Jupiter Retrogrades In Capricorn
Jupiter - the planet of growth, abundance, expansion, and spirit - goes retrograde today in Capricorn. It takes Jupiter 12 years to visit all of the signs and because of that, it’s been 12 years since Jupiter went retrograde in Capricorn. Jupiter first entered into Capricorn last December, where; with the help from Saturn and Pluto, created an absolute blimp in history with this current global pandemic.
Jupiter is big, extreme, too much, and is a whole lot of extra. His placement among the stars exaggerated and grew this global pandemic to a huge state of concern. I’m not saying it’s not a big deal, but Jupiter’s influence has a tendency to make things appear bigger than they actually are.
Saturn and Venus joined Pluto already in retrograde, this week and with mercury moving into his place of power, we are now positioned to do some deep karmic healing through the way we communicate with others.
Jupiter on its own, retrograding in Capricorn would lead us on an introverted journey of exploring our own truth and renewing our beliefs. Jupiter is the great philosopher of the zodiac is very connected to the spiritual journey we are here to have. Jupiter in Capricorn is about our roles and responsibilities in life and where we need to take the leadership role on being our own authority.
Now retrograde, we can move inside ourselves to take a good look at how far we’ve come, how we’ve even gotten here, what it is we believe in, where we’ve been living in extremes, and basically, we get down to the truth.
Mars has entered pisces blurring our vision of the future. Mars is usually very direct and straight-forward but is forced to go with the flow under this influence. This, paired with Jupiter’s retrograde in Capricorn will allow us to dig deep within ourselves to unleash our inner spiritual warrior; the version of us that picks ourselves up after we crumble to the ground. This fire energy is not only dangerous and destructive, but it holds the power to regenerate and birth a brand new belief system within ourselves
Be cautious of your self confidence while Jupiter is retrograde. We have a tendency to lose faith within ourselves because we are questioning everything and lose sight of what we know to be true. Don’t get down on yourself for too long. Take a minute when your spirits are high, to write down your big picture vision, your goal, your desired outcome. And every time you feel your hope and faith slipping you can refer back to your note to remind you of what you need to focus on.
Classically, a retrograde is a time to rewind, rest, reflect, rework, revise, re-organize and recalibrate. Because Jupiter is at play, you can expect all of those revisions to be in your own spiritual beliefs and the vision you hold for yourself.
