A question for the knowledgable atstr viewers

I'm situated very close to the 35th parallel and Jupiter has been moving ,since May, across the sky directly overhead or near to. When will it return and will it be in a similar location in the sky when it returns?

Question for the knowledgable astro viewers

no it will keep moving through out the skies, it will be quite some time before it is back near Scorpio again. however in 12 months time it will be overhead again, just a slightly different part of the sky

At this time next year Jupiter will be just North of Nunki in Sagittarius. More specifically Jupiter will reach opposition next year sometime around the 7th (?) of July in Sagittarius.

This time next year it will be in Sagittarius, and it wont be until around Nov
2030 that it will be back in Scorpius.

There should be some nice conjunctions happening while it passes through Sagittarius.
