Jupiter in Leo: 31 October 2026 – 2027
On 31 October 2026 Jupiter enters sidereal Leo; on 24 January 2027 it slips back into Cancer and returns to Leo for good on 25 June 2027 (JyotiSoft calculation, Lahiri). Jupiter expands the themes of the house it crosses, so this year sounds different for each Moon sign.
In short
- 31.10.2026 — enters Leo; 24.01.2027 — back to Cancer; 25.06.2027 — Leo again.
- Jupiter in Leo is in a friend's sign (the Sun's), good for leadership and creativity.
- The most favourable transits are the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th signs from the Moon.
- For a Leo Moon Jupiter crosses the Moon itself — growth, with a need for measure.
- Read the transit together with your current dasha.

By Moon sign
The house from your Moon sign (rashi) in which the event falls.
| Moon sign | House from the Moon | What it touches |
|---|---|---|
| Aries (Mesha) | 5 | A favourable Jupiter: children, creativity, study, mantra and good advice. A classic time for learning and for new projects. |
| Taurus (Vrishabha) | 4 | Home, mother and peace of mind come to the fore. Texts call it mixed: take care with property deals and keep the home calm. |
| Gemini (Mithuna) | 3 | A quieter Jupiter: efforts may take more time and plans may shift. A steady routine, short courses and time with siblings can help. |
| Cancer (Karka) | 2 | One of Jupiter's good houses: money, family and speech tend to improve. A good time to save, study and mend family ties. |
| Leo (Simha) | 1 | Jupiter crosses your Moon sign. Classical texts count this as a less easy place: more duties and restlessness; keep health and spending steady. |
| Virgo (Kanya) | 12 | Expenses, travel abroad and retreat. Spend on what matters, rest and practise: good for spiritual work, not for big bets. |
| Libra (Tula) | 11 | One of Jupiter's traditionally favourable houses: income, friends, networks and longer-term goals. A good time to make thoughtful requests, apply for opportunities and review income plans. |
| Scorpio (Vrishchika) | 10 | Career and status may shift. Texts call this mixed: work steadily, stay humble with superiors and let progress take its time. |
| Sagittarius (Dhanu) | 9 | A favourable Jupiter: teachers, dharma, long journeys, father and fortune. Pilgrimage, higher study and generosity are well supported. |
| Capricorn (Makara) | 8 | A more demanding house for Jupiter: shared finances and energy may need care. Keep a reserve, compare terms before borrowing, and use the time for research. |
| Aquarius (Kumbha) | 7 | A favourable Jupiter: partnership, marriage talks, contracts and public dealings are supported. Meet people, sign with care. |
| Pisces (Mina) | 6 | The 6th house is traditionally less favourable for Jupiter from the Moon: workload, debts and disputes may need attention. Keep helpful health routines and work through old tasks. |
Transit dates
Jupiter crosses a sign in about a year, but retrograde loops sometimes take it into the next sign, back and in again. In 2026–2027: 31 October 2026 — into Leo, 24 January 2027 — back into Cancer, 25 June 2027 — into Leo for good (sidereal, Lahiri). It moves on into Virgo on 26 November 2027.
Jupiter in Leo
Leo is the Sun's sign, and the Sun is Jupiter's friend. Here Jupiter works through generosity, leadership, creativity, children and education. The time favours study, teaching, creative projects, work with young people and anything that needs to inspire others.
By Moon sign
Transits are read from the Moon sign. Jupiter in Leo is: for an Aries Moon the 5th sign (children, creativity, fortune — favourable); Taurus the 4th (home, family); Gemini the 3rd (effort, trips); Cancer the 2nd (money, family — favourable); Leo the 1st (growth and new beginnings); Virgo the 12th (expenses, abroad, spirituality); Libra the 11th (income, friends — favourable); Scorpio the 10th (career, responsibility); Sagittarius the 9th (fortune, learning — favourable); Capricorn the 8th (change, research); Aquarius the 7th (partnership, marriage — favourable); Pisces the 6th (work, health, competition).
Applying it to your chart
Jupiter's transit gives more when it coincides with the dasha or antardasha of a planet linked to the same house, and when Jupiter is strong in the birth chart. You can find your Moon sign and current dasha in the JyotiSoft Mini App.
