Jupiter retrograde 2041: dates, degrees and what it means for each sign
Everything about Jupiter retrograde in 2041 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 2041 runs February 14 – June 18. Jupiter stations retrograde at 1°46′ Scorpio, backs into Libra on March 21 and turns direct at 21°51′ Libra. Astrologers read it as a time to review growth, beliefs, opportunity and plans that got too big. The opposition, the midpoint, falls on April 16, 2041.
Jupiter retrograde 2041: the dates
- February 14 – June 18, 2041 (123 days). Jupiter stations retrograde on February 14, 2041 at about 20:30 UTC, at 1°46′ Scorpio, backs into Libra on March 21. Jupiter stations direct on June 18, 2041 at about 06:10 UTC, at 21°51′ Libra.

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 Feb 14 – Jun 18, 2041: key dates
| Date (UTC) | What happens |
|---|---|
| Nov 19, 2040 | Pre-retrograde shadow begins: Jupiter first crosses 21°51′ Libra, the degree where it will later turn direct |

| Mar 21, 2041 | Jupiter backs out of Scorpio into Libra |
| Apr 16, 2041 | Opposition: Jupiter is opposite the Sun at 26° Libra, closest to Earth and visible all night; the midpoint of the retrograde |
| Jun 18, 2041, about 06:10 UTC | Jupiter stations direct at 21°51′ Libra |
| Sep 6, 2041 | Jupiter re-enters Scorpio, moving forward |
| Sep 15, 2041 | Post-retrograde shadow ends: Jupiter passes 1°46′ Scorpio 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:
- Feb 14 – Jun 18, 2041: Mercury (Jan 26 – Feb 16, 2041), Mercury (May 24 – Jun 17, 2041), Venus (Feb 25 – Apr 8, 2041), Saturn (Feb 1 – Jun 20, 2041), Uranus (Nov 12, 2040 – Apr 10, 2041), Pluto (May 29 – Nov 9, 2041).
The whole year is on the retrograde calendar 2041.
What Jupiter retrograde means in 2041
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 Scorpio the subject is trust, intimacy, shared resources and what stays hidden. In Libra the subject is partnership, fairness, agreements and balance.
Who notices it most. For Feb 14 – Jun 18, 2041 astrologers look first at people with the Sun, Moon, rising sign or personal planets from 21° Libra to 1° Scorpio, and at the matching degrees of Aries, Cancer, Capricorn, Taurus, Leo and Aquarius. 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 Feb 14 – Jun 18, 2041 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 21° Libra to 1° Scorpio, and the Sun moves about one degree a day, so the dates are approximate.
Aries: 8th house, then 7th
Until Mar 21 (Scorpio), 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.
From Mar 21 (Libra), 7th house: partnerships, marriage and one-to-one relationships. What you expect from a partner, and what you promised them, comes up for review. What to do: revisit the terms of a partnership, and replace a big promise with one you will keep.
Strongest for Aries born around April 10–20 (Sun at 21°–29°): Jupiter is opposite your Sun.
Taurus: 7th house, then 6th
Until Mar 21 (Scorpio), 7th house: partnerships, marriage and one-to-one relationships. What you expect from a partner, and what you promised them, comes up for review. What to do: revisit the terms of a partnership, and replace a big promise with one you will keep.
