As of October 2026, the last time was 2022–23: Jupiter first entered Aries on 10 May 2022 and, because retrograde motion carried it back and forth across the sign's boundary, entered it twice in all before leaving for good on 16 May 2023. Next: Jupiter enters Aries on 21 April 2034 and stays until 29 April 2035.
