If we were looking to catch a break after the last two years of intense astrological occurrences, 2022 is that sweet ethereal coating of magic dust. As I mentioned in last month’s column, Jupiter will be in the hopeful and creative energy of Pisces. We can expect this year to ask us all to find our greater purpose and come together. Expect a lot of energy bursting out of the seams this year in the areas of art and spirituality. It’s time to find your inner artist and connect with the collective.
It is not a stretch to say that the last few years have given us a lot of turmoil. And while I can’t predict that things will continue to be unpredictable, what I can say as someone who studies astrology is that by 2022 we will find hope in each other. Looking back in history to when Jupiter was last in Pisces, we can anticipate this year’s events having a lasting impact on the collective consciousness.
In the past, Jupiter in Pisces brought us the first release of a Beatles recording, the first airing of the Oprah Winfrey show, the first Ghibli film and the opening of Andy Warhol’s factory to name a few. It also gave way to the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Nixon resignation, the arrest of Nelson Mandela and the death of Marilyn Monroe. We are entering a year with events that will impact culture as we know it and bring people together in one way or another.
To help you navigate these transformative waters, here is a playlist of songs reflecting that Pisces in Jupiter vibe and some words of wisdom for your year based on your sun and rising signs.
