This is for anyone who has any strong Sagittarius/Sagittarius stelliums/Jupiter or 9th house influences.

Was there a situation where you knew you were saved by grace? 

There was a time when I was 16 and beggining to drive. I was careless and to be honest,  stupid at that age, like many teenagers and I almost hit a guy. He was in his 50's and man, did he look mad! He cursed and yelled at me, but then he walked away safely without any injury.

If the guy had walked two more steps he would have been pulverized by my car. 

I knew at that time that him and I were saved. I was going through enough at the time also because I was going through an intense transit. 

If there was one thing that that situation taught me it was to be more careful when I am driving. And also to listen to loud music while I am driving!

Any of you have any "luck" stories you have to tell?

Oh, Toni, I have had my ass saved more times than I can count and in fact was thinking of one of the occasions today. I meant to come home and see if I could find the old writing. Will look now, thanks for the prompt!

well, I found it but it's too long. 

What happened is I got hit by a car when I was 8 months pregnant. Thing is, the result was that I was pinned (at my Capricorn knees) between two cars, front bumper of one on the back of my knees, back bumper of the other on the front of my knees. I was completely pinned, could not move but NO DAMAGE outside of the filty bumpers got my legs grimy.

You know that dried grime that gets on cars after a big snow?  That stuff got on my legs.  Here is the call to Annalisa.. I wrote this in 2002 for my daughter (because I was pregnant with her).

Brinnnnnnnnnng! Brinnnnnnnnng!

"It's me. I got hit by a car."

"What? What happened? How's the baby?"

"Baby's okay. I'm okay, I've just got dirty legs."

"What?" She yelled to her husband. "XXXXX! Elsa got hit by a car!"

"Are you at the hospital?" she asked

"No. Nothing is wrong with me. My legs are dirty though."

"What are you talking about? XXXXX, I think she's in shock," she said to her husband.  "She says the baby is okay. A fucking car hit my pregnant sister... so you're not at a hospital? Are you going?"

"For what?"

"Because you're pregnant and got hit by a car. What's the matter with you?"

"I can't go to the hospital. There's nothing wrong. My legs are dirty. I got pinned."

"Pinned?"

"Between two cars."

"XXXXX! She got pinned between two cars. She says her legs are dirty. She's not at a hospital."

"Listen to me" I said.  "I'm okay. I've just got dirty legs. The cars were dirty and when they touched my legs. Filthy dirt got on them. Okay?. I feel better now. I just got freaked out."

"Well what are you going to do? Sue the motherfuckers? "

"For what? For dirty legs? Hey judge!  My legs got dirty. Do something!  Come on man. You can't sue someone for dirty legs."

"Well anyone who hits a pregnant woman with their car needs their ass sued, that's all. If you aren't hurt, okay. Are you sure you shouldn't have the baby checked?"

"Check for what? I'm sure nothing happened."

"I know, I know. Your legs are dirty."
"Right. And now I'm hungry. I want some pasta. I don't want to cook it though."

"You want home. You ought to go have some."

"I'm going to. I have to wash my legs though."

"The dirt is still on them?"

"Well, yeah. It's sticky. It's gross. I'm going to have to scrub it off.  I just didn't know what to do."

"So basically you just called to tell me that you just got hit by a car, and now you're going to lunch?" To her husband "Do you believe this chick?"

"Right. I'm hungry. I'm goin'. Bye."

"Well make them cook it for you. Go out, okay? Bye."

And there was another time I had a swear-to-God bonafide miracle healing WITH witnesses.

One time when I was 9 years old I stayed overnight with my childhood Scorpio friend who almost got me killed multiple times.

This time we were outside in the dark in the little town we grew up in. She wanted to light a candle to see by, I was holding my hands to shield the match from a breeze when a bullet went between our foreheads!

If I remember correctly, I felt the wind from the bullet on my forehead before I heard the gunshot. I could be wrong it's been 34 years, either way we ran like hell! I'm super lucky.

As far as I recall the only time I was in a life or death situation was when I fell in the pool when I was a child. I wasn't worried at all ... I remember seeing the surface of the water from below as I fell. I didn't even know what was going on until my dad jumped in and pulled me out. I was never scared (Pisces moon?).

Dang Elsa, that definitely was God or the universe's doing. The universe definitely wanted that baby born!

Jupiter(5th Libra) Quintile Mars conj. DC (Sag)

Have had many instances of being subjected to abuse perpetrated by men... family members, significant others and strangers. Each instance though, was 'intervened' on before it finished me off. Obviously, here I am today. :)

The true blessing in this though, is I feel this aspect has brought protection to my daughters...shall have to have a closer look, maybe there is something else involved or another aspect entirely, hadn't thought of it until I read your post.

About 11 years ago I went to El Salvador to attend a conference on post-war reconstruction. I was with a group of people staying at a guesthouse in the capitol of San Salvador. While I was taking a shower, masked gunmen entered the guesthouse, went from room to room and held up everyone at gunpoint. They didn't come into my room. They didn't knock, they didn't enter.

I have an extremely close conjunction of the moon and jupiter in aries - less than 1 degree apart.

I nearly rear-ended a car at full speed in a little Ford Escort when I was driving back cross-state from visiting my very ill grandfather. I was simply gawking at a very stupid thing -- a pretty little amusement park on the side of the road. I swerved very quickly -- video game hand/eye coordination came in handy BIG TIME -- and hit the brakes hard before sliding into an empty intersection. Talk about nearly having an embolism. I pulled over behind an empty warehouse to soothe my nerves, lick my wounds and try to lower my blood pressure. 

I was nearly killed by a mail truck that was making a right turn without stopping just as I stepped to cross the intersection at a 4 way stop. I could hear him screaming as he saw me. Three more feet and I would have been roadkill. 

I had lost my dream job in Moscow and was languishing in rural Kentucky, when the dean of the local business school offered me a graduate assistantship to attend their MBA program, out of nowhere.

There are other things, I'm sure...

I have an exact Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in Libra in the 1st, trine Venus in the 9th and sextile Mars in Sagittarius in the 3rd.

I am not lucky in all areas in life, but I am *well* aware that I am lucky more than I ought to be in many others and am very, very grateful for whomever bestowed those gifts to me. I try hard not to take it for granted, and I try to share my largesse.

(though Jupiter in the 1st can give you a kind of largesse that is not entirely welcome.  ) 

I went to a trip to Spain a few years ago. I was at an airport and I went to the restroom. When I left, I almost forgot my passport. A man came and got it for me. If it was someone bad, they might have stolen it. I could have walked too many yards away for the man to notice my face matched the passport or if I wasn't lucky, the man might've not found me at all!

Jupiter in the 12th house.

I was young and immature and didn't care for my boss. I bad mouthed him, he didn't like my work ethic.

When layoffs happened, my job was one of those in jeopardy. 

To my utter shock, this boss gave me  a good recommendation! and i successfully transferred to another job in the company.

wow, I am so enjoying reading the miracles here..that was a funny story Elsa!!! sorry about the tough stuff mentioned here though.

Deglet, your tale was awesome and your conjunction, I have too..( I have Jupiter 15aries and Moon 17aries both trine Mc 16Sag and trine PLuto 19Le0)

At the end of May 1992, the day Uranus squared my Moon, repeating the natal square, triggering a cardinal T square I was driving the 35miles home after doing my Sunday afternoon radio show, on the busy main artery road that links Glasgow to the West of Scotland, when a beat up old van trundled across the dual carriageway and joined on the outside lane, where I was, having just overtaken a slower car. I realised I as going to hit him bad, and flicked the wheel round to avoid full on impact, caught him instead on the rear right ( we drive on the left here) ..the force spun my car as his slewed away to the left, so my tiny car rolled,then spun, upside down, sunroof popped out, leaving sparks flying at my face as I realised I was either going to have a serious head injury or die, and as you are at these times, was still and calm and accepting of what had to be.

The car was spinning on it's roof, crushing in, then suddenly it stopped, and unknown to me, an auto rescue van driver had seen it all as he came up the opposite direction, other side of the dual carriageway ..spun his own van around and blocked the oncoming traffic while punching in the emergency services number.. three fire engines, six police cars, a paramedic car and an ambulance were there fast.

But the guy who had caused this had rushed to my car, yanked the door open and was trying to pull me out of the car in case it went up in flames. His face was grey, while I was absolutely fine and asked him to calm down and let me get my seat belt off first. Oh and I picked up my handbag and mobile, then eased out of the upside down position, which isn't comfortable on your ribs.

Before the emergency teams came to cut the body out of the crushed car ( that's what they said they expected when they saw the car) I'd walked up the road a little to join a small crowd of onlookers from the stopped traffic. 

The guy from the first car was and Accident and Emergency(ER) doctor from the local hospital. How fortunate was I ?

They wanted me to go in the ambulance to get checked out at the hospital, but I refused, saying if I sat in that place, I'd really freak out..no thanks!! I asked the Auto Rescue guy ( we are members for life of that service now!) if he would mind dropping me home as I didn't want the family to get worried seeing a Police car rolling up. Called my daughter and told her I'd had a bump in the car and would she pop the kettle on for a nice cuppa. She did, and I was fine..but the next day I had some shaky moments, and the next I got back in a car and drove. Slightly nervously for a time I admit!

So yes, when the rest of your chart's full of shitty stuff..actually, Jupiter CAN come along and rescue you. Toni, glad that guy was ok and thanks for introducing this thread!

I was sitting around with three friends when we decided it would be a lark to drive to Oklahoma and blow some money at the casino.  I was ahead 30 bucks when everyone gathered around me and said they had lost their money. So I cashed out, but on the way to the door we saw a hamburger slot machine.  My best friend and I had a long time running joke about cartoon hamburgers so, I fed my 30 dollars to the machine and of course lost it. 

On the drive back, We were going about 75 mph, when there was a huge shadowy blob in the road ahead of us.  It was some kind of dead animal, possibly a cow.  The capricorn driver swerved sharp to the right avoiding the beast, then back to the left.  The car started to fish tail and he lost control. I was in the front passenger seat and started screaming bloody murder.  The car spun three times and hit the guard rail, bounced, spun again and we ended up on the shoulder just as three cars whized past us.

The pisces who was sleeping in the back seat woke up and said, "Hey, whats going on?" My heart was pounding out of my chest as I screamed the story at her. "We almost died!!!!!" Her response: "I'm glad we didn't stop at the porn store and buy a bunch of porn, we definitly would've died then, with a bunch of porn in the car." The gemini next to her started laughing "They would've found our bodies all covered in porn!" We just sat on the side of the road and laughed for a while.

notatirem, THAT is what I called LUCK. Or should I say destiny?

None of you and your friends' times (time to die) were up, so the universe saved you guys.

1. I've been smoked by cars a few times on my bicycle (4X actually). the worst time was when the helmet smashed to pieces on my head. i'm not dead, so i consider that counts as being saved

2. I almost drowned 3X when I was a kid

3. I used to run away all the time when I was little (like, under 6 years old)--just take off at the fair, or whatever 

4. Last year my Dad was driving me to the ferry and got squeezed off the road by a tour bus. Problem was, we were on a bridge. Dad pulled a Steven Segal move and drove up on the sidewalk, grazing the handrail.

"Dad, why didn't you just honk?"

"Oh I never thought of that!" LIBRA! too polite! 

5. I've left my passport in random public places, my camera in club bathrooms (not as seedy or gross as it sounds), my wallet on tables in restaurants, my bike unlocked by accident...one of these days I guess I'll be sorry

6. Not having a dime to my name and a few days before I flew back to Canada, I found a 50 pound note in London, once

7. When I was poor and couldn't afford the bus, I'd ask the Universe to helpme find $ or a bus transfer

Jupiter Ruled chart--natal Jupiter opposed Neptune in 12th. I am a cursed person with very good luck, LOL 

Kasmiri, you sound like a VERY lucky person.

LOL notatirem 

I've been asked to be a couple people's "porn remover" if they die - go over to their house and remove their porn/toy/sex tape whatever stash.

LOL Jilly Ms Porn stripper!!  Wow Kash you have Jupiter looking over you too, and great story notatirem, that had me on the edge of my seat there..then laughing ..sounds like a scene from a movie!

My mom miscarried my twin sister ... at five months pregnant.

I have some health issues, but I'm here and dancing proud.

(oh man, the million dollar legs - I should tell that story too!)

I'm thankful you're all lucky and still here.  

Thanks for this thread.  For some reason, I've been drawn to all of the posts about Jupiter this weekend.

I have Mars in Sag/9H, conjunct Moon/Neptune in Scorpio, sextile Jupiter/Uranus in Libra in the 7th.  Soooo many times I've been lucky/blessed.

When I was a kid, our bus hit a long, slick patch and went off the side of a bridge.  We hit the one tree in the middle of the river, which stopped the fall.  Had a tricky climb out of the back of the bus.  (And the whole time, the driver screamed, "We're going to die!"  For some reason, that still makes me laugh.)  My parents freaked when they saw it.  No injuries for anyone.

On a different note, for the longest time, I prayed for my dad's safety while he was flying... it was the strongest urge.  Then he had a plane crash.  He was in his small plane and ran out of gas on takeoff.  He pancaked, but missed a grove of trees and a house under construction.  Broke his back, but he's still alive.  He's an atheist, but he thanked God after that day.

Michele, I'm sorry, but that bus driver is funny!

And your dad's story is amazing. One of those stories that make you believe in a higher power.

Toni, I agree. 

And wow, Deglet.  That story is incredible.  Is there anything about ancestors with a Moon conjunct Jupiter?  I’m wondering if this is a special protection. 

Elsa, I would love to hear your story about your healing.  Is this connected to your Mars in the 9H? 

This thread got me thinking, and I started writing these things out again.  Geeeezzzz:

• At sixteen, my family and some friends went swimming in the river.  They got out to eat, but I stayed back.  Someone decided to open the dam at that point, and the current was rushing so fast, I couldn’t swim or get out.  I was under several times and had completely lost control.  I somehow hit a huge pipe on the edge, which stopped me cold.  
• When I was a senior, a girlfriend and I were driving back home after seeing a movie.  Just before we crossed under an overpass, we nicked something big with the front end of the car.  Someone had dropped a huge piece of concrete off the overpass but just barely missed us.  (That was a trend in our area at the time.  One woman was killed when it went through the windshield.)

• When I was driving in the left lane on a busy six-lane highway in the rain, I lost control of the car, spun out, and somehow landed on the right shoulder.  I had this vision of a hand keeping the other cars away.  It still blows my mind that I wasn’t touched… there were so many cars around me.

• Was in a plane that lost an engine.  Had to make an emergency landing with the whole strip lined with fire trucks.  We were okay until the flight attendant broke down on the intercom, then everyone lost it!  What’s with that?  (Not such a big deal, I just thought the flight attendant was funny.)

• Won $1000 from a news program when I couldn’t pay the rent.

• My first win was a sack of horse feed. lol… We needed it, too, because my parents rescued horses at the time.

• Win enough at gambling to pay for my trips… my friends talk about it all the time.

I’m not sure how I’m winning money, actually, because I have a poorly aspected Venus (conjunct Saturn, etc.).   

Geez, and that’s not everything that’s happened… Nothing to do with all this but be grateful.
