Jupiter is the great benefic, and its trump is the Wheel of Fortune, turning luck and cycles over time. It rules Sagittarius and Pisces, faith that travels and faith that dissolves into compassion. Its decans include the Six of Wands' victory and the Nine of Cups' wish come true. Where Jupiter touches a card, things grow, for better or for more.

Jovial cards suggest expansion, luck and wider meaning. They also warn that more is not always better.
Correspondences follow the Golden Dawn system the Rider–Waite–Smith deck was made within (tropical zodiac, dates approximate; they shift by a day in some years). Other traditions assign some cards differently. See the full table for all 78 cards.
