EYE ON THE SKY: Astronomical weather for the new year
There are some subtle changes taking place in the world of astrology. Saturn moved into Purvabhadrapada Nakshatra (20 Aquarius – 3.20 Cancer) on Friday, coming out of the D9 conjunction of Ketu and Pisces. At the same time, it moves into the debilitated pada 1 of the difficult nakshatra until February 3rd. When Saturn is in Aries, you become indecisive and have a tendency to try in the wrong direction without success. The result can be anger and frustration. The first pada is often about action towards new beginnings, but Saturn here is spending too much time thinking about what to do or thinking things through carefully. spend. We should adopt Nike’s slogan “Just do it”. Saturn in Aries can be too fearful and run around too much like a rabbit, but they must be slow and steady like a tortoise to win the race.
Mars is still retrograde and will be in Virgo Navamsha in Pushya Nakshatra till January 4th. Rahu is also in the same pada and generates subtle Mars/Rahu energy. Rahu has great dignity in Virgo and this combination can create an unusual rush for creative action. There is suffering here that can lead to anger, aggression, and vindictiveness, and if the Virgo/Pisces axis is influencing the 1/7th axis or relationships in your birth chart or D9 chart, this is It can appear in human relationships. Take your time and drink a calming cup of tea or coconut water to calm your anger and avoid running around like a rabbit.
The new moon in Purvashadha Nakshatra on December 30th at 15:17 Sagittarius is the second new moon, or black moon, of the month. It’s always low energy, a time to relax, step back, and prepare for a new beginning. The Moon in Sagittarius and the soft, sweet nature of this Nakshatra will brighten up the usual New Moon gloom somewhat.
Mars will be off limits from January 1st to April 7th. I’ll write a separate article about this, but energy levels may rise and should help Mars transit Cancer a little.
Just on Friday, January 3rd, Venus is under the influence of Mars with a perfect 8th house aspect, creating passion, aggression, and strife in your relationships, especially if you’re an Aquarius or Leo.
Mars will make its second opposition to Pluto on Friday, January 3rd. This is not a great aspect as it could increase global conflicts and aggression in troubled areas such as Russia/Ukraine. This energy can often activate volcanoes and earthquakes.
On a personal level, it can lead to aggressive verbal abuse and intense energy, which you may feel most if you have planets in 6-7 Cancer/Capricorn. This can lead to intense sexual encounters and potential conflicts and arguments with your partner, so don’t focus on being right or avoiding verbal abuse, and be sure to listen.
