The Deeper Meaning of Jupiter Combust

In Vedic Astrology a planet is considered to be combust when it is in very close proximity to the Sun. The closer by degrees, the more influential the combustion. If you observe the planets, the light of the Sun makes it harder to see the combust planet. This means the influence of that planet is 'overshadowed.' Combustions generally tend to bring challenges but, as always, we have choice in how to work with these energies. 

Because the Sun spends one month in each sign each year, and Jupiter spends a year in each sign, Jupiter is combust for about one month every year. 

Jupiter represents expansion, growth, wisdom, knowledge, and good fortune. When it's combust, you may experience a lack of motivation, a lack of confidence, or a sense of stagnation in their personal growth and spiritual development. Particularly in the house where this happens for you. Get your free birth chart and see where this transit is happening for you to best understand it.
