What Is Your Jupiter Return?

A planetary return is when a planet moves or transits back to where it was on the day you were born. Some planetary returns only take a year, such as the sun, Mercury, and Venus. For instance, it’s on the yearly return of the sun that you celebrate your birthday. The moon only takes a month, in line with the lunar cycle. Mars takes around 2.5 years. Other planets can take many years to return to this point, such as Jupiter, which returns every 12 to 13 years. These returns can form powerful aspects with placements in your birth chart.

Jupiter is one of the two Great Benefics, with Venus being the other. Jupiter brings good luck, abundant blessings, and growth. It expands everything it touches in your chart. Even if an aspect seems unfavorable, it tends to have a sweeter and softer effect if it involves a Great Benefic like Jupiter.

Jupiter In Astrology

Jupiter, in astrology, is the natural ruler of the ninth house. The ninth house is associated with higher learning, philosophy, publishing, long-distance travel, higher knowledge, adventure, and spiritual awakening. Jupiter is all about your good fortune, luck, generosity, wisdom, opportunity, and faith. Jupiter also rules Sagittarius. In traditional astrology, Jupiter also ruled the second house, as well as Pisces.

When Does Jupiter Return?

When you experience your Jupiter Return, it moves back into the exact zodiac sign and degree it was in on the day of your birth. You can expect to experience your Jupiter Return roughly once every 12 years, around the ages of 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, and beyond.

You’ll feel Jupiter Return’s impact most strongly for a few weeks, but you may notice small aftereffects from your Jupiter Return all year long.

What To Expect From Your Jupiter Return

Each 12-year cycle brings a chance to let go of that which no longer serves you and embrace the exciting new adventures that await. When Jupiter alights upon you, it brings happiness, optimism, prosperity, and good luck. It helps you grow into the person you’d like to be. Be aware, however, that Jupiter also expands and amplifies things, so it would be wise to avoid overindulgence and messy excess during this time.

Positivity & Confidence

During a Jupiter Return, you’ll feel a greater sense of confidence, a more positive outlook, a deeper feeling of hope, abundant inspiration, and an increase in faith. Your sense of self-worth may be magnified. You’ll feel more generous toward other people and will have unique opportunities to learn. Your philosophy, thought processes, and horizons will expand. You’ll start to realize that all things truly are possible.

New Opportunities

Positive synchronicities abound during your Jupiter Return. Kind and helpful people appear and assist you. Financial blessings flourish, doors that once seemed closed suddenly fly open, good things fall into place, wonderful events happen out of the blue, and the Universe generously blesses you with joyous bliss. In general, expect your Jupiter Return to bring luck!

Time For Growth

During your Jupiter Return, you can expect rapid expansion and growth in different areas of your life, usually for the positive, so long as you don’t let yourself overindulge! Pursue your dreams right now, and you’ll get closer than ever before. On an intuitive level, your inner wisdom blossoms, and you’ll feel closer to Spirit. You may go on a faraway trip you’ve always wanted to take, or journey further into meditation and get more in touch with your spiritual gifts. Either way, serendipity will abound!

Making the Most of Your Jupiter Return

Your Jupiter Return is a time to truly embrace all the gifts and qualities associated with this powerful planet. Adopt an attitude of gratitude to continue manifesting your desires. It can help to write down your goals or affirmations as well. Be sure to keep what you write in the positive present tense, for example: “Abundance comes my way,”

Consulting with an expert Astrology Psychic or Life Path Psychic can also help you access the powerful energies of this transit.

Give the Universe time to work for you. Sometimes you may feel disappointed if you don’t receive exactly what you expect. Instead of saying “that’s not enough,” instead be thankful for every good thing you receive, no matter how seemingly small or insignificant.

This is the time to name, claim, accept, and receive the good things in your life. No matter what it is you’re hoping for, Jupiter will be highly responsive to you, especially during your return.

Relish in your renewed belief in yourself and all you have to give, and trust that you will leave your Jupiter Return more empowered than before.
