What turning direct means

After about four months of seeming to move backwards, Jupiter starts moving forward again. Opportunities that went quiet start to come back, and growth that slowed down picks up.

Slow and steady

Jupiter is a slow planet, so the change is gentle rather than sudden. You may notice it over a few weeks as plans start to move and doors open a little more easily.

What to do now

Act on the reflection you did. Apply for the course, plan the trip, say yes to the bigger opportunity. You have a better idea now of what you actually want to grow.

What to look back on

Notice what you learned about your beliefs and hopes while Jupiter was retrograde, and what you are already lucky to have.
