jupiter is afflicted by being retrograde (going backwards) and stuck in 12th. It does however, give a guardian angel feel and protection.Ruler of the Fifth House in the Twelfth House
"Some of your love affairs may take place behind the scenes or you may choose to keep your romantic activities to yourself. Given a choice you'd rather keep your social activities private. You enjoy being by yourself at times and you can do some of your finest creative work while spending some time alone." http://www.skyviewzone.com/astrology/houserulerships.htm#hr5
I notice your progressed sun has just changd signs into Aries for it's next 30years stay so you should feel more firey, energetic
understanding your jupiter natal aspects may help to...
"Jupiter in the Twelfth House: can hide their "joviality", their cheerfulness. However, while it can limit "luck" as far as getting things for you, it can also protect you from physical harm, especially from enemies. One client was a tank commander in an Asian war. His tank received a direct hit from an enemy tank at a range of about 300 yards. He told me that usually when that happens, they have to scrape the remains off of the walls of the tank. He and all his crew got out with only a few scratches. The tank was a total loss. Another client was, as a child, shot accidentally with a 22 rifle. The bullet ricocheted off of her rib and just missed her heart." http://www.bobmarksastrologer.com/twelthhouse.htm
"Jupiter opposition Saturn
The opposition between Jupiter and Saturn suggests difficulty in recognizing personal limitations. In one sense this is good. You continue to plod forward in the face of just about any adversity, and you may face a good deal of adversity. This aspect often shows success coming in the later part of life. There is a tendency to compare yourself unfavorably with other people." http://www.skyscript.co.uk/jupiteraspects.html#juosa
Mercury Quincunx Jupiter
Exaggeration is second nature to you. Whatever you focus on tends to grow in your mind without anything happening in the external world. Circumstances in life can easily seem much better or much worse than they really are. Learn to trust other people's assessment and to judge life more on the concrete facts and less on moral pronouncements which tend to be very colored by self justification and avoidance. http://www.cafeastrology.com/natal/quincunxinterpretations.html
Now Jupiter trine venus is *LOVELY* and usually endows people with loving relationships. Venus also has a sextile to saturn, which should help structure things. But she also has Uranus and Neptune and this shows rose tinted glasses in romance AND finances. Venus square uranus is a divorce aspect...
retro jupiter is not currently making any aspects to any planets within your chart or Angles ie: Asc/Mc
progressed planets/charts are more 'internal' changes, evolvements rather than 'events or external' matters. I don't read prog charts as stand alones it's more important to see where these planets are moving in the natal chart
Your natal chart is like a photograph as unique as your fingerprint, BUT the 10planets in the sky have not stayed where they were in your natal chart, they have all moved. Predictive astrology is mostly maths where those 10planets are now and the mathematical aspects they make to your natal charts ie: 180'=opposition, 90'=square, 60'=sextile and 120'=trine.
So your personality, grows, develops, changes, matures as we get older, this is reflected by your sun sign changing from it's natal position to the next sign along, so does your Asc and MC sign change. In fact from sun to mars especially are important, as the outer planets really don't move much, using a 'day for a year' secondary progressions.
What's the difference between Transits and Progressions?
“Transits are the planets currently orbiting in the sky and the relationships they form to each other and additionally, to your chart. Transits happen for everyone. They're important and effect you personally when they contact a planet or point in your chart. Transits represent outside energy, things happening outside yourself. They describe external events and your responses to them. Progressions, however, move very slowly and are a natural progression of your original birth chart. The events and emotions they describe are part of you, deeply ingrained in your psyche, internal, and psychological. And as they form aspects, these inner feelings start to become more important and central to your life” http://www.artcharts.com/learn_astrology/progressed.html

“2) The aspects formed by the progressed MC, ASC, Sun, and the planets (other than the Moon). These will indicate major trends for a year or more surrounding the date on which they become exact.” http://www.astrologymatch.com/progressed-chart.htm
The most important of progressed planets is of course, sun & moon and then upto mars, as the outer planets hardly move by progression. Now like with transits, solar arcs --- it's what these progressed planets are doing NOW by mathematical aspect to your natal planets and Angles that is ultimately important.
hope this helps?
