Sagittarius

Trying to escape your own shadow

 

2023 seems to be a transitional year for you because it points to dysfunctional areas of your life that you are called upon to explain and try to fix. On the one hand, your routine is not pleasant either because you work long hours or because you do something difficult and heavy. Perhaps you are unemployed which is a big obstacle for you to stand on your own feet and cover your personal needs. You could blame others for this situation (society or your boss; conditions in humanity in general or your bad luck) so as to abdicate all responsibility. Or you could make internal overhaul and see whether your choices fit your skills and talents or not and whether you compromise with whatever you are given without going after your dreams.

 

Saturn enters Pisces on March, 7 and will make you cope with the dysfunctional areas of your life and realise that you run after choices and people who do not help you have the desired outlook on life. Perhaps there are problems at home, your relationship with family members becomes more difficult, and you wish to take distance. Perhaps your relationship does not move ahead the way you want it to and as a result, you are trapped in the vicious circle of your choices. You need to give up on a side of yourself that insists on seeing things from a distance without emotionally bond with close people. Is it maybe time this side of yourself matured?

 

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Aries until May, 16 and it boosts your love life. You will have the opportunity to flirt, to meet interesting people and to dare to approach people whom you would avoid under other circumstances. Perhaps you make an acquaintance that develops really fast and can set your heart on fire. You are excited and you dare express feelings you did not even think existed. Perhaps you take the next step in your relationship which means that a pregnancy could come up that overturns a lot of facts you had in mind. If you are at a stagnant situation, somebody else might upset your life and lead to the end of a relationship more quickly than expected since you can see your future through your relationship with this person. On the professional level, Jupiter in Aries will help you to cope with your talents and skills more, be involved in something risky, but also try to express your personal talents and potential.

 

Jupiter enters Taurus on May, 16 and will stay there until the end of the year. This means that you will shoulder more responsibilities. You have to be careful with time management and the way you handle unfinished business. You should make sure you respond to everything you take on without omissions otherwise you might be exposed to people who you would not like to have such an impression of you. At the same time, you have the opportunity to cope with your physical well-being, to take up sports, and to adopt a better diet so as to be more functional in view of the demands that come up. On the professional level, you probably have the opportunity to take on another job so as to stand on your own feet financially.

 

Saturn

Saturn will be in Aquarius until March, 7 and you have the opportunity to give shape to your views and ideas and express yourself more substantially. Perhaps you have a stricter outlook on things and you become more judgemental and authoritative. You need to do so shall you have the right arguments to second what you say. Perhaps you decide to arrange things related to relatives and settle unfinished business which obstructs your need to move on. You see, you feel like dragging along people who do not seem willing to change their way of thinking. Finally, you have the opportunity to finish an educational activity and close an open chapter that stresses you as time goes by.

 

Saturn enters Pisces on March, 7 and will stay in this sign for three years. It will introduce a new very important era for your life. In 2023 the representatives of the first decanate will be under pressure and will feel like settling unfinished business because it is like a black hole in your life. You must communicate with family members and work out any misunderstandings due to your difficulty to take on your role in a limiting occasion. Perhaps you leave your family and you spread your wings so as to live alone and lay your own foundations for your future life. Perhaps you can hardly associate with the elderly and you try to understand their way of thinking. It is difficult and you must invest time and willingness. On the personal level, you might decide to have a family which is a stressful and heavy fact and you have to acknowledge that you must prove you can shoulder weights. If your relationship goes through a rough patch, it might end and you will have to look for your next place of residence since you must move out. On the professional level, you are called upon to be wise and attentive and avoid making hasty decisions that will expose you to people who can control your career.

 

Eclipses

The first set of eclipses begins with the Solar eclipse on April, 20 at the last degree of Aries in square with Pluto in Capricorn and it seems to awaken you and to highlight that you can risk a lot in your life bearing in mind that there will be losses too. On the amorous level, it is time you disturbed stagnant waters, you claimed more, and you dared to express your feelings to somebody who could change the status of your life. Perhaps you must cope with your children and their needs by understanding that you have to invest money and time in others’ needs. The Lunar eclipse that follows on May, 5 at 14 degrees Scorpio in opposition to Mercury and Uranus in Taurus seems to make your decisions more difficult and to cast a shadow over your emotional world. You are called upon to make internal overhaul and remove what is useless. You cannot ignore the effect of situations around you on you and think that you can emerge unhurt. You must turn inwards and find answers to questions you would like to avoid, end situations which you simply maintain in your life, and beware of the decay of a relationship or a collaboration or even human existence. You are scared of the latter which you exorcise but it is time you dealt with it because you want to prove you can confront it face-to-face.

 

The next set of eclipses begins with the Solar eclipse on October, 14 at 21 degrees Libra in conjunction with Mercury, in opposition to Chiron in Aries and in square with Pluto in Capricorn. It highlights your need to clarify your role within a wider social circle. Perhaps you redefine your friendships; you want to find balance between your social and personal life; and you become more extrovert since you seek a way to escape a routine that takes up all your energy. Perhaps tensions and transformations with friends take place and your relationship with them is disturbed. You need to clarify certain issues that it is time you reexamined from a new perspective. If your amorous life is not what you want, somebody from your circle of acquaintances could disturb superficial calmness and bring about a domino of developments. The Lunar eclipse on October, 28 at 5 degrees Taurus in opposition to Mercury and Mars in Scorpio will bring you down to earth and you will focus on material aspects of your life. You might have to focus on the professional level, work out your relationship with colleagues and collaborators, and try to make the right connections at work. Perhaps you think it is time you sought a new professional environment by choosing to take up an offer you have received that awakens you.

 

North Node

The North Node will be in Taurus until July, 17 and the South Node will be in Scorpio respectively. You need to stop focusing on yourself and consider your position in the wider societal frame. You must likely integrate your professional environment more smoothly and make sure you make moves which prove your will to compromise and understand others’ position. As a result, you avoid head-on confrontation. You must be patient and let time heal your relationships with people who tend to pull strings at will. Perhaps you realise that you are at a work environment in which you should not go too far because financial security is too important to challenge it. Finally, it is time you coped with your nutrition and physical exercise and you dared to change some of your habits. You realise that your body does not respond to your orders anymore. Make sure you are realistic and you understand that you must look after your constitution so as to be able to respond to daily trials.

 

The North Node enters Aries and the South Node enters Libra respectively on July, 17. It seems that the climate is more favourable for you. You may free yourself from the chains of routine and dare to talk about necessary activities to feel more creative. Perhaps you focus on activities related to your skills and hobbies as you wish to invest time in them and stop being in a job that wears you out and strips you of feelings and pleasure. Perhaps you are sociable anew, you meet friends and acquaintances, and you get in touch with people you need by your side. On the personal level, you want to renew your relationship, find ways to bring eroticism to the surface, and approach your better half. Perhaps you decide to take the next step in your relationship by having a child and this will make you have a different outlook on your partner. Finally, it is easy to flirt and fall in love because meeting people is possible again. This does not mean that new acquaintances will have solid foundations and will last in the long-run. What you most probably need is to have fun in your amorous life so you are not interested in longterm commitments.
