Jupiter spends about one year in each sign and will leave Aries for Taurus on May 16, 2023, where it will stay until May 25, 2024. Jupiter is about growth, optimism, inspiration, opportunities, and what we often call luck. Taurus is an earth sign that values beauty, comfort, stability, and security. Jupiter and Taurus are both associated with abundance and happiness. While Jupiter is in Taurus, we need more grounding, pleasure, self-sufficiency, and sustainability. You may find that patience, choosing wisely, and putting in the work to take practical steps make you naturally lucky. This transit also encourages us to take a break from the stresses of life and appreciate the beauty and luxury around us — don’t undervalue things that make you feel good because feeling good attracts more good things!

Let’s break it down

Jupiter is the planet of growth and expansion. It reflects our beliefs, life philosophy, and path through life.

• Linked with confidence, leadership, generosity, optimism, religion and spirituality, altruism, and possibility. 
• On the shadow side, Jupiter can tend toward excess, indulgence, waste, arrogance, and overestimating oneself or the situation.

Taurus is the earth goddess who creates stability, comfort, and beauty. 

• Grounded, practical, and resourceful. 
• Knows how to enjoy the sensual pleasures of life and doesn’t like things too messy or complicated. 
• Some of the best Taurean qualities are determination, loyalty, and manifestation of abundance.

Together, Jupiter and Taurus encourage us to:

• Value things that make you feel good — life is meant to be ‘yummy!’
• Take practical steps to invite luck into your life.
• Look into ways to be more self-sufficient and practice sustainability.

What it all means

When Jupiter is in Taurus, it brings energies of growth and prosperity related to practical matters, such as finances, investments, and possessions. You may feel more inclined to focus on your financial security and work hard to increase your wealth. This is also a powerful time for making long-term investments and planning for the future.

Jupiter in Taurus may also increase our appreciation for beauty and pleasure. You might find yourself seeking out things that stimulate your senses, such as good food, wine, music, and relaxing under the sun. This transit can be a time of indulgence and enjoyment, but it’s important to be mindful of excess! The energies of Jupiter in Taurus are supportive of growth, abundance, and pleasure, but remember to balance these energies with practicality and responsibility.
