Jupiter in Vedic Astrology

Jupiter is one of the most beneficent planets in Vedic astrology. It is linked to things like money, luck, happiness in marriage and feeling good overall. It’s also connected to the liver. When Jupiter is in a good spot in someone’s birth chart, it suggests they might have a prosperous life. It is also known as Guru or Brihaspati.

Jupiter is the Deva guru, while Venus is the Asura guru. When Jupiter and Venus come together in any house, it’s said to bring prosperity to the native’s life. They don’t clash in the heavens.

Jupiter is associated with the upliftment of the soul, leading to a spiritual life with less attachment to worldly affairs. It’s considered a realm of higher existence (“Para Loka-Sthana”). Jupiter represents Indra and governs power. It’s linked to the Rig Veda and the winter season (December and January). 

Let us tell you about the Mahadasha of Guru.

Mahadasha of Jupiter

Jupiter, often called the planet of wisdom and spirituality, rules over the guru mahadasha, which usually spans 16 years. This phase is marked by opportunities for personal growth, success, and spiritual enlightenment. Jupiter’s influence fosters expansion, prosperity, and a deeper understanding of life. It encourages the pursuit of knowledge, wisdom, and intellectual endeavours, leading to higher learning and personal development.

Let us tell you about the effects of Jupiter Mahadasha.

Remedies for a Weak Jupiter

The following remedies are suggested to make Jupiter happy and get rid of its bad effects:

• Observing fasts on Thursday. Consuming yellow items made of turmeric and gram flour. 
• Wear gold jewellery, as yellow is associated with Jupiter’s positive energy, but only if you can afford. There are other remedies that you can follow, as they are equally effective.
• Worship Bhagwan Vishnu daily, or especially on Thursdays.
• Fast on full moon days (Purnima) and perform the Satyanarayan Katha to please Lord Vishnu.
• Wearing a gemstone after consulting with an experienced astrologer. Again, only if you can afford to buy.
• Worshipping banana trees.
• Kindness is the greatest virtue. And nothing will make Guru happier than your kind and charitable deeds. So, be kind to elders and animals. 
• Giving jaggery to cows can prevent the negative effects of Jupiter.
• Recite the Guru Beej Mantra 28 or 108 times daily. You can also read Vishnu Sahasranaam daily. 
• Show respect and assistance to spiritual mentors and teachers, honouring Jupiter’s influence as the Guru planet.
