As one planet begins its backwards movement, another’s comes to an end. This week welcomes Jupiter Retrograde in Gemini, and the ending of Pluto Retrograde in Capricorn.
It’s a week of deep transition, letting go, and introspection. It’s a week of realignment and inner questioning, completion and new awareness.
Jupiter Retrograde in Gemini: October 9 2024
Welcome to our annual Jupiter Retrograde, where our planet of abundance, growth, and expansion begins its seemingly backwards movement in our skies. Jupiter Retrograde begins this week on October 9, 2024, where it will continue until February 4, 2025, while in the air sign of Gemini.
As a planet shifts into a retrograde motion, its energy moves from outward and expressive to inward and reflective. Instead of expressing through us into this tangible world, it concentrates on what lives within us – our narratives, our emotions, our perspectives and our underworld. This time of introspection invites review, inner listening, and realignment.
Jupiter has been in Gemini since May of this year, and as it turns backwards in this same sign, we are revisiting this path we have just been walking upon. We are reviewing the last five months reflecting on all that we had been gathering and experiencing while Jupiter moved forward through Gemini.
We are reflecting on our relationship with our minds and all that lives within it. How do our thoughts impact us? How do our thoughts create, or shape, our lives? We are looking over all that we have taken in and learned – the information, ideas, perspectives, narratives – and we are questioning them. What do we want living in our minds? What lens do we desire to see the world through? With all this new information and perspectives that Gemini brought us, what is true to us?
These next four months of Jupiter Retrograde is a beautiful time to open the mind and explore our own understanding of truth and wisdom, and our relationship with our minds. It is a time to be in conversation with our inner knowing and voice, and to create the space to realign our vision of the future.

Pluto Direct in Capricorn: October 11 2024
We have been in a space of deep transition both collectively and individually since March of 2023, dancing between two major eras. The movement of Pluto in our skies always brings with it major change, spending between 11 and 30 years in each zodiac sign.
This week, we meet our final stage of the dance, our last chapter in this transitory space. Pluto finishes its retrograde on October 11, 2024, and begins travelling through its last moments in Capricorn for over 230 years, entering Aquarius on November 19, 2024, where it will remain until 2043.
Pluto is our planet of transformation, death and rebirth. It is empowerment, the unconscious, the knowing deep within our bodies. It represents the unseen, the mystery, and the hidden – both within and without. As this planet finishes its retrograde and begins moving forward once again, it moves from inward to outward, where we are invited to begin taking action, creating change, and realigning ourselves and our lives based on the deep introspection, transformation, and revelations made throughout its backwards movement over the last five months.
This month-and-a-bit between now and November 19 holds the space for major release. We are closing doors and finalising chapters. We are meeting completions and letting go of identities. We are shedding skin and saying goodbye to a version of ourselves we have been living within since 2008 when Pluto first entered Capricorn.
Your Weekly Horoscope October 6-12 2024
As one retrograde ends and another begins, both of these energies bring us into a deep reflection and realignment. This week, invite space for conversation – with your mind, heart, intuition, unconscious.
For as Jupiter begins its backwards spin, a new review is taking place – one that desires a deeper understanding of your truth, perspectives, and relationship with your mind.
And as Pluto begins moving forward once again, we are re-meeting ourselves after walking through deep inner transformation and transition. As this transformation of ourselves now comes to the surface, it is ready to be realised. It is ready to become who we are in the world, rather than kept inwardly just for us.
Allow yourself space and flexibility within your sense of identity, your understanding of yourself and the world, and what you desire. The more flexibility we allow, the more we can surprise ourselves. For there is more of us we are ready to meet. More of us we are ready to embody. More of us we are ready to bring into our lives and create with.
