Jupiter Direct Is Picking Up the Pace — and These 3 Zodiac Signs Are in for a Whirlwind

The heavens and energy will awaken now that Jupiter retrograde is ending on Feb. 4!

Jupiter — the planet known as the "Great Benefic" — will usher in a period of expansion, luck, blessings and more for the collective after going direct in Gemini on Feb. 4, ending its four-month-long retrograde, which began in October.

Celebrity astrologer Kyle Thomas tells PEOPLE that the end of this retrograde will allow you to "reassess ways to pivot" and "manifest more potently" now that "Jupiter is awake." He explains that while this time will especially "bring expansion and joy" to areas Gemini rules — such as communication, travel, the mind, academics and social media — the planet will also be in "detriment," meaning Jupiter "will have a harder time distilling its energy to bring us rapid and expansive results."

Since "Gemini craves freedom and adventure," the collective will also embrace this and "will need to be more intentional and focused rather than just spinning off in a whirlwind."

Thomas adds that those who can focus those energies will be able to "speak, learn, write and connect more potently and build their networks" and the "pace of life will be livelier, upbeat, optimistic and engaging."

Read on to learn what Jupiter going direct in Gemini has in store for your zodiac sign.

Aries (March 20-April 19)

It's time to "pick up the pace" Aries! Thomas says Jupiter will "glide through your intellectual zone until June 9, 2025."

"Typically, this brings a much faster pace to life, as you travel more and seek to step outside your comfort zone," he explains. "Important contracts and communication-related projects tend to appear for you, too, such as starting a podcast or blog or becoming more well-known as an influencer in your world. You will be eager to learn and experience more."

He adds that this is a time to "expect more social activity, especially with friends, neighbors or siblings."

Taurus (April 19-May 20)

Taurus, you will be experiencing plenty of abundance, especially when it comes to your finances since Jupiter will grace your wealth zone!

"This is magnificent because it will likely attract to you a raise, far greater streams of income, a new job, or many lucrative clients," Thomas explains. "Demand for your services will surge and you should be able to start to add more wealth to your accounts."

He adds that while the universe will help you reach your financial goals, "you must take action, know your worth, and try to harness your skills to bring in more abundance. If you simply sit back and expect money to rain from the sky, that is much less likely to bring you what you desire."

Gemini (May 20-June 20)

You're officially in your glorious era, Gemini! Thomas says Jupiter direct in Gemini will "usher in a dawning of your next era as if you’re starting to write a whole new storybook for your life."

"You will be blessed with tremendous luck, fortune, blessings and new beginnings personally and professionally," Thomas explains, adding that "the key to harness this cosmic flow is by being intentional and stride quickly toward your goals and lay seeds for what you seek to manifest in the year and decade ahead."

This will be "one of the most fortunate periods in your life to reach true happiness, find a soulmate and see dreams come true."

Cancer (June 20-July 22)

Life has been slower for you, Cancer, but things are set to pick up now. Thomas explains that since Jupiter "entered your sector of privacy until June 9, 2025," this year may feel slower because "you’re experiencing a vast period of reflection and development."

"You’re favored around all of the following themes during this time: healing, mental health, spirituality, creativity, intuition and psychic abilities and aligning with the universe," Thomas says. He adds that this is a great time to "develop long-term business plans or projects, write a book by yourself or just get more engaged in cultivating your skills."

Leo (July 22-Aug 22)

Leo, life is going to feel like a party again! Thomas says that Jupiter has been "spinning in your sector of fulfillment" since May 25, 2024, and will stay there until June 9.

"This will bring so much luck, fortune, prosperity and fortune to you and could help you to reach some of your personal and professional goals, too," he continues. "You will likely attract a far more festive social life, spend time with platonic soulmates or new ones or each reach a heartfelt dream."

Thomas adds that this is a great time to "ask for favors, network and embrace your popularity" to unlock the path before you." You will be able to "enjoy all of this cosmic magic and shimmer like the star that you are!"

Virgo (Aug. 22-Sept. 22)

Virgo, you're at the precipice of professional success! Thomas explains that "for those already on the right track, you’re set to experience a year of tremendous career growth and advancement around your ambitions."

You can expect plenty of "big wins, triumph, fame, glory, promotions, new job offers and beyond," but "you can’t just sit back and expect the universe to do all the work." He says that "the key to maximizing all of this magnificent potential is to strike while the irons are hot." He adds that "if you aren’t finding the open roads in your career, you may need to pivot in a new direction or try your hand at something else altogether."

Libra (Sept. 22-Oct. 22)

Big things await you during this time Libra! Thomas says that "you’ll feel invigorated for more change, spontaneity and to pursue personal and professional growth."

He explains that you will "feel and appear more magnetic and inspired, as you hunger for adventure" and that you'll feel inclined to pursue a variety of avenues like long-distance travel, international relations and media projects. Whatever pursuit is calling your name, he points out that it's crucial to put yourself out there.

Scorpio (Oct. 22-Nov. 21)

New opportunities are on the horizon for Scorpio placements. Thomas says that these Water signs "will be gifted opportunities around wealth creation, assets, investments or large money matters."

For Scorpios in established relationships, this energy will "help you to get closer, more vulnerable and more sensual with a significant other" since Jupiter's energy will be most potent in your sector of intimacy.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Sagittarius, your power is in partnerships. Thomas says that "those in established unions could find that they’re growing together in beautiful ways, making long-term promises, getting engaged, moving in or even being wed" between now and June 9.

This energy will also help anyone in "a business union or looking for a professional assistant." If you're single, Thomas explains that you can still harness this energy and "align with a soulmate connection that mirrors you, pushes you out of your comfort zone, and provides the sense of connection you’ve been dearly craving."

Capricorn (Dec. 21-Jan. 19)

Capricorn, Thomas says you'll be "working like a well-oiled" machine when Jupiter goes direct.

"The pace of life will quicken and your daily responsibilities will increase," he explains. "You may now take on more projects with your employer or clients, find you’re working much harder, or get hired by a better job. You will be firing on all cylinders, managing many routines and your work and life balance."

For example, you may find "your relationships with coworkers or direct reports will improve" or "your pets will bring you plenty of joy." This is also a great time to "improve your physical health, diet or fitness and reach those goals."

Aquarius (Jan. 19-Feb. 18)

Aquarius, life will be a grand expression of joy for you! Thomas says you're set to "have luck around love and dating, hobbies and recreation, sports, and creativity and expression" during this time.

Thomas adds that this could be the time to "find your true love if you're single, get closer to your soulmate and find that your free time and hobbies improve." You may even feel "like little stars or celebrities as people applaud your talents and skills."

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This may be the turning point you've been waiting for Pisces! Thomas says that you may feel "a sense of security going forward" since "Jupiter is gracing your sector of home, family and domesticity."

During this time, "you may enjoy more joy at home, your emotional life may improve, and people from your past life may come into your life." This will make you feel like you're on stable ground and may usher in a more "nostalgic and reflective" period.
