Holm Astrology has been creating "Astrology" and "Food For Thought" posts for over 10 years.  Wix has taken over the Vista Print websites and as a result of the migration of our information, a large portion of our blog posts are currently lost. 

 

We realize our Astrology posts are vital to our students.

We apologize for the inconvenience but it is worth the jump over to our blogspot.

(Part One)

 

Over the next few days, we will review the Sun in Gemini aspects for 2024. Today, we will discuss the transits of Neptune. In future posts, we will also discuss the transit of Saturn, both in Pisces making a square to those with their Sun in Gemini in the late and mid degrees.  We will also discuss the transit of Pluto which will be in Aquarius from September 2 until November 20, 2024, when it goes from Aquarius back to Capricorn and then into Aquarius once again.  Those with their Sun in Gemini in the late degrees will be experiencing the trine between their Sun and Pluto.



Over the next few days, we will review the Sun in Gemini aspects for 2024. Today, we will discuss the transits of Neptune. With Neptune, it can be a troublesome time for clarity regarding your path as it may seem unclear, or you may feel disoriented and confused.
Gemini Forecast Part I 2024

We will begin with those that have their Sun in the late degrees making a square to transiting Neptune.  Much will depend on the houses involved to know what areas of life will become activated.  The square is a challenging aspect which requires action to move through the adversity and learn the lesson at hand.

 

With Neptune, it can be a troublesome time for clarity regarding your path as it may seem unclear, or you may feel disoriented and confused.  You may feel unsure about where life seems to be leading you and how you should be moving forward.  In some cases, it is best to ask for advice from someone you trust or alternatively, it might be better to wait until these energies have passed.  Since Neptune moves at a very slow pace, it may take some time before you feel ready to tackle what has been in place. 

 

Neptune is direct until July 2 when it goes retrograde in the last degree of Pisces.  It remains in its retrograde cycle until December 7 of this year and then returns to its direct motion.  While in the retrograde cycle, it is best to review what path you might want to follow and to wait until it becomes direct once again before taking any type of action beyond the planning stage.  The retrograde cycle is a time of reflection although you may get a clearer picture of to where you might want to move (as in action).  Things are often a little bit clearer during its retrograde cycle.  The energies of a square are challenging to say the least but irritating enough to push us into action to alleviate the circumstances.  These energies push you to move beyond the irritating force that is often brought on by the square aspect.

 

Part II will be posted on May 23 and Part III will be posted on May 27, 2024.

The North Node speaks of the path ahead while the South Node speaks of the past. Transiting nodes square natal nodes indicates an obstruction moving forward likely brought up from the past.

The aspect of Transiting Nodes square the Natal nodes in Astrology creates a Grand Square.  The energies of this formation are not pleasant and can create great strife because a Grand Square is actually four Square aspects all in force at the same time.  These aspects will last approximately four months.  It begins as the Transiting Nodes are approaching the Square at about 3-4° and lasts until they are approximately 2-3° past the exact point.

 

Squares indicate conflict, discord, and suggest that there are hurdles to overcome.  Time seems to move at a much slower pace because of these challenging aspects, and there is certainly a wish that the energies would subside. There are often delays in plans, obstructions and challenges that stand in the way of progress. Much will depend on the areas of life involved, dictated by the natal and transiting positions of the Nodes in the individual’s chart.

 

If there are other indicators in the chart suggesting something similar, then this can be one of the most challenging times that those involved will experience in life. The path ahead seems obstructed and often this is due to something from the past. The experiences of the past or involvement on some level of the past stands in the way of moving ahead. The North Node speaks of the path ahead while the South Node speaks of the past.

 

The Grand Square that is created which will be in either Cardinal, fixed or mutable will determine what kinds of energies are released and determine what action that can be taken.

 

Cardinal modality suggests that action and a push to alleviate these conditions are part of the process.  Fixed modality suggests that there needs to be compromise and a letting go of the fixated determination about what is taking place. The Mutable Square suggests that you might have to go along with the energies in place or on the other hand not to depend on outside influences to determine your course of action.

 

The Grand Square will present obstacles to overcome coming from many different directions all at once; and although this is most certainly a challenging position, the energies of the Square will push you to do what you can to find a resolution to the issues at hand. Square aspects are so irritating that they force us into action, and if we do not push forward with all our might, it is like dropping our gloves and giving up, which is certainly not advised.

 

The whole chart must be reviewed in order to determine how this might be affecting those involved and the natal aspects involving the Nodes will also play a big part in how these energies unfold.  Easy aspects involving the nodes suggest opportunities are at hand while challenging aspects suggest a rather difficult road ahead. These, however, are valuable life lessons and your course of action and what has taken hold over time will provide you with vital information that can be used to formulate a plan of action or be used at any time in the future when needed.

 

Life is not always an easy road but, in many ways, we need to open our hearts and minds to the lessons that are being taught particularly with the grand square created by transiting node square our natal node.  We gain strength and momentum in these times and learn what is needed to advance in life from a more informed and different perspective.

We will focus on Transiting Saturn square the Midheaven.


When Saturn makes a square to our Midheaven, this suggests obstacles connected to our career, our goals, aspirations and our status in life.  Recognition may not come easily, and work can be disrupted or even challenged to such a degree that changes must be made.
Saturn Square Midheaven

Currently (January 2024) Transiting Saturn is in early degrees of Pisces.  If you have your MC (Midheaven) in the Gemini or Sagittarius depending on the degree of your MC, you will be experiencing this square in your birth chart.  Saturn does not move into Aries on a permanent basis until February, 2026, so you will be under this influence at some point during Saturn’s stay in Pisces.

 

Pisces is a gentle, peace-loving sign and thrives on service on some level.  Pisces is spiritual and religious in many cases and is a strong believer in the unseen. It goes with the flow and avoids conflicts of any kind.  It is the dreamer of the Zodiac and many with strong emphasis of this sign in their charts are the visionaries, the mystics, and the escapists of the Zodiac.  The escapist characteristics stem from the want for peace and tranquility. Many with a strong Pisces’ influence can use drugs or alcohol to escape, at least temporarily, from some of the harsher realities of life.  Of course, you will have to review the whole chart to see if this holds true.

 

Saturn on the other hand has to do with reality and security and the stabilization of activities often related to securing structure that has a lasting potential.  Saturn is also associated with challenges, stumbling blocks, tedious obligations to get the job done and reliability.  Saturn often indicates hard work and discipline and is known as the teacher of the Zodiac. Saturn pushes us to move out of complacency and urges us to stand strong again the pressures of life.

 

When Saturn makes the challenging square aspect to our Midheaven, this often suggests that there are obstacles in the way.  Hard work is indicated, and setbacks are often part of the picture.  This can lead to concern and worry about where life is taking us, especially connected to our career, our goals, aspirations and our status in life.  Recognition may not come easily, and work can be disrupted or even challenged to such a degree that changes must be made.  There are no shortcuts, and you will not find the road easy.

 

If, however, you decide to challenge the situation and work towards building a solid foundation that appears to be falling apart, the rewards for hard work and diligence can be great.  Saturn insists that you work for a result even if you can’t see the end game in the near future.  Sturdiness and stability are often built into what you have committed yourself to accomplish.  You will learn patience, perseverance and gain inner strength even if you fall short of your endeavors as long as you keep working towards an end result.

 

It likely will not be an easy road and much will depend on the natal potential and how Saturn is aspected along with the other transiting aspects.  Stay the course and work your way through adversity and remain true to your ambitions.  Do not get caught up in any negativity that might befall you and stay strong and focused.
