As I’ve done for over 30 years, last January I gave you my personal forecasts for each sign. I figured it was time to review at what I offered you then, to see how much was fulfilled or not. So please take a new look at this piece, and feel free to leave comments about what worked and what didn’t.
Over the past weekend, we took a new look at the main action beats for 2023, and as I promised, here’s what’s up for each individual sign. For your renewed consideration, “Your 2023 Forecast for Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.” And yes, I’ll be doing another one in a couple of weeks.
Aries – The first part of the year continues the focus on goals, ambitions, and group work as you prepare to review of the movie of your life these next 3 years. By March you’ll begin to close some old ambitions and have new sense of your long term motives and harvests. The new adventure you glimpsed last Summer is firing up the first 4 months of the year. Be organized in April. By May you begin a new way of valuing and using what you have to feed your future. After your April renewal, you’ll hit maximum speed by Summer, with potential income streams made possible by generosity and vision.
Taurus – You continue a time of high visibility and should accept center stage if offered. Deepen your connection to your foundations, show heart to others, and you’ll find realizations and unique gifts and blessings promised by the productive renewal of the Summer. Get as much closure as you can, forgive as much as you can, and get ready for a new freedom or adventure beginning then, when a long term cycle launches. Be cautious between late May and early July, the last half of October and November. Make decisions and act thoughtfully on the basis of your heart.
Gemini – This year continues your pursuit of truth and a more satisfying future, preparing you for a higher visibility this Summer which will prepare you for the influence you could have by 2024-2025 if you’re visionary and compassionate, as well as grounded and adaptable. You’re still seeing the future and should accept behind the scenes positions of power if offered. This year brings rewards and harvests which will open the door to a great adventure or move in 2024. The frustrated initiatives of late 2022 spring forward in early 2023. Be thoughtful and precise in July and August.
Cancer – This is an extraordinarily productive year as you move into newer and deeper truths and futures. This year will bring you new friends who are stable and grounded, with closures in February and March and renewals in April. You’ve begun a new future since the Summer of 2022 which now move forward, bringing renewal and more solid connections. While you still have to be aware of who others are at the deepest of levels, your intuition should be fairly accurate because of your 12 year journey into greater truths which began Spring of 2022. Stay balanced in September and the first half of October.
Leo – You’ve learned what you can and cannot control in life the past two years, and had to let go of lesser considerations when bigger ones were at stake! You’ve been maturing in your relationships, and this year opens you to a greater feeling for what others value. You’ve been preparing for what’s coming for quite a while, and the truths you began to glimpse in the Summer of 2022 will rapidly shape your future the first 4 months of 2023, leading you to professional opportunities or greater public visibility by this Summer. You have a major renewal taking place in June and early July. Be cautious mid-October through late November.
Virgo – As with last year, continue to play at your work and work at your play as you navigate Neptune’s fogs opposed your Sun. Stay clear about what role(s) you are and are not playing in the world, and work hard, since Saturn is preparing you for a new way of being in relationship these next 3 years. The first part of the year involves renewal, while the second part of the year stabilizes a new future and form of expression. Finish what needs finishing before August. You could find a vision of financial security by Autumn.
Libra – Your creativity continues to mature, and if you have children, you’ve seen them mature into their karma these past 2 years. By March you’ll begin to sense a different way to express yourself, and a new focus of foundations. Late May brings conflicts in the relational sector, so concentrate and shift direction if appropriate. The year begins by picking up the promise of the Autumn of 2022, with crosscurrents in April and May. Your ruler goes retrograde between July and September, so review where your heart’s at, and why you want the people and things you identify with.
Scorpio – You’ve been getting a broader view of your family and foundations these past 2 years and now are moving toward a more mature relationship with your children and/or creativity. While you’ve managed to make a lot of hidden progress this past year, by late May, June, and July some things from the past will have to be revisited. You may find you need to separate your values from others’ values. Now that you’ve eliminated old ideas and perspectives, you can find more perfect truths in April and May before you hit the cross currents in June and July. October and November bring closure and renewal.
Sagittarius – The year begins with your relational sector finally moving forward, and this year you’ll climb to the heights the first 6 months and then close out the old cycle the last 6 months, eventually finding yourself at overlapping new cycles by December. This year the mental training you’ve done the past 2 years finally brings you to a point of radical renewal by this Summer. Listen to the call. This is a time to see your creative potential in new ways, and be simple and practical in executing whatever you need to do, whether in work or play. The crosscurrents in July and August actually serve your future which should arrive by October.
Capricorn – You’re at the end of many years of profound life-altering purifications. You’ve been seeing a larger contribution and new ways of managing a broader life purpose the past 2 years, and this year you deepen your intuition and connection to the collective atmosphere. You’ll go through a radical transformation in late February and early March. Try not to get into tugs of war in April and May as your life turns some major corners between now and then. By June you’re in extraordinarily favorable conditions which will last through the end of the year. Summer brings adjustments and sacrifices, while the last 4 months of the year bring returns and rewards.
Aquarius – This year finishes the conditions, training, restrictions, and lessons of your entry to a new life, and deepens your feelings. You’ve gotten what you worked for these past 2 years, and have said goodbye to many things and people. The first part of the year is about managing your “self-undoing behaviors” so they don’t mess things up, with plenty of openings to new ways of seeing things. Don’t mess up your future in the second half of May. There may be some interpersonal tension in June and July, while July and August can help you understand how the past relates to your present. Be cautious late October and November.
Pisces – This year closes the books on the old movie of your life with its ideals and higher goals, and begins a new look at that movie with an eye to your ability to generate compassion and forgiveness as part of your job as Witness to humanity. You have been living in the midst of the great dreamscape for many years, so see a new way to value or use what you have as prelude to a much more solid financial sense and a more enjoyable way of expressing your view. Whatever began to emerge in the Autumn of 2022 is now underway, with solid productivity this Summer. Avoid tugs of war in July and August, regenerate in September and October, and move into higher realms of truth in late October and November.
My personal predictions for 2023!
Cats will continue to rule the world
Dogs will continue to have owners while cats will continue to have staff Millions of people will continue to believe JFK is going to appear at the side of Donald Dump to overthrow the pedophile deep state Despite solar, wind, and other electric breakthroughs, the fossil fuel industry will continue to gouge the world with high prices Despite nanotech able to destroy cancerous tumors without damaging surrounding tissue, the cancer industry will continue to tell us they need billions to fight cancer. US banks will continue to be busted for shady practices and continue to make record profits by gouging customers. The military will continue to insist they don’t need to fund certain weapons systems; Congress will continue to ignore the military and fund production of things the military doesn’t want nor need. I predict Congress will continue to demonstrate the truth in Mark Twain’s observations that:A. It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.
B. All Congresses and Parliaments have a kindly feeling for idiots, and a compassion for them, on account of personal experience and heredity.
Speaking of Congress, here’s another from a founding father: “I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is a disgrace, that two become a law firm, and that three or more become a congress." - John Adams
I found a prediction by Warren Buffett! “I could end the deficit in five minutes. You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP all sitting members of congress are ineligible for reelection.”
I’ll close this with one last prediction: I predict that Astrology Arizona will continue to have top shelf presentations from great astrologers around the nation and world this year and will continue to be a source for all who want to learn more about the celestial science.
Our first year was better than any of us imagined, the second year maintained orbital speed and productivity, and we all look forward to another year of great astrology, great fellowship, and hopefully, a better world. May we all be in a better head space and heart space this time next year than we are today!
Thanks for joining us in this grand adventure to keep the Light of Astrology burning brightly as we enter the dawning new Aquarian era.
