January 2022 Astrology

“Action is the foundational key to all success” - Pablo Picasso. Calling January “pragmatic” is merely an undertone to the core foundation that can be laid this month if only we try. The New Moon in Capricorn on January 2nd was electric with a boost of energy from Uranus, the Planet of Shocks & Revolutions. Like flipping the switch after replacing a burnt out bulb, we can see again, and there’s no way we’re unseeing what’s been illuminated. Now is the time to prepare & act; an intense Cancer Full Moon on the 17th comes just days after Mercury in Aquarius stations Retrograde on the 14th, signaling a window of opportunity to make firm commitment towards your goals. Mars (direct) & Mercury (Rx) will enter Capricorn on the 24th & 25th proper, and smack in the middle of the month, Uranus in Taurus finally stations Direct again on the 18th. Uranus moves like underground lightning, assisting our decisions with accuracy, creativity and speed. Now you see it, now you don’t (or vice versa depending on your objective). The Cosmos is asking for progress, not perfection. Consistency, not intensity. Take a practical step forward towards expansion and progression, or hold your peace till Merc’s Rx is complete on Feb 3rd, making our communication and exchanges more concrete again. Cards stack against the hesitant, now is the time show up and show out about how committed you are to your goals, dreams, & greatest desires.
