A Few Words for 2012

The new year is here, the infamous 2012.  What does it hold for you and the world?  2011 was very, very developmental.  As I have said before, things tend to continue along the same lines they have been on; therefore 2012 very well could serve to continue the trends of 2011 politically, economically, and even in catastrophic situations of war, earthquake or other natural disaster.

By the way the word disaster is related to the concept of astrology: dis-a-star (“bad star”).  Cata-strophe means literally “downturn/bad-wind”; however “strophe” is related to “strobe” as in strobe-light, an alternating light source; and we certainly can see twinkling lights in the sky at night and then some stars portending light and then darkness.

I don’t need astrology to predict that the war/military-industrial-complex/banking party will win in the US in November 2012; i.e. a Republican or Democrat, with the same corporate backers.  Syria looks next to be on the list for regime change, aided and abetted by western quasi-governmental organizations.  And it is not difficult to see the further cracking and eventual breaking of the various national currencies, paving the way for a more international currency system, and all of the changes across the board to life that will bring.

As far as earthquakes, tsunamis, and other natural disasters; all I can say is that trends continue to be trends.  If these manifestations have been escalating, they may continue to escalate.  So while some people are waking up in different ways, and that is a trend itself, for a great number of things the trend is downwards.  The old must make way for the new, so the old cycles out, and that is a good thing.

Tuesday, Jan 3
An upbeat and ebullient (bubbly) tone will characterize the day; don’t be too surprised at spontaneous promises or moments of inspiration.  (Sun tridecile Jupiter)

Wednesday, Jan 4
Energy and confidence may be elusive qualities, and it may be easy to try to spend, eat, or indulge your doubts away.  You may feel good for a while, but the costs will become apparent soon enough.  Dishonest, deceitful, and/or addictive behaviors are highlighted; physical vitality may be down, opening the way for chronic conditions to set in.  (Sun semisquare Neptune, Venus quintile Jupiter)

Thursday, Jan 5
No peaking influences

Friday, Jan 6
Relationships and passion are highlighted, not necessarily working entirely well together, but interactions should have a good amount of interest behind them.  (Venus quincunx Mars)

Saturday, Jan 7
Emotions and/or the experience of love should be strong, but a few days from now you may be wondering where all that passion and intensity came from.  (Venus sesquiquadrate Pluto)

Sunday, Jan 8
Discussions and interactive situations should be lively, offering profitable opportunities.  Be careful of exaggeration and unintended amplification of issues or facts.  Provocative subjects may be brought out as well.  (Mercury trine Jupiter, square Uranus)

Monday, Jan 9
Relationship situations may be at issues, as well as retaining individuality within the boundaries of relationships as well.  Intolerance of restricting, possessive, or controlling situations may become acute, causing surges in dissatisfaction and push people closer to sudden, radical moves.  (Sun quintile Uranus, Venus square Juno)
