Jupiter signs: where your luck lives
Jupiter is the planet of luck, growth and generosity. Your Jupiter sign shows where life opens doors for you, what you believe in and how you grow.
What your Jupiter sign means
Jupiter is the largest planet and the great benefic of astrology: it expands whatever it touches. Your Jupiter sign shows the qualities that bring you luck, the way you are generous, what gives your life meaning and where you naturally grow.
Because Jupiter spends about a year in each sign, everyone born in the same year shares a Jupiter sign. It returns to that sign every 12 years, around ages 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60. Those Jupiter return years often bring a fresh wave of opportunity.
How to find your Jupiter sign
Jupiter stays in a sign for about 12 months, so your birth date is nearly always enough. Check your birth time only if Jupiter changed sign within a day or two of your birthday.
