When Jupiter, the planet of grand experiences and overblown expectations, bellies up to the bar in the fiery sign of Aries, he's not ordering a mocktail. Patton would get a gin and tonic, Hemingway would go for a martini, but you two? You're in for a cosmic combo of Leo's romantic champagne and Aries's spicy Bloody Mary. Things may get effervescent, if not downright dramatic, as Jupiter squares your composite Venus in Leo.
During this transit, you might catch yourselves locked in a tango of exhilarating aspirations and lavish affection, painting the town red. You can almost hear Jupiter dare, "Go big or go home!" But keep your rose-tinted glasses at your sides - there's no need for them to be permanently affixed to your noses. Just because Olympus is in sight doesn't mean you need to scale it. While fervent declarations of forever love at 3 am could be intoxicating, try to hear the rational whispers behind Jupiter's booming voice.
Subtle? Not this transit's style. It may feel as if the Universe hired a marching band to follow you around, blaring out your romantic highs and lows. And just when you're teetering on the crest of romantic delirium, remember - balance is just a pirouette away. Venus in Leo can easily tumble into ego-centric dramas, where "all the world's a stage." So, be authentic thespians, and let love be your script, not conflict.
Don't stress about that part, Jupiter's expansive energy can make a molehill look like Mount Everest, and you two'll bet your last cent it's Everest and decide to conquer it, armed with two spoons and a lot of enthusiasm. However, once your enthusiastic Everest spoils down to the molehill it always was, you'll have the joy of a shared experience, replete with laughter and lessons learned. After all, that's what this transit is about - extravagant emotional exploration. Take it for what it is, do a conga dance with it and enjoy yourselves.
Jupiter square Venus tests your ability to laugh yourselves out of potential blunders. And if you find yourselves acting out a scene from a corny romantic movie, remember to nail the happy ending.
