Jupiter (Guru / Brihaspati) in Lal Kitab Astrology: Effects, Significance, and Remedies

In Lal Kitab astrology, Jupiter (Guru or Brihaspati) is regarded as a noble, benevolent, masculine, and highly auspicious planet. It symbolizes wisdom, morality, generosity, spiritual growth, optimism, expansion, and righteous judgment. Jupiter governs the higher intellect and soul, shaping one’s sense of justice, ethics, faith, and purpose in life.

Jupiter strongly influences education, religion, philosophy, law, finance, economics, banking, scriptures, teachers, elders, and children. It also indicates wealth, health, good conduct, progress, prosperity, and the blessings of past karmas.

Planetary Nature and Strength of Jupiter

Jupiter rules Thursday and represents the yellow color. In Lal Kitab, it is considered the Karaka (significator) of the 2nd, 5th, and 9th houses.

Friendly planets: Sun, Moon, Mars
Enemy planets: Mercury, Venus
Neutral planets: Saturn, Rahu, Ketu

Jupiter is exalted in the 4th house and becomes debilitated in the 10th house.
It generally gives favorable results when placed in the 1st, 5th, 8th, 9th, and 12th houses, while the 6th, 7th, and 10th houses are challenging for it.

Jupiter rarely gives harmful results when placed alone. However, when afflicted by Saturn, Rahu, or Ketu, or when Venus or Mercury occupies the 10th house, Jupiter’s positive energy weakens. A malefic Jupiter strongly affects children, especially sons (Ketu significations).

House-Wise Effects and Remedies of Jupiter

Jupiter in the 1st House

Jupiter in the ascendant blesses the native with wealth, good health, fearlessness, and leadership qualities, even if formal education is limited. Growth occurs every eight years, often supported by government connections.

If the 7th house is empty, prosperity increases after marriage. However, constructing a house or marrying in the 24th or 27th year may negatively affect the father’s longevity. Saturn in the 9th brings health issues, while Rahu in the 8th can indicate sudden loss of the father.

Remedies:

Donate items related to Mercury, Venus, and Saturn at religious places
Serve cows and help the underprivileged
Avoid building a house if Saturn is in the 5th
Avoid Saturn-related machinery if Saturn is in the 9th
Avoid alcohol, meat, and eggs if Saturn is in the 11th or 12th
Wear silver in the nose to reduce Mercury’s negative effects

Jupiter in the 2nd House

Here Jupiter’s results are influenced by Venus, even if Venus is placed elsewhere. Since both are enemies, conflicts arise. Trades related to gold or jewelry may harm marital harmony and wealth.

Despite difficulties, the native gains honor, paternal property, and admiration from women. Favorable planetary combinations can bring gains through lottery or inherited property.

Remedies:

Practice charity and regular donations
Offer milk to snakes to reduce Saturn’s negativity
Fill potholes or broken land near the house

Jupiter in the 3rd House

This placement makes the native learned, wealthy, and supported by government income. Saturn’s position plays a crucial role—when favorable, longevity and intelligence increase; when unfavorable, friends may cause financial loss.

Association with enemy planets can completely ruin the native.

Remedy:

Worship Goddess Durga, feed young girls sweets and fruits, and seek their blessings
Avoid flatterers and opportunistic companions

Jupiter in the 4th House (Exalted)

This is one of the strongest placements of Jupiter. The native gains property, authority, wealth, divine protection, and government support. Prosperity increases with age.

However, keeping a temple with idols inside the house cancels these benefits and may cause poverty and marital disturbance.

Remedies:

Do not establish a temple inside the house
Serve elders regularly
Offer milk to snakes
Maintain personal modesty

Jupiter in the 5th House

This house belongs to Jupiter and the Sun. Prosperity multiplies after the birth of sons, and honesty ensures Jupiter’s blessings. However, unfavorable placements of Mercury, Venus, or Rahu can disturb results.

Remedies:

Avoid accepting donations or gifts
Serve priests and spiritual teachers

Jupiter in the 6th House

This house combines the effects of Mercury and Ketu. A benefic Jupiter makes the native spiritual, content, and fortunate. Donations in elders’ names bring blessings.

If Jupiter, Mercury, and Ketu are all afflicted, misfortune lasts until age 34. Jupiter here may cause respiratory issues for the father.

Remedies:

Donate Jupiter-related items in temples
Feed roosters
Offer clothes to priests

Jupiter in the 7th House

This placement brings mixed results due to Venus’s influence. Luck improves after marriage, debts are avoided, and children are good. Moon’s position decides overall marital happiness.

A malefic Jupiter here can cause marital problems, theft tendencies, loss of government support, and conflict with the father.

Remedies:

Worship Lord Shiva
Do not keep idols inside the house
Carry gold wrapped in yellow cloth
Avoid yellow-clad sadhus and fakirs

Jupiter in the 8th House

Though Jupiter struggles here, the native still enjoys material comforts and divine help during crises. Wearing gold protects health and peace.

If Mercury, Venus, or Rahu are badly placed, the father may suffer illness and the native may lose reputation.

Remedies:

Offer wheat, barley, and coconut in running water
Plant a Peepal tree near a cremation ground
Offer ghee, potatoes, and camphor in temples

Jupiter in the 9th House

This is a powerful placement. The native is fortunate, wealthy, religious, truthful, long-lived, and blessed with good children.

If Jupiter is afflicted, the native becomes atheistic and unlucky.

Remedies:

Visit temples daily
Avoid alcohol
Offer rice in flowing water

Jupiter in the 10th House (Debilitated)

Since this house belongs to Saturn, success comes only by adopting Saturn-like discipline. If supported by the Sun or friendly planets, wealth and status increase.

A malefic Jupiter here leads to poverty, sadness, loss of ancestral property, spouse, and children.

Remedies:

Clean the nose before starting work
Throw copper coins in running water for 43 days
Donate almonds
Do not establish idols inside the house
Apply saffron tilak daily

Jupiter in the 11th House

This placement harms the significations of Mercury, Venus, and Rahu. As a result, the wife, daughters, sisters, and paternal aunts may suffer. The native remains debt-ridden unless supported by family unity.

Remedies:

Always wear gold
Wear a copper bangle
Water a Peepal tree regularly

Jupiter in the 12th House

Here Jupiter and Rahu create mixed results. With good conduct, spirituality, and ethical living, the native becomes wealthy, powerful, and mentally peaceful. Avoiding Saturn-related negativity makes machinery and vehicle businesses profitable.

Remedies:

Never give false testimony
Serve sadhus, Peepal gurus, and Peepal trees
Keep water and fennel seeds near the head while sleeping

Final Insight

In Lal Kitab astrology, Jupiter is the planet of divine grace, wisdom, and destiny expansion. When respected through ethics, charity, discipline, and faith, it grants wealth, children, honor, and spiritual growth. When ignored or afflicted, even luck turns away. Remedies in Lal Kitab focus more on conduct and responsibility than rituals, making Jupiter the true teacher of karma and righteousness.
