Since you are known to be the most enthusiastic sign of the zodiac, it is no wonder you are asking, “How will 2024 go for Aries—will I be happy? Prosperous? Successful? Popular?”
Dear Aries, the answers to all of these questions are yes, yes, yes—and yes, absolutely. The Aries horoscope 2024 reports that this whole year should be an exciting one and bring your relationships to a fuller, more developed point.
You have worked hard to achieve a better life, and in many ways, this will be the year when all that effort pays off.
The great success you are about to achieve in 2024 will change the way you view yourself forever.
Stronger self-confidence seems to be the very first bonus you receive. Soon you will have positive proof that the future will be different, a true break from all that you’ve wanted to discard.
But this won’t be a matter of leaving what you don’t like—you are rapidly shaping a life that you love.
You had Jupiter in your sign for the first time in 12 years in 2019, so last year should have been a very good year for you on many levels.
Sometimes, when you have a year as important as the one you have just finished, it is easy to miss its true importance. Many of your most promising relationships, projects and dreams will come through for you now.
As you progress through 2024 you will see in hindsight that your time was well spent. There are seedlings of success growing in your garden in not one, but many areas. This blossoming could surprise you—it will certainly thrill you.
As 2024 dawns you have six weeks to continue to utilize the good fortune of Jupiter, as it will remain in Aries until February 14.
Keep a diary of whom you meet and the projects you start, for later it will be interesting to see your progress.
Because astrology is the study of cycles, it is very important to take your boldest actions in time with the key planetary energy cycles.
Therefore, think about your dreams, choose the one that holds the most potential, and take a bold step to make it happen prior to mid-February.
Aries who were born late in the sign (April 15-19) have the edge at this time, and may someday report that they were totally transformed by the events of 2024 in a positive way.
Many people discover their true soul mate during such a Jupiter. So if you didn’t meet The One in 2019, you still have some luck on your side through Valentine’s Day.
Don’t stay late at the office during the start of the year—circulate! If you met someone in 2019 or at the start of 2024, but aren’t sure if this person will become more important to you, chances are, he or she will—more so than you may think.
We will talk about love later, but here’s why there are so many chances you’ll have a good relationship in 2024: You have changed a great deal from the person you were prior to 2016, when Saturn entered Aries.
Saturn left in April 2019 and Jupiter came in to add its measure of optimism. Now you are ready, willing and able to enter a committed relationship, so its not surprising that one is about to show up.
If you are already attached, you will both decide to take it to a deeper level of intimacy. As a result, the relationship will become stronger and more fun.
You are now asking more from life—and that’s good, because now life complies.
Money
From mid-February until June, Jupiter will move into Taurus and take up residence your 2nd sector of income.
You will find your earning potential is better than anything you’ve experienced in years. Suddenly your life experience and education add up to something big, and the marketplace takes notice.
While you saw the signs that things were looking up from July through October 2019, the window of opportunity was narrow.
It was over before you could get your initiative off the ground. The difference is that now you’re ready, willing and able.
This is especially good news, because the taskmaster planet Saturn has been in your 2nd sector of income since March 2019.
Saturn has made your income run hot and cold. The extremes may have been pretty obvious and unnerving.
Some of that vacillation will persist, but luckily you are entering one of your “up” cycles. Your golden financial period will fade in July 1, 2024 so you will have to focus and act quickly to take full advantage of your good vibes.
You have had Saturn in this earned income sector for nearly a year, so you are getting used to Saturn’s constraints.
Yet the benefits are obvious from this “cosmic MBA” course that Saturn is putting you through; it has taught you to budget carefully and to spend wisely.
Saturn has probably taught you to save for a rainy day too, and for many hot-to-trot Aries, this may be the first time you’ve ever had a fat bank account.
If you haven’t yet amassed a nest egg, you still have time, because Saturn won’t leave for good until April 20, 2001.
Some Aries found financial independence during recent months. Aries college students may have won some independence by having their own apartment for the first time, or newly divorced Aries may have moved into their own pad after years of sharing a home and plenty of responsibilities with someone else.
Other Aries started a business, bought a house, a piece of land or else discovered a way to fund an expensive dream, such as paying for college or the care of an elderly parent. You are showing that you are on the move up the totem pole of maturity, in the life process that never ends.
These were the years you were supposed to learn to handle complex domestic and financial responsibilities, for Saturn brings maturity on a sophisticated level in whatever sector it tours.
By April 2024 you will be ready to “graduate” from this course and the lessons you learn now will stay with you forever.
Your next tour of Saturn in this sector isn’t due for another 29 years, and when it comes round again it will be infinitely easier.
An enormously important cosmic event will occur during the opening week of May 2024, which will change everything for you. You will probably be working on a major financial deal at that time and the results will be superb.
As you will have seven out of ten planets touring in that sector of the 2020 horoscope, there won’t be any way you can avoid being involved in a money deal.
Because Uranus and Neptune will be at harsh angle to one another, it will be important to keep your eyes open and your nerves steeled for anything, but you can emerge victorious if you play your cards right. This sector does not rule financial windfalls but rather money that is earned.
It also doesn’t cover money you share with a spouse, business partner or even the tax collector. This is all about YOUR money; how you earn it, spend it and save it.
This same sector of the horoscope is also seen as the home of self-confidence, so as it will be holding seven out of ten planets, your self-assurance and poise should reach an all-time high!
Suddenly you are feeling practical, secure, steady and dedicated to your goals. You are developing an attractive patina of sophistication, Aries.
Gone are the days when you rush a project or spend carelessly. VIPs, friends and family can’t help but be impressed with your new “can do” attitude.
You are on your way to the top, and if influential people around you are worth their salt, the smart money is on you. You won’t let them down.
From 2016 through early 2019 you attended the “school of hard knocks”. But, like a baby who has bumped his head a few times in his haste to explore the world, you know where the dangers lie and can finally avoid or prepare for them.
This is a new side to you, but these lessons have been so hard won that you aren’t likely to forget them.
When Jupiter enters Gemini on July 1, your talent for communication will be prized. You will learn to write, speak and negotiate sophisticated contracts and agreements.
You will be able to review a lease or a health insurance contract and spot problematic clauses with ease.
This newfound ability will help you in every area of your life, from your relationships with your lover, spouse, children and family members to demonstrating your leadership talent at work. You may be given an opportunity to write, and you may even see your byline published.
If you are a writer with an established career, your work should only get better in the latter part of 2024.
The fields of public relations, sales, marketing, publishing, telecommunications, computers and travel are also going to be fantastically good fields for Aries.
When Jupiter moves into Gemini it will form a “sextile” aspect. You will feel at home with this placement, for it is read as opportunity in your chart.
You may travel more than usual in the second half of the year, buy a car or get your first driver’s license (even if you are older).
You may buy a new computer and become very skilled at using some new software. You could be asked to teach other people, either in a classroom setting or training other employees in your company.
Your ruler Mars will be in especially robust form this year—it has no periods of retrograde (backward) motion in 2024.
This means you will have the energy to push forward on many fronts. In 2019 Mars was stuck in Scorpio for nine months and moved back and forth over a fairly narrow part of the sky during much of that time.
Although it was a good year for many Aries, 2019 probably did not give you as much variety. In contrast, the year 2024 will provide you with plenty of action and stimulation.
The fact that Mars is your ruler is very significant. The particular path Mars will take over the course of the next 12 months suggests that your private life will predominate in the year 2024, not your career.
Mars will urge you to explore your options for a much more satisfying private life, from finding ways to protect and grow your finances, to making time to travel.
You also want a better home life, a nicer apartment or house, and July is your key month to move. If you are single and unattached, you will devote more time to find a more satisfying love life.
Thus, the year 2024 is a year when you put your private life in order. In order to do this you may let your career slide a little bit at times.
That is not to say you won’t have your sparkling career moments—you will, especially in January and July—but it seems that you are more interested in feathering your nest, finding true love, polishing up your communication skills, investigating hobbies and outside interests, and perhaps even starting a family or spending more time with children you already have.
You are determined to improve your quality of life and be a more rounded person. This year you find that those goals are well within reach.
Friends will continue to be a big source of inspiration for you. With Uranus, (planet of genius) and Neptune (planet of inspiration) touring your 11th sector of groups and friendship, this is an area of enormous stimulation and even surprise.
Your friends will be quite creative and funny, and they will blow a breath of fresh air into your life. Both of these “big deal” planets are in Aquarius, a sign that blends particularly well with yours, so the new people in your life are highly compatible with your personality and capable of bringing you new insights and encouraging you to investigate new things.
Joining clubs is a great thing to do under these aspects. When you do sign up with one, you would do well to get active in club events this year because you will receive great benefits if you do.
Aries who were born on April 3-6 will benefit most from Uranus, planet of creativity and experimentation, which is based in this sector. Aries with birthdays on March 23-26 will glean much from Neptune’s beneficial, encouraging and artistic vibrations. This year could be especially romantic, magical or inspirational in some way.
This same 11th sector rules altruistic efforts, so if you choose to work on a charity effort, it will work out quite well.
You will pick up certain useful leadership skills that you weren’t quite expecting in the process, and you can transfer them to your job later on. So you will benefit from charity work in the long run, but you don’t start out with that goal in mind—it is a sweet side benefit.
Eclipses are astrological wild cards which can change our paths unexpectedly, and this year there are six in all—more than usual.
Love
The first two occur early in the year, on January 21 and February 5, in your sector of love and friendship, suggesting changes in status. For some that eclipse will spell upheaval, but not for all.
The January 21 eclipse is trying to clarify your feelings. Love looks quite positive for you, and if this eclipse does prove that you are in love, choosing to be with this person will influence the direction of your life for at least the next decade.
This whole year has a certain all-or-nothing quality to it.
You want to move into the new millennium with clean, direct purpose and energy. You won’t be sitting on the fence any longer. Now is the time to put your cards on the table. The eclipse on February 5 has more to do with friendship and groups, but it will bring a few surprises as well.
July is an even bigger month for eclipses. With no fewer than three eclipses in one month (some sort of record!), it seems fairly certain you will leave July in better shape than when you started.
You should be refining your home life near July 1, but at the eclipse on July 16 (the biggest eclipse of 2024) you may also change jobs, see a huge shift in top management or get a new job description.
With so much happening on “the angles” of your chart in July, many Aries will be on the move, starting fresh in a whole new career. This new career may include a dramatic relocation to a new city.
On the eclipse of July 31, issues of love, relationships, marriage and children are addressed once again.
The final eclipse of the year occurs in Capricorn on Christmas Day 2024, indicating a time for more professional adjustments.
If the career moves that you made in July need a little tweaking, you’ll find a way to get things wrapped up at year’s end.
Keep in mind that eclipses are just as likely to be harbingers of good luck as anything they are of anything else, so be optimistic that you will land sunny side up.
Conclusions
The year 2024 is filled with aspects that will help you make significant, lasting changes in your life—not just cosmetic ones.
Sometimes in life we make little adjustments and convince ourselves that they are all we need to do—but they’re not. At other times we make big changes but don’t even realize the depth of their importance, or that we’ve changed the course of our lives.
This is one of those years, Aries. April, May and July are your key months to see change in your life, but you will start to search for options as early as February.
You will follow up on opportunities not out of boredom or guilt, but because you are truly fired up about your plans. That, dear Aries, is why you are bound to succeed.
