I’ve been asked by many to provide my annual forecast for the year, so I’ve finally sat down to write it. we’re in for an exciting and changing time in 2009, both physically and spiritually, and I’m glad I’ve finally been able to write about it.
I will be using my own methods for combining Astrology and Numerology in this forecast. You will see throughout the post a reference to an Astrological Sign/Planet/House and then a Numerological number (in parentheses) next to it, for example - Jupiter(7). This is my way of indicating the Astrology Planet, Angle, House, or Sign followed by the corresponding Numerological number that I attribute to that astrological element (planet, angle, house, or sign). For reference if you check our Symbol Guide page, in the menu on the right, I will also include those corresponding numbers on that page.
So, let’s get started with what I see coming Astrologically for 2009, and hang on to your seat! First notice that Jupiter(7) leaves Capricorn(8) to enter Aquarius(7). Jupiter(7) was previously in Capricorn(8) for more than one year. I know it’s not entirely responsible, but the 8 vibration is one of (feast or famine), in other words it either all success and material gain, or it’s huge losses. Unfortunately for the entire world this year, it was a huge loss, materially and financially. The 8 vibration this time resulted in the biggest financial meltdown we’ve seen for decades. Why? It’s because we have multiple 8 vibrations throughout the year in 2008. The 8 (in 2008) which was an increasing vibration throughout the 2nd half of the year (July-December 2008) combined with Capricorn(8), which is where Jupiter(7) resided, resulting in a restricted Jupiter(7). This tends to hinder Capricorn’s(8) growth and it’s authority and material excess. As Jupiter(7) moves into it’s natural ruling sign of Aquarius(7) we will see a renewed creativity and spiritual confidence in 2009.
Adding to these difficulties we have Pluto(10) now finally stationed in Capricorn(8). Again we see the restricted 8 most likely coming into play for 2009, however we have to look at the Numerological Yearly Essence number which is 29/11/2 for 2009 (2+0+0+9=11/2, or 29/11/2 if we include the 2 energy), and this represents much more of a idealistic and hopeful period then last year (2008). For more information see my Numerology Annual Forecast for 2009. Saturn(8) will be retrograde as the year starts out. An interesting time when the materialism and success of the 8 vibration - Saturn(8) will be hindered and restrained once again signifying a sputtering to the recovery in the financial markets as the year starts out. The Saturn(8)/Uranus(9) opposition of last year continues through 2010. There will be an interesting combination of the conservatism and security of Saturn(8) becoming more open and desiring a humanitarian angle (9).
Because the 8/9 vibrations are not well suited to each other, we are going to see a tension created that will ask the two of these vibrations to learn to accept each other. The tension will become oppressive before the opposition ends in 2010. It is the age old battle between the security and stability of Saturn(8) and the change and desire of working with (and helping others) from the Uranus(9) energy.
Neptune(11) and Chiron(6) are also mostly in conjunction as they move across the sky. The wounded healer Chiron(6) will support Neptune’s(11) idealistic and individualistic spiritual ascension in a perfect union which will come to a huge cataclysmic head in 2010. These two planets travel together throughout 2009, and they will open up a gateway of spiritual consciousness and informed energy as they start to separate as we near 2010. Jupiter(7) conjuncts the Chiron(6)/Neptune(11) combination from May-August 2009 and this is sure to bring healing and spiritual transformation during these months. Watch for a major spiritual event to take focus at this time.
Venus(6) goes retrograde from March to May so watch for dangerous relationship issues to come up at this time. Saturn(8) will change signs from Virgo(12) and enter into Libra(11). An expansion of conscious growth and materialism will result. Saturn(8) and Pluto(10) will be moving toward a square in early November. Watch for huge changes in the ruling of governments and laws as this comes about as we near the end of 2009.
From the way it looks we’re going to be in for a year that includes a lot of what we had last year (restricted 8 energy), and some major spiritual (May-August) and governmental (November) changes as we move through the year. I can sense a renewed spirit of hope now that we (the people of the United States of America) have chosen a President that is willing to roll up his sleeves and get some serious work done in the areas of social change and financial recovery. I’m looking forward to what 2009 has to bring and I hope that this forecast has made you feel the same.
My wishes are for peace, prosperity and abundance for you and your friends and family throughout the year and may God bless you and keep you in comforted throughout the year. Happy New Year 2009!
