We’re kicking off a new year, an opportunity for new beginnings, fresh starts, and exciting adventures. Throughout the year we are going to experience a number of eclipses, planetary retrogrades and more – What will this mean for your life?
The study of astrology is far more elaborate than many people realize. While the average person is familiar with the concept of the zodiac, identifying their sun sign and what that reveals about their personality. However, astrologists are able to provide an even greater insight into our lives. For example, the movement of the moon through the various phases of the lunar cycle has a direct impact on our emotional state, culminating with the incredible intensity at the high of the full moon.
At the same time, the movement of the planets throughout the signs will influence our lives in a number of ways – encouraging relationships, triggering personal growth, and challenging our views of the world around us. As planets shift into retrograde movement, this will further alter the energy that we’re feeling adding to both the excitement and challenges that we will experience. It’s going to be an exciting one.
The good news is that astrology is not only used to predict the overall energy shifts in the world but in understanding your sun sign and the way it interacts with each of these events, you can also predict specifically how you are going to feel this impact in your own life.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Now it’s time to address that one point of change that you so desperately need to make. It won’t be easy, in fact, it’s likely going to be really hard. However, it’s going to be worth it.
October to December: Now that you’ve made the biggest change in your recent past, you can breathe a sigh of relief. You did it, and you came out a better person on the others side.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
January to March: It should come as no surprise that the highly optimistic and social Gemini is going to walk into the near year with a smile on your face and a skip in your step.

October to December: This is the point where you may be experiencing some regrets from your earlier decisions as it hits that you have removed these people from your life.

If you are content with your work, it’s time to run for that big raise or promotion.
July to September: Following the same pattern as the first half of the year, it’s time to move onto the next point – your friendships. You have some incredible, supportive people in your life.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)
January to March: The start of the year is going to feel a little off to you. Don’t ignore your gut feelings, your instincts are there to help guide and protect you. Take a step back and allow yourself to reflect upon your life and your choices. What is happening that isn’t sitting well with you? Identifying this is the first step to making an improvement.

July to September: You’re going to experience a bump in the road during these months in the form of someone from your past. This could be a former friend, an ex-lover or an estranged family member.

April to June: Now that you’ve created a habit of daily gratitude, it’s time to address another barrier to your happiness and success – your fear of failure.
