Jupiter retrograde 2033: dates, degrees and what it means for each sign
Everything about Jupiter retrograde in 2033 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 2033 runs June 25 – October 23. Jupiter stations retrograde at 7°19′ Pisces, backs into Aquarius on September 12 and turns direct at 27°28′ Aquarius. Astrologers read it as a time to review growth, beliefs, opportunity and plans that got too big. The opposition, the midpoint, falls on August 25, 2033.
Jupiter retrograde 2033: the dates
- June 25 – October 23, 2033 (119 days). Jupiter stations retrograde on June 25, 2033 at about 21:50 UTC, at 7°19′ Pisces, backs into Aquarius on September 12. Jupiter stations direct on October 23, 2033 at about 07:20 UTC, at 27°28′ Aquarius.
Jupiter is retrograde about every 13 months, for about four months. Compared with the previous retrograde (May 19 – Sep 17, 2032), this one begins about 35° further along the zodiac, now in Pisces instead of Aquarius.
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 Jun 25 – Oct 23, 2033: key dates
| Date (UTC) | What happens |
|---|---|
| Apr 1, 2033 | Pre-retrograde shadow begins: Jupiter first crosses 27°28′ Aquarius, the degree where it will later turn direct |
| Jun 25, 2033, about 21:50 UTC | Jupiter stations retrograde at 7°19′ Pisces |
| Aug 25, 2033 | Opposition: Jupiter is opposite the Sun at 2° Pisces, closest to Earth and visible all night; the midpoint of the retrograde |
| Sep 12, 2033 | Jupiter backs out of Pisces into Aquarius |
| Oct 23, 2033, about 07:20 UTC | Jupiter stations direct at 27°28′ Aquarius |
| Dec 1, 2033 | Jupiter re-enters Pisces, moving forward |
| Jan 14, 2034 | Post-retrograde shadow ends: Jupiter passes 7°19′ Pisces 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:
- Jun 25 – Oct 23, 2033: Mercury (Jun 21 – Jul 15, 2033), Mercury (Oct 16 – Nov 6, 2033), Mars (May 26 – Aug 1, 2033), Uranus (Oct 11, 2033 – Mar 10, 2034), Neptune (Jul 23 – Dec 28, 2033), Pluto (May 17 – Oct 27, 2033).
The whole year is on the retrograde calendar 2033.
What Jupiter retrograde means in 2033
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 Pisces the subject is faith, compassion, imagination and endings. In Aquarius the subject is groups, networks, technology and the balance between freedom and control.
Who notices it most. For Jun 25 – Oct 23, 2033 astrologers look first at people with the Sun, Moon, rising sign or personal planets from 27° Aquarius to 7° Pisces, and at the matching degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius. 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 Jun 25 – Oct 23, 2033 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 27° Aquarius to 7° Pisces, and the Sun moves about one degree a day, so the dates are approximate.
Aries: 12th house, then 11th
Until Sep 12 (Pisces), 12th house: rest, solitude, endings and what you keep private. Inner growth: faith, rest, and generosity that nobody sees. What to do: take time for retreat, therapy or prayer, and help quietly.
From Sep 12 (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.
Easier for Aries born around April 17–20 (Sun at 27°–29°): Jupiter sextiles your Sun.
Taurus: 11th house, then 10th
Until Sep 12 (Pisces), 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 Sep 12 (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 Sep 12 (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.
