Jupiter transit 2026: Jupiter meets Ketu in your 5th house
On 31 Oct 2026, Jupiter moved from Karka into Simha. Jupiter in your 5th house is a blessing. Children, studies, new ideas and wise decisions are favoured, and good news in the family is likely. A strong time for exams, carefully thought-out investments and prayer.
Jupiter turns back into Karka on 25 Jan 2027 (your 4th house) and returns on 26 Jun 2027, staying until 26 Nov 2027.
Jupiter and Ketu meet in Simha, your 5th house of children, intelligence, studies and past merit. 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 9th, 11th and 1st houses (luck, father, teachers and faith; income, gains and wishes fulfilled; self, body and confidence). Its gaze works like a shield there, bringing protection and support even in a hard period.
