Aquarius
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 2nd house, which is related to your earning and finances. During this period, money comes in with difficulty, especially if you have not been saving before. However, if you have accumulated savings for a long time, now you can find an opportunity to invest them profitably. This is the time to calmly think about what you really want to do (in terms of earning income) and plan long-term projects and undertakings. You should definitely not expect quick and easy income and get-rich-quick during this period.
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 3rd and 9th houses. You will experience endings and letting go as well as new beginnings in these areas. It is possible that some life events will make you reevaluate your previous beliefs and worldviews. You may also experience new beginnings or the end of a certain phase of life in communication with siblings or other close relatives or neighbours. Since both houses are related to travel, you can expect changes in this area as well - this can mean both a greater (or instead less) desire to travel and a thirst for knowledge. 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 1st house, which is related to your identity and appearance and how you present yourself to the world. Pluto's transit in the 1st house could be compared to doing a repair, where you have to remove the old paint from the wall before you can apply the new one. In a similar way, Pluto also changes your nature - it removes all fake layers and masks to reveal your true essence. Pluto teaches and encourages you to be yourself in your authenticity. The long transit of Pluto can mean a somewhat unstable period, but this is all necessary for you to feel the need to let go of your old way of life and dare to develop towards your best self. You may also experience tragedies and pain during this period, but in order to discover your inner strength that you were not aware of. If you feel stuck in a place, Pluto forces you to step out of your comfort zone and face your fears in order to tear down all the walls that are holding you back.
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.
Until the end of May, Jupiter is transiting your 4th house, bringing abundance and happiness to the home and 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.
Jupiter moves into your 5th house at the end of May - so use this time to enjoy the activities you love. Do your hobbies and spend time with your family. If you have children, your relationship with them will be positively charged, and this is a great time for various joint fun activities and events. You can expect a fresh burst of inspiration in creative activities. As a single person, you will enjoy attention in the romantic sphere and may meet a new suitable candidate for a romantic relationship. However, there can be a danger in confusing lust with love. If you are already in a relationship, you can expect more vibrancy, spice and passion in the relationship during this period.
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 7th house, bringing attention to all kinds of partnerships. You may be prone to flirting or enjoy a burst of passion in an existing relationship. During the retrograde period of Mars, there is a greater risk of arguments and conflicts with a partner (be it a romantic or business partner). In fact, you could say that this danger is present the whole time Mars is moving in your 7th house. You tend to get irritated more easily and can turn a mosquito into an elephant. Or it seems to you that for some reason everyone wants to pick a fight with you. You are ready to stand up for yourself, but consider the consequences, because settling disputes will not be easy during this period. You may even feel the need to cut the existing ties and move forward with life in a new direction (this danger can be more likely to hit people born during the day). However, if you have wanted to change something in the field of relationships, now is the time to take decisive action.
During September and October, pay attention to what is happening in the field of your work, health and habits, because at the beginning of 2025, Mars will move back into your 6th house and bring these topics back to the agenda.
