Jupiter Retrograde (July-November 2022) – All 12 zodiac signs forecast

The planet had entered the sign of Aries on May 10th 2022 will backtrack its way into Pisces around 28th of October this year until it stations direct and continues its course in the fiery sign of Aries. Jupiter stays for around one year in each sign and its retrograde period lasts between 115 and 120 days.
Going Inwards to engage in Philosophical questioning
When its direct and moving forward we feel optimistic and hopeful about our growth and progress in whatever area of our natal chart it is transiting. We are able to put our plans into action and make significant progress whilst also incorporating the insights Jupiter bestows on us that help in continuing to expand and grow in that sector concerned. However, when the planet stations before starting its retrograde phase, the continuing growth and expansion seems to be slowing down and an element of restraint comes into our endeavors and momentum appears to be slowing down.
The negative manifestations of Jupiter include over confidence, overenthusiasm, irresponsibility, over promising and overextending self along with scattered energy and laziness. So, when the planet starts its retrogression, these negative manifestations of Jupiter get highlighted. If we had been over confident and irresponsible in a certain area of our life, expecting rewards without putting in the necessary hard work or without the requite structure in place, that will stand out to us during this period. Jupiter during this time demands we put in extra efforts if we want to see any positive outcome in that area.
Establishing foundation for the future
The circumstances under which a project we had started when Jupiter was direct will begin to unnoticeably decelerate. This is not a bad thing. Only the momentum is slowing down for Jupiter wants us to review our efforts to see where we had not been seeing things realistically and expecting growth without putting in the requisite hard work in that area of our life.
Reconnect with your internalized moral code
This is a time to enter within to reflect upon your life to reconnect with your own inner sense of what is right and wrong and what values and principles are acceptable to you. This a great time for exploring your own personal values and ethical codes and see if your goals and life direction fit in or not. As we mature and age with time, so do our personal values and ideologies that we live by. The old ones may seem redundant and outdated and we may need to review and update them to see how functional they have been in our life and to our soul growth. We may even review our own behaviors to see if we have been acting in accordance with them or simply displaying dissonance in our actions and our beliefs thus being responsible for our own self undoing.
Making adjustments and alterations in your goals
The area in our natal chart where this retrograde transit occurs will bring our attention to where we’ve had an attitude of blind optimism and excessive overindulgence. Retrograde Jupiter will demand during this time for us to be more responsible and work in the background if we are to achieve our goals in the future. It may seem that you no longer have the will or enthusiasm to follow through plans. If indeed you did not have solid plans or a realistic vision of what and how you wanted to achieve something, it may recede during this time.
Another possibility is that you may no longer want to continue with the situation in the way it has been heading and thus make appropriate changes therein so that it is more in tune with the reality and what is truly important and right for you.
It often happens that one no longer wants to, or cannot continue with the situation in the direction it was heading. Whereas if your goals and projects were realistic you may start putting in extra efforts and work behind the scenes to make your dreams a reality when Jupiter finally stations direct.
Time of increased faith and gratitude
Like any retrograde transit, Jupiter retrogrades are also a time of internal reflection and revision where one needs to slow down and engage in self-examination as to where one is heading whether it is in alignment with one’s morality and core beliefs or have, we been simply deceiving ourselves. Be conscious of the themes that emerge during this period and work on them as Jupiter is likely to reward you by the end of this retrograde period. It also happens often times during Jupiter retrograde that we begin to see things and situations in a new light and thus having the appreciation and gratitude for them which we earlier took for granted, that’s the power of this great benefic.
