January 2012 for Virgo

Happy New Year dear Virgo!
The world will not end in 2012! Please read the forecast for 2012 to better understand this much expected and feared year..

The year of 2012 will be ruled by the moon, in the sign of Aries, the fist sign of the zodiac, indicating that it is going to be a year of major decisions, with the focus on independence, innovations but also a sense of impatience and a need to start over.
You dear Virgo more than anybody else, will be willing to make changes in your life, which will be a consequence of digging into the mysteries of life and rising to a new experience and a new beginning.

With a year ruled by the moon, we tend to be more sensitive and emotional; family issues will be predominant, along with an urge to review the past and build a new future based on new ideas and new mottos.
A tongue–sharpening transit between Mercury and Mars opens the year of 2012, which spur arguments and excessive massive media communication. We say it as it is. New Year’s Eve celebration will be restless and people will be impatient.

Until the 23rd none of the planets will be retrograding, making this the best time to start anything in our lives; whatever we start is guaranteed to grow fast and in the right direction. Start a new project during this time and you will be surprised at how fast it will develop.
The first planet to retrograde in 2012 is Mars in the sign of Virgo until April 10th, making this period to be slow on decision-making; as a result we will momentarily experience a lack of enthusiasm.

Criticisms and provocative comments could be your theme this New Year’s eve, dear Virgo, so if you wish to avoid conflicts and hurt someone close to you, use this energy to make a beautiful speech welcoming the New Year… it may work….

On the 7th, you have the most practical ideas to make a dream project come true.

On January 8th, Mercury moves to Capricorn, and we are more focused and practical with our thinking. We are thinking seriously about the issues related to media, communication and travel. Mercury travels through Capricorn until January 27th.
This position of Mercury will enhance communications with the ones you love, and you may hear a suggestion to move in together with someone you are in love with.
Your ruler planet, Mercury in aspect with Uranus and Jupiter today, fill your head with original ideas but also and unexpectedly with uncertainty as well. But you can turn this energy into an intellectual discipline that will help you to concentrate on what you want to achieve.

The first full moon of the year, is 18º Cancer with the Sun in Capricorn, on the 9th, at 3:30 Am (Eastern Time) motivating us to balance our inner needs with the external duties and obligations. This opposition, Cancer/Capricorn represents the mother and the father; caring and emotional needs versus responsibilities and focus on work.
The moon is in dynamic aspect with Mars indication the urge to finish the tasks we have initiated before.
This is a good day to reformulate our ideas and concepts of reality.
For you dear Virgo, this full moon can be fun. You will be amused by friends and will have all the energy to make your dreams come true, finishing up on an important project. So try to share your time between your friends and your ambitions.
You have everything one needs to accomplish any task no matter how hard you have to work. Mars in your sign is giving you the fuel and the courage you need.

Your mind is powerful, sharp and witty on the 13th. This is a great day to deal with your investments and finances.
Nobody can compete with you dear Virgo in intellectual debates or physical energy.

Venus is moving to the sensitive sign of Pisces right after a conjunction with Neptune (the ruler of Pisces) on January 14th. People will be concern with charity, generosity and peace. This is an excellent day to meditate, to spend a romantic night with the one we love and to help a charitable foundation.
We may hear about some noble gesture or a peaceful act somewhere on our planet.
Venus remains in Pisces until February 8th.
Venus is totally comfortable in the sign of Pisces; the sign Venus is in a state of excitement and even more so in your sector of relationships.
You are the winner dear Virgo, this is the best time of the year to find the love of your life if you are single, to set the wedding date or to move in with your dearest.
Love is the theme of this position of Venus, if you are attached use this time to enjoy romantic nights with your lover.

The Sun enters Aquarius, the sign of humanity, fraternity and futuristic matters on January 22nd. Your focus now goes to your health and work projects. This is a good time to change your diet or to take care of a specific health condition.

There’s a New Moon at 02º Aquarius on the 23rd at 3:40 AM (Eastern Time) representing a need for freedom. This new moon, amplifies the urge for equality on social and economic levels.
Mercury is trinning Mars during this new moon, turning our focus to communication and transport and travel.
We feel free to show our opinion today with grace and objectivity.
Your energy to accomplish your tasks today is amazing dear Virgo. It’s a great day to start a new project and to move on in a direction that needs courage and intellectual skills; and those attributes you have in abundance.

Today Mars also start its retrograde period, which happens every two years in the sign of Virgo until April 13th. Mars will be in Virgo most of the year of 2012, instead of its normal two months sojourns, giving us extra time to figure out and fix what’s not working in our lives. It’s a good time to resolve self-esteem problems and to eliminate martyrdom and passive-aggressive behavior.
As you know Mars is in your sign and will be there until July 3rd, which is a very long period; usually it spends 2 to 2 and half months in your sign, but you are lucky and can count with a huge amount of drive to pursue your desires.
You will be more direct than usual, but more critical dear Virgo; therefore you can hurt the ones you love.
Wait until mid April to launch that project you have in the works, and during this retrograde period, get more research done for your project, work on the details and use your eagle eyes to perfect your project.

We are impelled to analyze, criticize and improve things in our lives. If you have any big project to start this year, skip the period Mars is retrograding and analyze your project in detail before you launched after April 13th.
During this first new moon of 2012, dream the impossible dream, take a quantum leap and let the magic of the universe manifest in your life.

Mercury enters the sign of Aquarius on the 27th, turning our mindset to fraternal issues and new ways of thinking.
Mercury will occupy your area of work and health making this a good time to use your intellect and your sharp mind to work on projects and tasks.

Don’t forget to read the forecasting for 2012 in order to understand this so important year in your life. What is happening below is a reflection of what happens above.

Astrology is not a predictive practice, at least not in my point of view, but a way of being informed and aware of the vibrations that will be upon us and allowing us to change consciously according to that time frame.
We always have the free will to adjust things to our benefit when we are aware of them.
It’s simple: take an umbrella if the forecast announces it is going to rain!
Have a beautiful month!
