The placement of Jupiter in Cancer indicates that you have an inclination toward a mode of expansive energy, which is emotional and often cautious and self-limiting. One implication of this quality is that your expansive endeavors are likely to be undertaken within arenas in which you feel emotionally safe. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Jupiter in Cancer are a result of your need to expand through nurturing and being nurtured and only in directions where you do not feel threatened.

With Jupiter in Cancer, you tend to understand the world and humanity’s place in it from an emotional perspective. You are inclined to seek the roots of things before you feel comfortable with going further. Having Jupiter in Cancer, you are also likely to understand your world in terms of the heritage that you have experienced and which has conditioned you. If your understanding goes to a deeper level, life is often seen by you as a cyclic process.

The placement of Jupiter and Cancer is often problematic, but may be fruitful within the confined limits of safety and comfort. This is symbolized by the natural quincunx between Cancer and Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius. Cancer is the Cardinal Water sign. The tendency to withdraw for protection, which is associated with Cancer, symbolically defines limits within which the functions associated with Jupiter may operate. With Jupiter in Cancer, tension arises when the Jupiterian urge to expand reaches these limits and you are inhibited from crossing this self-imposed boundary. Within this purview, however, the watery softness associated with the Moon, Cancer’s ruler, blends well with Jupiter’s mellow and beneficent aura.

Insécurités

As an individual with Jupiter in Cancer, in your insecurity, you feel that you must reach outward to assert and validate your ego, but you are afraid to make yourself emotionally vulnerable. Often, you may feel called upon by life to give, particularly emotionally, to the point of your exhaustion. You often lack the self-esteem and self-confidence to say, “no”, so you overextend yourself and set yourself up for an excess/burn out/shut down syndrome. Alternatively, with Jupiter in Cancer, you may learn to guard yourself against those emotional demands that others make of you and that would take you past your limits of vulnerability. You may also feel that you are always bumping up against limits. This may cause you to feel frustrated, but you are too timid to break through these limits.

Jupiter in the 2nd House:

For those who place a high value on material possessions, Jupiter in the 2nd House is often interpreted as a fortunate placement. Jupiter in the 2nd House may indicate that you enjoy an abundance of possessions and resources and this contributes to your sense of physical security. You may perceive your physical and material needs as extensive. Given this, you may focus on accumulating wealth and possessions and, therefore, possess material comfort in abundance. Or, you may assume, optimistically, that your material needs will be met and this positive attitude naturally leads you to accumulate material abundance. It may also be the case that you are, in-deed, blessed with an abundance of resources that, upon being properly used and managed, result in material comfort.

Having Jupiter in the 2nd House, there is, of course, the karmic possibility that you will not enjoy material abundance in your life. In this case, you may have several possible reactions. You can become extremely dissatisfied and frustrated, yearning constantly for more than you have and bending your energies to accumulate the wealth of the material world. With Jupiter in the 2nd House, a more positive alternative is that you become content with what you have.  Even if you are not wealthy by society’s standards, you feel that you have all that you need, that you are materially secure and comfortable and could want nothing more. You are happy in your material circumstance.

As an individual with Jupiter in the 2nd House, this quality of enjoying your resources and possessions, particularly at the material level, may be exhibited by you no matter how much wealth and possessions you actually have. Thus, you may focus on sensuality and enjoying the “good life.” Your interpretation of the “good life” will depend on your circumstances and values.

There is a third option suggested by Jupiter in the 2nd House. This is for you to transform your focus from material to other, less tangible, values. You may find, by refocusing your values, that you are wealthy in ways other than materially.

Priorité à la croissance et à l'expansion

With Jupiter in the 2nd House, you tend to focus your desire to expand your world on enlarging your wealth and possessions. You will likely place your energy into the growth and expansion of the material sphere of life. This is what society generally conditions people to do. However, you may see your opportunities for growth almost exclusively in the physical/material dimension, even more so than most.

However, having Jupiter in the 2nd House, you may feel a need for growth to occur in and through your values. If this is true, your focus is likely to swing away from, or at least not be directly occupied with, the material. Either you see your security and comfort being achieved through the practice of wholesome values or you begin to examine your values in order to achieve personal growth and development through the exploration and expansion of your value system.

L'accent mis sur le bien-être

As an individual with Jupiter in the 2nd House, your social conditioning is likely to promote finding your well-being through material security and comfort. To the extent that you feel wealthy or materially comfortable, you feel an abundance of well-being. If you face poverty or material hardship, your sense of well-being is likely to be threatened or difficult to maintain. Society ingrains this attitude and value set so effectively, that it may be difficult to see this as a Jupiter in the 2nd House trait, unless it is by a matter of degree.

With Jupiter in the 2nd House, if you can separate yourself from society’s conditioning, may find a sense of well-being through adherence to certain values that you hold to be good and true.  If you adopt this approach, well-being itself may become a possession, a resource that you “own.” This may be the case particularly if you externalize your sense of optimism and good-will so that you see the basic goodness of the world in which you live all around you.
