My aunt moved to Kansas over a year after she put me me out of the house. Not only did she put me out, but she lied about it! My grandma was in for a surprise when we showed up on her door step.
My aunt just left me and some of my belongings on the porch and drove off. Her and my grandma don't get along, so she had nothing to say to her. Then my aunt starts writing letters saying we need to talk, inviting me to Thanksgiving dinner etc. What I want to know is do you think her behavior was justified? explain.

I did nothing wrong. My aunt told me the reason why she was putting me out all of a sudden was because she was
moving. She ended up moving over a year later and she did not give me any notice. maybe it was my fault for not being prepared...

I did graduate from high school and was just coming into a job.

Mistreating other people is never justified. Your aunt sounds unstable and selfish. I am so sorry you have had this experience but please know that it is not your fault that you're being moved around. I would tell your aunt that you would be happy to talk on the phone but that you can not come to her home. Do not get in the middle of her struggle with your grandmother. If your aunt begins to try to manipulate you into that position or anything else you are uncomfortable with, end all contact. I wish you all the best.

Not everyone is equipped to be a good parent. Maybe your Aunt got more than she bargained for and felt that you deserved better than what she could give you at the time and felt that your grandmother would be in a much better position to care for you. That is actually a considerate thing to do, but it may be making her feel very guilty now and regretful so that may be why she is trying to patch the relationship. It sounds like she does care for you. Remember that she is the adult and do not take responsibility for her actions or feel responsible in any way for her inability to care for you at this time.

Before excepting the invite...I would demand a reason as to why she would do that. Good Luck <3

That depends on what you did to make her ditch you.
