Jupiter (Guru / Brihaspati) is wisdom, dharma, expansion and benevolence — the great benefic, karaka of the 2nd, 5th, 9th, 10th and 11th houses, signifying gurus, children, religion, wealth, higher learning and lawful gain. Guru rules Sagittarius and Pisces, is exalted in Cancer (5°) and debilitated in Capricorn. Jupiter transits one sidereal sign per year (its sign change is the most-watched annual event in Vedic astrology) and retrogrades for ~120 days each year. Marriage timing, childbirth, scholarly recognition, prosperity windows and access to spiritual teachers all open during Brihaspati's favourable transits from your natal Moon.
