What does retrograde mean?
A planet does not really move backwards. Seen from Earth it appears to reverse for a while. In the Vedic tradition this period is a time to finish, revisit and review what the planet governs.
Jupiter is currently retrograde; in these months growth turns inward rather than outward, revisiting and finishing what was left undone.
Dates match Western calendars. The sign may differ, because Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, which is anchored to the stars.
