Composite Venus Square Jupiter

Composite Venus Square Jupiter (very wide orb- weak aspect)

You are likely to have a large appetite for good things and this relationship will focus on a great deal of acquisition of just that. The square is viewed generally as a difficult aspect, but it may be difficult to find any problems in the combination of Venus(desire) and Jupiter(expansion.) Well, you could eat yourselves to death. Actually if there are problems here they are just that, ones of potential overindulgence. This can apply to any area of enjoyment or intake, physical, emotional, or financial- food, sex, money, or anything that brings pleasure and adds rather than subtracts from what you have or are. Although the effect is to overdo, the cause is not greed, but inattention, which may sound strange at first, but it is the primary cause of going too far in the realm of experiences. When you want more, it is usually because you didn't fully experience what you already had. You feel you didn't have enough, but the problem is that you didn't feel enough. The remedy will be to savor your experiences more intensely, rather than rushing from one to the next. As long as you are concerned with what comes next, you do not fully experience what is happening now, and in effect you waste it. It is more difficult to shake than it might seem, because it is a matter of habit and habits are hard to break. You just have to keep pinching yourselves and reminding yourselves that you are here, so enjoy it now.
