Evolution of The High Heart: Astrology Forecast January 23rd – 30th, 2022
What to expect this week?
By Lorna Bevan | Guest Writer
After 40 days and nights in the wilderness, Venus is stationing this week to turn Direct on January 29th having been Retrograde since December 19 2021. This has been a once in 8 years retrograde in Saturn’s sign of Capricorn with Venus conjuncting Pluto 3 times – on December 11 + 25th 2021 and finally on March 3 2022.
During her descent into Pluto’s underworld, the Goddess morphed from Evening Star to Morning Star and will take until March 3 to re-trace her path back to 26 Capricorn for one last merger with the Great Transformer.
Take some time to reflect on how your tastes, preferences and values have changed and crystallised during this period. Notice who and what you have now completely moved on from – relationships, sources of information, social media blogs, old ways of marketing and business-as they are no longer on your wavelength.
As Venus moves back over the degrees between 11-26 Capricorn between January 29th and March 3rd, be alert for new passions, interests, people, ideas and ways to earn your living to take their place. Let it happen without striving or pushing.
This is the beginning of an evolution of your High Heart, which will open to a whole new frequency in April 11 and beyond when Jupiter conjuncts Neptune in Pisces for the first time since 1856.
With Mercury retrograde conjuncting first the Sun on the 23rd then Pluto on the 28th , this week will bring below the radar information to light as well as a reckoning as karmic chickens come home to roost for some.

“Polarities go against each other in order to find each other again. When they are still busy going against each other, they pull you apart. And this experience is so definitive, so intensive, and so traumatic that you learn to bring the polarities back together any way you can. The journey to make this possible is an extensive one, because along the way you must mediate between discrimination and release. You are walking a collective karmic edge between the old and the new, in which both of them must be honoured in just the right ways. Yet the work it takes to bring polarities together in fresh ways is monumental, utterly redemptive, of infinite meaning and scope, in opening doors and letting totality in by surrender to the great inevitable.” – Inside Degrees Elias Lonsdale
