Jupiter is moving direct right now
The next retrograde period begins
in 4 months –
at and will run for 121 days.

Jupiter runs growth and meaning. Jupiter retrograde turns growth inward: expanding outward goes badly, but you can finally see what it was all for. On average a period lasts 121 days,
happens roughly 1
time a year.
Retrograde periods Jupiter: 2021–2031
Eastern Time, to the minute. "Shadow before" is when the planet first crossed the degree of the coming
station; "shadow after" is when it returned direct to where the retrograde began.
Study, and finish the qualification you half-started
Revisit the plans you made to grow into – some of them were never yours
Return to ideas you shelved a year ago
Where to leave yourself margin
Taking on more on the assumption that luck will cover it
Investing in scale without a foundation you have tested
These are not prohibitions. A retrograde does not cancel your life – it shows you where the wind is
behind you and where it is in your face. If something cannot be moved, it can be done
with margin: re-read it, ask again, leave an extra day.
How this is calculated.
Our numbers come from the Moira 6.1.0 engine running on
NASA JPL DE440 ephemerides, tropical zodiac,
Eastern Time, data updated Aug 8, 2026.

The wheel uses the tropical zodiac, 0° Aries on the left, signs running counterclockwise.
The lines in the middle are the exact angles between planets at that moment.
