Can you see clearly now? What are you going to do with your 2020 vision?

BY GARCIA AKUA

Happy December Gems! Can you believe we have made it to the last month of 2020?

Regardless of the year we have had, we have much to be thankful for! As we have discussed, 2020 was not a year to be cancelled, it was a year of revelation. 2020 has brought us 2020 vision.

We started the year with fires and rumours of war with Iran. The world felt the devastating loss of Kobe and his angelic daughter, then we were ushered into a pandemic that we are still in the midst of. Protests, Black Lives Matter, elections and political fallouts have all happened before our eyes this year.

Adjusting to lockdowns, social distancing and the “new norm” has not been an easy feat. Many people lost their lives and livelihoods during this process, we were taught new lessons about change, grief and letting go. It was not an easy year to say the least, but we are here.

What have you learned about yourself? It was easy to get so caught up in everything that was happening this year that we haven’t really had the opportunity to process. Now that we have come to the closing of the year, many of us are still left with questions of uncertainty; still have unprocessed feelings and unresolved situations. This is the time to take some time for you and feel through your year.

We are still in Sagittarius season; Sagittarius is the sign of higher learning, optimism and calculated risks. We can use this Sagittarius energy to process our lessons and apply them at a higher level of learning. We can take our experiences and form our truth, our own personal philosophy for moving forward. Sagittarius is a fire sign as mentioned before, we can use this fire to fuel our new found inner strength and also burn away the pain, illusions and things that no longer serve us.

2021 is going to be a year of standing on and speaking your truth. It is a year of reclaiming your power. December 21st, we will experience a cosmic event called The Great Conjunction. Saturn and Jupiter will both be leaving the sign of Capricorn and into Aquarius. With this transit, we will definitely feel the shift in energy. There will also be a strong influence from Gemini and Sagittarius. You must be saying, what does all this mean Akua?

Aquarius is the sign of the humanitarian, it is an air sign, full of knowledge and innovative thinking to progress the collective. Saturn is the planet of boundaries, restrictions and time management. Saturn spent some time in Aquarius this year back in March and we saw lockdowns start around this time, we may have a similar experience for late December/early January as here in Toronto we are currently under a 28 day lockdown, we can look for that to be extended. Saturn isn’t all about the lockdowns, it applies restrictions and boundaries for a balanced flow of energy. Jupiter is the planet of expansion and luck; Jupiter brings a fresh energy to the collective. Based on the lessons learned this year, it is time to expand our thinking. Look at situations and life from a new perspective. It’s time for some calculated risks. The Gemini/Sagittarius energy encourages us to move forward in truth. If your integrity will be compromised, that is not a risk you should take. If the energy is not based on truth, you shouldn’t be moving in that direction.

Take the lessons you have learned this year and make next year your best year. You now have 2020 vision; use it! The Great Conjunction will open our eyes to new possibilities, but we have to be ready to stand and speak our truth to reap the benefits.

We are closing out cycles, tearing down old foundations and paradigms so we can create something new, something innovative, something based on truth and love. As you reflect over this last year, what have you learned about you? How have you grown? What else do you need to release to birth something new? We are almost at the end of the year, can you see clearly now? What are you going to do with your 2020 vision?
