Jupiter in the Houses

Jupiter in astrology represents expansion, morality, and good fortune. The house placement of Jupiter is where we have the most luck, optimism, and a desire to explore. It is also where we can be prone to excess, tend to skate by on our likability, and seek novelty or an escape when things become boring or uncomfortable. The house of our Jupiter can also show where and how our morals were molded.

With Jupiter in the 1st, luck and good fortune seem to follow wherever you go!
