Let’s delve into what Jupiter’s transit through Taurus means for each sign:

Aries (Jupiter Transiting 2nd House)

Auspicious Transit: For Aries rashi persons, Jupiter’s transit through the 2nd house of wealth, family, and speech indicates domestic happiness. This is the “artha” house. Although Jupiter is a planet of “dharma”, it also rules expansion, especially of wealth and represents bountifulness.

During this transit, family expansion is indicated and the existing family bonds will be strengthened.

It brings more and more opportunities to get to a state of financial stability. You will experience an expansion in wealth and the gain of commodities is indicated. Material possessions will increase and purchase of property is also indicated. An increase in income, possibly through new sources or promotions will be a key to new investments. Investments made during this period may yield fruitful results. However, be mindful of overspending or indulging in extravagance. Wealth can be lost if you are too optimistic in these investments and do not understand the risks.

During the period of Jupiter’s retrograde motion, restlessness and cough/cold can bother you. Be careful of indulgence, but overall health will be good during this transit.

Taurus (Jupiter Transiting 1st House)

Inauspicious Transit: With Jupiter transiting through your 1st house of self, body, and personality, there is too much focus on yourself as the planet of expansion decides to expand your personality all around. There can be bad relations with your friends and family as you ooze overconfidence. This is a good time for personal growth if you are aware of how you behave with the people around you. This transit causes obstacles in marriage because of the egotistical nature of the person going through the transit. Health problems can occur during retrogression if you indulge and do not take care of your eating habits.

This is a fortunate year at the place of work and in business. There will be a lot of self-promotion. The government of the day may not like your attitude though and there can be some conflict. This is not a good year for students. Intellect and wisdom may take a back seat.

Gemini (Jupiter Transiting 12th House)

Inauspicious Transit: The 12th house is indicative of spirituality, isolation, and hidden enemies. Hence, Jupiter’s transit through this house brings a period of introspection. You may feel drawn to spiritual practices or retreats probably just to chill and do nothing while being separated from the family as isolation and loneliness and synonymous. You may try to keep calm, but there still will be a sense of restlessness and worries during this period.

This fear and mental anguish can lead to health problems. During the period of Jupiter’s retrogression, you may find that an existing disease has again cropped up.

There can be problems with the property. Litigation is also indicated. Finances will be constrained and the source of income can be less as well. Losses in speculation and gambling are indicated.

Cancer (Jupiter Transiting 11th House)

Auspicious Transit as the 11th house transit is the best transit position for planets: Jupiter moves through your 11th house of gains, friendships, and aspirations. In your family environment, you will experience general domestic happiness.

There are no major indications of travel and the health will be good overall.

Cancer rashi persons will notice an increase in social connections and opportunities for advancement. Existing friends and mentors will be supportive. Your social circle may expand to bring in more influential and wealthy people close to you. If you are employed, opportunities for promotions will be much higher. If you own a business, there will be expansion in business. This is also a good period for students and they will be able to apply their minds to their studies.

Leo (Jupiter Transiting 10th House)

Neutral Transit: With Jupiter transiting through your 10th house of career, status, and reputation, Leo rashi persons can expect professional growth and recognition. Ambitions will be high.

On the domestic front, be careful with the atmosphere that you can create at home by unnecessary dominance and creating completely avoidable quarrels.

On the health front, be careful with lung disorders, e.g., cough and cold. Get yourself checked during this period.

At the place of work, avoid conflicts with authority figures and remain humble in your successes. The path to success is not always straightforward. As suggested on the domestic front, an unnecessary domineering attitude can backfire. During the period of retrogression of Jupiter, you may become lazy. If you are going through inheritance-related legal problems, be careful and do not let the issues become bigger than they really need to be. Conflict avoidance is the key for all problems during the next one year.

Virgo (Jupiter Transiting 9th House)

Auspicious Transit: Jupiter’s transit through the 9th house of higher education, travel, and spirituality will bring good results for Virgo rashi persons.

Good relations with the father, mentors/gurus and children are indicated. You will be able to support your parents as well as get support from them.

Long travels are indicated. There will be gains from foreign travel.

Health will remain good.

Overall prosperity is indicated and status will increase. There will be appreciation from the government and persons of authority. Income will increase. Spirituality will increase as well. This is a good period for scholars and students and for those professionals who are looking to upskill themselves. Professional success is indicated for those who will work hard because this transit can also mean that people start to take it easy and become a bit lethargic.

Libra (Jupiter Transiting 8th House)

Inauspicious Transit: As Jupiter moves through your 8th house of transformation, shared resources, and mysteries, there will be some difficulties along the way. On the family front, your spouse and father can go through periods of ill health.

Travel is indicated and so is change of residence. During the period of retrogression, some existing diseases can become worse.

Health: There can be anxiety. Stomach and liver problems are also indicated.

On the professional front, you will have mixed results. This is a good period to take loans/debt to further your business or build property. Inheritance windfall is also indicated. At the same time, there can be heavy expenditure, which you should be cautious about.

Scorpio (Jupiter Transiting 7th House)

Auspicious Transit: With Jupiter transiting through your 7th house of partnerships, marriage, and contracts, Scorpio rashi persons are entering a period of significant growth in their relationships. Existing relationships may deepen, and new meaningful connections will be created. This will be a period where your spouse will be happy and you will be able to get favours from relatives and friends.

Travel will be beneficial. The journeys will be gainful.

This will be a period of happiness and help from government officials and machinery. Overall financial gains are indicated. This is a good time to learn something new and hence it will be a good time for students.

Jupiter being a planet of expansion can indicate overoptimism. Hence you can always bite more than you chew and this can harm you at the place of work.

Sagittarius (Jupiter Transiting 6th House)

Inauspicious Transit: Jupiter’s transit through the 6th house of health, service, and enemies is not a favourable transit. There can be differences with your spouse, although the period is good for relationships with children.

You need to be cautious about your health and do not let too much fat in the system. Workouts and exercise will be absolutely necessary. However, even if you fall ill, recovery will be faster.

Frugality should be the name of the game in financial matters, in professional life and in business matters. Do not spend money on whims. This is a good period for a job change with a change in role. Even if promotions do not happen, change in circumstances at the place of work can help you maintain peace. You need to be careful about people around you. Your rivals may be overactive, or, you may suffer unnecessarily due to faults committed by others.

Capricorn (Jupiter Transiting 5th House)

Auspicious Transit: Even though the 11th house transit of a planet is considered very auspicious, the 5th house transit of Jupiter is equally auspicious in its results. Children will do well and you will have happiness in your family life. Expansion of family is also indicated. New friends will be made during this transit.

Overall health will be good.

On the professional front, gain of knowledge and favour from superiors is indicated. You will be successful in executing property transactions also. Although Jupiter helps with overall investment and your portfolio, the stock market is really the field of Mercury. Jupiter’s effect will be more of optimism and sometimes a lot of it. Risk assessment can falter. Think things through and do not make rash decisions.

Increase in your status and chances of promotion are high if they are also suggested by your dasha period. This will be a good period for students too.

Aquarius (Jupiter Transiting 4th House)

Inauspicious Transit: Jupiter’s transit through the 4th house of home, family, and emotional foundations is considered to be an inauspicious transit. Although there is security and peace in the domestic environment, this transit is not good for the relationship between the mother and children. Also, there should not be any negative emotions that are allowed to be pent up. Since Jupiter is the malefic lord of the 11th house for Aquarius, the period of retrogression can cause fear and restlessness and can cause health problems for the mother.

Be careful during long-distance travel as there are chances of accidents.

There can be a lot of focus on real estate transactions during this period. The investments and their value will increase. However, you should keep focus as there can be false accusations and subsequent financial losses due to legal problems in this area. Speculation and gambling can also lead to losses.

Pisces (Jupiter Transiting 3rd House)

Inauspicious Transit: The 3rd house transit of Jupiter is considered one of the worst transits. In the case of Pisces rashi persons, we have Jupiter as the lagna lord.

While you will maintain formal and cordial relations with everyone around you, real favours will not come by easily. This is a good period for getting married. Relationships with the father, father figure, gurus and mentors will not be very good.

Travels will not be fruitful. There is a chance of a change of residence, or you may decide to stay away from your family for some time.

You will need to be careful about your health. There can be periods of ill-health, especially when Jupiter goes retrograde.

On a professional note, you will be very creative in writing and communication with others. You will able to market yourself well. Be careful when giving loans to friends or family. There are chances you could be deceived by others and you may not be able to judge the situation properly when giving loans.
