The beginning of 2022 augurs a very active year for the various planetary movements that will occur in January . The spirit of the Capricorn season and the retrograde travel of Venus are events that not only say goodbye to the 2021, they will also welcome the New Year. But they are not the ones that stand out the most, astrologically speaking.
The first new moons and full of the year, as well as the first Mercury retrograde, the Aquarian season and the end of the transits of two planets (Uranus and Venus) will be those that will be significantly affecting the energies of the universe in January.
The first new moon of 2022
The energy of the Capricorn season, which began with the winter solstice, will peak on January 2 with the first new Moon of 2022 . According to Bustle, this energy will cause us to set solid goals for the beginning of the year, so it is the ideal time to express our wishes and focus on how to make them tangible.
The first Mercury retrograde of 2022
Mercury, the planet that governs all forms of communication and the way of expressing ourselves, will enter Aquarius in the first days of January, but will be regressing to Capricorn on 14. Astrologers explain that this period, which will end on February 3, is ideal for reviewing recent decisions and focusing on the way we interact with other people .
Full moon of 17 January
Planetary energies will continue altering the cosmos with the arrival of the full Moon on 17 that will occur in the sign of Cancer. It is predicted that our emotions will intensify that will trigger profound revelations.
Change of the lunar nodes
On 18 a astrological phenomenon that we do not witness in the 2021. It is about the change of sign of the lunar nodes, which are associated with our destiny. The north and south node will enter Taurus and Scorpio , respectively, causing new learnings in our need for power and in how we accept changes.
Aquarius season
On 19 the sun will leave the disciplined and rigid sign of Capricorn to enter Aquarius, a sign whose spirit is more progressive and innovative. This essence will make us connect more with friends and get involved in projects with a cause.
The end of the retrogrades of Uranus and Venus
The 18 January, Uranus will end a 5-month setback, a movement that will cause unexpected changes, so astrologers suggest keeping an open mind to the transformation that is coming.
For its part, Venus will end its retrograde period on 29 January after 6 weeks orbiting “backwards.”
