January 3rd, 2022

Those pre-2020 New Year’s Days of compulsively hitting January 1st running, weighed down by self-help resolutions and linear must-reach goals, now seem like a distant memory …..now we know better, we do better.
As Venus retrogrades in Capricorn until January 29th, the astrology of January 2022 is all about strengthening your psychic bedrock of magnetic physical healing, repair and integration. Don’t jump straight into the Next before you experience the Now. You need to be rose rooted before you can create next season’s growth and deeply planted ahead of the creative highwater mark of April’s Jupiter/Neptune conjunction.

Frame it as a wonderful opportunity to wake up from the deep sleep of your blind spots and repetitive karmic loops; as a chance to become fully present in Now. If you cling to or fall back into the old fictions you used to fool yourself with, the present with its potential is inaccessible. If you keep trying to second guess or project yourself into the future, you lose your power to act Now.
On Sunday January 2nd, a stealth Super New Moon at 12 Capricorn squares Chiron and trines unpredictable Uranus. This is the first of 4 Super Moons in 2022 – a New Moon on steroids at its closest to the Earth, bringing geo-magnetic disturbance, high tides and storm surges. These geo-physical manifestations also fritz and fry your nervous system, making you extra-sensitive, so channel this earthy Capricorn Moon into practical clearing, sweeping away anything that is preventing your energy and creativity from flowing freely. Gift yourself with gentle body work, being outside in nature, eating well. Jupiter in Pisces activates the karmic Nodes of Fate, giving you a glimpse of the big picture, the view from the mountaintop, evoking bright faith and fierce hope in the rising Jupiter/Neptune waters of new life just up ahead.
There is some important soul searching to be done now with Venus retrograde in Pluto’s underworld until January 29th and Mercury Guide of Souls retrograde alongside her between January 14 to February 3rd.
On January 8th, Venus will literally black out, occulted by the Sun as she morphs into the Morning Star aka Lucifer, the light bearer. At this Venus Star Point, something may have to die in order to be reborn. It is all about seeing what really matters when all your usual props and distractions have been taken away and working with the energies to permanently clear away the dross, the superficial and the unnecessary.

Chandra Symbol Super New Moon Capricorn 13:
A very old wrinkled brown paper sack.
“When personal karma matches collective patterns, we combine forces against ourselves from within and from without. We spring a trap upon ourselves. Yet inside this steel trap, something is cooking. We can be fed by what it cooks up if we can stay with ourselves in the very midst of abandoning ourselves. It may take many crises and the wearing away of old disguises before we are willing and able to realise that we can shift our stance considerably. All we have to do is recognise that part of us is moving through this dilemma, not stuck in it. The most subtle shift in perspective has long range reverberations down the line which are massive. We can discover here that this is an old syndrome, something we’ve been through before, just the same way. It is wearing out. If we come to know this, we can cast it off before it wears us out.” Inside Degrees Elias Lonsdale
Aries Weekly Forecast: January 2-9, 2021
The main thing for you to keep in mind this month is that, although you may be ahead of the pack in terms of motivation and new thinking, now is not the time to put the pedal to the metal. Your chance to break new career ground will arrive from the 24th when your personal planet Mars crosses the top of your chart for the first time in two years. The Capricorn New Moon on Sunday 2nd starts a promising new work cycle and a possible change of direction- set your intentions but don’t make any big leaps. Venus is retrograding across the pinnacle of your chart until January 29th, so expect extended negotiations over pay, a promotion and also in your personal relationships.
Know what is negotiable and non-negotiable.
Taurus Weekly Forecast: January 2-9, 2021
A powerful Super New Moon in fellow Earth sign Capricorn on Sunday 9th gives you a vision of what might be possible in 2022. Now that expansionist Jupiter has moved into your angle of friends, networks, groups and alliances, your people landscape is about to grow. Over the next few months, the more you share your big picture thinking, the more clients, followers, collaborators and mentors will be drawn to your social circle. As your own planet Venus is traveling back over old ground until January 29th, go back over old ideas and projects that have been left by the wayside and mine them for gold. Make a note of January 8/9th when the Sun blacks out Venus as she morphs from Evening Star to the light bearing Morning Star-something that you will mirror in 202 as you move further into the public domain.
Heart over head.
Gemini Weekly Forecast: January 2-9, 2021
The welcome news for you is Jupiter arriving at the pinnacle of your chart to stay until May. Expect more recognition for your talents and to become more visible in your field.

Venus is retrograding here until January 29th, excavating secrets and bringing your true motives and desires into the light of day. Make a note of Saturday 8th January when the Sun blacks out Venus to avoid big purchases and be alert for cyber scamming. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
Show me the money.

Libra Weekly Forecast: January 2-9, 2021
