Moving at more than twice his normal speed Jupiter moves quickly through his home of Sagittarius the first few months of his transit, heading quickly towards Capricorn entering on March 24th, where he begins to slow down his pace to retrograde motion May 15th slowly making his way back home to Sagittarius on June 30th finally turning direct on September 13th where he will remain until November of 2020.
At the very start of this transit complex transit, Jupiter encounters two of the most challenging planets upon his arrival home giving quite some significance to this celestial movement and then in December he will be tangled the year end major solar eclipse.
Until the third week of January Sagittarius and Gemini become strongly activated by both the expansive influence of Jupiter and the actualising influence of Saturn. For several months Saturn and Ketu have been shaking the sign of Sagittarius where we may have experienced being plunged into challenges and perhaps even chaos. Jupiter has been somewhat blocked in Scorpio and now faces obstacles in Sagittarius, it is not until after January when we can better connect with and experience his positive energy and uplift once he moves past Ketu and when Saturn moves out of Sagittarius into his own sign of Capricorn in January.
Jupiter’s initial transit into Sagittarius will be restoring stability, truth and growth to an environment that has been subject to a dismantling over the last several months. With Jupiter’s speed of motion it may give a sense of urgency or insecurity, this is especially tricky during the Mercury retrograde. Make sure to take time to deliberate and carefully analyse before making Jupiter-and Mercury related decisions such as financial management, business expansion and education.
Saturn is our roots and Jupiter is our fruit, we need both to manifest. Jupiter aspires to reach heaven and Saturn establishes the firm foundations and with Ketu interconnected with them clearing the field for the many blessings to com in 2020.
I send you love and luck with Jupiter’s transit
