With Jupiter now fully engulfed in the sign of Leo, I would like to take a moment to explain a Shamanic Astrology take on how that canjupiterganymede_hst_big affect us throughout our lives.  If you were to look at your astrology chart and locate the planet Jupiter (kind of looks like the number 4).  If Jupiter happens to be in Leo (when you were born) then you are officially in a “Jupiter Return” and will be for the next 12 months.  What does that mean?

In general, it means that Jupiter has come back to the same Jupiter sign you were born with.  Jupiter’s Return sets up a way to experience expansion through the sign of Leo.  And this expansion is directly tied to “your fastest path toward your life purpose”.  Jupiter is now in the same part of the sky that it was in at the time of your birth (during Return Cycles), thereby activating the “original intent” of that planet’s instructions.  This will occur for a person every 12 years (around age 12, 24, 36, 48, 59-60, 72-73, etc).  So there are multiple opportunities to tap into the enthusiasm and fire of this middle world planet.

Jupiter will provide clues and synchronicities that help uncover ways to see those Leo tracks that radiate self-love and creative force.  If you are not in a Jupiter Return, it may be you have personal planets in Leo like Venus or Mars or even the Ascendant (not a planet, per se but an important piece of your chart).  For those without any Leo energy, this Jupiter passage through Leo gives us all a way to tap into it generally for that extra bit of energy and dynamics to balance out the structured plans of our lives.
