Pisces
Saturn will continue to move in Pisces throughout 2024, making you work harder in this area of life, invest time and energy, learn to take responsibility. If you were born after sunset and before sunrise (i.e. you have a nocturnal birth chart), you may experience more obstacles, suffering, or setbacks in this area of life. In more difficult cases, situations may arise where there is a wall in your path and you cannot continue along this path - then you have to find a new path, because the previous journey is no longer for you. It depends on how much you have stepped on the path of life by listening and following your heart. Saturn is known in astrology as the Great Teacher. His goal is to teach you and guide you to work on yourself - to put you in different situations so that you learn to take responsibility and stand up for yourself, so you would gain experience and knowledge (which can therefore also lead to mastery in a certain field) to learn to face your fears.
Saturn is moving through your 1st house, bringing you more responsibility, sense of duty, and making you more mature. During this period, you have to take care not to take on more than you can handle. In addition, Saturn now gives you the determination and persistence to complete the plans you have started. If you want to change something about yourself (for example, lose weight), then Saturn gives you the persistence to work on yourself. On a slightly more negative note, Saturn can make you more pessimistic and prone to anxiety and depression, so try to find activities that bring you joy and get more active (or keep moving if you're already doing it) to keep your stress levels under control. Be your own best friend and offer yourself support and care, because you tend to be particularly self-critical during this period. Sometimes you may be inclined to take out criticism on others.
The nodes of the Moon will move in 2024 through the signs of Aries and Libra. Eclipse periods bring new beginnings and endings to your life to push you along the path your soul has come to experience on its earthly journey. It is time to let go of what has served its time and embrace the new. Sometimes these changes are internal, sometimes external. The less you follow the call of your fate, the more dramatic the changes can be. The first cycle of eclipses takes place in March and April - on 25 March there will be a lunar eclipse in Libra and on 08 April a solar eclipse in Aries. The second cycle of eclipses takes place in September and October - on 18 September there will be the first lunar eclipse in Pisces, which gives an idea of the changes awaiting in the coming year, and on 02 October there will be a solar eclipse in Libra. Lunar eclipses occur during the Full Moon and are mostly associated with the endings and culminations of certain life stages and letting go of things. Solar eclipses are also accompanied by the end of a stage in life, but so that something new can begin (even if it is initially only an idea).
This year, you will feel the effects of eclipses mainly in the 2nd and 8th houses, which are both your money houses, the first of them the house of your own income and the second related to other people's money. You will experience endings and letting go as well as new beginnings in these areas. You can expect reorganizations and changes regarding your own or your partner's income, or you will divide joint property instead or find a way to share finances with a partner. Topics related to loans, debts, investments, taxes, and inheritances may also come up. The lunar eclipse in Pisces in September brings out the same topics that Saturn has tested you in and will continue to try to teach you. Something needs to be given up once and for all, or it's time to close a door that you've been holding open for too long.
This year, Pluto will move into Aquarius for good (from 21 Jan), dipping back into Capricorn in the autumn (02 Sep - 19 Nov) to tie up some last loose ends, but then it will remain in the sign of Aquarius until 2043. Pluto is the Great Transformer - he pulls you out of your comfort zone, brings out the skeletons that are hidden in your closet, and forces you to face your true nature. Everything that has outlived its time must leave or change so that you can grow and evolve towards your deeper nature and true calling. In order for something new to start, it is often necessary to tear down the old one. Not always, but mostly. If Pluto is in the sign of Scorpio in your birth chart, this transit is particularly important and transformative for you.
Pluto moves into your 12th house, bringing you lessons that encourage you to be yourself. He forces you to face old pain and shame that you would like to forget and sweep under the rug, but Pluto digs it all out so that you can heal yourself. All this is necessary to be able to withstand the next transit of Pluto in your 1st house, which begins in 2043. It is possible that during the transit of Pluto in your 12th house, you will have to deal with your mental health. You can also experience deep inner changes through relationships with people with whom you usually do not get along, who are your opposites or with whom it is difficult for you to find a common language. Pluto-related themes such as control, power dynamics, or manipulation may be mixed into this – possibly making you learn to stand up for yourself more.
Jupiter will move in the sign of Taurus until the end of May, and during this time, a powerful conjunction of Jupiter with Uranus will also take place in mid-April, bringing unexpected good opportunities or changes in your worldview in this area of life that is ruled by the sign of Taurus in your birth chart. Jupiter is called the Great Benefic in astrology. He usually brings luck, good opportunities, and abundance. Especially for those born during the day. However, if you forget your common sense, it can bring setbacks, because Jupiter has a habit of increasing, widening, and expanding everything - therefore there is a greater risk of getting into extremes and exaggerations. According to Estonian time, Jupiter moves into the sign of Gemini on 26 May (according to UT 25 May), expanding a new area in your life.
Jupiter is moving in your 3rd house until the end of May, and you can expect smoother and more fluent communication with others. Communication with siblings, aunts and uncles, and neighbours is especially encouraged. You can hear good and interesting news from them. Unexpected weekend trips may occur or you may simply discover your home area in a new way. Thoughts fly easily and good ideas flow inside from doors and windows, so if you plan to write a book or blog, you should not be short of words.
From the end of May, Jupiter will be transiting your 4th house, bringing abundance and happiness to the home sphere and into family relationships. A good time to buy a new home or renovate an existing home. You enjoy spending time at home and are happy to invite friends and acquaintances to visit. There are good relationships in the family and time favors spending time with the family, travelling with the family or visiting family members.
Mars will go retrograde again at the end of 2024. This time, he will start retrograding in the sign of Leo and moves back into Cancer in early 2025, arising again the issues that were under the focus from the beginning of September until the beginning of November. Mars moves into the sign of Leo at the beginning of November (04 Nov) and goes retrograde on 07 Dec Estonian time (06 Dec UT). The placement of Mars in a house directs your focus and energy to topics and people related to that house. You are more active and busy in these areas and ready to fight and compete, but at the same time it can also bring more impatience, suddenness, irritability, impulsiveness, and even anger. During Mars retrograde, you may be ready for conflicts, obstacles, or setbacks in these areas of life or with the people represented by this house (especially if you were born during the day), but sometimes awareness of such energetic influences will help you control yourself better or take time consciously to calm down.
Mars in Leo is transiting your 6th house, bringing focus to the organization of daily routines, work, or health. A good time to promote health, such as starting a new exercise or nutrition program. If you have otherwise lacked motivation, the activity and energy of Mars will push you to take the reigns into your own hands. When doing sports, however, it is worth noting not to beat yourself up too much, as injuries are easier to happen if you want to achieve too soon, too much (especially during retrograde period). You can spend more time at work because the work doesn't want to end, or a deadline is approaching extremely fast and therefore you also struggle with anxiety. During the retrograde period of Mars, you may easily get into conflicts and arguments with colleagues or subordinates. You may also feel more anxious about your health.
During September and October, pay attention to what is happening in your relationships with children, in your romantic relationships, or in the field of creative activities and hobbies, because in the beginning of 2025, Mars will move back into your 5th house and bring these topics back to the agenda.
