What it means for your Moon sign
The houses are counted from your Moon sign (the Moon chart, or Chandra kundli), the traditional way to read transits: your Moon sign is the 1st house, the next sign the 2nd, and so on. They are not counted from your Lagna (rising sign), which needs your exact birth time. Jupiter is in Cancer now, so for a Cancer Moon it is the 1st house and for an Aries Moon the 4th.

| Moon sign | House | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Aries | 4th | Attention turns to home and inner peace; family duties grow, so keep property decisions careful. |
| Taurus | 3rd | A year of effort and small moves; results come slower than hoped, so keep at it and avoid restless changes. |
| Gemini | 2nd | Jupiter favours family harmony, savings and a gentler way of speaking. |
| Cancer | 1st | Jupiter over your Moon: a year of self-examination; growth comes after early uncertainty, so avoid over-committing. |
| Leo | 12th | Expenses and distant matters grow; good for giving, travel and study, careful with money. |
| Virgo | 11th | Often a rewarding year: gains and friends come more easily and plans tend to move forward. |
| Libra | 10th | Work changes and responsibilities increase; stay steady and avoid ego clashes at work. |
| Scorpio | 9th | One of the better Jupiter years: fortune, teachers, long journeys and faith tend to support you. |
| Sagittarius | 8th | A year to go slow: unexpected changes are possible, so keep reserves and avoid big risks. |
| Capricorn | 7th | Good for partnership and marriage matters; agreements and meetings with others go well. |
| Aquarius | 6th | Competition and routine pressures rise; manage work and debts carefully and avoid disputes. |
| Pisces | 5th | A favourable year for learning, creative work, romance and children's matters; good advice comes easily. |
