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 sometimes excessiveness, completed its retrograde journey for 2022 on Wednesday, November 23rd, at 6:02 PM EST ... this 118 day Jupiter retrograde period occurred from 8 degrees 43 minutes Aries back to 28 degrees 47 minutes Pisces ... 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 was a period for everyone to grow internally and prepare themselves for new opportunities that arise when Jupiter stationed back into direct motion ... it is very important during this period to have looked within and developed a better understanding and awareness which hopefully enabled each one of us to have figured out if what was being offered to us was what we really wanted and/or needed !!!
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 had begun its initial transit through the sign of Aries back on May 10th of this year, but returned to the sign of Pisces for some last minute business on October 27th/ 28th where it will remain until December 20th not to return until April 2033, after stationing back into direct motion and will re-enter the sign of Aries for its complete transit !!!
Sagittarian born individuals, as Jupiter is the ruling planet of your Sun sign, this was your yearly period of review and reflection ... it was time to step back and reflect on what has been going on in your life when Jupiter began its retrograde journey for 2022 back on July 28th ... were you able to understand where you had possibly over-expanded as well as over-extended yourselves, and also realized what opportunities for growth and expansion might have come your way that you either took advantage of or might have overlooked - in fact couldn't the same be said for all of us ???
Jupiter now moves forward to complete its transit through the sign of Pisces which began back on May 13th, 2021 ... below is a reminder of what this energy was all about :
Compassion, empathy, the mystical, the beautiful, the artistic, what one dreams, and the ideal are highly when Jupiter transits through the sign of Pisces ... ethics and morals can illuminate healing, assistance or inspiration ... one may idealize art, grace, nature or even mysticism ...there is self-improvement and growth made through this energy by the generosity of ones spirit and living out ones ideals ... one must be careful to avoid the trap of escapism or attitudes and beliefs that are not really clear or perhaps overly romanticized ... tuning into the Universe is done through sympathy towards the underdog or anyone who may be suffering in any manner ... through compassion and sensitivity being expanded, ones sense of faith is usually stimulated ... there is a natural mystical leaning and an understanding the ultimate importance of personal devotion to an ideal and a faith in the belief in a Higher Power !!!
Born under or influenced by this energy, one is often kind, friendly and unassuming ... we are naturally drawn towards others and may spend time trying to help them out ... popularity can be a result of this energy since it yields a sympathetic nature and a quiet assurance in ones manner ... one is not necessarily ambitious in a worldy sense and may require frequent periods of seclusion ... Jupiter's strength in Pisces lies in its emotional depth ... there is imagination and creativity abounding here with great success in endeavors involving the arts ... one may also become profoundly involved in exploring spirituality both on a personal and global level ... any involvement in the healing arts usually produces great success ... humanitarian efforts are especially highlighted ... work involving travel over water can often bring many opportunities in life ... Jupiter is considered dignified in Pisces as it was the original ruling planet until Neptune was discovered in 1846 !!!
The ultimate lesson of Jupiter in Pisces is growth through acceptance ... here we have the metaphysician ... joy found here rests on the unwaivering belief in the beauty and goodness of the Universe ... personal retreat is usually required here to recharge ones spiritual batteries ... this energy likes the beauty of simple things, the feeling of really good feelings, mystical adventures and meditations, friends who are sensitive and understanding, and most importantly peace and quiet ... what is usually not tolerated here is a lack of inspiration, the daily work grind, not being understood, and excessive noise .... the energy of Jupiter in Pisces can be expressed in the following ways:
POSITIVE: mystical, visionary, imaginative, subtleness, compassionate, selfless, understanding, mysterious, magical, reclusive, inner contentment, flexible, good value, fairness
NEGATIVE: peculiar, self-deceiving, paranoid, overly obscure, indiscriminate, self-indulgent, evasive, unsociable, inaccessible, incomprehensible, self-contained, undervaluing onesself, wishy-washy, weak
Jupiter remains direct until September 4th, so take a good look and try to see where you had possibly over-expanded, physically or otherwise, gone too far too fast, and keep your eyes and ears open for new opportunities for growth and expansion that might now come your way ... take advantage of them - be careful not to overlook what could ultimately be that once in a lifetime chance !!!
