We're in the thick of 2024, friends, and, according to your yearly horoscope, it's hopefully been the year of possibilities. For starters, there are several significant transits to pay attention to this year, the first being Pluto, the planet of transformation and rebirth, which entered into innovative Aquarius Jan. 20 and stays through Sept. 1, 2024, and again Nov. 19 through March 8, 2043. Pluto in Aquarius can bring significant societal changes, so you may see a rise in activism and social movements that seek to promote equality and fairness this year.

While growth is a major theme this year, 2024 is about taking action. If you want change, you will have to be the one to initiate it. This "all or nothing" attitude can be attributed to the North Node of Destiny and Chiron, the asteroid of healing, teamed up in assertive, self-determined Aries all year.

Changes in relationships and self-image won't be the only upgrades you experience this year; your finances and self-esteem could receive a cosmic makeover, too, especially during the notorious Jupiter and Uranus conjunction in Taurus on April 20.

Keep your confidence levels high as Jupiter starts a new 12-month journey through Gemini on May 25. During this curious and intellectual transit, you may desire to learn new things, make new friends, and share your ideas in new ways with the world.

With Mercury, the planet of communication and transportation, and Mars, the planet of willpower and action, both stationing retrograde in fire signs this year, it's safe to say that your creativity and passion for life will be under review all 2024. What lights your fire? What brings you joy? Use these retrograde transits to consider what hobbies or recreational activities you want to explore just for fun.

As for the rest of 2024? Keep reading to learn more about your yearly horoscope for 2024. Read your horoscope first according to your rising sign, then according to your sun sign.

Aries Horoscope 2024 (March 21-April 19)

Your relationship with yourself and others is the dominating theme for you throughout 2024, dear Aries, so be prepared to make new friends and bid farewell to those who no longer match your vibe. Your Aries yearly horoscope for 2024 may be bringing that transitions seem gloomy, but there's much to look forward to the rest of this year. For starters, Pluto, the planet of transformation and death, began its final preview in Aquarius and your electric 11th house of friendships and community from Jan. 20 through Sept. 1, 2024, making the first half of the year an excellent time to get outside your comfort zone and network with a new crowd.

You also likely received a boost of cosmic confidence during the North Node and Chiron conjunction in your sign on Feb. 19. What parts of yourself did you have tucked away? This healing aspect empowers you to make peace with past decisions this year so you can stop criticizing and hindering your growth, especially with the lunar eclipse in Libra spotlighting your relationship sector this year.

While you may think you have a solid idea of who you are and what you want this year, you may find your thoughts and beliefs are under review now that Mercury stationed retrograde in your sign on April 1. This can be a time of frustration, but it can also be an opportunity to reflect on how you present yourself to the world and make adjustments that will serve you better. It's all about your perspective, so keep your thoughts honest and productive this year. You may even be attracting a new romantic or professional partner during the Libra solar eclipse on Oct. 2.

Taurus Horoscope 2024 (April 20-May 20)

If 2023 was a year of self-discovery and self-reflection for you, Taurus, your yearly horoscope for 2024 answers some of those lingering questions. While there is still a lot of healing and spiritual work to be done this year, thanks to Chiron and the North Node in Aries hanging out in your 12th house of completion and closure all year, your Taurus yearly horoscope for 2024 predicts the changes you've been making behind the scenes will slowly start to come into fruition. This is because Jupiter, the planet of luck and prosperity, and Uranus, the planet of unpredictability, joined forces in your sign on April 20, manifesting your desires physically. Celebrate the small wins!

If financial fluctuations have been a cause for concern, you'll have an opportunity to prioritize your income and expenses more diligently once Jupiter kicks off a new transit in Gemini and your second house of personal possessions on May 25. This is an excellent time to meet with an advisor, explore new ways of making money, or begin investing in your financial future. However, avoid making major decisions or signing contracts related to your home or creative projects once Mercury stations retrograde in Virgo on Aug. 5 and Leo on Aug. 14, as miscommunications can lead to costly mistakes.

Personal goals may keep you tied up this year, but that doesn't mean you have to neglect your private life. If your social life and intimate relationships fall behind toward the end of the year, use the Mars retrograde in Leo transit that begins on Dec. 6 to reprioritize your emotional life. While it may help your bank account to run in multiple directions constantly, pay close attention to how your habits may be wreaking havoc on your health and home life. Scale back if you need it to. Don't try to do everything at once this year.

Gemini Horoscope 2024 (May 21-June 21)

Get ready for a fresh start, Gemini. Your Gemini yearly horoscope for 2024 marks a brand new beginning for you, both personally and professionally. But unlike other zodiac signs, you started the year off on a more laid-back note, as your planetary ruler, Mercury, ended its annual winter retrograde in your seventh house of partnerships on Jan. 1. Still feeling sluggish? Rather than racing to start something new, use the rest of the year to reflect on the spiritual lessons and intimate connections you established during 2023. You'll have plenty of time to pursue your creative dreams once Jupiter enters your sign for the first time in a decade on May 25.

While some Gems will use Jupiter's good luck charms to improve their appearance or prioritize their personal growth, this is also an excellent time to enhance your writing, public speaking, or teaching skills, as others are more intrigued by your unique point of view. Keep your eye open for collaboration opportunities around July 9, when Jupiter and the North Node align in your community sector. Just keep in mind that Saturn, the planet of responsibility and limitation, will station retrograde in Pisces and your 10th house of career from June 29 - Nov. 15, 2024, so you may need to give yourself extra time to work on projects.

You may feel a strong urge to reassess your career path and make changes that align more closely with your values and purpose around the Sept. 17 Pisces lunar eclipse. This supercharged full moon (also called the harvest moon) may bring up a desire to pursue a new career path that is more fulfilling and aligned with your passions and strengths. You may feel a strong urge to take risks and make bold moves regarding your long-term goals, such as starting your own business or studying a new craft. As the year wraps, be mindful of your communication skills. Are you showing up with confidence, or are you dimming your light, Gem?

Cancer Horoscope 2024 (June 22-July 22)

Your yearly horoscope promises career advancements and improvements on the home front, sweet Cancer. Your Cancer yearly horoscope for 2024 is giving you the best of both worlds! For starters, the Aries solar eclipse illuminated your 10th house of long-term goals and commitments on April 8. This supercharged new moon was excellent for receiving increased visibility for your work, which hopefully led to opportunities for public speaking, media appearances, or other forms of professional exposure. A few weeks later, Jupiter, the planet of gratitude and fortune, aligned with spontaneous Uranus in your 11th house of collaboration and community on April 20. This rare astrological event could lead to a promotion or leadership opportunity if you're open to it.

However, expect a significant energy shift around May 25 when joyful Jupiter slips into Gemini and your secluded 12th house of self-healing and solitude until June 9, 2025. This transit can bring a period of spiritual growth and development, with a focus on inner exploration and self-discovery. You may strongly desire to explore your inner self, connect with your spirituality, and engage in social activities behind the scenes. Some Crabs may secure a new property or renovate their home to be more host-friendly during the Libra solar eclipse on Oct. 2.

This year, another major transit happening for you is Pluto's entrance into Aquarius and your eighth house of intimacy and shared resources on Nov. 19. Pluto will transit this area of your chart until 2043, and this could bring about positive changes in how you express your sexuality and establish financial independence. Mars will also station retrograde in Leo and your second house of income on Dec. 6 until Jan. 6, 2025. This retrograde transit may raise unresolved issues related to your financial security, personal values, or sense of self-worth. You may benefit from re-evaluating your financial habits and exploring new ways to increase your income. Take it one day at a time. Sustainability is not built overnight.

Leo Horoscope 2024 (July 23-Aug. 22)

Get ready for your rebirth, Leo. Your Leo yearly horoscope for 2024 is here to shift you into a higher level of visibility, respect, and responsibility. Thanks to a healing alignment between the North Node of Destiny and Chiron in your ninth house of expansion and growth on Feb. 19, you had the vision and the capacity to make it to the finish line! While your goals this year may be simply executing your plans, your work may have landed you a prestigious award on April 20, when joyful Jupiter and spontaneous Uranus aligned in your 10th house of career and professional development. These two power-players will be teamed up in this area of your chart until May 25, so take advantage!

While some Lions will use Jupiter's move into Gemini to scale their team or join a new social club from May 25 until June 9, 2025, this is also an excellent time to present or pitch a new product or presentation. During this 12-month cycle, you may attend more networking events and meet new people who can help you grow your business or introduce you to potential investors or partners. Either way, a favorable alignment between Jupiter and the North Node on July 9 reminds you to confidently go after what you want!

If you experience a few slowdowns in August, don't panic. Mercury will retrograde in Virgo and your second house of finances from Aug. 5 through 14 and then backspin through your sign and the first house of identity and personal goals from Aug. 14 - 28. Use this downtime to pay extra attention to how you present yourself to others. You may receive an opportunity to secure an important contract or deal in November once Pluto enters Aquarius, and your seventh house of partnerships on Nov. 19, and the Retrogrades in August can help prepare you. However, keep in mind that motivator Mars will station retrograde in your sign from Dec. 6 until Jan.6, 2025, and this may impact how you feel about yourself. Be kind to yourself as you work through this period of introspection and growth. Trust the process.

Virgo Horoscope 2024 (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

While you are known to be a planner, Virgo, your inner critic can sometimes get in your way. Luckily, your Virgo yearly horoscope for 2024 encourages you to release overthinking and instead live with intention. A major cause for this is Pluto's re-entry into future-focused Aquarius and your service-oriented sixth house of work and organization on Nov. 19. During this money-focused transit, you may become more interested in unconventional forms of work or may experience a profound change in your career path.

If you've hit a rough patch with a business or romantic partner, you'll have a chance to sort through your differences once Saturn, the planet of responsibility and emotional maturity, stations retrograde in Pisces and your seventh house of partnerships from June 29 to Nov. 15. During this transit, it's best to develop healthier boundaries and communication skills instead of feeding into the drama. However, Mars, the planet of action and willpower, will retrograde through Leo and your 12th house of solitude from Dec. 6 until Jan. 6, 2025. End the year on a quiet note.

Libra Horoscope 2024 (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Break out of your shell this year, sweet Libra. After almost two years of deep healing and introspection, your Libra yearly horoscope for 2024 invites you to fully embrace the unknown. While that can initially sound intimidating, trust that you have all the resources and support you need to pivot in a new direction. With the South Node of past lessons transiting your sign all year, this is your time to release what is no longer serving you, and this requires you to believe in yourself fully. Luckily, a healing alignment between the North Node and Chiron in Aries on Feb. 19 hopefully brought a peaceful resolution to tense relationships and contract negotiations.

An opportunity to celebrate your personal growth arrived during the lunar eclipse in Libra on March 25 and will come again Oct. 2. What have you learned about yourself since March 25? While self-reflection consumes most of your time during the first half of the year, make time for travel, creativity, and learning once Jupiter jumps into Gemini and your nifty ninth house of exploration from May 25 until June 9, 2025. Keep an open mind and be willing to challenge your existing assumptions, and you may find that the universe rewards your efforts with greater wisdom and insight.

Take care of your health and get enough rest and exercise once Saturn stations retrograde in sensitive Pisces and your sixth house of wellness and daily routines from June 19 to Nov. 15. It may be helpful to create a schedule and stick to it as much as possible. Be bold and ask for help or delegate tasks if necessary. If not, you may run into severe burnout during the Pisces lunar eclipse on Sept. 17. To end the year on a bang, Mars will station retrograde in Leo and your 11th house of community from Dec. 6 until Jan. 6, 2025. Use this transit to explore new interests or hobbies that can help you connect with like-minded people. It's all about who you know!

Scorpio Horoscope 2024 (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It's time to pour into your hobbies and interests this year, dear Scorpio; you've obsessed over your relationships and career path long enough. While your Scorpio yearly horoscope for 2024 offers several steamy opportunities to sweeten up your love life, make sure you are carving out ample space for relaxation.

Although relationships are meaningful, financial growth may demand your attention once Jupiter zips into Gemini and your eighth house of shared resources from May 25 until June 9, 2025. This transit is excellent for reading financial literacy books, paying off debt, and exploring new investments. Some Scorpions may be closing on a deal, receiving an inheritance, or having a heart-to-heart conversation with a loved one about finances around the Jupiter and North Node sextile on July 9. Be smart with your money.

While August could bring temporary slowdowns to your long-term goals for the year, thanks to Mercury retrograde in Leo and your responsibilities sector from Aug. 14 - 28, the Pisces lunar eclipse on Sept. 17 brings you the inspiration and confidence you need to see things through. Don't hold back. To end the year with a bang, Pluto, your cosmic ruler, will begin a new 20-year cycle in Aquarius and your 4th house of home and family on Nov. 15. With Pluto transiting this area of your chart until March 2043, take your time looking for a new home, starting family planning, or making amends with distant friends and relatives. Focus on building genuine connections with people you can rely on and trust.

Sagittarius Horoscope 2024 (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You're typically the jet-setter of the zodiac, Sag, but this year, you'll be staying closer to home more often or at least being more intentional with managing your resources and free time. Your Sagittarius yearly horoscope for 2024 wants you to understand that your desires are doable but require consistent effort. Be patient with yourself as Mercury will station retrograde in Aries from April 1 - 25. You can't rush genius.

Besides, plans may have changed drastically when ambitious Jupiter and wild-card Uranus teamed up in your sixth house of planning on April 20. During this time, allow yourself to experiment with new organizational methods and daily routines without feeling obligated to stick to one thing. Luckily, your cosmic ruler, aka bestie, Jupiter, will journey through Gemini and your seventh house of partnerships and agreements from May 25 until June 9, 2025. During this 12-month cycle, some archers may become more committed to their partner and feel a greater sense of loyalty and devotion. Alternatively, you may meet someone new who has the potential to become a significant long-term partner.

While relationships bring several benefits and causes for celebration this year, you'll find that your passion for writing, designing, or working with anything involving the media may return once Pluto officially enters Aquarius and your third house of self-expression on Nov. 15. However, keep in mind that Mars will retrograde through Leo and your ninth house of higher learning from Dec. 6 until Jan. 6, 2025, so you may decide to take a class or two before you share your work again. Look into immersive activities that spark your creativity.

Capricorn Horoscope 2024 (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

What does stability mean to you, Capricorn? That's a question you would like to answer this year.

Whether you struggled with identity issues or were unsure about your personal goals, you'll be happy to know that a new era is about to begin for you. On Nov. 19, Pluto will officially bid farewell to your sign and kick off a 20-year cycle in Aquarius.

Aquarius Horoscope 2024 (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Growing pains are uncomfortable, but they are worth it, Aquarius, hang in there. While your Aquarius yearly horoscope for 2024 may bring reality checks about what it takes to achieve your goals this year, you can do anything you set your mind to, so use the rest of the year to adopt a more positive and uplifting mindset. Although you may feel eager to get out and about during the first few months of summer, don't miss an opportunity to complete a major home improvement project after the luxurious Jupiter and Uranus conjuncted in Taurus on April 20. What DIY inspiration boards have you been saving for later?

A new era begins on May 25 when joyful Jupiter kicks off a new 12-month cycle in fellow air-sign Gemini and your flirty fifth house of romance and recreation. Whether you start a monthly book club with your besties or get serious about planning quarterly vacations, this fun-filled transit pushes you to reconnect to your playful side. Just be mindful of your spending this summer once Saturn stations retrograde in Pisces and your second house of personal possessions on June 29. Use this time to reassess your values and priorities and focus on developing skills to increase your earning potential.

The rest of the year calls attention to your relationships, especially in August and December when Mercury and Mars station retrograde in Leo and your seventh house of partnerships. Rather than pushing your needs under the rug to avoid conflict, be transparent with your partner about where you feel the relationship may be lacking. Otherwise, you may find yourself suffering in silence. Luckily, power player Pluto will embark on a 20-year cycle in your sign on Nov. 19, where it will stay exclusively until March 2043. While it may be uncomfortable initially, this transit is about unleashing your most independent and unapologetic self. What do you want, Aquarius? What do you need? Soak up what it feels like to put yourself first.

With Pluto in this area of your chart until March 2043, you may become more interested in unconventional forms of spirituality or may experience a profound change in your beliefs.
