Jupiter transit 2026: Jupiter meets Ketu in your 8th house
On 31 Oct 2026, Jupiter moved from Karka into Simha. Jupiter in your 8th house (Ashtama Guru) is a testing time. Sudden expenses, delays and worries can come up, and health needs attention. Avoid risky investments, keep your documents in order, and lean on prayer and good advice.
Jupiter turns back into Karka on 25 Jan 2027 (your 7th house) and returns on 26 Jun 2027, staying until 26 Nov 2027.
Jupiter and Ketu meet in Simha, your 8th house of sudden changes, hidden matters and long life. Jupiter expands and protects; Ketu cuts away and turns you inward. Together they can end long-running problems in this part of life, often in unexpected ways, and bring a strong pull towards prayer and deep study.
Jupiter also looks at your 12th, 2nd and 4th houses (expenses, foreign lands, sleep and moksha; family, savings and speech; home, mother, vehicles and peace of mind). Its gaze works like a shield there, bringing protection and support even in a hard period.
