THE YEAR OF CAUSE AND AFFECT!
ENDINGS, TRANSFORMATION AND NEW BEGINNINGS
January begins with Mercury retrograde in Aquarius January 14th - February 3rd, an unstable start to the year. Expect the unexpected, shocking and sudden turns of events and news., some dealing with situations from the past, that need action that Is well thought out before putting anything into motion. By dong this potential disaster can be avoided.
Next is the shifting of the Moon’s Nodes, January 19th, from Sagittarius (South Node) to Scorpio, then Gemini North Node to Taurus, focusing on improving personal and universal value systems, sexual behavior, spiritual values and overcoming debilitating jealousies, manipulative and undermining traits that all lead to misuse and abuse of money, sex and power, thus creating karma. This is associated with the South Node being in Scorpio. The South Node is an indicator of major karma that has to be overcome individually and collectively in order to achieve the higher levels of the its opposite sign Taurus.
There will be incidents throughout the cycle, staring around January 19th, of information being brought to the forefront exposing people who have over-stepped boundaries in a very negative way, leading to very negative outcomes. A cycle of purging, transformation and regeneration on all levels, so that a semblance of integrity, respect and understanding, that all actions have consequences , Cause and Affect, can be learned. This is about getting rid of what isn’t positive or good in and around one’s life, in order for something empowering to take its place. Therefore, there will be “endings” this year on many levels.
With this aspect some will reach “rock-bottom”, the “end of the road”, but as the symbol of Scorpio is the Phoenix, each person/situation has the capacity to be rejuvenated, regenerated and transformed into something/someone of value and worth (Taurus).
The Taurus North Node represents the energy/vibration to aspire towards during the cycle, January 19th - July 18th 2023. Some will experience financial collapse, career change, work being restructured leading to rebuilding/creating something new with a more solid foundation and most of all increasing self-worth, personal resources and a strong value system. Each person will be guided to find their own sense of value to make money, at the same time appreciating the natural beauty of the Earth and what it has to offer. Individually and universally it is our responsibility. Art, beauty, luxury, good food, personal care, using natural products for wellness will be high on the list of things that come to focus. It’s important not to fear re-evaluation of one’s life in order to establish a strong foundation of prosperity in mind, body, spirit and Soul.
Throughout this particular aspect, understanding that money is an energy is important and to not be so rigid in perspective. This will help to attract new ideas to increase finances, otherwise, growth/expansion will be affected causing stagnation, leading to symbolic self-destruction (the negative side of Scorpio). Focusing on small victories to achieve goals will help to keep things as positive as possible through the cycle.
Uranus moves forward in Taurus January 18th, just before the Nodes of the Moon switch signs to Taurus and Scorpio. Uranus forward in Taurus will support those with unusual money-making talents and ideas, that hopefully were being worked on during Uranus retrograde cycle. If not, disruption of the financial comfort zone could happen quite suddenly.
January comes to a close with Venus moving forward in Capricorn January 29th, after being retrograde since December 19th. Now partnership matters especially connected to career goals and ambitions will be more favorable and people in authority/power receptive to ideas and and support. Promotions are also likely.
February begins with the Chinese New Year of the Tiger, indicating a year of taking risks, being confident, staring something new, bravery and courage will be at the forefront. However, it’s important to not be too impulsive along the way.
February 3rd Mercury moves forward.
As Spring sets in at the end of April, Pluto will once again retrograde in Capricorn, April 29th m- October 8th, highlighting certain standards, foundations of life and career that needs to be let go because they no longer serve positive purpose. Fear insecurity and doubt preventing this from happening will need to be confronted during the cycle The more stagnation sets in the more things will fall apart and cause problems.
The very next. Day, April 30th, there’s a New Moon Solar Eclipse in Taurus, which would have been felt several weeks before, especially for those who have the rising sign, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars or Jupiter in Taurus and/or Sun in Virgo or Capricorn, also Earth signs. Financial opportunities will present themselves, the more long-term the better. Anything connected to the Earth, personal and environmental resources, beauty and art, will have positive outcomes, clothing and food too, Sustainability and diversification being the operative words.
The “message” here is that we are all connected and the planet is our home and therefore it is our responsibility to take care of it, keeping it healthy for growth/healing on all levels. In addition, to looking for new ways to incorporate new ideas for its transformation, rejuvenation, regeneration and longevity.
Mercury retrogrades once again, May 10th - June 2nd in Gemini, making all forms of communication, travel, technology troublesome with problems and delays, are emphasized with Mercury being the ruler of Gemini.
May 16th ushers in the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio, bringing to an end destructive, obsessive, extreme manipulate scenarios that are also undermining in nature, on a personal and universal level. These issues would have had a debilitating affect individually and on a large scale.
Scorpio rules the 8th house in the Zodiac, that represents ”endings”, the other houses are Cancer/4th house and Pisces/q12th house.
“Endings” come in may forms depending on where his aspect falls in an Astrology chart. This will determine what type of “ending” will occur around this time. But know that it will, in order to make room for something new and better to take its place, to create transformation, regeneration own all levels.
In conjugation with the fact that a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse ALWAYS indicates a “wipe out” in some way shape or form, of a something that has reached its limit and its time is up. There is a strong possibility that Covid19 could end or greatly subside.
This particular Eclipse really denotes and sets the stage for new beginnings to occur by October, with the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Scorpio, October 25th. Therefore, whatever happens with this aspect should not be taken lightly, it’s time to let go and transform the negative into the positive, .
June starts with Mercury moving forward in Gemini, June 3rd . Jupiter shifts signs briefly from Pisces into Aries, May 11th - October 8th, when it goes back into Pisces. In the sign of Aries, Jupiter will magnify and influence, new beginnings, starting a new business venture, being your own boss. At the same time opportunity to lead organizations and groups will present themselves. There is also the chance of high rank in politics, the military, science and literature happening too. However , the negative Aries traits of being argumentative, impulsive, selfish and impatient will be front and center during this cycle.
Saturn retrogrades in Aquarius, June 4th - October 23rd, emphasizing restructure of imitations that affect freedoms/individuality to express talents and abilities. In addition to looking for new ways to establish uniqueness into viable career structures. Anything that involves helping others, will also do well. This could happen anyway during this cycle because Aquarius represents sudden/unexpected change. Things that are experimental in nature will have to be redone to make improvement during this retrograde cycle.
The month ends with Neptune retrograde in Pisces, June 28th - December 3rd. Once again the “veil” will be put in place, shielding and hiding things from view so they’re not quite clearly seen, but there is a sense and feeling something is in the background, not ready to reveal itself until close to when the planet moves forward.
Ultimately, the first 6 months of 2022 are a signal of “endings” and new beginnings that are a result of Cause and Effect, choices made that weren’t the highest and best, creating karma. However, the “door” will open for healing rejuvenation and regeneration to take place.
The most important thing to remember as events begin to unfold, we are not “islands” into ourselves. We are all connected, and what we do to one, we do to all.
