In simple words
In astrology every planet stands for one part of you. Jupiter stands for: growth, faith, wisdom, generosity.
The sign Jupiter was in when you were born shows how that part of you works; the house shows where in life it shows up. Find yours in the list below, or open your chart.
Jupiter in your chart
Its sign shows what you believe in and how you grow; its house shows where doors open more easily. Jupiter takes about twelve years to circle the zodiac, so its transits mark chapters of growth.
At its best
Optimistic, generous, principled and wise. You encourage others and see the bigger picture.
Under strain
Overdoing, overpromising, or assuming things will work out without effort. Too much of a good thing is still too much.
Growing with Jupiter
Grow on purpose. Choose one area where you want to expand this year and give it steady attention; generosity with your time is often the luckiest thing you can do.
