Jupiter in Gemini

Jupiter’s Signs

Jupiter rules the sign Sagittarius the Archer.

Traditionally it is the ruler of Pisces the Fish.

We now refer to Jupiter as the co-ruler of Pisces along with the modern ruler Neptune.

Jupiter’s Orbit

Jupiter takes twelve years to make one journey around the Sun.

With a dozen zodiac signs Jupiter will spend about one year in each sign.

The timing is not exact but is pretty close.

Chinese Astrology Calendar

Jupiter’s orbit is loosely aligned with Chinese astrology which has one sign for each year and not each month as in western astrology.

You can see the slight permutations in the movement of Jupiter through Gemini when you line it up against the Chinese astrology signs.

Dragons, Snakes or Horses

People with Jupiter in Gemini born between:

• 1900 to 1966 are either Snakes or Horses
• 1976 to 1978 are either Dragons, Snakes or Horses
• 1988 to 2025 are either Dragons or Snakes.

Jupiter in Gemini – Detriment

Detriment of a Planet

When a planet is in the sign opposite the one it rules (in this case Jupiter rules Sagittarius) it is said to be in its sign of detriment.

Ptolemy had much to say about the essential dignities of the planets and when a planet is found in its detriment it receives a weighting score of -5.

Jupiter’s Tradition Detriment

Jupiter is in its tradition sign of detriment when in Gemini.

This indicates the planets energies are not able to function particularly well or reach their full potential.

Of course as always, a full analysis of the Jupiter complex is needed to appreciate its position in any chart.

The planet of breadth has met the sign of information.
