I find it interesting that solar calendars end before the Sun traverses through the entire Zodiac. But it should be noted that the ancient Mesopotamians’ new year coincided with the Sun entering Aries in the spring. I bring this all up because we have two inner planets in retrograde this month, Venus, which turned last month, and Mercury during the middle of the month. Retrograde periods bring back issues of the past. In January we are hit with a double whammy of people and situations we would rather leave in 2021 coming into 2022 with us. I remember watching something where a person said they heard that the energy of a year lingers for months after we are in a new year. It was related to numerology, and I wonder if this is true. In January, it may feel like that, that 2021 is lingering. Indeed, we will have to retread some things that we have experienced and likely didn’t finish or learn from in prior months. As we do all that, Uranus will turn direct!

By the middle of January, all of the outer planets will be direct. I think this symbolizes big things will start to be set in motion. What these things are depends on the planets. Pluto is digging up the dark, taboo things governments and high-power people have been hiding. We have been seeing some of this such as with the Ghislaine Maxwell sex trafficking trial and Britney Spears’s conservatorship finally ending just to name a couple high profile legal battles. We have also seen a lot of striking in the U.S. and a push for better working conditions across all industries.

For Neptune in Pisces…I’m not sure. I’m not sure if people are becoming more spiritually in tuned or coming into some sort of psychic ability. I think we have seen more of the malefic side of Neptune where messages and communication are very confusing and vague. We will have to wait and see how Jupiter conjuncting it will play out. In many ways, this conjunction is a bit bad lol. Jupiter expands everything it touches, and with it domicile in Pisces and moving towards Neptune, we can either see mass delusion and disillusionment or mass enlightenment and spiritual awakenings. It just all depends.

Uranus in Taurus, I have argued, is teaming up with Pluto in Capricorn to disrupt things that no longer serve us. While Pluto reveals, Uranus uproots. Pluto kills things very slowly, almost like decomposition whereas Uranus just explodes and shatters. Together we are seeing just how ineffectual our ways of governance are and how the Earth is rapidly changing for the worse.

All of these forces are direct and are going to be a bit potent until we enter Aries as the inner planets are transiting Capricorn into Aquarius, highlighting these planets even more as they will aspect each one in some way.

Besides this, I don’t have much to add. On Instagram I listed which transits I would consider easier and harder depending on the sign. I don’t know how I feel about this, so let me know your thoughts on it!

An answer to your question: Within the next few months

It seems like for you all, there is something you need to become aware of in January. You may be trying to see things from a practical angle but whatever is concerning or preoccupying you needs to be looked at from a spiritual/esoteric lens. You may get or have been getting messages about whatever this is or needs your attention. They may have been confusing but should make more sense later in the month. If not, you just have to trust your sixth sense is telling you; not necessarily your physical ones.

For some, this problem that is trying to make itself known to you has to do with a relationship. Perhaps there is infidelity afoot and your emotions and senses are trying to reassure you that your suspicions are unfortunately correct.

For others of you, you may be concerned about your job. You may be waiting for some sort of pay raise, promotion, or acknowledgement/congratulations for your efforts. What you're not understanding is that these things are coming! Just not at the pace you want them to. You may have to wait a few months before all of this materializes. Relax and take a step back. Look at the bigger picture and search for clues that reaffirm that reward is on the way instead of hyperfixating on what you supposedly lack at this current moment.

There really isn’t much to add here other than for fire signs on the whole, we have to take a step back and look at the bigger picture of our current situations. Sort of similar to air and earth signs, we too can get bogged down on the details or things not going in precisely the exact manner that we want. Combine that with our classic impatience, we have a recipe for hostile feelings and self-absorption. January asks us to look at things on the grand scale and have a little faith and patience that things will work out in our favor because they will!

Also, when I was shuffling the Ask Your Guides cards I kept saying February instead of January for some strange reason. Maybe February will be an important month for some of you.

An answer to your question: Within the next few months

For many of you, you went through a very difficult time recently but luckily it will end or begin to end in January. During this rough patch, your world may have felt like it was crumbling down and that everything you wanted was shattered right in front of you. But the storm is moving on. Although exhausted, especially emotionally and spiritually, try to look at the bigger lessons or take away from your ordeal. Look at your situation not from a place clouded by your turbulent emotions but from a clear and open mind. Something new might be born out of this turmoil, perhaps a new you. Maybe you are finally seeing something or someone for what they are rather than what you wanted them to be. Regardless of what you went through, take a moment to rest, reflect, and realize that you deserve good things.

Leave it to the water signs to have a dramatic reading lol! But yeah it seems like you all will be going through some hardships in January that may be on its way out. With the “within the next few months,” however, this ordeal may persist a bit longer for some of you. When I shuffling I kept saying Scorpio first instead of Cancer, so perhaps it is the Scorpio people that will still be in the storm for a bit longer. That is unfortunately very on brand for the sign.

In either case, there is a lot of feelings of being disappointed and sad. It seems like almost all the elements are feeling a bit down and believe that their desires are going unheard. For the water signs though, this seems very personal and not really tired to your ambitions directly. Whatever is going on goes a bit deeper than that. You all may have been spiraling for a while, not knowing how to get out or straighten yourselves out. Again, however, it seems as though the darkest and roughest part of this time is on its way out. Although it may be difficult to reflect on what happened, it seems like the cards want you to do just that. To think about what you went through and try to potentially see why those things occurred or what is something potentially positive you can take away from it. After that, try to rest and recenter self-love and pleasure into your life again.

An answer to your question: Wait, compromise (bottom of the deck)

In January, you all will be working through some past life baggage, especially any past life hurt. Astrologically this makes sense as all of the outer planets (i.e., Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto) are all aspecting you in some major way. There needs to be a spiritual healing that happens in January, or you will embark on one during the new year. There may be an (re)alignment that happens once you take care of whatever needs to be healed and laid to rest. It seems like this karma may come at you at fast or demands your attention strongly in January.

For the rest of you, you are not concerned about the spiritual but the physical and your money. With the pandemic raging on for a 3rd year now, many of you are worried about your money. You may have been able to (barely) stay afloat in the prior years but you don't know how long you can last. It seems as though the message is to be more patient and compromise. Worrying won't help none and the obstacles in your way may be a blessing in disguise or a sign that what you truly want is not ready yet. Whatever the reason may be, you need to keep your head held high because you will be fine in the end. Just relax and wait a little longer.

There seems to be two camps here–one dealing with some sort of spiritual matter and the other dealing with something more tangible and physical. They don’t seem really related but I think they are. For the ones overly concerned about your finances or other physical issues like health, it seems like these cards want you to take a step back and reconnect with your spirituality. Worrying and obsessing over money and what you want to have won’t help you nor speed up whatever you are seeking financially to manifest. The universe is always working in your favor but you don’t seem to believe that right now. As earth signs, you are the most resourceful of the Zodiac and know how to survive modestly with comfort. What will be different in January? You will find a way, and as you do, have a little faith that what you desire will come to you in due time.

For the rest where it seems like the spiritual is more pertinent in January than physical matters, I think you’ll make a lot of headway in whatever you are doing. It seems to be that you’re engaging with some of spiritual work or trying to level up your healing game or even engaging in shadow work, and in January, I see a lot success in these areas for you all. You may be awakening spiritually and with that, you are aligning with what your soul came here to do. That’s great! Keep up the good work!

An answer to your question: There's something better

Many cards had a lot to say to you all in January! A big one seems to do with your relationships. On the platonic front you may be unable to see your friends in January, especially those that live far away. This seems to be the result of other obligations you may need to tend to, such as your job or family. This can also be because the new variant is making travel difficult right now as well.

On the romantic front, some of you may be going through or will experience a breakup. It seems to be with a man or masculine person. Regardless of the details, it is important to not hold on to your negative feelings. Experience them and then let them go. Yes, surrender to your current emotions, let them run their course, then move on.

For others of you, there is something misaligned here. You have been ignoring your spiritual (and likely emotional) side. You are urged in January to correct this. You may be too concerned about earthly, material matters right now when you should direct your attention to something higher.

For those of you who are trying to manifest something, it may not be exactly what you were intending--it may be something better! So, celebrate! Something good is coming. Be open to receiving it.

The air signs also got a very interesting spread. There seems to be a sense of heartache here which is not surprising. As the social signs, this ongoing pandemic has likely been very difficult for you all. Not being able to see other people face-to-face is unusual for you all and only communicating digitally may not always be preferred. But how we engage with one another will have to remain distant like this for a while longer, unfortunately.

For some of you, you may be going through a breakup or rough patch in your relationship possibly with a man or masculine person. The man holding a heart can also symbolize shutting down your emotions. The cards are saying to not do that and surrender to your emotions in order to heal them. Sometimes the reason why we can’t move on or heal is because we don’t want to deal with our negative emotions, or conversely, we sit in them too much. You need to rebalance yourself.

Indeed, balance and realignment is a big message for you air signs. This seems to be on all levels. Some of you may be too preoccupied by your material matters or emotions. For some of you, you need to tap more into your spiritual side. Your guides want you to get back on the right path in life because you have strayed too far from it.

Another way to get back into harmony is to be open to receiving and giving. You may be on either extreme, receiving and being selfish or giving and being a martyr. You need to be content in the middle, not over or under doing either side.

Finally, there is a subset of people who are going to receive something from the universe or another person soon. It seems to be something you have been manifesting for a while. However, it may be something better than you intended or you didn’t think your manifestation would yield so much fruit. Good things are coming and it is time you celebrate. Your efforts will be paid off, perhaps very literally.

So, this is all I have for you all! I hope everyone likes the new things I did this month. It was interesting to do, I believe. It seems like all the elements need to engage with the spiritual more as there were cards indicating the need to so in every group. Yes, we live in the 3D and have to focus on what’s going on around us to survive, but it seems like 2022 and January wants us to also consider the spiritual to be equally important. The signs we receive, the messages we have in our dreams, etc. are just as important as making sure you get that promotion or job, it seems. Remember the card I pulled for what we should have learned in 2021? To live on Earth but not of it. In other words, yes, live and engage with the world but do not be consumed by it. There is much more to life that money and eating, for example. Are you emotionally and spiritually fulfilled as you are physically and financially? Both are important but are they to you? That seems to be the question of January.
