January 2024
A New Astrological Age Begins
2024 is the year when we move into an age of air. This is the year that Pluto, having dipped in and out of Capricorn, moves into air sign Aquarius for the next twenty years. In the two decades to come, new ideas and innovations change our world like we have never seen before since 1777-1798. Those ideas and new technologies propel us forward. Social media will shift and change becoming more responsible. Human rights become the rights of all just and not just the rights of kings and oligarchs. Activism becomes more common. Solutions to technologies that are threatening our well being are initiated. Everyone will have access to the information. Leaders give way to new leaders and alliances and power centers are shifting.
It is not just Pluto. Jupiter moves into air sign Gemini May 25. Jupiter is trine Pluto during May and June. This is a powerful and positive transit that inspires us to come together to fix the structures of our societies that do not work for the people as a whole.
Uranus dips dips into Gemini in 2025, and moves into Gemini April 2026 to May 2033. Air is now.
Pluto
Pluto is death and rebirth. Pluto moved into Capricorn in 2008. This brought a breakdown of systems and structures of societies that no longer work. We no longer have to deal with gatekeepers that determine if we can publish a book or produce a song, or get our name and brand across the world. Changes in society have brought a backlash from those who are not happy with losing their power and entitlements. Many people are waging a battle to keep power over what we can do in our personal lives and with our bodies. The need for a changing of the guard has become evident, as many leaders and decision makers are aging and dying. Others continue to hang on with outdated ideas and philosophies. In summary, while Pluto has been in Capricorn we have become aware that power over our lives has come from the top tier of money-makers and leaders who serve the interests of the few and not the masses. We have been stuck in what is outdated and have been thwarted by the status quo.
Once Pluto is firmly in Aquarius November 19,2024 power emerges from the masses. Leaders around the world will have to answer to the wishes of the individuals who make up the population. There has been so much speculation as to what will happen with Pluto in Aquarius, including the dollar losing status as the world currency to the emergence of crypto currency as the new means of exchange. Typical of the independence of Aquarius, crypto currency is independent of government control giving more power to we the people. AI has also been considered as the new trend as well as innovations in health care. Decentralization is a key concept in the coming years. One group can no longer hold the reins of life on this planet.
The last time Pluto moved through Aquarius, the French Revolution took place and the American Revolutionary War was won. In both cases, the people took over the establishment.
Additionally, the dollar became the currency of the US and the Supreme Court was established. Some would argue that both are ready for change.
Before Pluto is firmly planted in Aquarius, it moves into Aquarius January 20 and then backs out September 3. Between these days we experence a preview as to what to expect over the next twenty years.
The times outside of January 20 to September 3 contain big decisions, turning points and endings as Pluto hovers at the final degree of Capricorn.
This is not a warning. Depending on a reader’s age, you have experienced Pluto changing signs more than once since your life began. This astrologer has experienced Pluto change signs five times. We will still be here, but get ready for some amazing events in years ahead. Just imagine the changes and innovation someone born in 1900 experienced before dying sometime in the later twentieth century; wars, atomic energy, air travel, and a man landing on the Moon.
Pluto in Aquarius is easy for Libra and Gemini while Taurus, Leo, and Scorpio may feel dragged into their future kicking and screaming. People of all signs will be better for this transit over the years. You can go with it or make it harder by digging in your heels. Remember, Pluto is death and rebirth.
Pluto This Month
The Sun crosses Pluto in Capricorn January 20 and then both move into Aquarius on the same day. Between now and then powerful endings and beginnings occurs for some of us, but especially for Capricorn and Aquarius.
Days that the Moon affects Pluto show us what we need to change include January 5, 11,18, and 25. While these are days for starting new ways and situations, it is because we are compelled by challenging people.
Algol
Algol is a three star system that moves one degree every seventy-two years. In Arabic Algol means the demon’s head or ghoul. It is symbolic of the head of Medusa.
It represents rape, murder, decapitation and just about every other ghoulish behavior.
I mention this because it currently resides at twenty-six degrees Taurus. Uranus in Taurus begins to cross Algol May 20 and is not finished doing so until June 27, 2025. The last time Uranus was at this position May 1940 to April 1942. These dates for now and in the past include the three degrees before and after the exact conjunctions.
Expect intense times for many of the citizens of Earth. Some of us will be fine. Others, including big names in the news, fall from the grace they once enjoyed. There will be civil disruption.
Between March 19 and 13 Mars in Aquarius is harshly aspected to Algol and again in mid July when Mars is in Taurus. In May, Jupiter is crossing Algol exacerbating this mean star. Words and actions are decisive as we see the truth in peoples' motives.
