Here is the enlarged chart: for the time of ingress of Jupiter at zero degrees Taurus on June 4 2011
and here's a small snapshot for quick reference:
and here's a small snapshot for quick reference:
this is set for London UK with an 8Libra17 ascendant and Saturn up close at 10Libra30 and Uranus also in the frame at 4Aries03. Jupiter is the main player, with a good flow to Pluto, both being in earth (practical, material signs), but Jupiter's first main connection is to watery, vague, confusing, yet compassionate and humanitarian Neptune at its peak in Pisces. Jupiter also semisquares the Gemini Sun.
Firstly Jupiter in Taurus would mean matters of wealth, material abundance, are on the agenda. The house positions only count for the local area of relevance and so will differ for other places.
With Saturn in Libra, prominent here for London the austerity issues are in contrast to the capacity for material indulgence. Restructuring of the institutions of wealth and government is an ongoing theme with Saturn and Pluto squaring off and with Uranus increasingly in the mix in the 2012 time frame, unexpected, unprecedented initiatives are on the agenda
The New Zealand related chart of Jupiter's ingress for Wellington, (affecting NZ overall) has interesting similarities, being almost an exact flip
Snapshot view
What holds true for both (and all locations) is with Neptune so linked to Jupiter the interpretation has to begin with the potential for some to fall prey to the delusion of wealth or material abundance (risky ventures, gambling, dream investments, false confidence); others will find the urge to be philanthropic or humanitarian with their excess wealth. Neptune/Pisces as an element is water and Taurus is of course earth, so expect big floods and heavy rainfall to continue extending the prior theme of Jupiter and Uranus in Pisces.
With Mars and Venus in Taurus in the Taurean 2nd house, the NZ chart shows a big emphasis on money, possessions, food and other earthly pleasures, but there is a conflict between the Me urges and the Us responsibilities. Saturn in Libra on the relationship horizon and influencing work and health matters shows the strain on partnerships both private and professional. Some people will be riding on a high and spending up large, others will be having to sort out their joint accounts because Saturn sits midway between Uranus and the Ascendant emphasising the tension between the urge to stick together through thick and thin versus the survival of the fittest.
Material/financial/property matters affecting domestic, household and internal NZ matters along with issues related to motherhood, women and families get a big profile in NZ in the year ahead, with the Cancer Moon in tension with the ascendant. This tight position shows a big impact with national (NZ) implications, that is likely to involve loss of homes. (The Moon-Uranus midpoint at 25 Taurus is exactly aspected by Saturn) The UK chart, like others globally, set for the ingress, obviously has the same aspect.

Moon-Neptune and Jupiter-Mars all meet at the same point in Taurus. this will encourage some to invest a lot in their dream home. Better not to be a seaside home or one by flooding water, though.
Adding to the need for caution, Saturn sits right on the Moon-Pluto midpoint which is an indicator of significant difficulties facing families and places of residence.
Primarily a lot of turmoil around people's material/financial/property status is likely to unfold over the coming year. The ongoing economic restructuring is far from over and the effects of natural disasters on people's assets have already been forewarned. Both issues combined indicate a renewed value system is in process, a rebalancing due to excesses of the past decades.
Much of the interpretation themes noted above apply globally. This is just a brief analysis of standout factors.

Meanwhile economist Gareth Morgan writes on the state of the NZ economy with particular reference to the plague of borrowing, in particular naming China as the source of those funds.
