Major Astrology Transits for 2024
A Saturn Ruled 8 Year
In numerology, 2024 is an 8 year (2+0+2+4), which means it will introduce us to the 8’s themes of power, authority, and financial success.
It is considered largely a year of creation, where hard work pays off, and our ambitions can be rewarded, if we are willing to put in the work.
And the work is sure to be dirty and challenging, diving deep into our fears and insecurities as the only way through.
The number 8 symbolizes infinity, encouraging us to find a healthy balance between the material and spiritual worlds. Our ambitions may be in both realms, but we’ll need to find a happy medium in order to make any real progress.
In other words, this is not a year for escaping into spiritual bliss while the world crumbles, or for abandoning your practices in a nihilistic fit. The path asks that we walk with grace and awareness.
During an 8 year we are also called to learn the best ways to express our personal power and find the courage to take some responsibility for our lives. This means we’ll be focusing heavily on achieving the goals we create for ourselves with the faith that they will have the lasting impacts we need.
2024 Major Transits Breakdown
This year's themes interweave to tell a story of transformation, balance, and creation.
Saturn and Pluto, Father Time and Father Judgement, will be forceful, pushing us through serious and sometimes painful changes. There will be a focus on getting real about how much has already changed, transitioned, or fallen away and creating a new world to support our evolution.
Eclipses in Aries and Libra will make us focus on our personal growth and relationship dynamics, asking us to balance our needs, desires, and wants with what others may expect of us. This will be especially potent when it comes to the ways we rely on someone, be it politicians, family members, or business partners.
Full of expansive energy, the conjunction of Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus will shock us into a revolutionary spirit when it comes to what we value and how we use our resources. Hello liberation! And later in the Spring, the gas giant’s move into Gemini brightens the landscape with curiosity, adaptability, and ignites us into action for an impactful fall.
Pluto in Aquarius: The Transformation of Culture and Tech
Pluto's transit into Aquarius, is perhaps the most anticipated transit of 2024, and it will happen early in the year, giving us a window into the next few decades.
In mythology, Pluto is the God of the underworld, representing death, rebirth, and deep soul transformation. Aquarius, symbolized by the water bearer, brings us lessons in innovation and how to be a good Human. This transit suggests a time of significant societal change, most likely through technological advancements or revolutionary shifts in how communities are structured and lead.
The impact is going to be long-lasting, reshaping what we accept as “normal” towards more Aquarian ideals like equality for all beings human and non-human, freedom, and living for the collective good.
Pay attention to this transit and its aspects early in January and Feburary as it will give us a great idea of how to move forward into a totally new way of being.

Eclipses in Aries and Libra: Catalysts for Relationship Change
Eclipses are disruptive to the normal flow of energy, marking turning points or revelations in our journey.
Until 2026, the focus will be on the self (Aries) and relationships (Libra). Aries, ruled by Mars, embodies the warrior spirit, blazing into the unknown without a second thought, while Libra, ruled by Venus, reminds us of the importance of just and fair partnership that commits us to the other.
Eclipses in these signs, especially since they’re visible over the US during an election year, suggest unexpected developments in leadership and diplomacy, leading to disruption or major changes in global politics.
These events will encourage us to grow through conflict and negotiation, urging a balance between individual needs and harmony for the greater good.

Saturn in Pisces: Bringing Form to our Dreams
Saturn's journey through Pisces has introduced us to a period of serious reflection on our collective dreams, illusions, religion, celebrity culture, and the entertainment industry.
This has to do with the boundaries we’ve created between reality and fantasy. Saturn, wants us to think about structure, how we practice personal discipline, and to learn lessons about limitations. Pisces is much the opposite, as the sign of imagination, compassion, and escapism.
In many ways these lines have begun to blur in our world of make believe, and this year much of the smoke will clear to make these lines visible again.
This transit also reaches its peak this year, asking us to get serious about a realistic approach to the other dimensions of reality we express through our art and soul connections, leading to huge changes in creative industries, spirituality, and healing professions.

Jupiter in Gemini: Intellectual Growth and Social Connectivity
As Jupiter moves into Gemini, we begin to focus together, especially in our local networks and communities, on knowledge, communication, and connectivity. Social media and the internet have become global phenomenons, connecting us to people all over the world, but with Jupiter in Gemini we will remember that this tech was invented to help us be more efficient and live better. That starts in our local communities with things like public transport and networks of care and learning.
Gemini is ruled by Mercury, and thrives on information exchange, learning, and social interaction. Jupiter's influence here magnifies all of this, promising a period of intellectual growth, more sustainable travel, and the proliferation of ideas through media and technology.
This transit encourages a more connected, informed, and versatile society, but may also see us have to confront how overly engrossed with our tech and social media we have become.
In essence, this year is about bridging the gap between vision and reality, using the transformative energies available to make our dreams into tangible realities. It's a year for break throughs, both personally and collectively, with the potential to redefine our values, relationships, and societal structures.
