Freedom is on the horizon.

We go into the New year with Jupiter in Pisces. Jupiter, the planet of expansion, good fortune, and abundance, is very powerful in the sign of Pisces. The New year starts with the sense of shaking off a huge grey shadow. The oppressive pain and sorrow that many have endured over the last two years are lifting. A new canvas saturated with color is emerging. Unfortunately, life isn’t all champagne and roses. But, 2022 shows the promise of a fresh new start.

In this article, we will do a deep dive into the New Moon in Capricorn along with other planetary aspects in January. We will also look at how Uranus will surprise us at the New Moon.

The New Moon in Capricorn.

Capricorn is a cardinal, earth sign. It is ambitious, practical, determined, serious, and goal-oriented. On January 2, 2022, the New Moon in Capricorn will represent a new beginning. A serious sense of determination to put a plan of action in place will surface. It would be helpful to see where you will receive this energy. Do you know where Capricorn is in your chart?

Ask yourself the following questions:

• What and who am I responsible for?
• How can I fulfill my responsibilities in a practical yet fruitful way?
• What do I love to do?

What does Uranus bring to the party?

There has been a recurring theme all year of the challenge between Uranus and Saturn.

Uranus is the maverick planet that doesn’t like authority. It wants the freedom to stretch its imagination. But Saturn is the authority and wants to restrict, govern, and control. This planetary interaction has played out through 2021, with mandates and travel restrictions. New rules and regulations have bogged us down, and many businesses have closed under the pressure. Now, Saturn has had the upper hand all year, but that is about to change!

As Uranus escapes Saturn’s grip, it moves on to a positive influence over the New Moon in Capricorn. It might cause dramatic fluctuations in cryptocurrencies, the stock market, or innovative progress in agriculture.

Uranus represents an opportunity that comes with a risk of some sort. It’s daring, exciting yet unstable. You may get a surprise opportunity or suddenly lose a job or a partner. Uranus shakes things up but usually for the better. However, the influence on the New Moon is positive, so you will likely get a welcome surprise. A closer look at your natal chart will determine how Uranus will affect you at this New Moon.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the Sun’s positive impact on Uranus before the New Moon on December 1. Something novel and exciting is coming through for sure.

Secrets revealed!

Pluto and Venus are dancing back and forth in the sky. Venus retrograde passing Pluto again indicates that something is coming up for you. You may have thought that it was done and over. There’s a tendency to fall into fear mode, but keep in mind that you have experience with this matter. This time around, you will have the chance to handle it in a whole new way.

Retrogrades are about revisiting, reviewing, reassessing, and reworking. With Pluto involved, there will be a transformation. Perhaps it will be about how you communicate or relate to others. It will be about finding the power within to express yourself authentically.

The urge to evaluate relationships, beliefs and values will be prevalent.

The urge to evaluate relationships, beliefs and values will be prevalent.

You might ask yourself:

• What have I believed and is that still true today?
• Do I trust my partner, friend, or colleague?
• Do I trust the media?
• Is my partner committed to our relationship?
• Am I committed to my partner?
• Who can I trust?
• Can I trust myself?

Obsessive focus on relationships or financial matters are likely with Pluto at play.

Whatever you are working through, it’s vital to remain solution-oriented. At first, it may feel out of your control, but you will find the power to push through. It may not be a quick-fix scenario, but it will come with a new perspective and logically handling it.

My final thoughts.

Venus will be in Capricorn for four months when she usually stays in a sign for four weeks!

Use the space to rethink, restructure and rework whatever comes up for you. Capricorn is about goal setting and slowly working towards that goal. Uranus will want you to dream big and go for it impulsively, but your dream won’t succeed without a plan.

Ask yourself:

• What is my dream?
• What is my goal?
• Is it realistic?
• How can I achieve it?

Look for the power inside to change your narrative. Remember to remain courageous and face any fears that come up. Resist the inclination to take things personally. Capricorn should help you to handle things logically.

When a planet is in retrograde, it is best to reassess the situation. Face your fears, and address whatever you have neglected or haven’t dared to face before.

If you are a super-sensitive person who finds it hard to speak out, this energy will give you the power to express your vulnerabilities. It will become easier if you practice speaking out and asking for what you need. Remember not to take on too much. Carve out time to rest and use this fantastic opportunity to heal.

I wish you all a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year!
