If you’re ready to welcome luck, prosperity, and wisdom into your life, working with Jupiter’s energy in planetary magic is a great place to start. Known as the “Great Benefic” in astrology, Jupiter is the planet of expansion, abundance, and higher knowledge. Whether you’re looking to boost your finances, deepen your spiritual insights, or just bring a bit of extra luck to your day, Jupiter’s magic can help you open up to these energies.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to using Jupiter’s energy magically and mindfully.
Step 1: Choosing the Right Time
Jupiter is best tapped into on Thursdays, which is its day of the week. For even more focused energy, you can work during the hour of Jupiter, which varies depending on the day. Many people find their magic is more potent when aligned with these natural cycles, adding an extra boost to their intentions. If you’re into moon phases, try working with Jupiter on a waxing moon to call in growth, or the moment of the full moon for peak abundance.
Step 2: Setting Intentions with Purpose
Jupiter is all about expansion and growth, so think big when setting your intentions! Are you looking to expand your finances, grow your social network, or gain new knowledge? Jupiter’s energy can also be ideal for personal development, especially around education, spirituality, or building confidence. Be as specific as possible in your intentions—Jupiter is powerful, but you want to guide that power with clear goals. Instead of saying, “I want more money,” try something like, “I want to increase my income through a new job or opportunity that aligns with my values.”
Step 3: Gathering Your Magical Tools
To work with Jupiter’s energy, surround yourself with colors, scents, and symbols that resonate with it. The color blue, particularly deep royal blue, is strongly linked to Jupiter. Blue or purple candles (I personally prefer purple) can set the stage for your work. Herbs like sage, clove, and nutmeg are all associated with Jupiter and can be used in incense or as offerings.
Stones like lapis lazuli, amethyst, and blue sapphire carry Jupiter’s energy well. Lapis lazuli, in particular, is known for enhancing wisdom and clarity. You can place these stones on your altar, carry them with you, or even meditate with them to connect to Jupiter’s expansive qualities.
Step 4: Creating a Prosperity Ritual
Jupiter is a master of prosperity magic, so if you’re looking to attract abundance, this step is key. Set up a simple altar with a blue candle (or my lucky star candle), a small bowl of coins, and perhaps a sprig of basil or some cinnamon (both attract wealth). As you light the candle, focus on your intention of prosperity. Imagine your finances or resources expanding, filling you with a sense of security and comfort.
You might chant a phrase like, “Jupiter, bring abundance, growth, and prosperity into my life.” This doesn’t have to be elaborate—what matters is your focus and sincerity. Some like to keep the candle burning for a while or let it burn down completely as a symbol of completion.
Step 5: Seeking Wisdom and Higher Knowledge
Jupiter’s energy is especially useful for opening the mind and gaining deeper insights. To work with Jupiter for wisdom, create a small charm or talisman by anointing a stone like amethyst or a piece of jewelry with sage oil, then set it on your altar. Hold it in your hand and visualize yourself surrounded by a glow of blue or purple light, expanding your mind and inviting clarity and wisdom.
You can also keep a journal near you for any insights or ideas that come up—Jupiter has a way of bringing aha! moments and new perspectives that can help you navigate life with more confidence and understanding.
Step 6: Expanding Faith and Optimism
Jupiter is all about optimism and faith in yourself and the path you’re on. If you’re feeling unsure or anxious, try a quick visualization to connect with Jupiter’s energy. Sit quietly and imagine a blue or purple, glowing light surrounding you, filling you with warmth and strength. Let yourself feel that sense of optimism and trust.
If you want to take it a step further, you could craft a small affirmation card to carry with you. Write something like, “I trust in my path and welcome abundance and growth,” and keep it in your wallet or purse. Whenever you need a boost, glance at it to reconnect with Jupiter’s positive energy.
Step 7: Honoring Jupiter Through Gratitude
Jupiter’s energy is rooted in generosity, so expressing gratitude can strengthen your connection. Take a few moments after your ritual to give thanks, either out loud or in your heart. Thank Jupiter for its blessings, and acknowledge the energy you’re calling in. Some people like to give a small offering, such as leaving a bit of food outside for nature, to “close” the ritual with gratitude.
Step 8: Carrying Jupiter’s Energy Forward
After working with Jupiter, you’ll often feel a sense of upliftment. To keep this energy flowing, carry a small charm or crystal you used in the ritual, like lapis lazuli or citrine, as a reminder of the intentions you set. Every time you touch or see it, let it remind you of Jupiter’s expansive and abundant energy.
