Spirituality
Hindsight to foresight – 2020 vision
BY GARCIA AKUA
Happy New Year family!
Welcome to the Cosmic Corner with Akua! I am your cosmic Oracle, providing you with weekly astrological updates as they coincide with our everyday life. The cosmos always has a story to tell, let’s dig in!
We have begun a brand new year and a brand new decade, which brings along brand new energies! What a decade we have had. It started with our first black president in the White House. We saw a major increase in wellness and clean eating. We saw more melanated women ditch European standards of beauty and return to natural lifestyles. We went from CDs to MP3s to aux cords and digital streaming. We all started capturing more of our real life experiences online and sharing more of ourselves with the world. We are more connected than ever before. Yet there still seems that there is a collective longing to belong.
Cosmically, we were all waiting for the world to end in 2012 with the Mayan calendar predictions. Astrology became more commonplace. We started to pay attention more to what was happening above us and how it affects our everyday life. As the Kemetic proverb says ‘As above, so below.’
This past year was a culmination of the energies of the last decade. A lot of our past issues came to surface. 2019 was an emotional rollercoaster for many. With a series of eclipses, retrogrades and active moon activity, our emotions were shaken to the core. We had to go through these deep emotional transitions to finally deal with these issues and put them behind us once and for all. Now that we are on route to emotional stability and intelligence, foresight for 2020 becomes clearer.
2020 is going to be a year of expanding your work ethic and independence.
We will be working with a lot of Capricorn energy this year. Capricorn energy brings ambition, independence, boundaries and hard work. Now that we have let go most of our emotional baggage, we know where to better direct our time and energy. Saturn also rules Capricorn, which is the planet of time and karma. We will have to be intentional with how we use our time and resources to ensure we are creating good karma with our actions. What you give, you will receive. What you put out will be returned to you, so your intention is everything this year.
Jupiter, the planet of expansion and fortune will spend a great deal of time in the Capricorn placement for most of 2020. This means the universe is giving you the opportunity to expand in your ambitions, expand your knowledge, and connect your hard work to your fortune. If you are willing to give your best, the universe will do the rest. This all depends on you.
As we discuss astrology and cosmic traditions more throughout the year, we will all come to an understanding that astrology provides you with a road map to navigating the various energies we’re engaged with everyday. Just like any map, it provides the big picture, but it is up to you to pick the path best suited for your personal destination.
The universe has conspired on your behalf to expand this year. What lessons have you learned last year to better navigate 2020? What areas of your life are you focusing on expanding?
What still needs to be released so you can move lighter this year? Where do you feel you are already being stretched too thin? Use the upcoming Full Moon in Cancer on January 10th to do a final emotional audit. Release what is no longer serving you. Release the old thought patterns that have restricted your growth. Get clear in your vision; it’s time to expand. It is said that hindsight is 2020, but for us to achieve greatness, foresight and intention is needed for your 2020 vision!
Wishing you all a wonderful, expansive 2020, see you all next editon at the Cosmic Corner.
