2012: Adapt to the Unexpected

Honor and Embrace Compassion

2012 starts with a very positive twist. The beneficent planet Jupiter will have been in very good aspect to the Sun and Pluto on the Winter Solstice, so we will start seeing new structures in our lives that bring some newly found comfort and beauty. What to keep in mind is that this will be in the midst of great change.

Uranus, the planet of the unexpected, is in a stressful aspect to Pluto, the planet of transformation throughout this year. The theme of January through March will be, “enjoy the beauty of our lives and adapt to constant change”—a bit like standing on the bow of a ship at sunset—it is a gorgeous experience and we must develop our “sea legs” to adapt to all that is happening around us.

While an intuitive friend could certainly help you navigate, a professional psychic could really alleviate fears—reality combined with compassion can truly help us when our personal reality and the future seem to change every minute.

The astrological beginning of the year—the Aries Ingress on March 20—has the same overall theme of the year, big changes. What we find with this rebirth period of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere and harvest in the Southern Hemisphere is that communication technologies will be very much in the forefront. This is happening amidst a very favorable time for taking action in the area of real estate and personal comfort issues.

The Summer Solstice on June 21, after a “reality check” eclipse in May, emphasizes this theme. This will be an intense time when we must continually reexamine ourselves and our relationships, along with our place in the world. This is not a time to panic. It is a time to realize that every new change, every new reality, in our lives is an opportunity to realize a greater dream for ourselves and everyone we love.

Those of you who are compassionate towards others’ fears during this year and adapt to the many changes around you, will be really big winners late this year. 2012 will be the “end of time” for the painful issues that were stopping you and a new beginning of a truly fulfilling life.
