The Silence of the Thunder: Jupiter Retrograde in Cancer.

Today, November 11th 2025, Jupiter begins his retrograde journey through the waters of

Cancer, where he will remain until March 10th 2026. He will station direct in this tender and

nurturing sign before crossing into Leo on June 30th 2026. The timing is remarkable, for this turning inward begins under the sacred light of the 11/11 cosmic gateway, a day when the veil between worlds feels thin and the call to awaken becomes almost audible. The sky hums with grace and gravity, as Jupiter, planet of wisdom and expansion, invites us to grow not by reaching outward, but by listening inward.

This retrograde unfolds under the lingering glow of the trine between Jupiter in Cancer and the North Node in Pisces, co-present with Neptune and Saturn, both retrograde as well, that started yesterday and is perfecting today. It is a sky woven with water, intuition, and remembrance. The alignment that opened yesterday still ripples through today, connecting destiny and compassion, wisdom and surrender. This is not a moment of contraction, but of gentle reorientation, as if the universe is pausing to breathe before the next great wave of movement.

The Great God turns inward, his light folding into wisdom untold. Through silence, Jupiter remembers that even faith must rest before it rises again.

Jupiter in Cancer is exalted, a guest welcomed into the home of the heart. Here, his wisdom

takes the form of protection, nourishment, and faith in life’s natural rhythms. Yet when he turns retrograde, that faith becomes quieter, more reflective. Expansion becomes introspection. We are asked to look not for what grows in the world around us, but for what grows within us, the courage to trust our own emotional truth. Cancer is the sign of memory, and Jupiter retrograde through this realm calls us to revisit the past with tenderness, to find meaning in what has shaped us, and to forgive what still aches.

The influence of Neptune and Saturn retrograde in Pisces adds depth to this experience.

Neptune dissolves boundaries and awakens divine imagination, while Saturn gives structure

to faith, grounding dreams into something we can carry. Together they ensure that Jupiter’s retrograde is not a retreat, but a refinement. The wisdom gathered now comes through feeling, not logic, through reflection, not ambition. The trine between these planets continues to open

the waters of understanding, making this retrograde a sacred descent into emotional truth.

Retrogrades are often misunderstood as delays, but they are more like the ocean’s ebb before

the tide returns. Jupiter’s backward motion invites us to reclaim what we have lost faith in,

to examine the beliefs that guide us, and to find grace in the slow unfolding of understanding.

With the 11/11 portal amplifying this moment, the lessons that emerge now are both cosmic

and personal. We are being shown that true expansion is not about more, but about meaning.

By the time Jupiter stations direct in March 2026, we may find that what once felt uncertain

has softened into wisdom. And when he enters Leo in late June, the truths discovered in quiet reflection will bloom into confidence, courage, and creative expression. The light that follows

will only be as strong as the roots we grow now.

May this Jupiter retrograde remind you that faith is not found in answers, but in presence.

Trust in the stillness, and let it show you how vast you already are.

Much love to all, Valentina.
