Happy New Year! You survived 2020. It was difficult with your planet, Jupiter, being in a bit of a tight spot with Saturn and Pluto, but it’s moved on. You’re in a new year-long chapter.

The irony of 2021 is that it’s a new story and an old story at the same time. Some things have already been set in motion the past few years, thanks to Uranus entering Taurus in May 2018 and May 2019.

It’s Capricorn season and Capricorn forms the base of your astrology chart. If you think of the base of something, it holds the weight. It’s the roots; it’s the foundation; home. It’s family. You’re in this season where it’s about nesting, focusing on the home.

A month is never a standalone thing in astrology; it connects to a bigger picture. This month, we have to see how January threads into the bigger picture. In many ways, there’s this irony that’s happening: a new chapter is opening but it’s a chapter that’s already been in play since 2018.

For you, Leo, you’re in the bit of a tough spot this month. Let’ recap because a month is never a standalone thing; astrology is a part of the bigger story. On December 17, Saturn left Capricorn, where it was since the start of 2018 and went into Aquarius.

Gemini, we need to recap a little bit because a month is never this standalone event; it’s part of these bigger arcs of tying these bigger stories — bigger chapters — together. As you go into January, life may be a bit interesting at the moment.

The thing about looking at monthly astrology is that we can’t look at a month as part of this compartmentalized story; it’s actually part of a bigger story. As you go into the new year, it’s a time when a new story is opening — but in a way it’s not a new story.

No month is ever of a standalone month. Astrology is part of a bigger story. As we go into 2021, we’re not just stepping into a new year; we’re stepping into a bigger chapter of time. Right before the start of the new year in December, we had two planets—Saturn and Jupiter—change signs.
