Coronavirus
It is pointless to expect the end of the pandemic in 2022, because Jupiter (the planet of high coverage) will be in close conjunction with Neptune (the planet of infections) in the spring. This transit takes place from mid-March to early May, which means that a new outbreak of the disease and the emergence of a new virus are expected during this period.
A good omen is that the conjunction will occur before the start of the Jupiter loop and therefore will be limited to only a period of 1.5 months. If the planets merged together for a long time, as was the case in 2009 (during the swine flu pandemic - just on the loop of Jupiter) and in 1984 (during the AIDS epidemic - also on the loop of Jupiter), then it would cause a really serious reason for concerns.
In March-April 2022, there is a risk of mutation and widespread spread of the virus. But it will be more socially resonance than medically. Because just from the second half of March, Saturn (the planet of deceleration and scarcity) forms a long T-square with lunar nodes, which is an indicator of a long crisis. Due to lack of funds, people will have to spend their savings on treatment, and some will not have access to medical care at all. But the main problem will be well-being, not health. In the spring, scientists will make great progress in studying infections and developing effective measures to combat them.
Covid-19 perspective
In astrology, it's believed that the conjunction of Jupiter with Saturn, which occurs every 20 years, marks a new milestone in social development. One year ago in December 2020, at the last approach of these planets, universal vaccination against coronavirus began, and it became clear that the anti-virus theme will be native to us in the next 20 years.
After the emergence of a new strain of omicron in November 2021, scientists said, that if existing vaccines are ineffective, then new ones will have to be created. The WHO opposes revaccination, considering that this way the pandemic will never end: someone has already been vaccinated 3 times (the population of developed countries), and someone is still without a vaccine (the population of poor countries, more than 500 million people).
One way or another, in the coming years there will be an active study of the fight against infection - in order to cope with the virus with minimal effort (with the help of drugs and light vaccines), and eliminate social inequality in receiving vaccinations.
Another factor of crisis is no agreement of different covid certificates. In the coming years, this issue will be settled, but not in 2022 (because of Saturn malevolent aspects).
Results 2021
The main astrological events in 2021 were the loops of the giant planets, due to which their unfavorable transits were repeated three times:
Square of Saturn and Uranus 2021
It acted all year long, with a short break (from July 27 to November 19), exacerbating the social and financial crisis. Saturn played a tough restrictive role here, suppressing the protest moods of Uranus and regulating further technological progress:
- popular unrest was suppressed, Internet resources were blocked (Tor, etc.). As part of anti-crisis measures, the authorities took the technological giants seriously, taxed them (because the Internet sphere is flourishing and will never die). In the context of content control, major Internet companies have been hit with huge fines for not removing "prohibited" content;
- many russian persons and companies objectionable to the authorities found themselves in the status of "foreign agents". And although it has been awarded in Russia since 2014, the control over the media, human rights activists and philanthropists has become unprecedentedly tough right now;
- forced vaccination began, infringement of antivaxers;
- WHO has published alarming forecasts related to natural pollution, and at the legislative level, measures are now being tightened against the harmful technogenic influence (which also Uranus represents). Developing countries have set a course for renewable energy sources, but this threatens to seriously disrupt production, so the process will be long and unprofitable.
At the same time, green energy turned out to be too dependent on weather anomalies:
- wind farms did not work without wind,
- solar panel performance decreased due to abnormally bad weather,
- gas storage facilities were 70% empty after a cold winter, increased gas prices. Nord Stream-2 wasn't launched because of the claims of the European Union. Here is, too, the influence of the Saturn-Uranus quadrature, which prevents the technical innovation start. Business experts say Europe's gas crisis won't end until spring 2023.
Because the square of Saturn and Uranus will be repeated in 2022, then the above trends will take a new turn and won't make life easier for us.
Square Jupiter and Proserpina 2021
Another significant transit of 2021, held in March-April and September-December, forming a T-square with the participation of the Black Moon in some periods. Proserpina here acted as a planet of losses and changes, and Jupiter provided them with global coverage. The square of these planets is an indicator of inflation, which occurred in 2021 (just like in 2015, when this transit took place for the last time). By the end of 2021, the Bank of Russia recorded an acceleration of inflation to a maximum over the past 6 years, the Bank of England - over the past 10 years, the US Federal Reserve - over the past 40 years.
Surprisingly, this transit coincided with:
- unprecedented rise in prices for goods, services, fuel, transport, housing;
- accidents of two large container ships in spring and autumn;
- the bankruptcy of the largest Chinese developer, which caused great excitement in the financial world, predicting a new global crisis;
- a record decline in bond yields over the past 20 years (unlike stocks).
T-squares Neptune 2021
Stable T-squares of Neptune with the lunar nodes and other planets held until spring and during May. At first, following other astrologers, I considered Neptune as the main indicator of viral outbreaks. However, in fact, it became clear that he was not the only one associated with the spread of infection. For example, when the number of infections jumped sharply in July, Neptune did not have a single bad aspect at all. But on the other hand, Jupiter (the planet of mass character) was in a long T-square with the Black Moon (the planet of unsanitary conditions), and Uranus (the planet of unforeseen events) was in staunch opposition to Proserpine (the planet of risks). Thus, the jump in infections this time was purely social in nature, and the number of infected people increased precisely “thanks to” vaccinations because people massively failed to comply with the post-vaccination quarantine (which is still happening today).
Crisis will be at the beginning of 2022, because the square of Saturn-Uranus will leave only by the end of January. Until mid-March there will be 1.5 months of respite and then - a new wave of the crisis until the end of autumn... Spring-summer 2022 is expected to be harsh, poor, full of restrictions, and autumn - lean and abnormal in terms of weather.
But New Year's Eve 2023 will be quite successful. And retrograde Mars, which often makes its season tense, is expected to be not so aggressive.
A clear positive aspect in 2022 could be the conjunction of Uranus with the northern lunar node. But since Uranus will be in opposition to Proserpina for almost the entire year, then no obvious technical shifts are expected. We'll have all the necessary technologies at our disposal, but only those who have already mastered the technical skills will be able to take advantage of them. Beginners will not be able to make a techno transition painlessly. Many people will face data loss, and the launch of Nord Stream 2 will be hindered all the time.
January 2022 - social tension
January is expected to be rich in social and political events, and since I have already made a forecast for this month, I will not repeat it here.
February 2022 is a positive month of the year
At the end of January, retro-Mercury will connect with Pluto and Selena, and in fact this stellium will drag on until mid-February. The exact conjunction will be on January 27-29, then on February 4 Mercury will become direct and on 10-15 will again pass Pluto with Selena. Selena should have a softening effect on this couple, and no matter how pessimistic the news of these days may be, we will be sure that everything is for the best. Absurd anti-covid measures will probably be introduced. But it's encouraging that all these planets in February will have entirely positive and very strong aspects:
- reversal Mercury will form a sextile to Proserpina on February 2-6;
- Pluto will form a favorable triangle at the lunar nodes on February 5-14,
so February bans and innovations will not be too harsh. Even if someone is convicted, the punishment will be mitigated.
Optimism is added by the bisextile of Jupiter with Mars and Uranus until February 9, which will help influential men to agree among them. Success is expected in technical, not political, moments, but it will stop the rampant inflation at least for a while. The powerful sextile of Jupiter to Uranus, which will last during a month, makes it clear that the situation in the world is normalizing (despite the jambs of individuals). In an astrological sense, this is the best time to launch Nord Stream 2 (although it’s not the season).
An interesting February phenomenon is the long conjunction of Venus and Mars. After the turn on January 30, Venus will still gain momentum, so the speeds of both planets will equal (from February 12 to March 12). That's great rarity; astrologically this means the unity of gender goals in society. There will be a big bright event in the field of art, sports, entertainment and inventions. One of them is the Tokyo Olympics.
March 2022 - the beginning of the crisis
March 15 marks the beginning of a new crisis: on this day, Saturn will rise to the top of the T-square of the lunar nodes and won't get off it until the end of July, making almost the entire coming year a crisis. Everything is complicated by the fact that Proserpina (the slowest and most risky planet) from March 13 will connect with Ketu and will also become part of the aforementioned T-square, as well as the cause of irreversible changes. The way out of the crisis in 2022 will be slow and almost hopeless.
An unfavorable Saturn is always associated with a drop in income and a shortage of the most ordinary things - food, fuel, useful chemicals, etc. The prices of these goods will increase, and not only a austerity regime is likely, but also a stop in production. Predicting the growth of the global economy in 2022 is pointless. In anticipation of improvements, investments and the removal of covid restrictions, almost the entire year will pass.
April 2022 - military operation
The period March 31 - April 10 is looking depressing as Mars will conjunct Saturn and keep it company at the top of T-square to the lunar nodes. This is a dangerous period, threatening cold-blooded, well-planned military aggression. The last time this happened was in August 2016 during the Syrian conflict. In mid-August 2021, when the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan, Mars also had a T-square to the lunar nodes, so I expect similar events to repeat.
As French elections are scheduled for April, they are likely to be accompanied by riots and violence.
May 2022 - Scandal at the end of the month
Retro Mercury, Mars and Jupiter have a lot of positive aspects in May, but there are 2 unpleasant moments:
- Proserpina will be at the south lunar node for the whole month: on the one hand, this conjunction will make her weak, but on the other hand, no one has canceled her square with Saturn, so May global crisis will exacerbate unwanted changes, lead to hidden losses and a painful rejection of familiar things. The period from May 22 to mid-June is especially critical, when retro-Mercury forms a square to Saturn. Most of bad news about new restrictions and unemployment will arrive on these days;
- from April 28, Jupiter will form a long quadrature to the Black Moon, which means that the spread of the infection will not stop until the end of June and will again hit tourism and finance. By the end of May, Mars will also join Jupiter, which means that one of the famous men will become a participant in a corruption scandal, will be caught on abusing. There was a similar double quadrature in September-October 2004, when Lukashenko received an unlimited opportunity to be re-elected.
The last week of May will be the most critical.
June 2022 - intensification of the crisis and the beginning of techno-transition
The beginning of June will be as tense and dull as the end of May: retrograde Mercury will still be in square with Saturn, which also becomes retrograde on June 5. And Mercury on June 4, on the contrary, will become direct, making these days significant in a crisis. Given the slow divergence of these planets, their unfavorable aspect will last for half a month. In fact, Mercury will become part of Saturn's T-square, which means that world problems will be actively discussed in a pessimistic manner at the beginning of summer. The main agenda will be finances, not viruses. And since Saturn at the top of T-square will now turn retrograde, there will be no end of crisis...
In the second half of June, Uranus (the planet of inventions) will begin its approach to the northern lunar node, which is an indicator of technological progress. But the opposition of Proserpina (the planet of risk and loss) will make this progress extremely painful: testing and implementing new technologies will be accompanied by an irretrievable loss of data and money. I don't advise investing in the technological projects: not being tested well, they won't survive in market conditions, despite the attractiveness of their ideas. This is especially true for the period from the second half of July to the second half of August, when the conjunction of Uranus-Rakhu becomes accurate.
July 2022 - change of power
July is rich in positive moments: there will be a tangible recovery of population health; people in power will show themselves well in managing the world situation in the first half of the month.
But the closer Uranus comes to the north node, the more negative aspects will also be approach to it. In fact, by July 27, the following planets will form a negative square in the sky:
- Mercury opposition to retro Saturn and Selena;
- opposition of Proserpina-Ketu to the stellium Mars-Uranus-Rakhu;
- and the vertices of these oppositions will be interconnected by means of quadratures.
Something similar happened in January 2021, when Trump supporters stormed the US Congress, and also in April-May 2007, when France held a tense presidential election. This time a new leader will also come to power, but in which country I don’t know yet. Only one thing is clear: conflict and unrest are inevitable, because Mars, under the fire of quadratures, will greatly inflame the situation. With the advent of a new person, everyone will forget about the crisis.
August 2022 - bans, protests, fines, technical failures
August, like last year, will be heated. By the second half of the month, the tension will subside, but crisis will remain. If in spring, retro-Saturn has been in a T-square with only lunar nodes, the opposition of Uranus and Proserpina will come in their place in summer.
The square Saturn-Uranus is formed for the 4th time and will again be long-playing, because on August 25 Uranus will turn retrograde. Again the time of protests, sanctions, restrictions, disruptions. In general, the whole spectrum of negativity that we experienced in 2021 will be repeated until the end of November.
September 2022 - information boom
September is a relatively quiet month. The social and technological crisis, of course, will not go anywhere, but at least there will be no clearly aggressive tension among the masses (it will remain only in the information field).
Normally, Mercury goes retrograde 3 times a year, but 4 loops are expected this year. Coincidentally, in each retro period, Mercury will have a long unfavorable aspect with the giant planets:
- January - conjunction with Saturn;
- May - square with Saturn;
- September - opposition with retro Jupiter and retro Chiron;
- December - conjunction with Pluto
This means that unpleasant and absurd news will be circulated in the media for a long time, sometimes without any constructive.
October 2022 - female strength and male weakness
The first week of October is overshadowed by the T-square of Mars to retro-Mercury and retro-Neptune: threats from famous men, assassination attempts, accidents, military operations are likely. On October 7, the square of Mars to Mercury will fall apart, but will remain with Neptune, which is fraught with erroneous actions for men (they will mow, get confused in testimony, harbor illusions about their power). This is especially critical for October 12-15, when the Mars-Neptune quadrature will become accurate. Since Mars will turn retrograde on the penultimate day of October, the trend described above will drag on until the end of the year.
Unlike men, women will shine in October, because the movement of Sun and Venus are synchronized, and they will pass the whole month in close conjunction.
Retro Pluto is characterized by entirely positive aspects in the fall, but the opposition to the Black Moon, which began on September 23, will ruin everything. On October 9, Pluto will go direct, and this transit will be delayed until the end of the year. He says that pessimistic moods will prevail in society due to the inaction of the authorities and insufficient attention to people's problems.
November 2022 - Retro Mars
The first decade of November is expected to be very tense, as Saturn will be in a square to a whole stellium: Sun-Mercury-Venus-Proserpina-Kethu. But later the same stellium will form a multiple trine to Jupiter, which will be very long and beneficial, because of Jupiter reversal on November 24.
At first, I had the idea that Nancy Pelosi would win the November elections for the US Senate. But her personal forecast is not as good as Kevin McCarthy's.
One of the main events of November is the retro Mars. It's always more tangible than retro Mercury and retro Venus, because it lasts 2.5 months and forms a bunch of long-playing aspects during this time. In November, these aspects will be:
- square with Neptune from September 30 to December 25. It will become accurate on November 16-19 (as well as a month earlier). This aspect will strengthen the illusory nature of powerful men: they will make many mistakes, leave their posts, but their mistakes will turn into real losses for someone;
- square with Jupiter November 2-5 will make the beginning of the month even more intense (along with the above-described stellium);
- повторный trine with Saturn from November 11 to December 10 (will be exact on November 26-28) - a very encouraging transit, which brought stability to the world and neutralizes the negative.
Unlike astrologers, astronomers are very happy about the loop and opposition of Mars, because during this period it comes as close to the Earth as possible and is clearly visible. This time Mars will make its looping motion high above the horizon near Aldebaran (alpha Taurus).
December 2022 - on an major note
December marks the end of several long transits:
- On December 3, the square of Saturn with retro-Uranus will finally fall apart, now for a long time;
- On December 11, the opposition of retro-Uranus to Proserpina will end. The only sad thing is that the north lunar node will now move inexorably away from Uranus, making it less strong.
Retro-Mars will have 3 significant events on December 8: opposition with the Sun, occultation of the Moon and an exact semi-sextile with retro-Uranus. This day will become emotionally important for famous men.
The second half of December will bring good agreements at the highest level, because 12-30 Mars will be in sextile with Chiron (the planet of equality and partnership). On December 15-19, their transit will become accurate, which means that the most important negotiations will take place around these dates.
