2020 will undoubtedly be a year to remember. So far, it’s brought us the coronavirus epidemic and arguably the world’s largest worldwide civil unrest, demanding justice for Black lives and police reform. What’s even more bizarre? Only half of the year has passed. We still have to deal with the 2020 presidential election, the second (or third?) wave of coronavirus, and who knows what else is in store for us with six months to go. So, while 2020 is officially nutzo, its astrology may explain why everything has been so tumultuous, furious, and action-packed. In fact, astrologers have been warning us about 2020 for years, as this year will bring a slew of uncommon, powerful, and life-altering planetary moments that will shake our personal, political, and societal foundations, requiring us to adjust to a completely new notion of “normal.”
Astrologers have long predicted that the uncommon and epic celestial occurrences of 2020, which will occur throughout the year, will result in large-scale transformations, cataclysmic events, and complete paradigm shifts, but no one knew how these energies would manifest in real life.

In 2020, what zodiac sign will you be?
The Age of Aquarius, a new astrological era, has begun, and this is how it is affecting our life. The Age of Aquarius is now in full swing. For many, there was a noticeable shift in energy from 2020 to 2021, albeit both years were a roller coaster.
Is 2021 an auspicious year for astrology?
If we made a list of the year’s advantages and disadvantages, it’s safe to say the disadvantages would outnumber the advantages. The truth is that, no matter where you live in the world, 2020 was likely a difficult year for you and others you care about. What’s the good news? The outlook for 2021 is substantially brighter, according to astrological predictions.
Experts believe that we will see healing, mending, and growth in the coming months.”
According to Aliza Kelly, a New York-based astrologer and host of the Stars Like Us podcast, 2020 was a “extraordinary year” from an astrological perspective. “Multiple major planets formed remarkable alignments that had not been seen in years in the course of a single year. This was the much-discussed Saturn-Pluto conjunction, which was last experienced in 1982, when one million protesters flocked to New York to protest nuclear weapons expansion.
What do astrologers predict for the year 2021?
Without a question, 2020 will be remembered as the year that altered the globe. Numerous prominent planets were establishing alignments that had not been seen in years while looking at the astrology of 2020, one in particular being the Saturn-Pluto conjunction. This essentially signified a cosmic reset, which occurs every 40 years or so and usually corresponds with some form of huge world upheaval.
If the world was flipped upside down in 2020, 2021 will be a year of healing and refocusing on our beliefs and ambitions, both as people and as a nation. The tremendous changes that occurred in 2020 have had a direct impact on the astrology of 2021, and it has provided us with many insights into how we are living our lives and what our new normal looks like.
The movements of Jupiter and Saturn have dominated astrology predictions for 2021. Jupiter is a planet that signifies freedom and fun, while Saturn represents structure and hard work. They are the ultimate yin and yang, the polar opposites who work together to bring energy equilibrium. For the first time in nearly two centuries, they are coming together in a new element this year.
These planets will be in Aquarius for the majority of 2021, and as Aquarius is the sign that rules social connections, technology, individuality, and ingenuity, we should expect significant progress in these areas. ” Our life came to a halt in 2020, and we had to get imaginative with how we would stay connected. The majority of our lives were relocated online as a result of this. But this is just the start. Even as we’ve begun to revert to more traditional in-person encounters, the online element remains with the continuation of live streaming events and the use of technological advancements to disseminate information to a larger audience. Lilly explains. “This alignment’s air element brings a fresh, new energy to the table, making it an excellent moment to start over and make the required modifications to achieve your objectives.
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system and one of Astrology’s most important planets. It has a protective aspect and is associated with luck, wealth, spirituality, fortune, and wisdom. It only goes retrograde once a year for around four months, but in 2021, it will be the only retrograde in history to change signs and present two separate themes during its retrograde.
It begins the year in Aquarius, but moves into Pisces in mid-May, where it will stay for about a month before retrograding back into Aquarius at the end of July, where it will stay until the conclusion of the year. While Jupiter is retrograde in the emotional sign of Pisces, we should meditate on our emotional needs and take care of our mental health. As the sun returns to Aquarius, the emphasis may move back to working well as part of a team to effect change and improve fortune.
Lilly claims that “This retrograde, like every other, provides a good opportunity to reflect on our life. While Jupiter is in Pisces, you may notice that you are devoting too much emphasis to some situations or that you are not dealing effectively with daily concerns. During Jupiter’s retrograde in Aquarius, you might find that you’ve taken on more than you can handle in a group project or that you’re too set in your ways when it comes to your beliefs.
Jupiter’s impacts will be felt on a cultural level as well, because it is a sign that reaches beyond the personal. When it is in Aquarius, which is known for being humanitarian and focused on the total rather than the individual, this will become quite apparent.
In these uncertain times, Lilly believes that December will be a turning point for hope. This is when Jupiter enters Pisces in the final days of the year, and we also see the year’s final eclipse. “As the year 2021 draws to a close, we are likely to see a greater outpouring of compassion for our fellow citizens. This mutual trust can be extremely restorative.
For hundreds of years, people have studied the various celestial bodies, such as the sun, moon, and planets, and their movements. It may be traced all the way back to the Babylonian and Mesopotamian eras, approximately 3000 BC. Understanding how the shifting and positioning of the celestial bodies affects our personalities, life choices, and interpersonal interactions can help us make sense of the world around us.
According to astrology, what will happen in 2022?
According to Jennifer Freed, a psychological astrologer, 2022 will be a year of reevaluation, mending, and quick expansion. The planet Neptune, which is associated with compassion, will be in conjunction with Jupiter, which is associated with abundance. According to Freed, “we’ll have to employ those planets’ energies carefully.”
What is your zodiac sign’s current age?
Astrologers agree that astrological ages last about 2000 years, and we’ve been in the age of Pisces for the past two millennia.
What is the expected duration of the Aquarian Age?
While “Aquarius Season” lasts 30 days, the Age of Aquarius is said to last 2,160 years. So, what is Aquarius Season, and what is the difference between the season and the age? Let’s go back and look at the context of everyone’s favorite water-bearer in both modern astrology and its ancient astronomy roots.
Aquarian Roots
Aquarius is a Latin term that means “water-carrier, water-pourer.” Its astrological sign is water, yet it has the appearance of an electrical jolt. Aquarius connects us to forces of originality, eccentricity, independence, bold expression, and epiphanies of all kinds, and properly so. It yearns for innovation and points us in the direction of what is possible in the future. It catalyzes creativity, new discoveries, or exhilarating novelty when sparked. Technology advances are fueled by activated Aquarius energy in our culture, which is arguably what brought us the Internet. However, Aquarius energy pushes us to think about social justice as a component of the collective and communal experience.
Aquarius, like all planets and zodiac signs, isn’t all excitement and forward-thinking movement; it also has a dark side. It can be distant, non-committal, impetuous, alienated, or restless in Aquarius. Aquarius energy enjoys getting things started but not necessarily finishing them. Keep an eye out for the famed Aquarian “Last Unicorn Syndrome,” in which it believes it is the first and only person to think of an idea.
Aquarius is the archetypal misfit, lone wolf, or mad scientist. It’s a rebel who sometimes has a cause and sometimes doesn’t. Aquarius was ruled or regulated by Saturn in traditional astrology, while many modern astrologers now identify it with Uranus because Uranus had not yet been found. Saturn is said to be the “night ruler,” whereas Uranus is said to be the “day ruler.”
While we all have Aquarius or Uranus in our natal astrology charts, its influence on our lives or self-expression is determined by our unique natal astrology chart. Those born under the sign of Aquarius (Sun, Moon, or Rising) may feel particularly drawn to the Aquarius Season or Age. Having your Sun or Moon in the 11th house or touching the planet Uranus can make you identify with Aquarian characteristics, but that is an astrology topic for another day. How does the Aquarius Season or the Aquarius Age affect us if some of us are more “Aquarian” than others? Is it merely a “New Age” word, or does it represent communal wisdom?
Historical Context: The “Age of Aquarius
While everyone of us has a unique astrological blueprint, the current position of the stars and planets in the sky adds another depth to our specific experience. We all feel the energy when the Sun is in the sign of Aquarius, just as we do when there is a new moon (like on February 4 in Aquarius). The Age of Aquarius, on the other hand, is a much larger cycle with less clarity.
Astrological ages refer to the evolution and development of civilization as a whole, rather than just an individual.
Humankind has gone through six primary periods, which correspond to the 12 tropical zodiac signs, according to astrologers all across the world. Each one lasts approximately 2,100 years. Because the time frame is so wide, it’s difficult to say when each of these time frames begins or ends. Of course, large-scale cycles aren’t exclusive to Western astrology. These patterns are also mentioned in the Mayan calendar and the Sanskrit scriptures’ Kali Yuga.
When modern astrologers speak of the Age of Aquarius, they are referring to a phenomenon involving the Earth’s backward motion and its connection to the sign of Aquarius. An ancient astronomer came up with the concept of the “precession of the zodiac” around 190 B.C.E. Because of the wobble in the Earth’s rotation, the constellation behind the Sun at Vernal Equinox or the eclipticpath of the Sun through the sky changes. (Earth, it turns out, isn’t as steady as we thought, and it has a retrograde cycle.)
The qualities of each zodiac Sun sign are carried over into the Astrological Age of that time. We can observe important communal themes that have been influenced by the “age” we are living in in this way. According to Nicholas Campion’s research, the Age of Aquarius began around 1447 A.D.E. in the twentieth century and will last until 3597 A.D.E. According to some astrologers, it started in 2012. Around 1999, we began to hear more about the Age of Aquarius and its connections to the Mayan Calendar.
I prefer astrologer Susan Miller’s chronology theories, which place the Age of Aries between 2000 B.C.E. and 1 A.C.E., with a lot of Greek and Roman conflict. The Age of Pisces, with its emphasis on spirituality, coincides with the birth of many of the world’s great faiths. We’re presently in the Age of Aquarius, a period marked by rapid technological developments (ahem, the Internet or robotics) or (hopefully) a shift toward communal consciousness and community.
The energies of Aquarius assist us in shifting and evolving structures that allow us to go forward into what is fresh and next in our progress. Activate and enjoy your own Aquarian nature through community, action, a new creative endeavour, or even recognizing your weirdness, whether the Age of Aquarius has begun or is about to begin. Perhaps try something new or finally figure out how to use some of your phone’s more advanced functions. It’s a time to gather together in community while embracing our particular uniqueness, no matter how you catalyze and connect to Aquarius.
Rebecca Farrar earned her M.A. in Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness (PCC) from the California Institute of Integral Studies. “Stargazing: Re-enchantment Through Language” was the title of her thesis, which combined philology, consciousness studies, and enchantment with the stars. Rick Tarnas, archetypal astrologer, cosmologist Brian Swimme, activist Joanna Macy, and psychotherapist Stan Grof have all taught her. C.G. Jung, Owen Barfield, Bill Plotkin, Marianne Woodman, Thomas Berry, and Clarissa Pinkola Estes are among her other influences. Cosmicopia, Burning Man’s first astrological camp, was also founded by me. Most recently, I was featured in the She Wolfe Tarot deck and an upcoming documentary called Conscious: Fulfilling Our Higher Evolutionary Potential. She belongs to the International Society for Astrological Research (ISAR), the San Francisco Astrological Society (SFAS), the Association for the Study of Women and Mythology (ASWM), and the Depth Psychology Alliance, among others (DPA).

What was Jesus’ take on astrology?
I believe that God created astrology as a tool for us to better understand ourselves and to use as a spiritual tool. Numerous bible texts, in my opinion, support astrology. As a Christian, I try to remember what Jesus said. “There shall be signs in the sun, moon, and stars,” Christ predicted in Luke 21:25, referring to the importance of astrology. He explains the value of astrology with his pupils, as well as how it might be used as a sign of his return. Why would Jesus provide us this critical knowledge if we are not intended to understand the energies of the planets and signs, and if he was actually against it? Just as the three wise men knew Jesus would be born under the star in the sky that led them to him lying in the manger, Jesus warned us that when he returns, there will be signals in the sky.

What does the Chinese calendar predict for the year 2021?
The year 2020 was the year of the Rat, which represents regeneration and the potential for new endeavors to succeed. As we now know, the globe did undergo a significant period of change, but not in the way that everyone had anticipated. Political upheaval, social unrest, economic downfall, and a once-in-a-century worldwide pandemic all had a significant impact on our lives. While the year of the Rat may appear to be a disaster, it does provide us with a fresh opportunity: to transform the world for the better.
One of the five elements defines each Chinese zodiac year. The year 2021 will be the Year of the Metal Ox, and its message could not be clearer: Those who work hard will succeed. It’s extremely difficult.” Susan Levitt, a professional astrologer and author of five books, including Taoist Astrology, believes it’s about hard labor, duty, and discipline. “Oxen are dependable and robust work animals in agricultural communities. They were the ones who ensured humanity’s existence. So what happened in the Rat year carries over into the Ox year to finish it, ground it, and bring it to a close. In 2021, the year of the Metal Ox, here’s what each Chinese zodiac sign can do to profit.
