October begins with a Solar Eclipse and New Moon in Virgo, inviting us to explore our inner worlds. While tensions from the Eclipse Corridor may ease, any relief will likely be short-lived.

The slowest moving planet considered in Vedic Astrology, Saturn, is slowing and starting to reverse his movement in his own sign of Aquarius, on June 29th, 2024 and until November 15th, 2024. Basically, all the lessons we were trying to learn in the end of 2023 and the beginning of 2024 will be presented again to us in the next 4.5 months, checking in where more work might be required in order for us to keep thriving along our life’s path.

Jupiter, known in Vedic astrology as the Guru, a planet representing wisdom, knowledge, spirituality and finances, has transitioned out of Aries and into Taurus.

Jupiter just entered the sign of Taurus, where he will spend the next 12 months, impacting areas of wealth, nutrition, dharma, spirituality and personal growth.

Now, that the corridor of eclipses is behind us, the spring energy is shifting and most areas will start feeling lighter and brighter, especially if we managed to release and let go of things that no longer served us during this last period of cleansing.

As we find ourselves right past the middle of the spring corridor of eclipses, most of us probably have already felt the emotional roller coaster to a certain degree that usually accompanies this demanding two-week astro period. Full Solar Eclipse is expected to occur on April 8th, which will close out this year’s spring corridor, with aftershocks still rippling for a few days afterwards. Hang tight! We are more than half-way there!
