Jupiter retrograde in Gemini
Jupiter retrograde in Gemini reviews learning, networks and ideas. Too many interests get pruned, contacts are reassessed and plans for study or writing are rethought. It suits deepening knowledge rather than collecting more.
It begins in Libra season and ends in
Aquarius season.

Both dates are computed from the planet’s apparent motion, not taken from a
table. A retrograde begins the moment its daily movement against the stars turns
negative, and that moment is findable to the hour.
Computed for 2024
Jupiter through the zodiac in 2024
Every sign Jupiter occupies during 2024, with the dates it enters and leaves. A sign that
appears twice means the planet backed into the previous sign during a retrograde and crossed again.
