Jupiter retrograde 2032: dates, degrees and what it means for each sign
Everything about Jupiter retrograde in 2032 in one place: the exact station dates and degrees, the shadow periods, which other planets are retrograde at the same time, and a reading with practical advice for each of the twelve signs.
Jupiter retrograde 2032 runs May 19 – September 17. Jupiter stations retrograde at 2°09′ Aquarius, backs into Capricorn on June 26 and turns direct at 22°19′ Capricorn. Astrologers read it as a time to review growth, beliefs, opportunity and plans that got too big. The opposition, the midpoint, falls on July 19, 2032.
Jupiter retrograde 2032: the dates
- May 19 – September 17, 2032 (121 days). Jupiter stations retrograde on May 19, 2032 at about 14:50 UTC, at 2°09′ Aquarius, backs into Capricorn on June 26. Jupiter stations direct on September 17, 2032 at about 19:50 UTC, at 22°19′ Capricorn.
Jupiter is retrograde about every 13 months, for about four months. Compared with the previous retrograde (Apr 15 – Aug 16, 2031), this one begins about 33° further along the zodiac, now in Aquarius instead of Sagittarius.
Times are UTC. Nothing reverses in space: retrograde motion is the apparent backward drift a planet shows when Earth overtakes it (or, for Mercury and Venus, when the planet overtakes Earth).
Jupiter retrograde May 19 – Sep 17, 2032: key dates
| Date (UTC) | What happens |
|---|---|
| Feb 23, 2032 | Pre-retrograde shadow begins: Jupiter first crosses 22°19′ Capricorn, the degree where it will later turn direct |
| May 19, 2032, about 14:50 UTC | Jupiter stations retrograde at 2°09′ Aquarius |
| Jun 26, 2032 | Jupiter backs out of Aquarius into Capricorn |
| Jul 19, 2032 | Opposition: Jupiter is opposite the Sun at 27° Capricorn, closest to Earth and visible all night; the midpoint of the retrograde |
| Sep 17, 2032, about 19:50 UTC | Jupiter stations direct at 22°19′ Capricorn |
| Nov 30, 2032 | Jupiter re-enters Aquarius, moving forward |
| Dec 11, 2032 | Post-retrograde shadow ends: Jupiter passes 2°09′ Aquarius again and covers new ground |
Computed from NASA JPL Horizons. A station in the first hours of a UTC day falls on the previous evening in the Americas. Jupiter is almost motionless around a station, so the time is given to the nearest 10 minutes; the date is firm.
What else is retrograde at the same time
Retrogrades overlap, and astrologers read them together. These planets are also retrograde during at least part of each period:
- May 19 – Sep 17, 2032: Mercury (Jul 10 – Aug 3, 2032), Neptune (Jul 20 – Dec 25, 2032), Pluto (May 15 – Oct 25, 2032).
The whole year is on the retrograde calendar 2032.
What Jupiter retrograde means in 2032
In astrology Jupiter stands for growth, beliefs, opportunity and plans that got too big. Jupiter retrograde is read as an annual review of growth: you re-examine what you believe, scale back promises that outran your resources and take a second look at an opportunity you rushed past. In Aquarius the subject is groups, networks, technology and the balance between freedom and control. In Capricorn the subject is ambition, status, responsibility and long-term goals.
Who notices it most. For May 19 – Sep 17, 2032 astrologers look first at people with the Sun, Moon, rising sign or personal planets from 22° Capricorn to 2° Aquarius, and at the matching degrees of Aries, Cancer, Libra, Taurus, Leo and Scorpio. Everyone else can read it through the house it falls in, below.
What to do
Review plans, budgets and courses before expanding them, and replace one big promise with a smaller one you will keep. New ventures are not off limits; check that the growth is real. The longer guide, with the astronomy and the reading of a natal Jupiter retrograde, is on the Jupiter retrograde page.
Jupiter retrograde May 19 – Sep 17, 2032 for each sign
Read your rising sign first if you know it, since it sets the houses; then your Sun sign. Houses are counted from your sign in whole-sign style. The birthdays show whose Sun the retrograde touches directly: Jupiter covers 22° Capricorn to 2° Aquarius, and the Sun moves about one degree a day, so the dates are approximate.
Aries: 11th house, then 10th
Until Jun 26 (Aquarius), 11th house: friends, groups and long-term hopes. Your network and long-term hopes: too many groups, causes or plans for the future. What to do: invest in the few communities that matter, and update the five-year plan.
From Jun 26 (Capricorn), 10th house: career, reputation and public role. Career growth pauses so you can check the direction: recognition, title, how far you want to go. What to do: refine your goals and consolidate what you have achieved before you push for the next step.
Easier for Aries born around March 20–23 (Sun at 0°–2°): Jupiter sextiles your Sun. Strongest for Aries born around April 11–20 (Sun at 22°–29°): Jupiter squares your Sun.
Taurus: 10th house, then 9th
Until Jun 26 (Aquarius), 10th house: career, reputation and public role. Career growth pauses so you can check the direction: recognition, title, how far you want to go. What to do: refine your goals and consolidate what you have achieved before you push for the next step.
From Jun 26 (Capricorn), 9th house: travel, study, beliefs and publishing. Beliefs, studies and big journeys are rethought, and a degree or a trip you postponed returns. What to do: go back to the study or the plan, and test a belief against your experience.
Strongest for Taurus born around April 20–23 (Sun at 0°–2°): Jupiter squares your Sun. Easier for Taurus born around May 12–20 (Sun at 22°–29°): Jupiter trines your Sun.
Gemini: 9th house, then 8th
Until Jun 26 (Aquarius), 9th house: travel, study, beliefs and publishing. Beliefs, studies and big journeys are rethought, and a degree or a trip you postponed returns. What to do: go back to the study or the plan, and test a belief against your experience.
From Jun 26 (Capricorn), 8th house: shared money, debts, intimacy and trust. Debts, loans, shared assets and how much risk you carry. What to do: review what you owe and what you share before taking on more, and deal with a trust issue you have been avoiding.
Easier for Gemini born around May 21–24 (Sun at 0°–2°): Jupiter trines your Sun.
