Jupiter in Capricorn
Every 12 months, Jupiter enters a new sign. Why is this important? Jupiter’s placement shows us about our collective beliefs and ideals. It directs us to where we might find opportunities. It shows us how we are personally and collectively expanding, growing, and reaching our potential.
In Capricorn, Jupiter is in its fall. This means it may be challenged in expressing itself to the fullest. Jupiter’s normally optimistic, faith-filled, adventure-seeking self may be limited. It’s not a time to “go big or go home,” but rather, to take careful steps forward, realistically assessing risks along the way.
Capricorn is the sign of industry, institutions, economy, and structure. It’s the sign of what’s practical and right in front of us. It doesn’t want fluff or frivolity. It wants what’s real. What’s tangible. It is the sign of hard work that leads to a reward. It’s a sign that sees the destination and is willing to take the step-by-step journey.
These will be prominent themes throughout the next 12 months. During this time, it’s wise to seek advice or support from mentors and helpers. Accept guidance from trusted friends, too.
Jupiter in Capricorn is careful and calculated. It doesn’t gamble if the odds aren’t in its favor. It wants structure and stability.
Capricorn is an earth sign, and as a collective, we might shine a spotlight on global and environmental matters. In whatever sign Jupiter is transiting, the matters related to that sign become magnified. Our awareness about them expands. In Capricorn, these could be issues like economic injustice and inequality, structural or institutional oppression, injustice in our criminal justice system, and our collective carbon footprint. Jupiter offers us the chance to rethink these matters and develop solutions for some of our larger concerns.
Capricorn is an ambitious sign. You might find ways to expand your business, network with others, and grow in your career.
If you want more insight into how this might affect you, think about what was happening in your life 12 years ago when Jupiter was last in Capricorn. That was 2008. The themes up for you at that time might repeat now. You could also revisit the professional goals you had at that time.
