infinite faith in their abilities, knows how and loves to demonstrate courage. Their boldness is rewarded, as they naturally choose paths where their talent can be most fully revealed. Often, they possess an unquestionable gift for commanding people.
A. Podvodny: Conjunction Mars – Jupiter.
Conjunction with Mars: True weight is invisible. Real strength is imperceptible. Conjunction with Mars gives the planet strength, which at a low level is destructive. The planet’s principle appears inflated by energy, but, unable to channel it constructively, most often manifests as aggression and destruction. For example, an unprocessed conjunction of Mars with the Moon produces aggression toward one’s own body, and with Saturn—extraordinary obstacles during attempts at introspection and concentration; for instance, a window suddenly shatters from a football flying into the room. Processing here proceeds less along the line of suppressing excess energy in the areas ruled by the planet (although initially this skill is necessary), and more through refining the energy of the conjunction, raising its vibrational quality. For example, with Mars conjunct the Moon, it is better not to develop muscular strength, but to learn psychic energy management, etc.; and with Mars conjunct Saturn, it is better to direct effort not toward fighting temptations and distractions, but toward increasing depth of focus and concentration power. At a high level, Mars gives the planet exactly the energy it needs in each specific case, qualitatively enhancing its creative potential. But for this, one must realize the fallacy of the attractive principle “strong means good,” and eliminate the forceful subordination of the planet to Mars typical of low and middle levels—especially when, with Mars conjunct Venus, a person for a long time perceives and values beauty only when combined with visible strength.
Conjunction with Jupiter: Standing on the shoulders of giants, make sure they don’t crouch from it. At a low level, conjunction with Jupiter gives the planet an acute sense of self-importance. The person sincerely believes that all their expressions in the corresponding areas are extraordinarily important and significant, that they possess immense potential, and that everyone, understanding this, should help them and serve selflessly. Indeed, this aspect potentially brings great expansion of the planet’s principle and sometimes undeserved happiness (especially with a strong Jupiter), such as powerful patronage. The danger lies in the tendency to perceive these opportunities as inherent, as if it could not be otherwise, and to use them purely egoistically for joyful consumption. Processing involves recognizing personal responsibility for any Jupiterian gifts and opportunities as collective values, and ensuring their most effective and creative distribution. Conjunction with Jupiter signifies an intense invitation from the egregore, and the person (karmically) must not only receive the gifts, but also enter the egregore and perform necessary work within it, or else transfer the channel to the appropriate person. For example, Jupiter conjunct Mars means the person will receive abundant energy from diverse sources, but also face a strong temptation to expend it chaotically, thoughtlessly, and inefficiently—although for a long time they may subconsciously believe that any of their active deeds are flawless and bring pure grace. At a high level of processing, such a person opens high energetic and spiritual channels for others (in general, conjunction with Jupiter is the aspect of the preacher).
