Growth in the things we can hold
Returns about every 12 years. What the transit means, then what was in the news and who was born each time it passed through Taurus since 1900, so you can test the teaching against the record, and against your own life.

That is about 9½ years away. Last time it was here from May 2024 to May 2025.

Growth in the things we can hold
Jupiter is the planet of growth, faith, teachers and good fortune. Taurus is a fixed earth sign ruled by Venus: money, land, goods, food and comfort. Venus and Jupiter are not friends in the tradition, the two great benefics having different ideas of what is good, so Jupiter's breadth here is spent on material things.
The theme is abundance made tangible. Markets, harvests and wealth grow. So does spending. The lesson is that plenty is a teacher too: it asks what is worth having, and what only looks like it.
Where did abundance in this year become something lasting, and where did it become excess?
Three questions, in this order. They work for every planet and every sign.

Anyone born under a transit carries it in their birth chart. Those with a chart in our library open straight into it.
Too soon to tell. People born during this visit will appear here once they are grown and well known.
The same transit, a generation apart. Pick any two of Jupiter's visits to Taurus and read them against each other.
2012–13 leaned to culture and sport, 2024–25 to conflict and disaster. The same transit set the backdrop both times; what played out in front of it differed.
What made the news. Every story in the record for Jupiter's visits to Taurus, 429 in all, by kind, next to the usual mix across every transit since 1900.
| Kind of story | These visits | Usual |
|---|---|---|
| Conflict and disaster | 35% | 35% |
| Politics and society | 28% | 29% |
| Science and space | 10% | 13% |
| Culture and sport | 27% | 24% |
| Treaties and agreements | 8% | 10% |
Nothing here stands out from the usual mix by five points or more. That is a normal answer: a transit sets a tone, and the news keeps its own shape.
