NOW ONTO my 2021 HAPPY-SCOPES!

 

Welcome to a new year, full of potential and promise!

 

2020 was heavy with the testing and cracking of the old systems, in the world and in our personal experience. Yes, it was very difficult, but we got to see clearly what was and wasn’t working in our lives and what made the cut for future sustainability. The tumult prepared the grounds of our experience for new birth of epic proportions!

 

Now imagine yourself (and the world) as a sturdy sprout, popping up from fertile soil to greet the dawn of a new era!  There will be new challenges but you now have a developing resilience to the rigors of profound change. You make the choice to greet the opportunities ahead with enthusiasm, hope, and faith in the Divine Benevolent plan.

 

Astrological cycles are observable measures of the natural rhythms of the Universe. Proof of the natural harmony and order of the Universe can be seen from how neatly and perfectly planetary orbits fit within each other in predictable manner. The average of the relative distance between the planets also adds up to 1.618 also know as Phi or the Golden Ratio. We see examples of this magical proof of the coherence of the Universe throughout all of life and the natural rhythms of planetary placements and orbits. Going with these rhythms brings more ease and fulfillment, going against them doesn’t!

 

Astrology is an ancient science (based in math) and there is also an art to the study of the stars that is influenced by the experience and viewpoint of the astrologer. Since I am an eternal optimist, I offer you my Happy-scopes for 2021 to help you understand the planetary energetics of each month so you can align with them for more ease and grace. I will give you the things to celebrate and show you how to make lemonade out of the any lemons that come.

 

January 2021

 

What to celebrate: There is a massive amount of forward movement at this time making January feel like a truly new year with strong support for New Years resolutions, launches, moves, and any other big decisions and plans. The most oomph is in the first half of the month before Mercury retrograde pre-shadow period begins. The second half of January brings the focus from the external and the future to the internal and the past, making it a great time to re-connect with old friends, family and other personal contacts, and ideas or projects from prior to this time.

 

What to watch out for: This month we have a tough, rare, and difficult angle between Jupiter and Uranus. Epic individual and world change is likely and those shifts could be come at such a dizzying speed it could be overwhelming and you may have some resistance to the things that are happening and feeling uncomfortable because it may be out of your hands.

 

Making lemonade: Remember your breath! Intuitive guidance through sleeping and waking dreams and synchronicities can be extra strong and sudden this month. Aligning with both your feeling and logic can help keep you afloat through any confusion or uncertainty that arises at this time. The practice of putting your hands in the prayer mudra by your heart, breathing slowly (in to the count of 5 and the same for the out breath count), and thinking of things you are grateful for, all at the same time, is now scientifically proven to link your heart and brain field. This practice helps you to access intuitive wisdom while also tapping in your intellect and rational mind. Also knowing that certainty and direction will return soon and just being with the not knowing can bring transcendent peace.

 

Aligned actions: Grow more food at home, start or participate in a community garden, get involved with local food co-op.

 

February 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Since this isn’t a time to force movement or make big plans, you will have a beautiful opportunity to catch up clearing out the papers on your desk and counters, laundry piles, and list of calls of emails to return. This month is about being the earthworm, working over old soil to make it fresh and ready for new crops.

 

Note that Chinese New Year is February 12th and on that day and the days around it, there is ancient Chinese wisdom around avoiding cleaning and certain other activities, and adding in other actions. I suggest researching the do’s and don’ts around this powerful astrological new beginning and implementing the pieces with which you have resonance.

 

What to watch out for: This month we have another tough, rare, and difficult angle between with Uranus, this time with Saturn. This could be another world and life-changing spark. Some unwelcome events could come but a simultaneous potential is the sudden and dramatic realization of your life-long wishes and work.

 

Making lemonade: Remember that you are more resilient than you think! Change is inevitable even though it is scary, it can be revitalizing and exciting! See this section for January for other big helpers for this time.

 

Aligned actions: Connect with your “tribe” or others who have like-minded viewpoints on matters that are coming up now, remember the power of community.

 

March 2021:

 

What to celebrate: We have double the sweet starry alignments compared to the salty ones this month! Mark your calendar on the dates of March 3, 4, 16, 17, 18, 21, 30, and 31. Blessings may roll in during the days around these aspects or if you have to plan something important, your efforts will have more gusto. For things of long-term consequence, especially note the dates listed from the 16th on as they will be free from the Mercury retrograde post-shadow web. Forward movement returns in a big way this month! It is one of my favorite months of this whole year!

 

What to watch out for: Pisces placements and aspects will be strong and plenty this month making it very emotional. Since there are so many amazing aspects, the odds are in favor of happy tears over sad ones but emotion will still be a key experience this month and leaving space to feel, to be, to create, and to rest in between creativity benders will be really necessary.

 

Making lemonade: Emotion can very easily be directed into beautiful art or other creations. Inspiration will be strong this month. If you can remember the power of your feelings and make a conscious choice to create alchemy with deep emotion that comes up, your lemonade will be the sweetest ever.

 

Aligned actions: Raid an art supply store, make or beautify a personal sacred space in your home, get educated on the importance of deep sleep and take steps towards improving your nightly renewal.

 

April 2021:

 

What to celebrate: This is the other of my favorite months of the whole year. Massive forward momentum, radical inspiration, and radiant outcomes are all highly likely.

 

What to watch out for: Over-commiting, over-thinking, over-doing, exhaustion, and burn out.

 

Making lemonade: You will be tired but fulfilled. This type of month where are lights are green and yelling GO! are rare. You can make up for lost time with actions taken this month. The satisfaction of accomplishment will likely be well worth the effort.

 

Aligned actions: Make a New Moon in Aries Visionboard in the time closest to April 11, keep your supplement routine up - your nervous system and adrenals will need food to fuel your action frenzy, try to avoid devices towards sleeping time to help you sleep better so you can show up for the titanic opportunities.

 

May 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Lots of amazing aspects this month and life-changing advances in the areas of education, teaching, publishing, international travel or other global connections, or spiritual studies.

 

What to watch out for: The eclipse on May 26 can bring high emotion, stress, drama, anxiety, and non-negotiable changes. Insomnia and an increase in daily anxiety is more likely. Mercury going  retrograde will only add to the confusion and uncertainty. Be extra careful driving, walking, biking, or just moving about.

 

Making lemonade: Noteworthy news is likely coming at a time when you will have to wait for more information before making longer-range plans and decisions from what happens. Just knowing that you won’t likely have the info you need for making the big plan or decision until possibly into July can help you focus your efforts on an interim plan. Making a plan that you know will only be in affect for weeks or a couple of months will help you not lock into anything that needs more flexibility now than you realize.

 

Aligned actions: Stop texting or doing other things on your phone while driving, biking, or walking, research and utilize the Emotional Freedom Technique for anxiety, uncertainty, fear, and anything else that comes up in this time of radical change, know that the storylines (personal and global) that come up now are still in process and avoid making assumptions about any absolutes that may seem like they are unworkable.

 

June 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Travel opportunities, upgrades to devices or transportation, revitalizing change, new beginnings, surprising opportunities, and tender times with family.

 

What to watch out for: The eclipse on June 10 can bring stress, drama, anxiety, and non-negotiable changes. Insomnia from May could continue as could the experience of plans changing and things that seemed set being called into question. Be extra, extra careful driving, walking, biking, or just moving about.

 

Making lemonade: We are still in eclipse ‘season’. It is unavoidable and usually stressful but the chance to crack out of that old matrix in which you were trapped forever is very strong! The same pressures that create stress also can create diamonds. Your new shine is about to emerge! See the Making lemonade section for May as all pieces will apply this month, too.

 

Aligned actions: Go barefoot outside on natural earth (soil, stone, sand) when you can ~ the 7.83 hz frequency of the Earth field is soothing and healing to the human energy field and rubber and plastic on the soles of shoes block out our connection to it. Take sea salt baths to keep your aura clear as high emotion within us and around us tends to clog our circuits.

 

July 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Growing clarity, necessary information to make decisions based on new and events, more family time, housing or home-improvement opportunities.

 

What to watch out for: The continuation of Cancer placements (which got strong starting in May) brings high emotions front and center. Topics of family, housing, homes/real estate, and your inner psyche are brought into focus. Empathic overwhelm is very likely this month. Even if you aren’t going through something big, you will likely be around or supporting others who are.

 

Making lemonade: So much of life goes on underneath our surface. Unresolved traumas can serve as beacons to attract more drama and trauma. During starry alignments like we have now, the wonderful opportunity comes to integrate and heal these energies which can shift your manifesting set points. Take the opportunity to go deep with trauma clearing processes and therapies.

 

Aligned actions: Work on healing and integrating trauma with these powerful processes: Neurolinguistic Programming, EMDR, Brandon Bays ~ The Journey, Byron Katie ~ The Work, Michael Brown ~ The Presence Process.

 

August 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Boosts in discipline and concentration, increase in analytic focus or gifts, open stars for planning and strategizing.

 

What to watch out for: The Virgo energies that dominate this month can bring notable material accomplishment and productivity. These same energies can bring harsh criticism of self or others or from others to you. Too much thinking, planning, or strategizing will could make you feel like your head is going to explode and mental exhaustion is very likely.

 

Making lemonade: This is a fantastic month to make a business plan, analyze previous data with intention to put together a plan, organizing, cleaning out clutter. Being productive and systematic with your efforts this month can help to channel the extra mental Mercurial energies into outcomes you will be proud of and relieved that they were finally dealt with.

 

Aligned actions: Make list of: home repairs, pending personal necessities (like haircuts, etc.), medical diagnostics or yearly check-up’s, family needs along these same lines, back-to-school shopping, work to-do’s, and anything else that really needs to be dealt with. Break down these lists into daily work throughout the month to systematically pull it all through. Enlist help if necessary through professional service or household member designation, for catching up with things like house cleaning, laundry, etc.

 

September 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Opportunities to heal and enhance relationships and your personal experience of relationships, “blasts from the past” in many forms are likely to come in and some of them could bring great joy. Perfect helpers in any area of life could show up and make you feel like prayers are being answered with their arrival.

 

What to watch out for: Mercury is going to start doing its retrograde thing again bringing changes to plans and casting some things that seemed set into uncertainty. It is a time to go within and backward, avoiding too much planning except with highly flexible and short-term commitments. Issues in relationships that never quite got resolved are likely to come up now.

 

Making lemonade: Mercury retrograde brings up unresolved things from the past not to torcher you but to help you bring them to a further state of resolution. Knowing this helps you to keep your perspective aligned towards the end of goal of healing. Once truly healed, you won’t need to deal with it in future retrogrades ~ a truly exciting concept!

 

Aligned actions: Expect plan changes, embrace uncertainty, proactively schedule support through bodywork or counseling.

 

October 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Jupiter is going direct mid-month bringing with it a renewal of hope, faith, and solutions. Surprise money could show up. It could be a good time to follow a hunch about lottery or sweepstakes entry.

 

What to watch out for: Mercury continues its retrograde and the planets continue to be focused on partnerships. All points listed for September also apply this month

 

Making lemonade: The energies abounding now are purely alchemical. Alchemy is the process of turning lead to gold. Any heaviness that comes in now can be transformed into awesomeness. Do the work to get the gold.

 

Aligned actions: Get out in nature ~ hugging a tree or just being outside in the elements can help you remember that whatever strong emotions come up, they will pass, and beauty and magic is still afoot, even if they feel more hidden right now.

 

November 2021:

 

What to celebrate: Spiritual or financial breakthroughs. Venus pre-retrograde energies could bring in money from past clients or that was due but never paid. Sagittarius influences can expand optimism and bring fun surprises. New opportunities in business or other areas of life may show up from the return to an eclipse season. The days around the eclipse on November 19 is accompanied by two of my favorite aspects which could bring random happy surprises.

 

What to watch out for: A Lunar eclipse in Taurus returns us back to the stress, uncertainty, and radical changes intrinsic in these cycles. See more about what this tends to bring in May and June listings.

 

Making lemonade: The starting of the Taurus/Scorpio eclipse cycle will bring in focus on your finances and deep money relationships. Rejoice knowing that eclipses bring us closer to our North Node path, which is the pat of our Highest Expression in this lifetime!

 

Aligned actions: Get clear on your goals for your finances, self-sufficiency on all levels, and living in sync with the Earth through green practices. Reduce, re-use, recycle. Guard your physical body, stay away from sketchy situations, follow your intuition as to what you do and where you go, and don’t antagonize a person who is already on edge.

 

December 2021:

 

What to celebrate: More new beginnings or glorious manifestations on the topics of writing, publishing, long-distance travel, personal horizon broadening, international connections (languages, business, etc.), Sagittarian luck and positivity.

 

What to watch out for: Venus retrograde will put business and work into questioning mode. Changes in direction or considerations of this may be brought into the forefront. It is not a time to launch anything new that is intended to be long-term but it is a great time to research, experiment, or fine-tune work that has already been done and launched including improvements, enhancements or edits to projects already out. There are many things to avoid during this transit including major and permanent beauty enhancements or design projects and major love or money commitments.

 

Making lemonade: During Venus retrograde, the Universe wants to heal your relationships, your finances and your self-esteem. Any inner work done on these topics can brilliantly bring you towards deepened self-love, fulfilling relationships, and happy finances.

 

Aligned actions: Take a raw and honest account of your relationship with self, others, and money and commit to positively adjust your vibrational set points. Enlist the help of counselors or practitioners who provide services that really work on the emotional root causes of your experiences.

 

May your 2021 be blessed!!
