If there’s one thing about astrology that everyone has heard of, it’s a Mercury retrograde. Heads up, the next one starts on Tuesday night and will run through June 3rd. If there’s one thing that Jupiter is renowned for, it’s largesse. One of everything simply won’t do for the planet of plenty. Fittingly, Jupiter will be sharing Tuesday night’s spotlight with Mercury as they both undergo important changes.

Two notable alignments will take place during the next two weeks.

Revelations from their meeting and the full Moon, at 27 Cancer 18 on the 17th, can certainly shed more light. Some insights may arrive earlier, when the big dreams conjured by a Sun Neptune sextile on the 10th are scrutinized by a Mars Neptune square the following day. Also putting in their two cents in on the 11th, the Taurus Moon will conjoin Uranus before trining Venus. This combo is more than capable of delivering strokes of genius with real world applications. But if lightning fails to strike, Mercury will help with revisions and the Sun will begin offering ingenuity on the 19th when it enters Aquarius. So, relax, there is still plenty of time to get plans for 2022 on track.
Forecast Dec 13-31, 2021: Living The Dream
2021 has familiarized everyone with the essence of the Saturn Uranus squares in fixed signs. Even after December 24th’s final exact square, Saturn and Uranus will remain in tight alignment for much of 2022. Additionally the eclipses and node shifts into Taurus and Scorpio will apply more pressure to the fixed signs. That said, for beleaguered Tauruses, Leos, Scorpios and Aquariuses, with yet another year of obstacles ahead of them, some relief is in sight. On December 28th Jupiter will stop inflating tensions when it exits Aquarius and re-enters Pisces.
