Jupiter Retrograde 2024: Astrology for Your Zodiac Sign

It is a time of introspection, reflection, and assimilation. It is an inward invitation, a moment to take a breath out, and listen.

For as Jupiter begins its seemingly backwards spin in our skies, it speaks from within our hearts, minds, and intuition. It invites questioning and openness, a look back upon the path we have been walking, the information we have been gathering and the perspectives we have been looking through.

And it is through this journey inward and look backward that we are reorganising and realigning the vision we hold for our futures.

When is Jupiter Retrograde 2024?

Beginning October 9, 2024, Jupiter continues its backwards spin until February 4, 2025.

What does Jupiter Retrograde Mean?

Retrograde planets in astrology bring with them profound opportunity and gifts. They are the breath out that allows for the next breath in. The reflection that reveals missing information before our journey forward once again. They are sleep – as we close our eyes and go inward our bodies have a moment to rest, repair, rejuvenate, so that we may move through the next day with energy and joy. They are the opportunity to reorganise, question, let go, realign before we move once again. And they are the moments of quiet on our journey of life, ensuring that we are walking in a direction that is truthful, fulfilling, and meaningful to us.

Welcome to Jupiter Retrograde.

A planet of joy and expansion, wisdom and growth, Jupiter is very much attuned to the future. It looks ahead, offering us its hand so that we may look with it. It holds the essence of foresight, faith, and trust. It believes in goodness. A higher guidance. And it reminds us that goodness and guidance is available for each of us.

Jupiter Retrograde in Gemini 2024

Jupiter has been travelling through Gemini since May 2024 opening each of our minds. While in the mutable air sign, it has been inviting curiosity, playful and multi-faceted perspectives and questioning. It has brought with it vast cerebral energy, mental activity – for Gemini is a sign nourished by information. Through information we grow, expand, open, shift, come closer to life.

These last four plus months have been our first journey of Jupiter in Gemini since 2013, and this retrograde will be our first retrograde of Jupiter in Gemini during this cycle. We entered a new realm in May. We walked through the door with excitement and receptivity, gathering information, looking around, having conversations, opening ourselves to the vast offerings presenting themselves in this new space. Like a child with excitement, we have been taking it all in. A time focused less on discernment, and more on gathering.

And now as the Jupiter shifts its direction, we are taking a moment to pause. In this pause there is less of an outward focus. There is less noise. We have a moment to relax and unwind. To hear ourselves and to reflect on this journey of ours.

What have we picked up in this realm, what have we brought into our minds and how has it shaped our perspectives, beliefs, ideas, future vision? What have we learned, thought about? What have we been doing here, feeling here? How have we changed here? If this realm that we have been exploring held within it an invitation for you, what would that be? Now is the time to create the space to hear more clearly. Now is the time to bring in more discernment – with what we have been gathering, what do we desire to continue to hold onto, and what do we desire to let go of?

Gemini has been a dominant energy these past months, with its vast curiosity and thirst for mental exploration. It has been inviting an eagerness, like looking through the eyes of a child to collect all it can, learning everything, analysing everything, questioning and processing everything it can. Gemini is new inspirations, new ideas, curiosities, and a flow of communication. With Jupiter in its arms, this information has been for the sake of growth.

Jupiter in Retrograde: Your Astrology Invitations

Jupiter opens doors, looks ahead, and welcomes in new potentials. Wherever Jupiter is travelling shows us where there are opportunities for expansion and a meaningful adventure calling our name. It mirrors how we’re growing, what knowledge and wisdom we’re gaining, where we’re being stretched, and where we are opening more to life – or life is opening more to us.

Throughout this retrograde, allow for space, allow for time, allow for reflection. Allow for an unravelling of your mind. To find silence, to minimise the chatter, to turn down the outside noise. Allow yourself to step back and take a broader view. This journey you are walking upon that is your life – where have you been, and where do you desire to go?

Jupiter holds the essence of higher wisdom, it invites us to be in conversation with the knowing of life, and the knowing that streams through our intuition. As we take this broad view looking at the unfolding journey that is our life – we are looking back so that we may look ahead with more of the story. We are rearranging our experience and understanding of our steps taken to get here so that we may bring more truth to the steps awaiting us.

This retrograde is an invitation to be in conversation with ourselves. Whether through journalling, reflecting, inner listening, or conversing with trusted ears. We are invited to ask questions and challenge beliefs. To observe inner narratives from different perspectives and let them become malleable, changeable. This is a time to look around at the world that is our minds and explore what lives here – letting more reveal itself than previously known, letting expired narratives come to a close, allowing for deeper assimilation of what is desired.

For Jupiter has its eyes on the future. It will always lead us in that direction. And so, we know that this moment of backward movement is ultimately in service to our forward growth, deeper fulfilment, and connection with higher truths.

Read on for your Jupiter Retrograde 2024- 2025 horoscope.

Aries Rising 

Jupiter in Gemini has held within it deep, vast, curious, and excited mental explorations, Aries Rising. How has that felt for you? How has your mind changed, and perspectives shifted? What curiosities have been calling your name and what has felt exciting? This retrograde is a time and space of slower movement and increased silence. It is your invitation to sit with all that has been moving through your mind and begin assimilating, digesting, re-writing, releasing, closing, questioning. It is a doorway through which to step into your mind, looking around at what lives within it, and going from there.

Taurus Rising

Jupiter Retrograde is an opportunity to come home to your body, Taurus Rising. It is the doorway for any over-activity, mental noise, over-analysing or busyness to simply begin dissipating from your mind so that your energy may drop downwards and inwards. And it is an opportunity to come home to the simple knowing’s that live within. The ones that exist before words – the ones that are felt rather than thought, the ones that are found in the silence and enlivened through your senses. Jupiter is offering deeper knowing and higher wisdom while in retrograde. And it is offering an opportunity for greater embodiment and knowing of your self-worth and innate value. And all its offerings are awaiting you within your body.

Gemini Rising 

Let your mind begin to unwind, Gemini Rising. Feel the earth beneath your feet and welcome in the new relationship with silence that is calling your name. Jupiter Retrograde is an invitation to step back. To observe your path with a wider lens, as if watching the timeline of your life from a vast mountain top, from different perspectives, all else silent, stars shining above and nowhere else to be. This is a time to lean into wisdom, intuition and knowing – and the role it plays in your relationship to logic, truth, and fact. And it is a retrograde to explore your own trust, faith and beliefs about this vast existence and your space in it – for life is calling you deeper into it.

Cancer Rising

It has been speaking through your intuition and asking you to trust deeper in it. This retrograde brings an opportunity to sink deeper into this invitation. To release any noise into the Divine.

It is an opportunity to explore and reflect on all that has been moving through and opening your mind, now with greater silence surrounding you.

Virgo Rising

The inner and outer work together, Virgo Rising. The impact made in the tangible is resourced by the wellspring of life living in the intangible. And the life you are building in your physical world springs forth from the emotional, energetic, and non-physical world living inside of you. These two realms cannot be separated, and this retrograde is an invitation to tend to the inner, intangible, and non-physical, and to remember its equal place in the creation of your life, the building of your dreams, your bigger visions, and the impact you desire to make.

Libra Rising

It’s all about your beliefs, Libra Rising. Your faith. Your sense of belonging and the way your cosmology shapes every moment of your life. It’s an invitation to unravel, explore, and being re-writing your own truth. Your truth gained through your experiences and the way life itself speaks through them. Your truth that streams from your heart and comes from a deep inner knowing. Your truth of what life means to you that doesn’t need to be accepted, or even understood, by anyone else to be valid for you. This retrograde, let your mind begin to rest as you give it permission to tune into the truth, knowing, beliefs, and trust that live within you already.

Scorpio Rising

Jupiter retrograde invites a deep inner surrender to yourself, Scorpio Rising. For there are entire worlds within you waiting for your presence. It’s an inward journey beneath the surface, blurring the boundaries between conscious and unconscious, revealing wisdom, knowing, truth, and empowerment in the process, re-writing your beliefs, sense of belonging, strength and trust in yourself in the process. Throughout this retrograde, there is an invitation to begin stripping back any layers, fears, or emotions that keep you from intimacy and vulnerability with yourself and all that lives within you, and from life and the way it speaks to you.

Sagittarius Rising

In a way, it’s very much your retrograde, Sagittarius Rising. For your planetary ruler is Jupiter. Your guiding compass, energy, and essence is this planet beginning its backwards spin through the cosmos. Throughout this time, you are invited to revisit and contemplate on your relationship with life itself and your belonging within it. For this relationship feeds into and shapes every moment of your life. It’s an invitation to explore your relationship with others, too – your chosen people and the way they mirror what lives within you, conscious and unconscious, and all that you bring to them. And it’s an invitation to review your relationship with intuition and logic, knowing and truth, belief and information.

Capricorn Rising

And pockets in your day to speak to life, listen to your heart, and tune into intuition. For Jupiter in Gemini since May has been bringing vast movement, building, excitement, and variety into your everyday living. It has been turning up the pace and offering information, conversation, processing, and exploration. This is an opportunity now to review all this movement, and to remember the practicality within rest, the momentum that springs forth from silence, and the way life, knowing, and truth can be found in these spaces of contemplation.

Aquarius Rising 

Jupiter has been guiding you on a quest, Aquarius Rising. Taking you by the hand together there has been an exploration on how creation, life force, and joy move through you. It has been an exploration of how you express yourself, how you bring what lives within you – the unique spark that is you and no one else – and share it into the world around you. What have you experienced on this quest? What has this journey of self-expression revealed to you? Jupiter Retrograde is the time to explore these questions. To take all that you have journeyed, sit with it, let it speak to you, and get to know yourself in a new way in the process.

Pisces Rising

Jupiter Retrograde is an invitation to turn inward, Pisces Rising. To turn inward and travel down into your being, your roots, past times, memories, psyche, and formative years. It’s an invitation to reconnect with the child alive within your heart, and the knowing deep within your bones. It’s a space to remember yourself as your own home, clearing away what lives within you that is not yours, healing the spaces that feel unsafe, making friends with the spaces that feel unknown. This retrograde is offering deep inner healing that travels deep into the roots of self, backwards in time, and forwards in time, so that you may remember life, wisdom, beauty, faith, and truth all within you.
