I hope you have a great holiday season! The universe is giving you the gift of reflection this week. The ability to reflect on the year that has been 2022 and what you hope to be in 2023.
Mercury goes retrograde in the sign of Capricorn on December 29 at 4:32 am and is in retrograde through January 18. You may already be feeling the impact of Mercury stationing going retrograde. It tends to start having an effect a couple of weeks before it’s the official station. Shortly after Mercury stations retrograde it has a meeting (conjunction) with Venus in Capricorn at 8:58 am. These are the only two planetary meetings this week, everything else is based on the moon which changes every 2 or so days.
As we close out the year 2022, Mercury, Mars, and Uranus will still be retrograde. These planets are emphasizing the need for reflection as the year closes out. The sign of Capricorn has provided you with many structural changes in your life over the last few years and Pluto is nearing the end of its cycle through the sign of Capricorn, which will start the shift into Aquarius in 2023. What have you built since 2009? Is it structurally sound or does it still need some changes?
As humans, we have a tendency to spend a lot of time in the past and the future and not as much time as we should in the present moment, but in this case, the universe wants you to look back and remember. Look at where you were and how far you’ve come. Looking back may sometimes be painful, but it doesn’t have to be. It could be an opportunity to remember where you’ve come from and who you are. You’re not the same person that you were at the start of 2022. You change, you move on. It’s easy to think of change as a bad thing, but it doesn’t have to be, it can just be change. Life would be boring if it was the same thing every day.
You were sent here to learn. Winston Churchill paraphrased that those who fail to learn from history are condemned to repeat it. Don’t be one of those people. Take this week and look back on your history and be ready to move into 2023 with a clean slate.
