The world enters 2024 with several unresolved issues. Some of the key issues at the end of 2023 leading into 2024 include the Israeli-Hamas conflict, the cost-of-living crisis, the housing crisis, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, widespread pessimism, the tail end of the Covid-19 pandemic, refugees and finally the possible election of Donald Trump as the president of the USA. There are also the outstanding discoveries of the James Web Space Telescope.
2024 remains another highly potent year compared to the average as the two key nano-ages that are activated in 2024 resonate with larger and more powerful periods. To arrive at any nano-age, it is necessary to start with an astrological age of some 2,150 years, and divide it into 12 sub-ages of approximately 178 years each. These sub-ages can be further divided by 12 into micro-ages of some 15 years each. These micro-ages can be divided by 12 into nano-ages of some 15 months each, and all these periods have three decans each, so a nano-age decan is approximately 5 months. [for more details, see The Age of Aquarius for Dummies ].
All the 5-month nano-age decans that will be in play up until November 2024 resonate with larger periods of the same sign. For example, the Scorpio nano-age and overflow (Jun 22 – Aug 23 – Nov 24) resonates with the Scorpio sub-age overflow (1970 – 2149) [see Table 1]. Due to the resonance between the small Scorpio nano-age overflow with the far more influential Scorpio sub-age decan and sub-age overflow, the small Scorpio nano-age will have far more punch compared to a different nano-age or nano-age decan that has no resonance.
The Scorpio nano-age overflow (August 2023 – November 2024)
The main story for 2024 is the continuing unfolding of the Scorpio nano-age overflow (Aug 23 – Nov 24). Though Scorpio brings rebellions, revolutions, increased terrorism, nuclear threats and volcanic disruptions, it would be a mistake to state that 2024 will focus only on the difficult sides of Scorpio and that 2024 is therefore predicted to be a bad year. The peaking of the Scorpio nano-age and overflow (Jun 22 – Aug 23 – Nov 24) in August 2023 quickly experienced its effects on Taurus-aligned Israel with the unexpected attack by Hamas fighters from Gaza bringing death and abduction to some border Israeli districts and reigniting passions around the world.
Though Israel appears to have the upper hand in the current round of conflict with Hamas, the astrology indicates another perspective. Scorpio promotes assaults upon (Taurus) Israel, and Scorpio is a strong influence in the world for the whole of this century. Under the same Scorpio sub-age overflow in the previous Pisces age, the Jews were expelled from Israel by the Romans in 135 AD. This is equivalent to about the year 2105. The problem for Israel is that they must win every battle, while the Palestinians in league with many sympathetic neighbors, only need to win the last battle. This will most likely occur before the end of the current Scorpio sub-age overflow in 2149 but unlikely in our lifetimes.
Scorpio is also a frugal financial influence, and this has manifested as the cost-of-living crisis that has occurred in many countries throughout the world. Typically, Scorpio undermines the economy and banks, but this time, its focus seems to be on the shortage of money due to inflation – especially in the poorer half of society. This difficult financial prognosis should affect most of 2024, but its intensity should subside before the end of 2024.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine is unlikely to be resolved in Ukraine’s favor while Scorpio remains strong as Scorpio is strongly associated with Russia, and Scorpio’s opposite sign of Taurus seems associated with Ukraine which was often called ‘the breadbasket of Europe’. This may explain the current stalemate.
Other events associated with Scorpio include the eruption of the Icelandic volcano Fagradalsfjall in November 2023 following earlier eruptions in March 2021, August 2022 and July 2023. This hive of activity followed 815 years of inactivity, and it is therefore notable that when it erupted around 1206 AD,[i] this occurred in the Taurus sub-age overflow (1075 – 1254) while the recent eruptions all occurred in the Scorpio sub-age overflow (1970 – 2149) with Taurus and Scorpio opposite signs. Any volcanic eruption can be associated with Scorpio, and for Scorpio, Taurus is a stressful sign sitting at the 7th house position. We may not have seen the end of erupting Fagradalsfjall.
Scorpio is associated with space travel and exploration. Naturally, dark matter and dark energy are associated with Scorpio and the great majority of the universe is believed composed of dark matter and energy. One of the key positive foci of the Scorpio nano-age and overflow has been the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) which was launched in December 2021 and by August 2022, just within the Scorpio nano-age and overflow (Jun 22 – Aug 23 – Nov 24), started to provide insights into the early universe which has undermined much of the previous scientific expectations.
The JWST showed that primordial galaxies appeared much earlier.[ii] Judging by the reaction to the JWST images, a revolution is seeping throughout astronomy and the Standard Cosmological Model is under threat creating the Crisis in Cosmology[iii] – though in reality it is just an example of another step forward in our understanding of the universe. Scorpio rules both revolutions and deep space, so these discoveries precipitated by the JWST perfectly correlate to this Scorpio nano-age and overflow as part of the skeleton of the massive Scorpio sub-age and overflow (1791 – 1970 – 2149)
Most people would expect that we are at the beginning of thousands of years of space exploration, but this is not what astrology indicates. Our era of space exploration may only extend to the end of the next century when the influence of Scorpio peters out. Other issues will replace space travel – for a while at least, and it could be many centuries before the world returns to intensive space exploration including space telescopes etc. The economic trauma of climate change and major conflict in the 21st century may stifle space exploration before humanity regains its momentum established in the 20th century.
Libra nano-age (Aug 2023 – Nov 2024 – Feb 2026)
The arrival of the Libra nano-age overflow in November 2024 is a major development because this Libra nano-age sits within the Libra micro-age decan and overflow (Dec 2019 – Nov 2024 – Nov 2029) which moves into its more potent overflow stage for the period November 2024 until November 2029 as the following Table 3 indicates.
This Libra nano-age and Libra micro-age decan sits within both the Libra sub-age (1970 – 2149) which itself sits at a critical point in the massive Libra age decan and overflow (1433 – 2149 – 2865) – see Table 4 below:
The period November 2024 to November 2029 forms a critical part of the Libra age-decan backbone and will probably be the most potent period for most readers alive today other than those alive during the two decades surrounding 1970 – what colloquially is termed the Age of Aquarius but was actually the peak of the Scorpio sub-age and overflow (1791 – 1970 – 2148) combining revolutionary Scorpio with revolutionary Aquarius and accounting for that massive cultural revolution that continues to pulsate through Western society today.
The last time the world experienced a Libra micro-age decan overflow was from 1915 to 1920 aligned with most of the First World War. [see The Backbone of the Libra Age-Decan (1433 – 2149) ]. Also, it’s relevant to acknowledge the arrival of the Libra quasi nano-age (Apr 2024 – Jul 2025) which will again increase the likelihood of increased conflict in any current conflict, and an increase in conflict due to a new theater of war.
There is a good astrological reason why the prospect of a major war or conflict is gaining ground. The current unrest between Palestinians and Israelis is in addition to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia which brought the most significant conflict back to Europe since the Second World War. The world since early October 2023 now has two areas of greater tension than the normal African or South American wars or insurrections that always seem to exist. Either of these two major conflagrations could lead to a much bigger conflict, or these two conflicts are setting a trend towards greater than average conflicts, and one or more new heightened conflicts could appear at any time and any one of these conflicts could get out of control. This will be particularly potent from November 2024 onward when the Libra nano-age enters its overflow period and marks the start of the most potent time of conflict most people in the world will experience in their lives. Occasionally Libra produces a peace treaty.
One example of the peace deals that also can be associated with Libra is the amnesty deal between the Spanish government and a Catalan separatist party in late 2023 which will allow the socialists to remain in power with the support of Catalonia. The attempt by Catalonia to secede from Spain in late 2017 occurred under the revolutionary Aquarius micro-age decan and overflow (Dec 14 – Dec 19 – Nov 24) but with the Aries nano-age and overflow (Mar 16 – Jun 17 – Sep 18) in play, activating the 12th house to Spain’s Taurus. The fact that under the Scorpio-Libra[iv] nano-age (Aug 23 – Nov 24) a sort of reconciliation has occurred, is testimony to the treaty side of Libra, and also with Scorpio opposite Taurus Spain, this also activates the 7th house of alliances. We may see another development in this story with the Aquarius nano-age decan and overflow (Jan 24 – Jun 24 – Nov 24). The Gemini sub-age decan and overflow (1970 – 2029 – 2088) promotes fragmentation.
The reason why we get caught off guard by pandemics and high-level conflict is due to the march of micro-ages and their decans. Every age has twelve sub-ages of around 178 years each, and these sub-ages have twelve micro-ages of almost 15 years each including three decans of almost five years each. Hardly anyone today has experienced the power of Libra before the Libra micro-age decan and overflow (Dec 19 – Nov 24 – Nov 29) as the last time the world experienced such a Libra period was from 1910 to 1920, so we do not have a collective memory of the direct experience of Libra at this level.
The same occurred with the Covid-19 pandemic which correlated to the Aquarius micro-age decan overflow (Dec 19 – Nov 24) but the previous period when Aquarius had this strength was the Aquarius micro-age and overflow (1910 – 1925 – 1940) so very few people have experienced the extreme disruption Aquarius invariably brings in its wake. Before the Aquarius micro-age decan and overflow I did not realize that one of the main attributes introduced to an unsuspecting world by Aquarius is disruption – such as we experienced during the Covid times.
The current Libra sub-age (1970 – 2149) has three sub-age decans and the relevant sub-age decan for 2024 is the Gemini sub-age decan and overflow (1970 – 2029 – 2088) with both Gemini and Libra dual-bodied signs. This signifies that the world is returning to either a bipolar world or a fragmented world – or both. For better or worse, China will continue to extend its influence in the world, and ‘oppose’ or balance Western culture – one way or another. We are not going to be one big happy world this century or millennium as the Libra age-decan and overflow of the Aquarian age extends to 2865. However, with Libra, there is always the possibility of peace accords and treaties.
Most of the manifestation of our tiny Libra nano-age and overflow should appear later in 2025, but Libra also promotes the reinstatement or elevation of the role of women. While this is currently limited to mainly Western and modern nations, full social, legal and political equality remains elusive even in Western nations, and dwindles as we venture into Second World nations (Iran) with some reversals in Third World nations such as Afghanistan. The world is currently in the Libra decan (1433 – 2149) of the Aquarian age (1433 – 3581), but while much progress has been made with women’s rights, this evolution in the world will require the addition of the Libra age-decan overflow (2149 – 2865) to see women’s rights as an entrenched global phenomenon. This millennium is dedicated to women based on our place in the Age of Aquarius, but it will take most of the millennium to achieve.
Libra specifically implies equality, and as such has been the symbolic standard-bearer for post-Enlightenment equality and freedom in Western nations. All forms of art, beautiful objects, gardens, and the leisurely social life fall within Libra’s gambit. Libra rules young women and girls. On the downside, Libra themes encompass indecisiveness and hesitation, which may impede political decision-making. Any archetype associated with Libra’s opposite sign Aries is, in general, lacking in Libra, therefore Libra is not associated with major engineering feats, sport, and male heroes.
Libra relates to Protestantism, China and the oriental East in general, the USA and specifically with the USA government. Any nation or region associated with Aries can either come under attack, or attack in a Libra period or suffer in some way. Aries is possibly associated with Australia, the whole of Europe and specifically Germany and the UK, plus Iran and Palestine. Aries may also be associated with Afghanistan, Brazil, Canada, India, Mongolia, New Zealand, Russia and even the gun-toting USA for obvious reasons. Though war and conflict are not predicted exclusively for these Aries-aligned nation, they could be combatants in any conflict ahead, especially China with its Libra credentials.
Nano-age decans
Gemini nano-age decan overflow (January – June 2024)
The Gemini nano-age decan will enter its overflow mode in January 2024 until June 2024. This little Gemini nano-age is resonating with the Gemini micro-age (Dec 2014 – Nov 2029) which itself is part of the backbone of the Gemini sub-age decan (1970 – 2029) of the Libra sub-age (1970 – 2149). Gemini is a big deal for most of this century and will make a splash in the first third of 2024.
Gemini promotes the communication revolution that has followed the establishment of the World Wide Web but is anti-anything associated with Sagittarius such as international travel, honesty and ethics. Gemini focuses on youth and students and vocational education, but also on scams, online theft and youth crime which is seeing a worldwide surge. Gemini is the sign of cities so should continue to promote the influx of the world’s population to ever-larger urban centers.
Any Sagittarian country can suffer under Gemini. This may apply to Australia, China, India, Laos, Spain, Thailand, UK, USA, Israel and the Vatican City. This country list is not exhaustive, so I may not catch all countries with Sagittarius strongly placed in their respective astrological signatures. Gemini countries can come under focus for good or bad and include Iraq, the Koreas, Singapore, Syria and Tajikstan, which again is not complete. Gemini activates Pisces countries or regions 4th house of anti-status, so these are worth noting: Europe, France, Ireland, Mexico, Russia, Spain, Turkey, Ukraine, UK, USA, most Caribbean nations, Brunei, Cameroon, Czech Republic, most Polynesian countries, and Vatican City.
The relevance of this Gemini nano-age decan and especially its overflow is that most of the current century will have Gemini near the top of the totem pole due to the Gemini sub-age decan and overflow (1970 – 2029 – 2088) and 2029 is fast approaching. This little nano-age is yet another preview for the times ahead.
Aquarius nano-age decan and overflow (Jan 24 – Jun 24 – Nov 24)
We enter 2024 under the influence of the Gemini nano-age decan and overflow (Aug 23 – Jan 24 – Jun 24) and the world will again have to cope with Aquarius associated with the overlapping Aquarius nano-age decan and overflow (Jan 24 – Jun 24 – Nov 24) especially in its second half. Both these influences also resonate with more powerful periods, so never a dull moment in 2024. The one to watch the most is the Aquarius nano-age decan (Jan 2024 – Jun 2024) especially when it enters the Aquarius nano-age decan overflow (Jun 2024 – Nov 2024) as this is the sting-in-the-tail of the Aquarius micro-age decan and overflow (Dec 14 – Dec 19 – Nov 24) which has already upset much of the world with the arrival of Trump and populace right-wing politicians around the world, Brexit for Leo UK and the coup-de-gras – the Covid 19 pandemic that did more to interrupt the world than anything since the Second World War.
The sting-in-the-tail is the final fling of any sign, in this case, Aquarius. What will Aquarius interrupt or significantly alter in 2024 – though mainly in the second half of 2024? Firstly, it may see a resurgence of Covid-19. COVID-19 appeared at the exact highpoint of the Aquarius micro-age and overflow in December 2019 and so this final sting-in-the-tail could see its return – but at a smaller scale and impact compared to its initial appearance. It could also see something new that is an echo of the Covid-19 pandemic.
This Aquarius nano-age decan and overflow encompasses the US presidential elections in November 2024. Will Trump return in all his glory, or will his place be filled with a clone? Will the presidential election have an unexpected result? Aquarius empowers Russia so will Russia wipe Ukraine off the map or will Ukraine’s fight for (Aquarius) liberty and freedom succeed? Aquarius is not good for Israel and so Israel may face greater-than-expected challenges in war with Hamas?
Major themes associated with Aquarius comprise democracy; electricity; flight; eccentricity; dictators and tyrants. Anything new including modernity, fresh developments especially in the scientific, mechanical and electrical fields, concepts and views of the future, the avant-garde, unique, sudden and unexpected developments, and science fiction (with Pisces). On the dark side of Aquarius are fascists, dictators, tyrants and autocratic governments, such as Hitler, Mussolini, Pol Pot and now Putin. Electricity, computers, and all associated technology including flight and space travel are Aquarius. Eccentrics (the mad professor), schizophrenics, fringe dwellers, different or abnormal behavior, astrology, astronomy, explorers, and anything exciting or bizarre are usually associated. Finally, Aquarius does everything quickly, like a bolt of lightning or with unprecedented speed. Aquarius is probably associated with world government. Aquarian periods are generally ‘exciting’.
Countries associated with Aquarius include Germany, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Turkey and the USA. A number of these may take significant focus in any Aquarius period, and not necessarily for anything positive. Leo countries can experience stress in an Aquarius period. Such countries include France, Greece, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, the Koreas, Laos, Serbia, Thailand, UK, Zimbabwe and probably Ukraine. The full scope of the Aquarius nano-age decan and overflow as the sting-in-the-tail of the Aquarius micro-age decan and overflow is the preview of a much larger Aquarius period whose might will not be experienced until around 2088 and beyond when the coming Aquarius sub-age decan and overflow (2029 – 2088 – 2149) peaks in 2088. This approaching Aquarius sub-age decan and overflow is the baptism of the Age of Aquarius (1433 – 3581) and I am sure the world will be both shocked and surprised as to what Aquarius brings to the table, in the same way we have been shocked and surprised at what the Aquarius micro-age decan and overflow (Dec 2014 – Dec 2019 – Nov 2024) has brought us – but on a much smaller scale. Our soon-to-end little Aquarius period is the preview of the approximate 120 years Aquarius sub-age decan and overflow. Many key developments that have gained traction in our little Aquarius period will see their fruition around 2088 and beyond. This naturally includes AI and the marvels of our computer age. The scientific validity of astrology will probably occur around 2088.
Conclusion
Though the focus in 2024 sits with the key nano-ages and their decans that apply, the world remains in the Cancer micro-age and overflow (2000 – 2014 – 2029), and Cancer will promote all domestic issues including the housing crisis and people looking for home – refugees. Though not particularly in focus in 2024, they will remain contentious issues. Cancer will continue to focus on all countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, the Middle East, any Islamic nation and of course China.
The invasion of Ukraine by Russia reflects the stress created between the Pisces and Aquarius ages. Putin is a perfect reflection of the kind of leaders the world was forced to endure under the reign of the Pisces age while the Ukrainians prefer to live under Western-style liberal democracy fostered by Aquarius. These types of conflicts and disputes will be entrenched in the world for quite some time. Nuclear threats and intimidation by the likes of Russia and North Korea should be expected at a minimum in 2024 as the world remains highly vulnerable under Scorpio. There could be an increased focus on nuclear power.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the result of the tail end of European colonialism when the West went out and conquered as much of the world as possible starting in the 15th century aligned with Pisces achieving its peak power in 1433 AD and washing over the following centuries. The problem here is that the West has relinquished most of their conquered territories back to their original inhabitants since the Second World War, while the Israelis have tried to extend European imperialism past its use-by date. The arguments by both sides are entirely understandable, but the track record shows that the Israelis will ultimately find themselves on the wrong side of history unless they learn how to peacefully co-exist with the Palestinians and their neighbors.
Covid-19 still may have a small punch left in its bag of tricks, or perhaps something similar will take its place in 2024. Since the Great Recession (2007 – 2009), the world has seen central banks working overtime printing money to stimulate a sluggish world economic environment. All that extra money slushing around can still only buy the same limited amount of goods available, so the price of shares in the stock market and real estate significantly increase, and then spread to consumer goods and services. Such stimulatory packages intrinsically favor the rich half of society, as they own the majority of real estate and shares, while the poorer half of society must suffer a loss of purchasing power and thus experience a lower standard of living.
The increasingly pessimistic view of the world expressed by a growing number of people is a combination of Gemini and moody Cancer. Gemini is opposite in nature to optimistic Sagittarius, and the ongoing influence from the Sagittarius sub-age and overflow (1612 – 1791 -1970) is currently being torn to shreds by the Gemini sub-age decan and overflow (1970 – 2029 – 2088) to the detriment of optimism and the growth of Gemini pessimism. The Cancer micro-age and overflow (2000 – 2024 – 2029) will make people hypersensitive and moody, thus producing a gloomy outlook for many people.
Finally, Scorpio remains the dominant influence for most of 2024 and Scorpio, amongst other things, is associated with inner truth and peace. Though way outside the experience of most people, the strength of Scorpio in 2024 is as good as it gets for those rare seekers of Truth. When the world presents itself at its blackest, it can coincide with when Truth is easiest to find compared to most times in history.

Note – Details on the Virgo nano-age (Nov 24 – Feb 26) and its Taurus nano-age decan (Nov 24 – Apr 25) will be posted later in 2024.
