Astrology: Do You Attract Benefactors?

1. To determine whether someone is fortunate, first check whether their natal chart has a Sun-Jupiter aspect. The Sun gives us light, and its placement describes our outer circumstances, while Jupiter is the great benefic, enhancing and expanding our strengths. Jupiter’s innate generosity and luck also draw attention and bring opportunities. A Sun-Jupiter conjunction is the most powerful; if Jupiter is in its domicile or exaltation (note: Jupiter is domiciled in Sagittarius and exalted in Cancer), the person will rarely lack support, and opportunities will consistently come their way. For example, Guo Jingjing has a Sun-Jupiter conjunction in Libra; her natural luck, combined with hard work, helped her become the "Queen of Diving."

2. Harmonious aspects to Jupiter—trines and sextiles—also bring good opportunities. Even squares and oppositions aren’t necessarily as negative as some astrology books suggest. In fact, any contact with Jupiter can correlate with good fortune; squares and oppositions just tend to involve more challenges and fluctuating results, so the path is less smooth than with harmonious aspects. For instance, Du Li has a Sun-Jupiter trine, which seems to give her a lucky edge—she has often edged out opponents by as little as 0.1 points in shooting competitions.

3. Beyond the Sun-Jupiter aspect, Jupiter’s house placement is also important. When Jupiter is in an angular house or in the 5th or 9th, it often indicates help from benefactors. Jupiter in the 1st house stands out most: people with this placement are naturally likable and make a strong first impression, which attracts support and lucky breaks. Even more enviably, they often seem to receive "help from above."

4. A Moon in Sagittarius can also indicate support from benefactors. This placement is associated with an optimistic, cheerful temperament, generosity, and a willingness to help others—qualities that naturally attract assistance from helpful people.

Even if you don’t have the configurations above, it doesn’t mean you lack support from benefactors; as long as you treat others with kindness, help will naturally come your way.
