Jupiter Retrograde, June 16th – What is in store for you?

In common man’s parlance, planetary retrograde refers to a period when the planet is closest to the Earth, appears brightest in the sky and looks to be moving backward from Earth.

Jupiter also referred to as Guru goes retrograde on June 16th in the sign Aquarius. Jupiter moves to Capricorn while still retrograde on July 31st . Jupiter then turns direct on October 13th , in the sign Capricorn.

Jupiter is a planet of fortune and expansion. He governs finance, children, prosperity, harmony, honor, truth, honesty, spirituality, auspiciousness. While in retro motion (apparent backward motion), Jupiter would reverse its influence on the above mentioned areas.

Since Jupiter is in the sign of Saturn, the task master, the retro influence would be tough. As Capricorn is a movable sign, a planet entering in the opposite direction would affect the above mentioned adversely.

Jupiter retrograde is a good time to review what you have now and introspect on the real progress that you have made in life. The energies of this retrograde supports educational pursuits and helps to realize unfinished academic aspirations.
