Jupiter is regarded as one of the most auspicious planets in Vedic Astrology. Synonymously known as the ‘Guru’, Jupiter represents knowledge, spirituality, religion, higher learning, research, philosophy, optimism, and a lot more. It holds great significance and is also considered as the most benevolent of all planets; thereby being naturally associated with luck, fortune, and wealth.

Jupiter is the largest planet of the solar system and takes around 12 years to complete one circle around the zodiac. It thus stays in one zodiac sign for around 13 months, including its retrogression period of 110 days. Since it takes a long while to transit signs, its impact is often deep and long lasting. Being the planet of wealth and wisdom, Jupiter guides us to choose between various career aptitudes, and in predicting the most favourable periods for career advancement. The house placement of Jupiter suggests whether an individual will succeed in areas of teaching, management, law, spiritual, social work, banking, and so on, depending on the house it is placed on. When Jupiter transits from the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th houses, it is considered to be extremely beneficial for an individual, and depicts that the transition would exercise a strong influence on the individual’s career prospects.

By knowing the planetary placements of Jupiter, an astrologer can examine career options and accordingly anticipate the most likely career path. Corresponding to Jupiter’s transit, one’s career assessment can be invariably analyzed by blending the influences of the key houses and the planets.
