Virgo Rising / Virgo Sun
A mixed bag for Virgos in 2022. Are you worried about what people are saying and thinking behind your back? Don’t; it’s all good! You’ve applied diligence and carefully checked every detail. The planet of good luck, Jupiter, is watching your back this year, and if you can stick out tough times until September, you will be glad you did.
You have what it takes, and the stars don’t want to see you being too hard done by. No doubt you’ve also considered any financial viability or restrictions around your income. To achieve your goals in 2022, you’re prepared to live off bread and water.
Virgo’s are blessed with a penetrating intelligence; simply put, you have the mind of a detective. You also love a schedule you can adhere to, but you will want to avoid a build-up of anxiety, so be sure as your birthday rolls around, there is room for fun and spontaneity!
This year you will also want to seek a partner, teacher or coach to bounce ideas off. There is no need to control outcomes that don’t or may never exist. Marriages are also looking a lot more stable as Virgos seem to be out of a “honeymoon stage” and into building dreams: more like ‘adults’.
Meditation, yoga, sound healing, book groups and even acting or singing will be well worth committing to, especially as part of your New Year’s Eve resolution. Who cares if you’re a beginner? With a partner or friend by your side, you will likely stick with it longer than you think. You will need to release some steam. Laugh at yourself if you have to.
If you’re into sport, there’s a good chance an accolade could come your way as you start a new year. You’ve visualised your performance. You know who your competition is, now power up like a warrior; you’re out for a win. You may not be the favourite, so give them something to discuss.
Mercury Retrogrades through the earth signs in 2022 will be easier for you than most. Be prepared to flesh it out and work with others if you want to see success. You can add the finer points and lend your experience as you go back over old ground and things that were said that could have been dealt with differently, particularly around money.
However, the second retrograde in May will have you dealing with partnerships or lovers that are separated or estranged. Are you going back over old ground? Your karmic connection is firing things up again. By September’s Mercury Retrograde, you will be more open-minded and feel you are back talking about shared goals. Make sure others aren’t gossiping about you unnecessarily. Please don’t give them fuel to the flame. Secrets are best kept in the vault.
You will tire of having to go back and set the record straight, so be careful what you say around colleagues and sprouting about any ambitions. It’s a help or hindrance situation as some will not want to see you succeed. Their issue concerns your ability to make money, an inheritance or what you have acquired slowly and surely. Jealousy abounds but from where? Keep your financial affairs to yourself this year if possible. You don’t need to explain yourself.
By Halloween and through into mid-January 2023, Mars in Retrograde will shine a light on potential quarrelling as you try to stand up for yourself.
Although you may want to outsmart others, the issue is more about finding a proper channel to express yourself. You may feel repressed, but do you have the emotional wisdom to get through the tough times?
Sometimes you may have to let your work or service to others do the talking. Something needs to be played out, so as complex as it is. You need to take a back seat and see what transpires.
I hope you find time to hide away at home or work creating your next masterpiece. You have plenty of ideas to seed. Do you spend a lot of time in a studio? Musicians, writers, painters, and spiritual types can expect to do well in 2022.
You will be able to tap into the depths of your emotional psyche and reap the rewards in 2023, or for some, as early as the last full moon eclipse in Taurus on 8 November.
During the last two months of 2022, pay close attention to the full and new moon phases. By Christmas, realities around your finances and career should become evident. Romance is also in the air with someone foreign or different. They catch your eye with their energy. Have a little fun alone before telling the world; it may be short term. You are hard to please, and this person may not live up to your lofty expectations long term.
Make sure you reconcile your December 2021 spending. That could put a damper on things unless you stick to your budget. You are attracted to the little luxuries in life and tasteful surroundings. Artistic endeavours can bolster your account and make sure you enjoy more time at home, particularly if you’ve recently upgraded or beautified your space. Your living situation will reflect a more contemplative, spiritual realm. It won't be easy to let go of control around money, a partner, or your career this year.
Let your life flow. It will benefit you in the longer term, especially working with others, as you start to open up to a different perspective. Overthinking or staying stuck in your opinion will not serve you well.
