Originality versus the need to fit in.
4everbalance and the Holistic Wellness Program
The Sky and Zodiacs for the:
Months of
December 2021- January 2022
Why are you reading these two months together?
Because December 2021 – January 2022 are so interconnected. The December ‘cup’, full of events and experiences from 2019-2021, ‘runneth over’ and into the January 2022 ‘cup’, which can set the pace for the whole year. Your job is to place a strainer, so only the clean, clear liquid pours into your new cup, your new life. In essence, out with the old toxicity, in with the new appetite for life. Therefore, I combined these two months, but kept the information simple. Hopefully this can help guide you not just through the holidays, but well into 2022.
HIGHLIGHTS
Expansive, bountiful and restless Jupiter enters creative, altruistic and illusive Pisces on December 29th! Compassion, is the word.
Uranus turns direct January 10th. Set them free.
Stability seeking, rewarding, yet limitation setting Saturn, in rebellious Aquarius, squares innovative,universal, yet dogmatic Uranus, in fixed Taurus December 24 to January 1st. Freedom vs Control. Boom.

The past is gone.
If today is now,
if tomorrow is a
figment of our imagination,
then this is the time
to design our new life.
December 2021 – January 2022
Aspects and dates for December 2021 – January 2022.
Please remember throughout December 2021 – January 2022 that Saturn still squares Uranus, in direct square December 24 to January 1st. Freedom vs Control. Boom. The status quo continues to push us back, as it is emotionally disconnected from the injustices it creates and wants to maintain its stronghold, on a global scale.
Food for thought, just before the New Year rolls in. Remember your childhood years, when one of the most important things in your life was to fit in? What would you advise that child, now that you know better? Don’t fit your beautiful self into others’ aspirations! See yourself, be yourself! Among many changes in our lives, that took place since 2008 and culminated between 2019-2021, worldwide events emphasized the importance of freedom, how dangerous it is to take it for granted, acceptance and tolerance. Do you still want to ‘fit in’, just for the sake of it?
Have a happy transition to 2022!
If you remember anything from this read, adhere this to your mind. Last July and August, we respectively experienced two Full Moons in freedom loving Aquarius. Think of these moments in time, as a Maverick, the wave that you can ride until March 2023. This wave’s undertow, basically its strength, is the understanding of the value of freedom and the danger in taking it for granted. This December stop holding on so tight; set love free. If it flies back to you after January 15 or February 3rd, you may have moved on! If you want to give it one more chance, try to hold off until after February 3.. Same applies to a project or business venture. If you have to start over, just do it. The only thing to keep from the past, is lessons learned. Apply your experience and skills to your new dream. Do you tend to call the end of a marriage, relationship, business or business partnership, a failure? This is self-torture! What hasn’t worked so far, is not a failure, it is a step. The step towards your success story. Keep walking. Let go of anyone or anything that holds you back, enjoy the holidays and have a prosperous New Year.
| December 1-13: | January 1-14: |
| You feel mentally adventurous and impatient, while your physical energy is intense, the first week of the month. Being over-zealous or over-optimistic can set you back the second half of the month and well into January, so use the first 13 days to tie up loose ends at work, legal issues, have the conversation with a loved one (play nice) and in some cases, (consult a specialist), shift some investments around, perhaps on the safer side. Exercise and enjoy moments of passion. Try not to get too carried away by holiday shopping, rather the holiday spirit! You will need your nest egg around January 12 or February 2/3rd. Need to satisfy a surge of generosity December 1-9? There are plenty of people or animals in need, that can use your practical help and warm season spirit. Be alert on all levels on the 10th, deception reigns supreme, in both the cyber and physical world. Did you put your personal life or development, or both, on hold recently? Did sudden changes dishevel you in October?/ You are getting a needed jump-start after the 10th! You feel things deeply in love and business 11 to 14; trust your ‘gut’. | The 1st day of the New Year may be spilled over by the December 24-29 tension, yet there is an optimistic thrust, invigoration and openness to revolutionary ideas. Delayed plans or disruption caused in October/November, are back in motion and you begin to tick your boxes.The planetary aspects help us balance fun and adventure, with sensibility. Dreams can become a reality, if you keep impulse and daydreaming, in check. Dried out partnerships, personal and business, are fertilized by creativity and compassion on the 6th. Take advantage of the first two weeks, for drafting plans, contracts, putting your signature on paper, book a holiday, travel, as telecom planetary specialist, Mercury, turns retrograde on January 15 until February 3. Protect yourself from deception, electricity, electrified behavior or conditions January 13-16. |

Venus is well aspected to Mars 1-13, closer on 1-9; get close with that special someone. On the 10th Neptune squares Mercury and the Sun on the 12th. Look out for deceit, more so with signatures!

It affects us all, but mostly the mutable signs, Gemini (birthday May 29-June 6), Virgo (birthday August 31-September 8), Sagittarius (birthday November 30-December 7) and Pisces (birthday February 27-March 6) or people with points to your chart here**. Instead of giving in to taking the easy way out or being impatient, focus on nurturing your higher mind, getting your power back and leap out of your comfort zone. Stay emotionally connected and ‘dip your tongue’ in your mind, before you speak. You will thrive, when your mind stays as open as your heart and this wave will carry you well into the new year.

Instead of giving in to pessimism and grudging, focus on nurturing your soul, apply your practical skills and use your humor.

Better yet, go outside your family and look at the whole planet as an extension of your own family. You will thrive, by being prudent and patient, as this wave will carry you well into the coming year.
**when referring to ‘people with points to your chart here’, you may not be one of the above Sun signs but you may have enough ‘pieces’ of these signs in your birth chart and may even be equally blessed!
| December 13-19: | January 15-19: |
| On the 14th of December the mental and physical energies flip; your thought process becomes steadier, instead of impatient and the physical stamina becomes more adventurous and less intense. Take care not to become too emotionally or mentally rigid until January 2 and after the 25th, or physically reckless until January 24. Handling high end contracts? Better deals between December 1st to January 11-14. The intellectual, curious, albeit flaky, Full Moon on the 18th, colors these days; use its mental curiosity and sharpness to close a deal or captivate your audience. Avoid being two-timing. Forward motion in our endeavors, when tamed, gives our plans solid foundations. | On the 16th you can exert power from deep within you, so use the period of possible delays, December 20 to January 29, to regroup. Perhaps you missed an important detail and this makes any temporary blockage, a blessing in disguise. May the force be with you and it can be, if you use intense energy wisely. There is an emotional, nurturing, albeit ‘crabby’ Full Moon on the 17th. It connects us to deep emotions but deep wounds as well. Do not allow exaggeration to sway you. This is an excellent time to set these feelings free. Were your plans, a new love affair or work project abruptly paused end of August, September? Get ready to hit the restart button after January 18 or February 7, depending on your chart. |
| For the astrology aficionados, Venus still conjuncts Pluto on the 14th, the heat is on. Mercury enters practical Capricorn on the 14th. Mars is well aspected to Saturn, in sextile December 29-30, setting foundations to your plans. The Full Moon on the 18th squares Neptune but trines expansive Jupiter. | For the astrology aficionados, use the force wisely on the 16th, as the Sun conjuncts Pluto but Mercury squares Uranus. Don”t be swayed by the Full Moon on the 17th, as it opposes Pluto but happily Uranus turns direct on the 19th! |
There is a Full Moon on December 18 at 27 degrees 29′ Gemini. It affects us all, but mostly the mutable signs, Gemini (birthday June 13-21), Virgo (birthday September 15-23), Sagittarius (birthday December 13-21) and Pisces (birthday March 13-21) or people with points to your chart here**. Instead of giving in to flightiness and gossip, focus on expressing yourself freely, yet from a higher plane and adopt a childlike (not childish) curiosity for life. Stay emotionally connected, as too much mental stimulation can disassociate you from your feelings. You will thrive, when you use mental curiosity and sharpness to close a deal or captivate your audience. This stimulating and expressive wave, will carry you well into the new year.
There is a Full Moon on January 17, at 27 degrees 51′ Cancer. It affects us all, but mostly the cardinal sings, Aries (birthday April 12-20), Cancer (July 12-20), Libra (October 14-22), Capricorn (January 14-22) or people with points to your chart here**.

You will thrive, as this nurturing, fertile and sentimental wave will carry you well into the coming year.
**when referring to ‘people with points to your chart here’, you may not be one of the above Sun signs but you may have enough ‘pieces’ of these signs in your birth chart and may even be equally blessed!
The Full Moon on January 17 is also called, 
the Wolf Moon. Wolves are protective, nurturing, intelligent, with strong social ties. The wolves can teach us. Can we learn?
| December 20-January 2: | January 20-31: |
| Enjoy life, but do take a back seat with love, hold your tongue and your wallet, December 20 to January 29. Why? Either with love or money issues, things are not what they seem. Being impatient and pushy can tip the scales against you. So can an over-suspicious behavior. So slow down, give the benefit of the doubt and allow circumstances to prove you right or wrong. It is the truth that you seek after all, right? Work on or use, an innovative idea on the 21st and present it by the 23rd. Good news arrive from the wires. Keep the peace in your home life and relationship but don’t sacrifice your freedom in the process, December 24-29! Expansive Jupiter is here to help, as it enters altruistic Pisces on the 29th. From December 24 to January 1st, the surrounding energy is infused with desire for freedom, humanism, determination, original minds and stubbornness. The challenge here lies in the following polarity; originality vs need to fit in. ”Originality” denotes a sense of freedom that we are told comes at a cost. Being alone. Hmm. On the other hand, when we try to ”fit in”, we may not be physically alone, but we can feel extremely lonely. You choose. That is the beauty of freedom after all. The point too. Talk to your significant other/associate about love/money on the 29th (gently) and solve an issue with a male (brother, father, boss) on the 29/30th. Keep the passion, toss the tension on the 30th. Happy New Year! | Hello eccentric, freedom loving, innovative and stubborn Aquarius! The Sun enters this exciting zodiac sign on the 20th and conjuncts Mercury on the 23rd; each passing day is a step towards the Sun-Saturn conjunction on February 4. Translation? If you feel your battery draining, step back from the situation at hand and regroup, go over the fine print and allow yourself time to re-charge. This is important, if you want to maintain stability and prosperity for the new year. Erratic behavior, not listening to an other’s point of view or think you know it all, will most definitely not help you bring your plans to fruition. If you have joint issues, get a new, compatible to your body type, work out regime. There can also be innovative technological discoveries here; if you are involved in such endeavors, remember that the more emotionally connected you are, the better the outcome of your plans will be. Love and money matters begin to get back on track after the 23rd for some but mostly after the 30th and into February. |
| For the astrology aficionados, Venus turns retrograde on the 20th. Be cautious with love and money. Mercury trines Uranus on the 21st, a great idea or news are well received. The Sun enters earthy, ambitious and hard Capricorn on the 22nd. Saturn squares Uranus, exact square 24-29! Make peace at home but protect your freedom. Creativity and compassion surge on the 26/27, as Mercury sextiles Neptune. Talk to your significant other/associate about love/money on the 29th (gently) with Mercury conjunct Venus and solve an issue with a male (brother, father, boss) as Mars sextiles Saturn on the 29/30th. Expansive Jupiter is here to help, as it enters altruistic Pisces on the 29th. Keep the passion, toss the tension on the 30th, with Mercury conjunct Pluto. | For the astrology aficionados, the Sun on the 20th enters open minded Aquarius and conjuncts Mercury on the 23rd. These aspects can balance out the earthy, conservative energy, when Mars enters ambitious Capricorn on the 25th and a retrograde Mercury on the 26th. Venus, also in retrograde, is well aspected to Uranus, January 23-31. Better news in love and money after the 30th, as she turns direct. The Jupiter positive aspect to Uranus strengthens as the month progresses and will sextile in February. |
Astro Tip for the Mutable zodiac family (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces or people with points to your charts here); the North Node (Karmic evolution) is Retrograde during both months (except on July 2-6, and 18-20 and on January 10-12 and 26-27 ) at 1 to 0 degrees Gemini, until January 18. Collect good Karma, and do not take the easy way out, especially if you are a political leader with your Sun/Ascendant or points to your chart here, on Gemini/Pisces primarily.

Aries
| Happy December-January Aries! | Happy New Year Aries! |
| Male, penetrating energy, comes from Mars, your ruler. In December Mars*** is in your zone of investments until the 13th and enters your zone of expansion on the 14th until January 24. It enters your accomplishment zone on the 25th until March 6! | Female, receptive energy, comes from Venus. Venus*** is in your success story zone until March 6! It does turn retrograde December 20 to January 30. |
| December 2021 | January 2022 |
| You are the first zodiac sign dear Aries, you are the love child of Aris ((Mars, your ruler), god of war and you hate loosing. So you want to PUSH; everything and everyone, either to move forward or out of your way. The time frame between the New Moon on December 4, which trines your Sun and the Full Moon on the 17th, which sextiles your Sun, give you space and the opportunities you need, to do just that! You are making deals with people out of your borders, upgrading your skills, better your work or study method and expanding in all levels. On the second fortnight, you focus on presentations, contracts and your children. Enjoy the holidays between December 24-26, be firm but not argumentative with a love or business partner, from the 27 to 31st. Use your momentum to promote your brilliant ideas and please do your best to not trump over innocent bystanders… Glad you are back full throttle! | The New Year begins with a combination of good news, getting your plans (business, education, legal affairs) to move forward and small delays. On January 2, more so if your birthday is March 30-April 7, instead of giving in to pessimism and grudging, focus on nurturing your soul (exercise), apply your practical skills and use your humor. You will thrive, by being prudent and patient, as this wave will carry you well into the new year. Take advantage of the first fortnight, to go over contract details or double check information. After January 2, 14, (around the 17 if your birthday is April 12-20) depending on your personal chart, any delay until February 3 is short lived but very crucial, in the sense that it protects you from a detail you missed or yourself (your over the top behavior). As February and/or May roll in, you are unstoppable. |
Your gift for 2022? 
Success; because you can be polite. Your quick sand for 2022? 
To think you are always right.
Taurus
| Happy December-January Taurus! | Happy New Year Taurus! |
| Male, penetrating energy, comes from Mars. In December Mars*** is in your zone of partnership until the 13th and enters your zone of investments on the 14th until January 24. It enters your expansion zone on the 25th until March 6! | Female, receptive energy, comes from your ruler, Venus. Venus*** is in your expansion zone until March 6! It does turn retrograde December 20 to January 29. |
| December 2021 | January 2022 |
| You are the second zodiac sign dear Taurus, you are the love child of the goddess of love, money and art, Aphrodite (Venus, your ruler) and you hate inconsistency. Your innate sense of stability and security has been shaken to the core; the great news here is that you can now proudly pat yourself on the back, for standing on your own two feet and setting the bar high in love. The time frame December 4 to 19, will benefit you financially and you can begin to successfully tick things off your list (more so May 13-21 Bulls). It is not big pay off time yet, but you are off to a good start. Use the December 24- January 2, to enjoy the holidays (stay thrifty, not stingy) but also to put together the first phase of an important deal or project on the 29th (yes, just before the year ends, more so April Bulls). If you are looking to expand or move but are delayed between December 20 to January 25, you are in luck, as either after January 23, 26 or 29, you will make a better deal or find a better space to move to. | Happy New Year dear Taurus! This very important year for you, (as satisfaction in both love and your career will be under the positive Jupiter spell), begins with an overseas opportunity around the 2nd. This can apply both to love, a visit from a potential partner or a boost/great news, in your accomplishments zone, until the 14th of January. However, if by the 17th you feel more like ‘close but no cigar’, don’t loose your faith now, as even this short lived delay, is a blessing in disguise. Instead of giving in to tension, focus on nurturing your soul and connect to your body. Stay tenacious, emotionally connected but not dependent and let deep feelings, connected to old wounds, go. You will thrive, as this nurturing, fertile and prosperous wave, will carry you well into the new year. Venus, your ruling planet, may be retrograde until the 29th, but with so many positive aspects, you could begin to see the above mentioned benefits after January 23rd, by February 14 or March 6, depending on your chart. You are infamous for your patience and trust me, this is where it will pay off handsomely. |
Astro tip for Bulls; Uranus, in retrograde, jolts you into unexpected outbursts. April 30 – May 1 Tauruses, do not succumb to erratic behavior. Eliminate toxic habits/presence from your life.
Your gift for 2022? Expansion; because you can be generous. Your quick sand for 2022? To dig your heels to the ground.
Gemini
| Happy December-January Gemini! | Happy New Year Gemini! |
| Male, penetrating energy, comes from Mars. In December Mars*** is in your zone of daily routine until the 13th and enters your zone of partnerships on the 14th until January 24. It enters your investments zone on the 25th until March 6! | Female, receptive energy, comes from Venus. Venus*** is in your investments zone until March 6! It does turn retrograde December 20 to January 29. |
| December 2021 | January 2022 |
| You are the third zodiac sign dear Gemini, the duality that understands both sides, like your father Hermes, messenger to the gods (Mercury, your ruler). December is traditionally a holiday month, full of spirituality but also consumption. This year you are more preoccupied with your nutrition and overall well being until the 13th, which is just as well. Your routine gets interrupted on the 4th, as a personal/marriage or business partnership issue surfaces. If your birthday is May 29-June 6, don’t take the easy way out or be impatient. Leap out of your comfort zone, focus on nurturing your higher mind and get your power back. Stay emotionally connected and ‘dip your tongue’ in your mind, before you speak, because this issue resurfaces December 14 to January 24. You will thrive, when your mind stays as open as your heart and this wave will carry you well into the new year. This mature behavior will not only help you put your love situation (whether single or not) in place but an investment matter as well, after the Full Moon on December 18 in your sign (birthday June 13-21)! | Definitely welcome the New Year, dearest Twins! Take advantage of the 2nd day of the new year and/or the first fortnight to make a deal, business or personal, take a trip or reinvest part of your money. Make it a prosperous year (especially after May 11), by minding a couple of gaps, one during January 15 to February 4; here you must avoid signing anything (more so close to the 17th), and if you have to, you get a third opinion (Mercury, your ruler, is retrograde)! The other gap is between December 20 to January 29, as only a mature attitude towards love and money, can positively affect not only your current, but future endeavors as well. |
Your gift for 2022? Investments pay off; because you can be mature. Your quick sand for 2022? To be tricky.
Cancer
| Happy December-January Cancer! | Happy New Year Cancer! |
| Male, penetrating energy, comes from Mars. In December Mars*** is in your zone of love affairs until the 13th and enters your zone of daily routine on the 14th until January 24. It enters your marriage zone on the 25th until March 6! | Female, receptive energy, comes from Venus. Venus*** is in your marriage/partnership zone until March 6! It does turn retrograde December 20 to January 29. |
| December 2021 | January 2022 |
| You are the fourth zodiac sign dear Cancer, intuitive and magnetic like your mother Selini (the Moon, your ruler). You are busy thinking about, or dealing with, affairs of the heart dear crab. Whether you want to get married, divorced or move to the next level in an existing affair, you will pause around the 4th, to organize your environment, work or home and continue to contemplate those personal issues until mid December. It is more than o.k. to retract in your shell around the 18th, to reboot and fix what needs to be fixed, within your psyche; you need to set yourself free. Why is the timing here more important that before? Because on and after Christmas day, all the way through to March, life can bring you the love you have craved, for a while. The trick here is for you to make room for it; if your memory box is full with past junk, where exactly can your new love squeeze in? | Happy New Year and happy birthday dear Crab. No, this is not a typo; it may not be your actual birthday, but it will feel like it after February 3 and well into March. The seed will be planted on or around, January 2 (June birthday) and 17, (July birthday). Be compassionate on the 6th. What to do in January? Tap in the optimistic energy and be open to revolutionary ideas. Why? A tempting business offer is on the table; you can put your signature by the 14th. Uncertain? Wait until after February 3rd and triple check, again, all the information, as telecom planetary specialist, Mercury, turns retrograde on January 15 until February 3. Protect yourself from deception, electricity, electrified behavior or conditions January 13-16. Delayed plans or disruption caused in October/November, are back in motion and you begin to tick your boxes. Dreams can become a reality, if you keep the balance between impulse and daydreaming. Take advantage of the first two weeks to book a holiday, travel and don’t forget to enjoy! |
Your gift for 2022? Love+money; you are compassionate. Your quick sand for 2022? To be self absorbed.
Leo
| Happy December-January Leo! | Happy Happy New Year Leo! |
| Male, penetrating energy, comes from Mars. In December Mars*** is in your zone of family until the 13th and enters your zone of love affair on the 14th until January 24. It enters your daily routine zone on the 25th until March 6! | Female, receptive energy, comes from Venus. Venus*** is in your daily routine, hobbies and work environment zone until March 6! It does turn retrograde December 20 to January 29. |
| December 2021 | January 2022 |
| You are the fifth sign dear Leo, the offspring of the life giving Helios (Sun). You are life’s creative force and you can be fixed in your beliefs. Between injustice done to you and by you, due to your ego, the end of November finds you in a better financial position but definitely not where you deserve to be. I hope, whether in regards to love or your work, 2021 has been a year of lessons learned. Not just because this will secure your future, but you definitely don’t want to miss out on a creative project, a love affair, mending your relationship with your significant other, or a family member/child, on or after December 4. Between the 4th and the 18th, a trusted friend or social network can be the support system you need. Support in time of need is priceless. Want to make the most of the new year approaching and beat it to the punch? Start now, a healthier mental and physical lifestyle. A new artistic hobby, like the theater, can make the world of difference. | A fresh, new you, can enjoy the beginning of an exciting new year, that can bring positive developments in emotional and practical matters, that troubled you around August 8, when you had a chance to put matters in order, even in part. Now, January 3 to 14, you can make a fresh start in an important relationship and strike a new deal or accept a job offer, with great potential (to begin after February 3 or March 6). You can also plan a quick get away. Don’t force the above issues December 20 to January 29., rather nurture them and allow them room to grow. Take advantage of the communication and activity pause(Mercury retrograde) between January 15 to February 3, to go over the fine print, pick up a hobby or new artistic activity and allow yourself some needed TLC. Breathe. This year holds a lot of promise, especially after this Spring. |
Your gift for 2022? Quality of life; you are magnanimous. Your quick sand for 2022? A misplaced pride.
Virgo
| Happy December-January Virgo! | Happy New Year Virgo! |
| Male, penetrating energy, comes from Mars. In December Mars*** is in your zone of communication until the 13th and enters your zone of family on the 14th until January 24. It enters your love affairs zone on the 25th until March 6! | Female, receptive energy, comes from Venus. Venus*** is in your love affairs, creativity and children zone until March 6! It does turn retrograde December 20 to January 29. |
| December 2021 | January 2022 |
| You are the sixth sign of the zodiac dear Virgo, daughter of Zeus and lover of communication. As such, you will enjoy both, the fun chatter and the serious talk, until the 13th of December. If you are looking for the courage to speak up to a lover, partner or boss, this is the time to do it. Do mind your choice of words on the 4th (more so if your birthday is August 31-September 8); if you are too caustic, your humor will not be able to bale you out of this one. Family issues or your sense of belonging, can be a challenge during Christmas and well into January 24. If you are dealing with such matters, the time frame December 13-20 can be fertile for such discussion or contemplation. If you find yourself, like many of us do, too busy or overwhelmed, as this happens to be the holiday season, use the first 3 weeks of January to think things over. Events that organically unfold on January 2nd will help you get a clearer picture. Meanwhile, there is a positive development on the professional section on or around December 17th. Not exactly what you had hoped for? Hit the pause button, enjoy yourself and get back to the drawing board end of January. Time is on your side. | Happy New Year Virgo! January is a pliable month for you, in the sense that you can shape it, based on the choices you make. I will keep this simple for you; As your primary focus shifts towards family, children or sense of belonging issues, you can either draw the line and protect your space from intrusion (recommended) or you could continue allowing such matters to be your ‘ball and chain’ (not recommended). This new year carries for you a promise of true love and professional development. I would hate to watch you miss out on these great gifts of life, after February 3 or March 6, because you are stuck in the past. Take advantage of the communication and activity pause, (as your ruling planet, Mercury, turns retrograde between January 15 to February 3), to go over the fine print, look out for your keys, paperwork, ids, pick up a hobby or new artistic activity and allow yourself some needed TLC. Lucky and expansive Jupiter, sprinkles stardust on your marriage-partnership sector all year! Don’t miss out! |
Your gift for 2022? Luck in expansion/overseas. You are charming. Your quick sand for 2022? A bitter attitude.
Libra

| December 2021 | January 2022 |
| You are the seventh sign Libra, a true child of Venus with love for love, art and money. ‘Love and marriage/partnerships’, is usually your favorite pass time but this month, focus on putting a property matter in order, before the 20th, preferably. You are on the phone, online, drawing contracts or about to make a business deal on or around the 4th (more so if your birthday is September 30-October 8). Not sure? Get back to the drawing board and present your work again, on or around the 17th. A short trip here can rejuvenate you. So can a seminar to upgrade your knowledge in your field. You love to chat. Make sure you use your humor and not attention seeking methods, to get what you need out of any situation, especially since your ruler, Venus turns retrograde December 20 to January 29. Try not to overspend, you’ll need your nest-egg January 2-18. You are innately graceful and this will work best for you. | Happy New Year dear Aerialist, happier after the 3rd. Did those pesky family issues give you a headache until January 2? Use your sharp mental skills, between January 3 to 13, to tackle what needs tackling. Although your ruler Venus, is retrograde until the 29th, (meaning you must take it easy with love and how you handle finances), this time frame, can be, to an extent, very productive. Book a holiday, organize your office, paperwork, contract agreements, before the 15th, as communications expert Mercury goes haywire, (turns retrograde), until February 3. During the Full Moon on January 17, (birthday October 14-22), A surprise can emerge for a love or business matter. If you feel tension, don’t nag, focus on nurturing your body. Stay emotionally connected but not dependent. You will be up and running sooner than you think. Single? Not after this Spring, Autumn in the southern hemisphere. |
Your gift for 2022? New love, work offer, new you! Stay graceful. Your quick sand for 2022? Out of control behavior.

| You are the eighth zodiac sign dear Scorpio, a child of transformative Pluto and the ultimate truth seeker. This month is all about you wrapping up personal, wellness matters and the new image you wish to project in 2022. Between December 4-18, your focus is on issues of material safety, investments, inheritance and possibly secrets connected to such issues. With the planet of love and money in retrograde motion after the 20th, slow down the pace and enjoy a creative project, the holiday season. Compassion is the secret ingredient of your new, magnetic self; so you can attract prosperity and happiness, especially after the end of this month and well into the new year. With only this in your mind, talk to your significant other/associate about love/money on the 29th (gently) and solve an issue with a male (brother, father, boss) on the 29/30th. The zodiac Santa-Claus arrives at your door on December 28, (lucky Jupiter trines your Sun until May 11!). | Happy New Year stinger! On the 2nd day of the new year, your mental strength is strong enough for you to tackle the issues that may still be pending form the last 10 days of December, in case you were not able to wrap them up. Signing contracts, agreements, booking holiday best done before the 15th or after February 3. Along with the beautiful Jupiter trine to your Sun, the Full Moon on the 17th, also trines your Sun and you are able to focus on nurturing your soul, mind, and those in need. Connect to your body, a water sport or activity will do wonders. Stay emotionally connected but not dependent (toxic people, habits or substances) and let deep feelings, connected to wounds, go. You will thrive, as this nurturing, fertile and sentimental wave will carry you well into 2022. |
(*)Uranus opposes your Sun (birthday November 2-3). In direct motion the unexpected is something you can handle. As you do not like surprises, do your homework on issues you do not want to be blindsided by. Or accept that we can not control everything.
Your gift for 2022? New, sparkling life! Stay compassionate. Your quick sand for 2022? Holding a grudge.

| You are the ninth sign dear Sagittarius, the zodiac explorer, like the true child of Zeus (Jupiter) would be. Well, aren’t you the star of the show! A chance to redirect your life’s path and vision after the 4th, (more so if your birthday is November 30-December 7) is in the cards, so focus on nurturing your higher mind, getting your power back and leap out of your comfort zone (shockingly, many ‘Sagis’ have stagnated). Stay emotionally connected and ‘dip your tongue’ in your mind, before you speak. After the 14tth, your energy levels peak, to January 24. This is a momentum you don’t want to miss, but take care to not loose your self control! You will thrive, when your heart stays as open as your mind and this wave will carry you well into the new year. On the 17th, a great offer is on the table (more so if your birthday is December 13-21). Listen to your ‘gut’; if anything seems off, between December 20 to February 3, you cross your i’s and dot your t’s. Family matters are on your agenda from December 29 to May 11. Follow your heart. | Happy New year dear Archer! On, or near, the 2nd you receive news in the form of opportunity regarding a property investment. Is it ? Use the first January fortnight to go over the contract, deeds or any paperwork. A job offer is on the table too. Great. Will it be a fortuitous for you? Apply the same investigative work, as above. Know that the money offer made to you, is low balled, so do not allow insecurity or even desperation, to make a hasty choice, for you. You probably don’t want to sign between January 15 to February 3, unless you have consulted a specialist, got a second opinion, trust your instinct, you get the idea… What about Love? Instead of forcing the issue, keep an open heart and be patient (your strong point-ha!), December 20 to January 29. Allow your love story to unfold organically. You may be pleasantly surprised. |
Your gift for 2022? Open horizons! Stay compassionate. Your quick sand for 2022? Being forceful with love and family.

How to maximize your good fortune? Look to your social network, to get all the assistance you need, to wrap up your affairs until the 13th.

Give yourself an ‘A’ for effort, as you wrap contracts/agreements up, until the 13th, even if your project is not yet complete. Look to your trusted social network for input and support, December 14 to January 24. How will you spend Christmas and the last week of the year? Assessing all your hard work so far, filing what needs keeping and tossing the junk. This includes attachment to old wounds. From December 29 to May 11, you put practical matters in order. This translates to security and money. Well done. What about love? Don’t push the issue after December 20 to January 29. Why? You will understand, as you read January 2022. | Happy birthday and happy new year dear cup bearer to the gods! Your thoughts are deep on January 2nd; this is healthy, if you are assessing 2021 leftovers, (eating too) connecting to your spiritual side and planning your new strategy. However, if those deep feelings are weighing you down, guess what; yes, drop them, like the weight that they are. How? Your social network/trusted friend, has a great idea. Listen to it. Use the first January fortnight to plan a vacation, make an agreement or accept a new position. Still not sure? Wait until after February 3, when communication is restored.

Here it is dear ‘Fishes’, the beginning of a new, 12 year life cycle on December 29, as the mighty, generous and expansive Jupiter (your old ruler) enters your sign until May 11! Yes, this is a very lucky aspect indeed. How to maximize this positive energy? Around December 4, a business deal, one that you have worked on for a long time, can come together. If the offer at hand seems too low, don’t fall for it. Go over it all and stick to your final offer/request. Your social network or a trusted friend will have a sharp suggestion; don’t drive over it, listen to them. On the 17th a family issue can throw you off balance or in some cases, a family member can help. Either way, after December 20th, it may be a good time to catch your breath and, like the altruistic sign that you are, get into the spirit of things. Don’t push money and love matters until January 29. Why? Read January 2022 and you will understand. | Happy new year or should I say, happy new life, dear Pisces! As you read, on December 29, Jupiter entered your sign, bringing stardust your way. It does take a transit like this a few days or weeks to be felt on a tangible level. What to do until February 3? Use the first 15 days of January to organize your affairs, go over those contracts again and make the deal, if all is well. Is your intuition telling you otherwise? Don’t sign anything between January 15 to February 3. Protect an original idea or discovery from social media, during this time, as well. How you connect to people or groups will impact your affairs. Stay truthful but not too trusting. Avoid gossip or taking the easy way out. Your rewards are just a few days away. Did you manage to not get pushy with love or money matters from December 20?? After January 29, it will all begin to come together, organically. Aren’t you glad you were patient, clever but transparent? Have a prosperous year dear Pisces. |

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.” Albert Einstein
