In these texts, A is the person whose Sun is read and B the person whose Jupiter receives it.
Jupiter represents joy, confidence and the recognition of authority. Depending on the relationship it forms with other planets, the system describes expressions of trust or distrust.
Facilitating contact
B expands A’s sense of well-being, conveys confidence and helps A look beyond obstacles. A, in turn, makes B feel respected and honored.
Obstructing contact
When A brings up a situation they want to resolve, both may focus more on the difficulty than on the possibilities. A feels that B doesn’t recognize their achievements, and B senses that A doesn’t grant them the respect they expect.
Aspects of the Sun
The Sun represents personal radiance, the way we defend our own territory and the conditions under which we allow other people to come close. It relates to behaviors we feel are our own, even when we don’t recognize having learned them from those around us.
Sometimes a family is surprised by a reaction and wonders where that way of acting came from. That surprise invites us to look at what we need in order to let someone into our space, why we find it easy to approach certain people and why other presences feel threatening. It also lets us ask ourselves how others perceive us.
When the traits of the Sun match what was learned in inventory 1, their expression may feel more natural. If they differ from what the family or the culture expects, we may try to resemble an image we don’t feel is our own. In that search for acceptance, the “masks” we have spoken about appear.
In your love relationship that question comes back: how much room you have to show yourself as you are, and how much you feel you must play a role in order to be accepted.
The intensity of the following aspects is read together with the other factors of the synastry, which can reinforce or moderate how they show up.
