Welcome to 2022! In numerology, last year represented change, while this year represents stability. This year, we can take the uneasiness we have faced and the ways we were forced to adapt in the world and in our lives and find stability and security within ourselves again. It’s time to move forward in ways that are truly meaningful.
We kick off the year with a new moon in Capricorn on Jan. 2. This lunation will have us feeling excited about breaking free of the things that have held us back, and it invites us to be upfront about who we are and what we want. It will be important that we pay attention to key details when it comes to manifesting the future we crave so it can bring us long-term results.
Jan. 17 brings a full moon in Cancer. This is a great opportunity to set ourselves free from the things that are no longer serving us. It comes with strong supporting energy to make room for major developments and new things to manifest in our lives. Embrace this drive—just be mindful of impulsivity along the way.
Mercury will station retrograde on Jan. 14 in the sign of Aquarius. During this time, we should reflect, reassess, and revise the way we present ourselves when it comes to personal relationships and our place in the world. It’s an important time to think before we speak and make sure that we’re putting ourselves out there with intentionality.
Capricorn season is a great time to focus on our careers, when we build a strong foundation for our goals so we can climb to the top. Aquarius season wants us to take the things we have started to build and find consistency in them. It’s a time to think outside the box, notice what we have, and figure out how we can make that even better—not just for ourselves, but for everyone involved.
There’s so much potential for you to make new discoveries about yourself this month, Capricorn, whether that means engaging in new activities or putting yourself out there in a new way.

This is a really important month for you to examine how you take care of yourself both mentally and physically on a daily basis, Virgo.

If you need to repair something that’s broken or needs attention, communication is key; it will help you get answers.

Trust yourself and your beliefs, and know that you are living your life exactly as intended.
