Jupiter is the planet of good fortune and higher purpose. Jupiter lifts our sights and our spirits so that we reach for our better selves rather than stoop to our lowest common denominator. Last October 9th, Jupiter turned retrograde in the zodiac sign of Gemini. This is when it pulled the rug out from under all those things that make believing easy. This may have been when your trust in a relationship was shaken, when your job performance was questioned, or when you felt like you had lost your way. For many people, the period when Jupiter is retrograde is when doubt overshadows confidence so that they want to throw in the towel and call it quits; but if you were one of those who stuck to your path—no matter how long, winding, and dark it became—then you will see your faith rewarded on February 4th when Jupiter comes out of retrograde and starts moving forward again.
