ASPECTS OF JUPITER & NEPTUNE
THE HARMONIOUS ASPECTS
One of the commonest and most marked results of this influence is hospitality, and this is but
one aspect of the quick sympathy which it is usually ready to bestow upon all who are in need.
Sometimes this is directed towards the animal world, sometimes towards the slum-dweller and
outcast. The lower the position and the worse the circumstances of the applicant the more willing it
is to succour.
There is considerable emotional content, and, besides philanthropy, this is often discharged
in the form of art, especially music. The sensitivity is very great.
The Jovian part of the combination also inclines to metaphysical speculation or psychic
investigations, and thus we get many spiritists, students of New Thought, Christian Scientists and
followers of other sects of this description.
Like Mars-Neptune, it inclines to make the native seek the grandiose and the seeming-
impossible, but its action is milder, gentler and more subtle. It is idealistic and may easily tend to drift
away from the actual world, or to deny or ignore its importance. It is other-worldly, and its sense of
values is at variance with that of the ordinary man or woman. It is often unable to develop properly
in mundane conditions, and may seek the shelter of some form of retirement.
Whereas Jupiter-Uranus seeks power, this influence is much more concerned with service,even of a lowly kind; in less practical maps there may be a proneness to a life of fantasy. It does not
notice barriers, either between the classes, sexes or nationalities, or between spiritual and mundane
things; the whole range of the senses and the emotions is indefinitely enlarged.
It is good for receiving help from others without having directly merited it. Thus the native
may himself minister to others in connection with a charitable organisation, and may be successful in
obtaining funds for that purpose. Or he may find that he is himself the recipient of kindness from
friends or strangers without having rendered them any particular services; he is often benefited by a
helping hand. Sometimes there is relief and happiness through religious retreat, and it is always aninfluence through which spiritual help and strength may come to the native abundantly.
However, here, as in all cases, much attention must be paid to the general strength of the
two planets, especially by sign. Cases occur in which, Jupiter being out of dignity, even the
technically good aspects carry with them some troublesome limitation, such as nervous debility, bad
eyesight, family misfortunes due to fraud or imprudence, or scandal. In the maps of women it may

incline to faithlessness, indifference or some form of Neptunianism. Among examples of
technically good aspects between these bodies I find: A woman whose husband was passionately
fond of the sea and was frequently in danger on the sea; another whose fianc belonged to a family
with an insane taint; another whose husband died directly after marriage; one who contracted
disease owing to the husbands loose living; one whose husband was lame; and another whosehusbands chief fault was incurable unpunctuality!
Perhaps the effects of this configuration can best be described asanti-Saturnian- it tends to
deprive the native of the virtues associated with the greater malefic, making them slack, kindly, apt to
lend and borrow without regard to strict merits, Bohemian, free-and-easy and changeful. But in the
case of women it is clear that these characteristics are often exhibited through the husband, the
native herself sometimes being very strict and conscientious, according to the tenor of the
Ascendant.

Nativities,306 (Nymphomania utterly degraded moral nature).
