Jupiter, the planet known as the Great Benefic, and the planet which symbolizes growth, the law, beliefs, ethics, expansion, opportunity, wealth, faith, higher education, travel - long distance, religion, philosophy, joy, goodwill and often excess and extravagance, began its retrograde journey for 2016 on Thursday, January 7th, at 11:40 PM EST ... transiting planetary retrogrades are often referred to as global wake-up calls ... usually right before a Jupiter retrograde it will be discovered or become apparent that society, organizations and individuals will have "gone too far" in their desires to expand and grow ... often the actions will have exceeded positive limits which necessitates a time for stepping back ...
Jupiter
retrograde is a period for everyone to grow internally and prepare themselves
for new opportunities that arise when Jupiter stations back into direct motion
... it is very important during this period to look within and develop a better
understanding and awareness which hopefully will enable each one of us to figure
out if what is being offered to us is what we really want and/or need ...
People
born with Jupiter retrograde in their natal chart usually find that society's
religions, beliefs, philosophies, and cultural values are not compatible with
their own values ... they have to step back from the "norms" and rethink these
things on their own in order to develop their own individual "operating systems"
... needless to say, during a transiting Jupiter retrograde, we may all
experience this and those born with Jupiter retrograde may experience an
enhanced desire to pursue their natal energy in regard to this area of our lives
... as Jupiter goes retrograde roughly every 9 months for a period of about 4
months, there are obviously a lot of people, like yours truly, born with Jupiter
retrograde in their natal chart !!!
Jupiter
stationed retrograde Thursday at 23 degrees 14 minutes Virgo... it will
retrograde back to 13 degrees 15 minutes Virgo during this period ... if you've
had a natal chart done and know in which house or houses these degrees lie, you
will probably get a good idea where in your life you may have to reconsider
"growth" in those areas and whether or not you have gone too far too fast - and
this would include physical growth as well !!! ...
Keep in mind that Jupiter in Virgo is
all about the following: making the most out of every opportunity presented and seeing that it is wasted; being organized, practical making great efforts to produce concrete results; setting very high standards; giving great importance to cleanliness and order; giving highly detailed consideration to what it is pursuing; learning to delegate responsibilities to avoid being overworked; believing in hard work; increasing interests in in service and charitable pursuits associated with the physical and mental health in hospitals and educational institutions; being involved with any area of work that benefits from the ability to take account of details, details, details; and learning how to promote further personal and spiritual growth through careful analysis ...
Sagittarius
born individuals, as Jupiter is the ruling planet of your Sun sign, this is your
yearly period of review and reflection ... it is time to step back and reflect
on what has been going on in your life since Jupiter last stationed direct on April 8th, 2015 ... where have you possibly over-expanded, and what
opportunities for growth and expansion have come your way that you either took
advantage of or might well have overlooked or even ignored ???
Jupiter
remains retrograde until May 9th entirely in the sign of Virgo ... this is the only retrograde period Jupiter will have in Virgo before it enters the sign of Libra on September 9th ... we all
should still keep our eyes and ears open for opportunities for growth and
expansion that might come our way - yes, even in a Jupiter retrograde ... just
wait to take advantage of them when Jupiter resumes its forward motion ... be
careful otherwise you might find that you have overlooked what could ultimately
be what benevolent Jupiter so joyously can bring to you - a once in a lifetime
chance !!!
