Year Ahead Report for 2008 Maggie Kerr (part 1) |
Welcome to my general overview of what the cosmos may have in store for us for 2008, and with such a healthy dose of planets in “earth” signs it is no surprise that we are entering “The International Year of Planet Earth”.
But don’t’ expect the new years fireworks to give us the call to action as the early weeks of 2008 dawn, as with retrograde Mars being a feature of the horoscope for 2008 (set for January 1st 00. 00 Greenwich), the enterprising spirit in each of us may be a little slow to get off the ground. Indeed with Mars in Cancer around the festive season it will be a very family affair… for better or worse depending on your family! Mars governs all things to do with action, initiation, assertion (or anger if he’s unhappy), courage and confidence. So until he moves into forward motion (literally) on January 30th it is wise to spend the month setting up your plans for the year, and generally connecting and networking with the people and information you need to set the balls in the rack and get the cue out once February rolls in.
Also worthy of a major mention as we begin our analysis of the year ahead is the Numerology at work in the Divine Arithmetic that governs us all. 2007 = 9 so we have just experienced the final year of this past 9 year cycle. So as we completed the last 6 weeks of 2007 with both Mars retrograde and the 9 year winding down, don’t feel bad if you joined so many of us who threw our hands in the air and conceded that we were just too pooped to fight the urge to wind down, throw out, release the past, and generally loose the plot. Which is not to say this is a depressing phase. On the contrary… as I feel quite excited about the future…for the first time in ages!
2008 = 10 = 1 Yes 2008 is a “one” year thus a new 9 year phase is about to open, and as with any opening it sometimes takes a while to begin to feel the stirrings of activity, which will not really begin to kick in until April when Mars in Cancer finally gets a scoot on and picks up speed to move past his position last November.
