Jupiter Interpretations

Jupiter is the chart's appetite for more ... more experience, more meaning, more world. It governs expansion, abundance, and the search for something larger to believe in. Named for the king of the gods, lord of sky and law and cosmic order, Jupiter carries the impulse to grow past the current horizon, the optimism that keeps reaching. In a birth chart it shows where a person looks for wisdom ... through philosophy, travel, teaching, faith ... and where luck and opportunity tend to pool. It rules both Sagittarius and, in the older system, Pisces ... the far horizon and the boundless ocean, two ways of reaching past the edge of the known.
