Both planets here move quickly — Ascendant and Jupiter change position between people born weeks apart. That makes this aspect genuinely specific to the two charts rather than to a generation, which is true of only 59.9% of the combinations people look up.

What these two planets are doing

Ascendant

The first impression and the manner people meet first.

Jupiter

Where someone expands and what they consider worth more of.

At 90° the question this pairing raises is whether the initial recognition was accurate, set against whether growth points the same direction. A square puts those two demands at odds rather than in agreement, which is why this aspect is read as work rather than ease.

Jupiter moves 5000 times slower than ascendant, so the faster one sets how long the exact angle holds.
