Jupiter in Sagittarius

November 21, 2007 - December 9, 2008

On November 21, 2007 Jupiter enters its own sign, Sagittarius, and will remain there for almost thirteen months.  Each time it moves into a new sign, it brings its expansive nature to a new area of life.  Jupiter, the planet of education, wisdom, abundance, luck, wealth, and optimism  will be particularly important and beneficial because it rules Sagittarius.  This means whatever house is occupied by the sign of Sagittarius, in your chart, will thrive during this transit.    This, of course, is a generalization because each horoscope is different.  Never the less, Jupiter’s transit usually shows an area where positive experiences are likely to happen.

One of the side effects of this Jupiter transit is Jupiter will aspect Saturn during this entire transit.  Saturn is currently transiting Leo (see Saturn’s transit of Leo to find out what Saturn is affecting in your chart). The aspect of Jupiter on Saturn will ease or improve the effects of Saturn and in some cases in may radically improve your experience of the domain of life that Saturn is affecting.

In any case, here are some of the areas of life that are likely to improve for you during the transit of Jupiter in Sagittarius:
