Jupiter conjunct Sun
Once every twelve years, Jupiter passes over your Sun. Doors open, confidence comes back, and the risk is saying yes to everything.
What it means
Jupiter is growth, luck and appetite. On your Sun, it makes you bigger for a while: more visible, more generous, more willing to try. Offers arrive. People remember your name. It is the year to apply, ask, launch and travel.
The shadow side is excess. Jupiter does not count calories or hours. Pick the two or three openings that fit the life you want, and let the rest go to someone else.
Who has it now
Active on Nov 6, 2026 if you were born Aug 10 to Aug 26, any year. That is within 8°, the orb the app uses. Your birth time and year can move this by a day.

From mid 2026 to July 2027 Jupiter is in Leo, so this transit reaches people born with the Sun in Leo, from late July to late August.
How long it lasts
Within 8°, Jupiter conjunct Sun lasts 2 to 11 months. Jupiter hits the exact degree 1 or 3 times, because it turns retrograde on the way. The months near an exact hit are the strongest.
In the app
Solstice shows this transit when it is within orb of your Sun. Tap it, and the card shows each part:
- Jupiter. Jupiter is the principle of expansion — where you grow, where you stretch, where you say yes. Also where you overdo. The placement describes the room you have to become bigger than you have been.
- Conjunction. A conjunction is two planets occupying the same degree (or nearly so). They blend — for better or worse. Whatever each planet represents, the result reads as a single, concentrated voice.
- Sun. The Sun is your core orientation — what you are trying to become. Less about who you are right now and more about what you are growing into. The sign of your Sun describes the project of your life.

What does Jupiter conjunct Sun mean for you?
The dates above come from your birthday alone. What the transit brings depends on the rest of your chart: the house Jupiter crosses and the planets it touches on the way. Solstice reads them with your birth time and place, and talks with you about it while it lasts.
