This is a year for major endings and beginnings, with a 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion ending on 26th May and another beginning when the planet of luck and expansion returns to Gemini. Jupiter returned to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart in May 2023, bringing you to the final year of this current 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion and with it, a chance to close old doors and to focus on completion. This became an even deeper review when Jupiter turned retrograde in August 2023 and as he only turned direct on New Year's Eve, as you move into the New Year you are just starting to look to the future. However, events in January hold clues to what kind of future that is destined to be, when Pluto returns to your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery on 21st January.

Along with the Sun, who will return on the same day this will put the focus on the adventurous side of life's fence. While the Sun is only here for a month, apart from the 11 weeks when he will retrograde back into your financial sector from 2nd September to 20th November, Pluto is here now until 2044. Helping to get this off the ground will be Mars, who will return for the first time in two years to fuel a passion for adventure and a hunger for life's richer experiences from 13th February to 23rd March and Venus, who will return to fuel a desire for adventure from 17th February to 12th March. When they leave Pluto will be on his own but as the planet of change and revolution, this has planted seeds that will continue to take root and sprout.

Why this is significant is that when Jupiter returns to Gemini on 26th May, he will move straight into a friendly aspect to Pluto and until leaving in June 2025, apart from the 11 weeks when he retrogrades back out, they will be working in harmony. This will also put both in harmony with the South Node, which will spend the whole of 2024 in a playful and creative part of your chart. As you move into both a new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion on 26th May and into your birthday month and new solar year on 21st May, the strongest support will be coming from the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence. Yet balancing this out will be Saturn and Neptune, who are keeping a steady hand on the wheel of this professional year and especially on the career front. This will have a positive impact during the most lucrative months of the year, which will run from 17th June to 22nd July and then from 5th September to 4th November. The second will overlap the most active months of the year on the job front, which will run from 23rd September to 22nd November.
