January 2022 Overview

Rededicate to Your Mission
Feel: Inspirational, devotional, mission driven, innovative

It’s the new year, and time to decide on what you will dedicate to your next 12 months. Will you keep going at what you loved last year and innovate your approach? Or will you change course and spark inspiration?

Whichever you choose, the choices you make today create your future.

2022 is just peeking over the horizon. Your vision is getting clearer of what you want to bring in according to your new values.

2021 was too much. You’ve left so much behind so you could make space for your new values that include self love, emotional well being, health, rest, and intuition.

Now you choose.

You choose your revised mission.

You commit to living up to this revision with responsibility.

You dedicate yourself to this mission, but not by overworking.

You dedicate yourself by first believing that you are worthy to receive with ease and flow.

You believe that you can Work without trying too hard. With just the right amount of effort and the right amount of restoration.

“She believed she could, so she did.” – Unknown

You’ve seen this internet meme many times. This is your mantra for January where you are given a fresh slate.

With the energy ripe with possibility, don’t get stuck in the details of a specific intention. Expand yourself into possibility.

What is possible for you in your life and business when you believe?

To believe is the first step before dedicating yourself to your mission. What do you need to believe in yourself and your mission?

In this first month of 2022, your seeds stretch out of the darkness of the soil and reach for the sun. The seedling doesn’t work hard to reach up. It doesn’t strive or try. It believes the sun is there, and it can feel its warmth and hear its call. It believes it is time to grow so it does – with ease and flow.

As you look across the horizon desiring to see what’s ahead, how will you decide to grow? What new belief in yourself will be that warmth of the sun calling your mission forward?

I believe this is your time to work with ease and impact, in harmony with the cosmos and in active participation with the communities you build with your business.

I believe your Work as an entrepreneur and changemaker is important and part of your Spiritual journey, as you step into your worthiness, your expertise, and your leadership.

It’s time to dedicate yourself to you.

Astrology for Entrepreneurs – Week of January 9 – 15, 2022

January 9, 2022

2Q Moon in Aries

10:11 AM PT | 1:11 PM ET

Act with self love

January 11, 2022

Mars Sagittarius 20° square Neptune Pisces 20°

1:43 PM PT | 4:34 PM ET

Magical creative vitality

For a few days leading up to and away, you feel a gentle power bubbling forth. Usually when Mars and Neptune meet, we channel our physical energy (Mars) into devotional and imaginative (Neptune) outlets. Move your body gently to integrate the inner heat and confidence.

On this Mars day, it’s a wonderful day to get moving on your to-do list. Especially those big projects where you need to do lots of visioning, and big thinking.

Especially activating for Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces).

January 14, 2022

Mercury Retrograde Begins Aquarius 10°

3:41 AM PT | 6:41 AM ET

Rethinking social impact

As Mercury stops on this one point of Aquarius 10°, be ready for all kinds of tech glitches, especially as both Mercury and Aquarius have to do with high tech.

Remember, you do not need to fear this cycle if you learn to work with the energy of resetting, redoing, rethinking, and reorganizing.

This is the Mercury Rx cycle where you get to rethink what kind of innovations you need in your Work to be able to focus on your expertise. You are seeing how your Work is making a difference in your World, and how your Work can further reverberate in harmony in your larger communities. You’ll reconsider how your past innovations have now created silver linings of opportunities.

Look at the area of your chart between Aquarius 10° – Capricorn 24°, as this is the area of your chart that will be highlighted three times. If you have planets or angles in this area of your chart, they will want to chime in on this retrograde cycle.

If you have big Saturn energy (Aquarius or Capricorn Sun, Moon or Rising or Saturn on your angles), you will see how you need to focus in your efforts to maximize your impact.
