The tradition treats Jupiter as the planet of growth, generosity, learning and confidence. Leo, a fixed fire sign ruled by the Sun, is the sign of creativity, play, children and open-hearted self-expression. Astrologers read Jupiter in Leo as favoring warmth, visibility and pleasure in making things. The retrograde months are often read as a time to reflect on what has grown so far. A modest suggestion: set aside regular time for a creative pursuit you enjoy, without pressure to perform.
