I was at a Kurt Vonnegut talk in New York a few years ago. Talking about writing, life, and everything. He explained why people have such a need for drama in their life. He said, “People have been hearing fantastic stories since time began. The problem is, they think life is supposed to be like the stories. Let's look at a few examples.” He drew an empty grid on the board, like this: Time moves from left to right. He said, “Let's look at a very common story arc.

Jupiter’s traditional name was Jove, hence your jovial attitude. You’re extremely confident in whatever you do. Being one of the luckiest signs, fortune seems to favor you, whether you plan things or not. That’s also the reason you don’t mind taking the odd risk or two.

You feel as if you can’t possibly lose. You’re also very enthusiastic, and this is contagious — people can’t help but feel the same way in your presence. Because people like you so much, they want to help you achieve your goals. People around you will sometimes feel that you’re overly ambitious, and that your aims are pie in the sky. One of your primary lessons in life will be related to this. You have a great sense of timing, and know just when to make your move. Personal growth and understanding is a key aspect of your personality. Lots of people don’t get where you’re coming from.
