EYE IN THE SKY: JUPITER AT 3 DEGREES CAPRICORN AND STATIONARY RETROGRADE
Jupiter is the big dog in the sky that everyone loves and it is very powerful as it prepares to go retrograde on May 14-Sept. 12, 2020 . It is just 2 degrees away from its exact degree of debilitation at 5 degrees Capricorn and here it has a tendency to have poor judgment, be falsely optimistic and if you Sagittarius or Pisces rising, it can inclined you to health issues if there are weaknesses in your natal chart around this issue. Jupiter will retrograde into Sagittarius on June 29th and then not go back into Capricorn until November. Retrograde benefics are more powerful to do good and it also cancels the debilitation in Capricorn and increases better judgment but it is not without its problems. It may negatively impact the liver or your relationship with your husband or Guru –particulary if you are a woman.
Jupiter is very powerful in the sky 5 days before and 5 days after station so still very powerful May 9-19th until and it is a powerful week of expansion, good luck and for wisdom and this will be felt mostly on Thursday of this week, the day ruled by Jupiter . Because Jupiter is in Capricorn, you have to be practical and down to earth with decisions and ground them in facts and figures and not in hope.
From a perspective of financial astrology, Jupiter retrograde May 14-Sept. 12th may slow marketing in business and it also can slow economic expansion so by the time 2nd quarter GDP comes out in July, we will see the economy probably worse than people expect. . It is also a time for slower marketing so if you are a businessman, so take this knowledge and work harder the next week before it goes retrograde as it takes 3 x as much work to make marketing happen once retrograde starts. Sometimes the stock market will peak around Jupiter station into the week of May 11th and then congest and retrace but there are always many factors around this for prediction. We concerned about major secondary lows for the stock market and it will fall apart over the next few years as it will be difficult to dig out of what has happened.

If you were born with Jupiter retrograde in your chart, then when it goes retrograde in transit, it will trigger your issues. People born with Jupiter retrograde will be motivated to to win back things they have lost so business people may get hit by more refund requests or calling in loans or rebate requests. Jupiter governs husbands and male relationship so women may start feeling like they could do better with their spouse and think about trading them in. Jupiter retrograde can be lazy, over-optimistic, and thus miss opportunities. Jupiter may become too generous and reach out to help abandoned or rejected people and projects and so be sure to evaluate whether you really have the time to put out this effort–though always a good thing to do and especially now.
Jupiter is connected to the liver which has over 750 major functions in the body and can be slowed by this transit particularly if you have this combination in your natal chart or have a tendency toward liver problems. Make sure to drink warm water with a fresh squeezed lemon every morning which is the best way to keep your liver toned up. May be a good month for a liver cleanse if you can handle it. Avoid taxing your liver by overeating or eating very complicated fatty foods and dairy and heavy cheese. Jupiter also has connections to the pancreas so will be important not to eat too many sweets or over-indulge and too strong a Saturn continues to push us toward relief and our food cravings may get out of hand.
The spinal twist is a key posture for the next 4 months as it supports the liver and you may need to do the cow pose which also strengthens the liver. (see below). Of course make sure you get proper training from these poses from a qualified yoga instructor and do not strain.
Of course, charts are very individual and our general articles impact people differently. If you are Pisces or Sagittarius rising, have Jupiter retrograde in your chart or if you have key planets at 0-5 Capricorn , you will be impacted more by the planetary station or if you are in a Jupiter mahadasha.
