Astrology: Jupiter Cycles & Repeating History

Jupiter changes signs every year. As I write Jupiter is now in Virgo where he will remain until September 2016. An interesting thing to note here is that Jupiter itself does not return to any single sign for 12 years at a time. This can be a helpful point to remember because as the planets make their “returns” as the wheel turns we can see repetitious trends make themselves manifest as lifestyles, events, themes, and undertakings. These lessons present themselves as second chances, opportunities to do over any unfinished or mis-stepped business from the past. This is actually a very important truth to note when considering the energies of all the planets in astrology, however Jupiter is perhaps the most balanced and consistent planet to observe in regards to our personal lives as the cycle is just long enough to reference our personal history with this energy (that and the lunar nodes, North & South). 

    Some placements of Jupiter will of course be more noticeable and profound in our daily lives. These placements obviously would be transits where Jupiter makes contact with other significant influences in our personal chart (in particular, the Sun, Ascendant, and other personal points and planets). Sometimes Jupiter will move through an area of our chart that has an abundance of planets occupying it (as an example, Jupiter in Virgo is moving through my 11th house where my Sun, Mars, and Mercury make themselves at home). This is a key turning point in any 
individual’s growth.
