With Best Wishes for a Peaceful,Inspirational, and absolutely Fantastic 2016,I am taking an authentic AstroShamanicObservation, a Swedish, and hopefullyNeutral dialogue of the most influentialplanets and crucial dates for the comingyear. Read on, and allow your most powerfulenergy to create a safe, harmonies andmeaningful year for those around you, and your Self. During 2016 Aries/Libra,Sagittarius/Gemini and Capricorn/Cancer are more dominant than the othersigns; however, our own personal chart will point out that we all have a degree-or-two that will be noticed - and that we have enormous opportunities forpersonal growth during the coming year. The Gods are showing theirpersonalities through Earthly encounters. Know thy Self ... and the World willkeep turning!

The unpredictable, unconventional and liberated Uranus stationed Direct onDecember 25, 2015, at 12 degrees in the fire-sign Aries, and will travel to 20degrees during 2016. Uranus will be Direct until July 30, which means that thepicture of 'letting go of the old' will be incorporated within new revolutionarybreakthroughs, both on personal as well as mass consciousness. WhenUranus goes Retrograde in July until December 29 (then goes Direct during aNew Moon phase), we will see the uncertainty still lingering in the political,social, economic, ecological, and spiritual areas. The uncertainty is certain inthe challenge as to where to place over 1 million people migrating to newcountries in hope for a better life ... the integration is becoming social,economic and spiritual (i.e. religious), and will become an increasing challengedue to the planetary alignments.

We have now endured the first part of the resilient Cardinal punches createdby Uranus and Pluto; they will still brush against each other during the firstmonths of 2016. We will observe the mid-degrees of their journey during thisyear; Uranus in Aries will travel between 12 and 20 degrees. Pluto will travel in15, 16 and 17 degrees. Thus, both personal and Mundane astrology (worldevents) will notice Uranus and Pluto's challenges of the unexpected; especiallycountries or individuals with Planets, Sun or the Moon in and around the abovedegrees.

Uranus will move into Taurus in May of 2018, Retrograde to Station Direct inJanuary of 2019 ... to be continued, so make sure to do the Healing ofLiberation that Uranus and Pluto allows on a personal level. "Healer Heal ThySelf".

There are great opportunities for personal growth for those Aries born March31 through April 9, or any other Aries of 12 to 20 degree points that you mightlike to add to the quotation. Capricorn folks born around January 5 through the9 will have the opportunity to experience the metamorphic results on apersonal level! The rest of us will feel the pain with you, and we wish that Plutowill move just a bit faster. He is, after all, Retrograde 50% of his Journey on theEcliptic during any given year!

Saturn in Sagittarius will move between 11 and 17 degrees during 2016. Forthose born December 2 through the 10, you will benefit by increasing yourmeditation, practice creative visualization, or by using your smart mind withdiscipline because you have to stay focused! Otherwise? Well, follow yourstars! The Sky often works in opposite energies and allows those that studywith the right tools to integrate the 'opposite attracts' natural phenomena. Thus,Gemini people born any-time from June 1 through June 9 should also followthe Stars and observe what needs to be the focus throughout 2016 ... GoodLuck! Around June 17 and September 10, Saturn that represents government,

control and timing, will square Neptune that stands for confusion, dissolving ofmatters, drugs and alcohol. Increased prayers are appropriate!

A beneficial Fire trine between Uranus in Aries, and Saturn in Sagittarius willreward the Fire signs during 2016's hard work! If the Leo people pay attention,they can have a piece of the opportunistic alignment! It might take the wholeyear, but someone deserves a break in the ups-and-down transit that Uranushas caused; December 24, 2016 ... Santa Claus will always come back totown!

Neptune is crucially involved with our Observation during 2016. Neptune is stillchurning in the early degrees of 7 and 9. Advice to the beautiful Pisces bornFebruary 25 through March 1; say a prayer for your Self, friends and family, theworld, and me!

Saturn and Neptune met on November 25, 2015, and will have anotherpow-wow gathering in June (12 degrees), and September of 2016 (10degrees). The political arena at the end of 2015 didn't look as hopeful as somewould like. The social migration's effect will continue until 2020. However, thereare millions and millions of light-workers, positive alternative healers, thosethat doesn't give up the wish for Peace, and that continues to have Faith intheir daily living. Faith in our own created reality is crucial more now than ever. Don't forget to count your Blessings - every Day that you wake up!!!

The Water Element has a significant influence not only by Neptune (begun inMarch of 2012, lasting until 2026), but also the Moon's Nodes (or Nodal Axis),as well as Chiron, which are crucial points in the chart for those that seek anytype of alternative way of living. My specialty in the vast observation of the Skyis the Moon's Nodes and is the basis of the book, The Moon'sNodes, Understanding the Dynamic Ties that Bind (Ibis Publication, 2004). Itscontent explains in detail about the point of contact between the Sun's (Spirit)intersecting its path around the Earth with the path of the Moon (Soul). Theylinger in one Zodiac sign for 19 months; the latest change from one sign toanother was on November 13, 2015 ... the day of the tragic terrorist attack inParis, France. It sets a certain tone for the coming year and a half. With theincreased security around the Globe, we are also noticing the migrationbecomes restricted and more controlled. The many issues surrounding theShift, wars, lack of water or too much of it, the necessity for survival, and thenow accepted Climate Warming becomes fundamental in our new GlobalAwareness.

We stay focused on our own personal security, and trust our intuition (andchart) when we need to travel or move around in our daily lives. The November13, 2015 day with the change from Aries/Libra Nodal points to Pisces/Virgo

Nodal energy becomes a heartfelt, sad observation and honest speculationthat the uncertain border issues will last until Spring of 2017! Pisces in a fewwords represents 'water, suffering, illusion, sacrifice and pain', it also embodiesunconditional Love for All.

An Eclipse can't occur without the involvement of the Moon's Nodes, thusduring 2016, we need to pay extra attention to them. Why? The first eclipse ofthe Pisces/Virgo axis occurred on May 20, 2015, the next was on September13, and then the fact of the shift to the signs of Pisces and Virgo on November13 become a focus of the Water Element. Where is the water going? Whoneeds clean water and who, or what might disappear into the Ocean? Therecent Paris Climate Conference seemed to gear towards the right direction -awareness is a beginning - and the Gods are in the 'half-time' of their racetoward 2024 and 2026!

Jupiter in Virgo will conjunct the South Node (what is behind us), and opposethe North Node (that which is ahead), in Pisces during January of 2016 in 24 to22 degrees. We will have more unpredictable weather conditions, notice anincrease of spiritual growth on a personal level, as some will face an uncertainfuture due to Jupiter's often over-the-top personality with the karmic implicationof the Moon's Node. The Moon's Node are noticed as 'fatalistic, karmic or unavoidable' situations - unless they are observed during our silent time, andintegrated with a sincere approach to help someone in need, thus help our ownSelf.

The degrees of the Moon's Node move from the reducing degrees of 29 to 4during 2016: make sure to check your chart where your Pisces or Virgo planetsmight be effecting your current situations in your life. For the near-by readers,please check out the Astrological Society of Connecticut's web-page and signup for my lecture (Journey to Your Planetary Powers), and workshop (Trackingthe Moon's Nodes) in March of 2016 ... myasc.org

Chiron, the asteroid turn planetoid continues to travel in Pisces during 2016from 17 to 21 ... we wish that Neptune and Chiron would hold hands andpromise that Mother Earth will Heal 'now'. But, we are aware of Chiron as theTeacher of all Teachers to find their way to a Path of ultimate Nirvana, findingways to enjoy Life rather than not: we learn how to seek the Inner Peace ratherthan trust what is around the corner.

As we speak about the element Earth, we are also noticing Jupiter in Virgountil September 9, 2016. Jupiter, the Big God doesn't really like to hang out inthe sign of picky and precise Virgo: he feels stale and can't really move fastenough. Virgos born September 13 through the 22 will be noticed, get thewell-deserved promotion, take an over-due vacation, or start a new career path

The travelling God Jupiter will move into Libra on September 9, (7:18 AM,EST). A feeling of justice and peace for more individuals on the path ofLiberation might be noticed. Those born September 23 through October 12 arethe lucky ones that will have the Luck in their Charts!

As Jupiter travels with fast speed around the Ecliptic for about one year, he willmake noticeable contacts with Saturn, Pluto and Uranus during 2016:Jupiter (in Virgo) trine Pluto, March 16 and June 26: Jupiter (in Virgo) squareSaturn; March 23, and May 26: Jupiter (in Libra) square Pluto, November 24:Jupiter (in Libra) sextile Saturn, December 25: Jupiter (in Libra) opposeUranus, December 26.

The Moon fights against emotions, and we have to stay focused to allow thenew freedom of expression and become part of our day. Letting it all go!!!January 3,Warrior, Mars moves into Scorpio and touches the Moon, whom stirs up our'calm' minds ... so, clearing the air can be healthy at times. Just try to be asnice as you can.January 4,Allow yourself the confusion in your surroundings to be a tool for power - ignore the feelings and take a walk, shake your hands wildly, and continue tosmile; 'you got the Power' !January 5,Ok, here we go again with the natural phenomena of Mercury stationRetrograde (8:06 AM) until January 25 (4:50 PM, EST). Because Mercury andMars are squaring each other early in the morning, we will feel this Retrogradewith the notion of agitation. How do we change that? Let's try the Venus andNeptune square, also today, and draw a 'pretty' picture of how we actually feel.The Moon still lingers in Scorpio, so let's take a cold shower, a walk with thedog, and allow this Mercury period to be about expression, manifestation,creating a money/love/car/friendship grid. It is a fact that Mercury Retrogradewill benefit those that listen; quiet and peacefully, listen again and again ... yourSelf will hear you! If you are an Aquarius or Capricorn, make sure to takeanother walk, do your empowering Mantra and make no major decisions untilFebruary 14 when the 'messenger' of the mind is out of his shadow. But, makesure to make plans ... enjoy and use the Power of the Mind!January 6,We allow the mind and heart to come together for the sake of our own sanity;we don't pretend to know what we don't know, but rather, get that book out andread the words of wisdom!January 7,Jupiter, the biggest planet of them all ... will bring unexpected announcements;the economy in the world can be a challenge. Jupiter goes Retrograde whichmakes some folks stagnated due to the fear of the unknown ... now we know!Cautiousness should be on the refrigerator door!January 8,Mercury, yes still Retrograde moves into Capricorn which is the reminder thatCapricorn shouldn't run too fast! Venus and Saturn (ruler of Capricorn) is thestale-mate here ... so we might all feel down ... it might help to put a smile onour faces, pretend helps at times!January 9,New Moon, Capricorn, 8:30 PM, (EST). Time to start all over again! Capricornrepresents discipline, did we follow his rules? We know that the New and FullMoons often brings unusual or harsh conditions (especially the weather!), thisis one of those days! Stay in bed or don't get out of your PJ's!January 10,

A resilient day for the Body/Mind connection: meditation, yoga, kick-boxing,power-walking, or all of the above - and we continue to stay focused!January 11,Sextiles are the aspects that we have to become aware of and work on a bit ...but then the energies pay off ... Moon in Aquarius: Saturn; timing, rewards,Venus; love, heart, Uranus; great results!January 12,...and then I'm going to say something silly like "I Love You" ... why not?Fantastic day for the proposal, the ring or simple the courting. Remember thatLove starts with Loving your Self ...January 13,Reality versus Illusion kind-of-day ... Make sure to stay grounded, or, if youmeditate/ journey, be prepared to dwell into deep other realms. Accomplishments are achieved by visualizations and good deeds performed.January 14,Mercury, Retrograde and still in Capricorn demands our attention for checkingword-spell - one more time. Ask the tech guy to explain diligently what is wrongwith your IPhone, laptop or ... car! They might not be able to give you the rightanswer, so, we are patient today! Right? We will sleep good when Mercury andJupiter come together at night-fall.January 15,The brave Moon and Saturn works well together - Fire it up ... whatever thatmight be!January 16,First Quarter Moon, Aries, 6:26 PM (EST).Energies from Pluto, Uranus, Venus, Mercury and the Sun ... well, the littleengine knew "he could do it, he could do it" ... and so can we! The advice fromthe Sky is to either have a good cry, or laugh at it all!January 17,A day to clarify confused actions - or reactions - standing up for what webelieve in is crucial! Honesty pays off!January 18,Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The aspect Trine is the main focus on this day inremembrance of Dr. Martin King, a strong Capricorn with a compassionatePisces Moon, and Mercury in Aquarius, the Visionary continues to show us theway! With only a few words for each planet, this is the message for today:Moon/Pluto; letting go, death, Mars/Neptune; conquering with vision,Moon/Mercury; tell it like it is, Moon/Jupiter; "WE SHALL OVERCOME"!
