Transit of Jupiter in Dhanishtha Nakshatra

A major transit has taken place this week where Jupiter has transited in Dhanishtha Nakshatra. This article is an effort to understand what we can expect during this transit. Let’s first understand the important points here –

Jupiter - It is the most benefic planet and it represents all the auspicious things like Knowledge, Wisdom, Law, Guru, Spirituality, Religion, Philosophy, Literature, Elderly People and Children etc. For a girl, Jupiter also represents Husband.

Dhanishtha Nakshatra - It is a nakshatra related with wealth, luxury and lavish life. It is also a nakshatra related with music. Also, it is a nakshatra of celibacy. Please check this link for more info on Dhanishtha Nakshatra - https://www.astrosaxena.com/Dhannaksh. This nakshatra spreads between Capricorn to Aquarius signs.

Transit Duration – Jupiter in Dhanishtha Transit has started on 5^th March, 2021 and will last till 2^nd Jan, 2022. So, it is a good enough time we have for some potential events to take place. In between, from 22^nd May, 2021 to 20^th July, 2021 Jupiter will be in Satabhishak Nakshatra but then it will retrograde and come back in Dhanishtha Nakshatra.

Everything is in addition – As always, everything is in addition. In this article, we are just looking at Jupiter’s impact in Dhanishtha Nakshatra but needless to say that lords of Capricorn/Aquarius/Dhanishtha, Planets in Dhanishtha in birth chart, their dignities, dashas and other annual transits all matter. Final event will be accumulation of impacts of all the planets and energies. So, this transit of Jupiter in Dhanishtha is important but nothing is all important. Everything is in addition in astrology.

Following are the generic results we can expect with Jupiter in Dhanishtha Transit –

1. First of all, Dhanishtha spreads between Capricorn to Aquarius and Jupiter’s next transit will be in Aquarius from 5^th April, 2021. So, Jupiter’s transit in Dhanishtha during this month can give us indications of Jupiter in Aquarius transit and we can get glimpses of those results. We can at least have some idea as to events or results during Jupiter in Aquarius transit.

2. Another important thing is that Jupiter’s sign based dignity in both signs (Capricorn and Aquarius) is weak. Jupiter is in Saturn ruled signs at both places and under its impact. As Saturn represents delays, hard work and perseverance, all the results we talk here are going to come after immense delays, hard work and perseverance. At least the results in Jeeva Karaka nature will be difficult to gain.

3. Now, Jupiter represents Expansion. Dhanishtha is literally the nakshatra of wealth and assets (Dhan + Ishtha = Desire of Wealth). So, this transit can expand the wealth factor of people. This transit can be very good for person’s financial gains.

4. Especially when we see that another planet of materialistic desires Rahu is transiting Taurus/Rohini (https://www.astrosaxena.com/RahuRohini) and promising wealth, we can say that next few months of 2021 can be very good for financial well being of people.

5. It can be extra prosperous for those people who are already in financial nature of work as they are regularly dealing with the energy which Dhanishtha and Rohini represent.

6. As two expansive planets are in wealth giving nakshatras, it looks like a good transit financially. As Dhanishtha also represents assets and real estate matters, this transit can bring properties too.

7. As Jupiter represents knowledge, higher education and guidance, in most generic sense, this transit can make someone inclined towards education of financial things etc. They can join some courses in financial nature of studies. These people can also be guide or consultants in matters of finance and assets related matters.

8. This nakshatra is also closely connected with Music/Dance as Flutes/Drums are its pictorial representation. Jupiter’s transit in this nakshatra can also make them take education related with their creative interests, especially in music.

9. They can also be teachers or guides to others in such creative pursuits. Again, if they are already dealing with others through such activities then this transit can bring extra benefits as they are already dealing with this energy.

10. But at the same time, Dhanishtha is nakshatra of Celibacy and Marital Discord. As Jupiter is karaka of Married Life, this position can either create a situation where person doesn't want to get in to marriage/relationship kind of thing or even if they get into it, then it can lead to many conflicts or disagreement in relationship. So, for relationship matters, it may not be a good transit. People may have lots of troubles in accommodating with their partner.

11. At the same time, this transit can help a person in becoming a relationship counselor.

12. We can’t forget that Jupiter is weak in both the signs and it is under Saturn’s impact. Hence, first of all, all the above results can come only by way of delay, hard work and perseverance. Then person will feel frustrated as he may think that he didn’t get results as per his efforts and hard work.

13. Jupiter’s retrograde transit in Dhanishtha later in the year will make us reflect back on all the above matters.

13. Last but not the least, the houses where Jupiter will be transiting in Capricorn and Aquarius signs while transiting through Dhanishtha will also give their own effect. For example, if Dushthana houses are involved then all these results will be coming with difficulties and obstacles.

Hope this helps. Thanks,
