  • November 16, 2037 – March 15, 2038 (119 days). Jupiter stations retrograde on November 16, 2037 at about 02:20 UTC, at 29°47′ Cancer (the evening of November 15 in US time zones). Jupiter stations direct on March 15, 2038 at about 17:50 UTC, at 19°43′ Cancer. Most of this retrograde falls in 2038; its reading for each sign is in Jupiter retrograde 2038.

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).

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 Jupiter retrograde means in 2037

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 Gemini the subject is information, conversation, learning and a restless mind. In Cancer the subject is home, family, belonging and emotional security.

Who notices it most. For Oct 14, 2036 – Feb 9, 2037 astrologers look first at people with the Sun, Moon, rising sign or personal planets between 16° and 26° of Gemini, and at the same degrees of Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces. For Nov 16, 2037 – Mar 15, 2038 astrologers look first at people with the Sun, Moon, rising sign or personal planets between 19° and 29° of Cancer, and at the same degrees of Aries, Libra and Capricorn. 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.
