Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system and astrologically is known as the planet of luck. In your natal chart, the position of Jupiter indicates how you make the most of innate strengths and your approach to learning, growing, and self-care. It also reveals how you are likely to treat others.
When you subscribe to the idea that we create our own luck, these two traits are very important for understanding how you prepare yourself for good things to happen.
If you are born under Jupiter in Aries, you are a firm believer that you create your own luck. You always tend to be out there taking the lead and putting yourself forward for all opportunities that come your way, even if they don’t play to your strengths.
You are a firm believer in investing in yourself and tend to be very active in this area. But you are less good at realizing when you need to take a step back to rest and recuperate.
You aren’t so good at reading other people and understanding what they might need from you. Subtle signals are lost on you. But if someone asks you for a favour up front, you will probably be more than happy to help them.
Jupiter Transit & Retrograde Through Aries
While the position of Jupiter in our natal chart affects us on an individual level, the planet’s continual transit through the signs impacts us all, and especially how fortunate we feel. Jupiter takes about a year to transit through each of the signs.
When Jupiter transits through Aries, we all tend to get a confidence boost and believe that we are capable of things that may have felt out of reach previously. We all tend to find ourselves more willing to go for new opportunities and suggest new ideas than at other times. During this transit, we often realize that it is up to us to make things happen.
When Jupiter retrogrades, opportunities in life tend to stagnate and we are often forced into a time of introspection and self-reflection as we feel stuck wherever we are.
When Jupiter retrogrades through Aries, we can fall into the trap of thinking that we are the only one who has the answers and can’t hear the good advice that might be coming in from elsewhere. We often feel like we are standing in the way of our own happiness and might feel the urge to make big changes at this time.
Jupiter in Aries Strengths & Luck
When you are born under Jupiter in Aries, one of your main strengths is that you believe that you make your own luck. This motivates you to always be proactively looking and putting yourself forward for opportunities.
You understand better than most that it is up to you to craft your own destiny and that nothing just happens. If you want good things to happen, you need to make them happen.
You take responsibility for the shape and the course of your life, and you aren’t the type to blame or complain when things don’t work out. Optimism is another one of your strengths as you tend to believe that if one opportunity doesn’t work out, the next one will.
If you do struggle, it is because you don’t actively play to your strengths. Rather than focussing on what you are good at or passionate about, you tend to put yourself forward for everything assuming that you’ll be able to figure it out. While this is often true, you can fall into the trap of doing things that you don’t really enjoy because there is a big pay-off.
Jupiter in Aries Self-Care
People born under Jupiter in Aries believe in investing in themselves. You know that you are your greatest asset, and that you are also the only thing that remains consistent throughout your life. Therefore, it is only logical that you should invest in yourself first.
You are likely to be the type of person who invests in your health, your education, and experiences that will deepen your perspective on life such as travel. It may also be that you have a great haircut and nice wardrobe while you are struggling to pay the rent, because those are the things that you prioritize.
Also, while you believe in constantly investing in yourself, for you, this is an activity that always needs to be active. You need to be studying, pushing yourself to your physical limits, or working towards a bog goal. Taking time out to rest and recuperate feels like time wasted to you. So, despite looking after yourself, you can be prone to burnout.
Jupiter in Aries Generosity
When you are born under Jupiter in Aries you care a lot about the people in your life, and you want to be a rock that the people you love can rely on. But you are terrible at picking up on the signals that tell you what the people around you need.
With you, people need to be up front and straightforward. They need to ask you for what they want or tell you what they need. While this is something that you would so, not everyone is good at speaking up like this. As a result, some people that are close to you can feel neglected, despite your hugely generous spirit.
But those who do ask will find a generous and tireless advocate, supporter, and friend in you.
Jupiter in Mars Love & Compatibility
If you are born under Jupiter in Aries, you tend to approach love the same way that you approach everything in life. You go after what you want and work at making relationships to work, rather than expecting that love will “just happen”.
Others might describe you as relentless when you are pursuing someone, which is a trait that some perspective lovers will like, while others won’t.
You can also have a tendency to focus on surface characteristics, such as looks and success, at least at first, when deciding who wins your interest.
Jupiter in Aries is highly compatible with Leo, who will tick all of your boxes in terms of confidence and success, and will also be direct with you about what they want. You are also a good match with Libra, who will love to be pursued, but their sensitivity may be a constant challenge in the relationship.
Jupiter in Aries Personality Traits
When you are born with Mars in Pisces you are a natural empath and very good at understanding other people. But as an extension of this, you also need to be around other people and share most aspects of your life. The place where you are most independent is with your creativity, which is inspired by a deep well of emotional intelligence.
Optimistic
When you are born under Jupiter in Aires you are optimistic. You tend to believe that things will work out, even if they represent a big risk. Moreover, when things don’t go your way, this doesn’t dampen your optimism or enthusiasm for the next thing.
As a result, you tend to think that you are capable of everything, and throw your hat in the ring for everything, rather than playing to your strengths. While your confidence means that things do often workout for you, you might find yourself on a path than you find less than inspiring.
You could benefit from being just a little more selective in what you put your hand up for.
Self-Focussed
You are very focused on yourself and what you want and need in life. There is no lack of energy and drive in you to work hard and go after what you want, and you prioritize investing in yourself. You know that making sacrifices now, to study or travel, will pay off in the long run.
But others might call you egotistical, because you also tend to talk about yourself and your goals all the time. On top of that, you don’t seem to be in tune with the fact that the people around you have similar dreams and ambitions. You can be surprised when they reveal them to you.
Learning to listen and understand that others are just as ambitious as you will help you in life.
Energetic
Whenever you have Aries in your natal chart, it usually means energy. You have this in spades when it comes to working towards the things that you want. For you, burning the candle at both ends and filling every moment with activity energizes rather than drains you.
But, while you don’t need as much rest as many other people, everyone needs to take the time out to rest and recuperate sometimes. This is challenging for you, because when you are doing nothing your feel frustrated.
Looking for active ways to relax, such as yoga or a creative outlet, could make a big difference in your life.
