One of the most luxury-loving phases is taking place today, the 12th of August. This is the conjunct of the goddess of love, Venus, and the king of planets, also symbolized by the Emperor in the tarot deck, Jupiter.
The two brightest planets will be very close together for the next three mornings (11-13th) and at their closest today, the 12th, separated by less than 1 degree.
Set your alarm and don’t miss the sight—as they won’t have this close of a conjunction until November of 2028.

While Venus rules emotions and the love and sex lives of all beings, Jupiter brings kingly prosperity and luxury too. After all, once your coffers grow, your bills do too.
Well, guess what? This will not be one of those one-time, nonrecurring things: Venus conjunct Jupiter every year, and the next conjunction is scheduled for June 9th, 2026.
What is the first thing that you can think of based on the given facts about luxury and love?
Yes, a big fat wedding!
This phase is ripe for weddings and marriages, both of which are big things both economically and socially.
At the same time, on the mundane side of it, this phase is also beneficial for a prosperous business relationship. This is the time to be productive and find things that can actually make you prosperous, both economically and spiritually.

This is because Jupiter stands in for both these things, while Venus rules emotions, which are always instrumental when it comes to making profitable deals.
Speaking in terms of spending, this is the time to do so. But this is a very heady thing, and the serotonin rush that comes from over-shopping is something we can say we are guilty of getting high on.
So, there is an obvious and quite ominous risk in this entire deal, too. After all, overspending is something that can ruin a month’s budget for you. And on top of that, you might want to steer clear of extravagant loans, because you don’t want those hanging over your heads.
Jupiter is also one of the ruling parties when it comes to spirituality, and you can find yourself hungering for knowledge of the abstract.
You might be the Jim Halpert for your peers, easy-going and living a day at a time, but the heady combination of Jove and Venus together can make even the likes of you wonder about the existence of God and the role of Fate in your life.

What is more, this phase of introspection and reflection might just be of some use to your inane life.
This is because, along with epiphanies, it might be that you actually manage to ascend to a higher astral plane, which can change your existence, both temporally and spiritually.
The thing you need to be careful about here is temperance. Despite the entire productivity bait that this astrological phase brings with it, you can never be too careful with your finances. Especially when the stars above are conspiring to make your pockets shallower!
So, enjoy the emotional clarity, the intimacy Venus brings and the spiritual excesses of thought. But make sure that at the end of the day you are on the middle path, both in terms of time and money.
Let good reason prevail and peace and love descend on you.
