What to Know About Jupiter Retrograde 2022
First, it’s essential to know that in the natal chart, Jupiter points toward where you experience true luck and expansion in life, but not effortless luck. Long-term luck and potential manifest through challenges and tests that transform an individual’s psyche and overall perspective on life.
Jupiter began its retrograde in Aries and is moving into Pisces on October 28th, where it will remain for one final trip until December. During this time, you find yourself dealing with challenges in your belief system and ability to manifest abundance.
The great teacher provides lessons of expansion that require us all to review the darker side of indulgence and excess.
If you rewind to December 2021, Jupiter took a deep dive into dreamy Pisces and emphasized major sore spots in our lives. Whether it be family, business, belief system, health, or romantic, Jupiter grabbed us by the hand to show us what we need to change and ultimately helped connect us with our inner truth and Soul’s purpose.
Then, Jupiter entered bold Aries on May 10th and took us on a new path of taking more daring risks, turning our dreams into reality, and providing us courage, enthusiasm, leadership, and an entrepreneurial spirit.
Now retrograde, Jupiter provides sufficient protection as the full development of consciousness occurs and your true potential is understood and accepted. You’ll need to wrap up loose ends and do away with outdated dreams or habits that prevent you from moving forward. Since Jupiter expands everything it touches, it will allow you to see a greater perspective and deeper truth to current situations.
There is much abundance and wisdom to gain when you travel outside your comfort zone and uncover your truth. You can expect this to be a significant time of deep introspective inner work and Soul searching.
It may feel like some of your abundance or efforts have stalled or aren’t progressing as fast as you’d hoped. Therefore, it would be best to zoom in, shift your mindset, and adopt a more optimistic attitude toward life.
