2012 outlook trends analysis

I am so sorry, the year 2012 will definitely (not) be the end of the world!

Well then, let’s move on with business as usual, shall we?? (Just in case you wonder about the Mayan calendar story…. i think they simply got tired of calculating calendars way way past their own life expectancy!!)
P.S. I have to remind my readers once again, this is not someone’s individual astrological outlook for the year 2012 but rather the general 2012 forecast for around the entire globe and all of us, the general quality of time. For your individual astrological trends for 2012 please hop on over to my astrological advice site, thanks.

So, 2012 starts exactly the same way 2011 has ended (please refer back to the final segments of 2011 at http://astro.. blog/..forecast …2011 

With the Chinese year of the Water-Dragon starting on January 23. 2012 we still don’t see any significant changes right away.

Once the Sun moves into Pisces though we start to see changes, yet, a somewhat similar pattern evolves as in 2011.
In other words, the year starts on a miserable note, and what’s different this year is that it is not so much a slow moving planet but Mars hovering around in the “dumbest” of possible spots for way to long.

Mars in a Square with the Moon nodes
February 26. 2012 – May 24. 2012
Disturbances and fights will occur when they try to interact with others. Their aggressive and mostly misplaced attitude towards others can create nervous upsets in others, so most people will prefer to leave them alone. Since they can’t fit into the spirit around them they will also often experience bad luck or make themselves some enemies.
Special attention to: March 24 – April 14
Involved degree position: 8° Sagittarius, on behalf of Moon node.
Very tense emotions that can erupt anytime, without warning, never mind how much they try to control themselves. This can be a very destructive force / frame of time, specially also against ones self.

Well, if there was a chance for unruly outbreaks of passionate aggression and opinions this year, here you have it, that covers pretty much all of the sign Arias, watch out and keep a level head and temper.

But, here too, all is not lost, and it may still continue in a semi-civilized fashion. However, pressing issues will now no longer be put on the backburner.

Mars in a Trine with Pluto
February 27. 2012 – June 01. 2012
Because of their deep insight and their renewing energies they will always push for regenerating activities, never mind if that is for an entire society or just within their private surrounding. New sources of energy catch their interest. They have a No Fear attitude and will fight for their cause at all cost. Since they are absolutely self confident it usually won’t take very long before they have it their way. If not, they don’t mind to use force.
Involved degree position: 9° Capricorn, on behalf of Pluto.
Whatever the circumstances are, they dogmatically like to impose their ideas and to set their standards for everyone else to follow..

But wait, there’s more positivity added into the otherwise somewhat explosive mix here… well, positivity maybe a bit to much to say, rather perhaps “hard pushing without declaring any wars”??

Uranus in a Trine with the Moon node
March 20. 2012 – June 22. 2012
Interest in new experiences through new people or traveling to new places. Very quickly adaptable to new situations.  Perhaps even involved in new political reforms.
Involved degree position of possible interest: 7° Arias, on behalf of Uranus.
Difficult to live with, because they always want to be right, they have a rather quarrelsome attitude, tend to attack problems head-on. They strive to be in charge.

But wait, there’s even more, and that is not positive, we are still within Arias, and see for yourself now what else hits the fan…

Mars in Opposition to Neptune
March 23. 2012 – May 12. 2012
So many worries and fears that they want to hang on to someone, or something, and become dependent. With their weak unrealistic attitude they tend to lose things. They often chose the wrong career and achieve not to much that way. Their psyche may be home to some real neuroses, and they tend to cheat themselves. It may also be others who try to intrigue behind their backs against them. Some may be able to use their mental chaos to create something of artistic value, some others may turn on themselves, in a self destructive fashion.

If that wasen’t worrisome enough, how about something that lasts r-e-a-l-l-y long?? This has nothing to do with Arias anymore, this is just plain and simple a s.h.i.t.t.y year from here on in! Spring, summer and fall, if even the moon nodes build such long lasting aspects, good night dear reader, April to December, hold on to whatever you’ve got and be happy if you can keep it until this crap is over!

Uranus in a Square with Pluto
April 12. 2012 – December 12. 2012
Destructive forces can lead to drastic consequences or overturn achievements accomplished for an entire future generation. This type of constellation last occurred in the beginning of the 1930′s , which brought us the beginning of the 2nd World War.
Once more involved: 7° Arias on behalf of Uranus. The other degrees (5 – 9 degrees Arias, 8 and 9° Capricorn are non violent, even very positive degrees indicating forceful research on all corners and ends.

Neptune in a Square with the Moon nodes
April 21. 2012 – November 19. 2012
People cannot adapt, because they are haunted by delusions. Partners will tend to abuse each other. They can feel completely lonely in the middle of a big crowd.
“Would like to be” degrees involved on behalf of Neptune (3 to 0° Pisces) Somehow the driven passionate researchers that have to go their way alone type of a time frame.

Jupiter in a Square with Neptune
June 03. 2012 – July 18. 2012
Life in a world of illusions, far away from any responsibilities. They may be in a constant search for enlightenment but find nothing around them but chaos. They may be friendly, but do not know whom they turn to. They may propose great plans, but all they are capable of is gorging themselves and indulging in excessive abuse.
Intellectual wanna-be time.

So how is that supposed to be working now, a new positive aspect that says we can enjoy an outgoing life – while the other aspect says we will feel completely lonely in the midst of a crowd eh?? Well, it’s always the same story in such situations, we may try, but we may fail.

Jupiter in a Hexagon with Uranus
June 27. 2012 – July 17. 2012
and again
December 16. 2012 – April 15. 2013
They live an outgoing social life but shy away from steady relations because they want to be on the move, travel around and learn new things. They have a fortunate intuition which makes it rather easy for them to find new ways to excel or get what they want or find the protection of someone behind the scene perhaps to sponsor them so that they can create new social or technical revolutionary innovations..

Mars in Conjunction with Saturn
August 02. 2012 – August 28. 2012
There will not be much fun during this time frame. It’s all about working hard and living in Spartan life style, more like in the military than in urban living. Peoples attitude can be rather distrustful or even mean now, because they strongly resent those who still have fun and enjoy themselves. In that state of mind they can become extremely destructive.
No seriously destructive degrees involved, more the imbalance between wanting to be out there and have fun but somehow going a tad neurotic over it instead.

Good thing this one (above) is short lived, but combine it with the other negative aspects (farther above) that are still active and you know you still have to wait patiently for those better times to come – and come they will! That’s what i mean’t with a similar pattern to 2011. It all starts like poop in a ceiling fan, but at the end of the year we finally see the clouds disapear, and, unlike 2011, this time they will really make way for slowly improving better days ahead, during which things are getting done, and done right as well for a refreshing change!

Saturn in a Hexagon with Pluto
October 25. 2012 – May 29. 2013
Brave and tough. They last longer than most others. They have a well developed understanding for structures and numbers that makes them, together with their ability to relentlessly concentrate and bring efforts, capable of managing and handling entire organizations. They also seem to be on a mission and will create new structures where necessary. In that way they will leave their personal mark on whatever they do, or whom ever they get involved with. If the outcome of their efforts will be that profitable in the end may be another question though.
Things will get done during this time frame, that’s for sure, as the involved degrees involved are mainly hard working, achievements seeking as well.

And finally a glimpse into 2013, check the January 10. 2013 chart and you see nothing but two positive aspects, once again proof that nothing ever lasts forever, also not miserable times!

Astrological forecast for the year 2011

Let’s start this with the short overview of the astrological outlook for 2011:

Main negative time from beginning of 2011 until the end of June, with the pesky long lasting Uranus / Pluto square lingering on as the only negative aspect into the second half of 2011. It’s for sure another lonely half a year to come for many of us with little to expect unless it’s bad news….

From the middle of June on we finally start to see some long awaited positivity on our global horizon again, that is at least until the end of November when the balance between positive and negative get’s about even until roughlyt the beginning of the Year of the Water-Dragon in 2012.

Now let’s take a look at the main long term planet positions and especially any aspects formed between them during the year 2011 and into 2012. Below the entire 2011 predictions / outlook / forecast in detail and in the respective timeline:

Jupiter square Moon node
2. January 2011 – 17. February 2011
Bad timing and misjudgment will cause difficulties in any sort of partnership or common interests. A time frame during which most people will feel left alone, and perhaps start to act antisocial.

Uranus square Moon node
12. January 2011 – 9. April 2011
Tense and nervous when around people. Sudden, accidental events could hamper or even separate social contacts. Bad luck seems to hang around, but it is, of course, the result of a revolutionary attitude which estranges people from one another.

Jupiter opposite Saturn
9. March 2011 – 16. April 2011
and
27. November – 20. February 2012
Misfortune because of erroneous speculations or expectations, also bad timing and therefore often missing out on good opportunities, hence chances to excel into better positions are slim. Average job,  rather boring life all together. It may still be hard to find relaxing times, because there always seems to be someone or something disturbing around.

Saturn square Pluto
1. May 2011 – 29. June 2011
Lack of care for others, maybe everybody feels like five has put a heavier burden on their shoulder than on others. As a result, they may feel often down and heavy. There is also some activity behind the scenes to be expected, intrigue, dictating other peoples lives etc., politicians better take a note of that! The degree positions for Saturn here indicate that it will be mostly people trying to put themselves into the flash light, vanity and ambition in a non-harmonious way.

Uranus square Pluto
12. May 2011 – 29. October 2011
Destructive forces can mount in drastic disasters, or up throw before made achievements for a whole generation! This constellation (from different degree positions though) also happened at the beginning of the 1930s, known as the begining of a World War.
(Important to point out the degree positions involved: on behalf of Uranus: 2-5 degrees Arias, where 2,4,5 are actually wonderful degrees, only 3 is an over spending degree, but certainly nothing violent or destructive here, on behalf of Pluto: 5-7 degrees Capricorn, sure, a bit “British” here, nose up in the air, everyone feels a bit “above the rest”, distant to the crowd, but they all try to do the best they can for the common greater good nonetheless, have also some crazy or even great ideas, overall still a lousy aspect, but at least half as bad as it could be).

Jupiter trine Pluto
12. June 2011 – 17. August 2011
and
16. September 2011 – 2. December 2011
Honorably leading and organizing, knowing how to make dreams come true, also the fortune for it  Perhaps interested in psychology or chemistry, good time to move up the social ladder, also be respected by the opposite sex, or talented to realize intuitively when something is not right, and more so, to know how to get it right.

Saturn hexagon Moon node
24. August 2011 – 28. October 2011
Patience as attitude, connections to older people are favored, because older people will be protective. Generally just a rather conservative time where everybody prefers to go with the common flow.

Jupiter hexagon Neptune
7. November 2011 – 22. February 2012
Samaritans that take very much part in other peoples well being. A lot of fantasy, very tolerant towards others, a philosophical attitude and also a good sense for profitable speculations. But worldly stuff is not so much the thing of time, it’s more about superior enlightenment, a feeling of constant spiritual highs that matters.

Saturn hexagon Neptune
7. November 2010 – 2. April 2012
Good for planning behind the scenes, but with good moral standards. Usually very decent behaving. Goals can now be achieved with hard work or a strong sense for togetherness in a partnership. Sherlock Holmes type of instinct, to also see the hidden facts.

Mars square Moon node
29. November 2011 – 30. December 2011
Disturbances and fights will occur when people try to make contact with others due to an aggressive and mostly misplaced attitude that can create nervous upsets in others, people just can’t seem to fit in with the attitude around them and also often experience bad luck.
