Greetings friends,

We are still traversing a time of tumultuous change and challenges, but this is also a time for innovation, creativity, breaking free and reinventing oneself and one’s perspectives. Before I get to the state of things planetarily, energetically and astrologically, here’s a preview from ancient Asian traditions…
​
Chinese Lunar New Year- February 1st, 2022:
The Tiger is known as the king of all beasts in China. The zodiac sign Tiger is a symbol of strength, exorcising evils, and braveness. Tigers don’t usually like water but will ford streams and other bodies of water to escape a threat or while tracking prey. The year of the Tiger is a time associated with achievements. Overcoming challenges, determination, and looking straight ahead is the Tiger’s forte. For more detail, click on this: https://www.china-family-adventure.com/year-of-the-tiger.html

Around the World:
This past week we’ve been witnessing some interesting events unfolding around our planet.

Point 1: The possible confrontation brewing between Russa and the Ukraine over access to the Black Sea. This is a powder-keg with huge ramifications if it goes ahead. The Cold War revisited, unfortunately.

Point 2: There's something amazing happening up in the Great White North (Canada), where a 50-mile-long convoy of tractor trailers (articulated heavy goods vehicles) are heading to Ottawa (the nation's capital) to overturn the mandatory vaccination laws and the vaccine passports. The protests are launching tomorrow as Venus turns direct at 11 degrees of Capricorn (8:48am GMT), and the estimated 50,000 trucks are planning to stay in Ottawa until their demands are met. Venus is also conjunct Vesta at 11 Capricorn. More on that in a moment.  That Tiger energy is happening there, in spite of the frigid temperatures.  ​

Here in the U.K. where I reside, Prime Minister Boris Johnson is desperately clinging on in the wake of scandals surrounding him and his ministerial staff have garden and birthday parties in 2020 while the rest of the UK was under heavy lockdowns. Photos of these parties clearly show that no one was social distancing or wearing the then obligatory masks. None of them came down with even a sniffle in the aftermath, much less Covid-19. Makes one wonder what we were all locked down for then. None of them looked worried, that’s for sure. 

​Point 3: The wobbling in the stock markets and the cryptocurrencies under the triple threat of supply chain problem, overheated valuations of corporate portfolios (especially Big Tech), and runaway inflation in almost every sector of the global economy you can name. We clearly do not live in the most stable of times.

Point 4: The passing of the venerable Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh at the age of 95. He was considered by many as the strongest progenitor of the mindfulness method, and also one of its strongest critics when it was being touted as a process for achievement in the Western developed countries. His gentleness and wisdom will be sorely missed at a time we need more kindness and consciousness in this world.

So…how are you feeling?:
I cannot speak for you, but I certainly can for myself, and my sense of things is one of elation and calm mixed with a being a drunken kung fu fighter flailing about haphazardly against an invisible opponent. The energetics continue to build exponentially as we watch our Sun building to one of it’s most powerful Solar Maximum cycles in over 2 decades. The other factors are deep space waves arriving and penetrating our weakened magnetosphere. Someone sent me an article recently by an astrologer who believes that there is strong correlation between solar cycles, certain astrological events and the appearance of pandemics. I found it fascinating, but somehow missing something. If you want a link to it, please email me at isaac@isaacgeorge.com
​
A lot of folks are tuning into the powerful light energies as they cascade into our planet, while the planet is also doing her thing. Lots of earthquakes, the Tonga volcano in the Pacific, and one blizzard after another rolling across North America. If you have the sense that there’s a picking up of speed, even though your clock isn’t whirring around the dial like a mad thing, then you’re right.

Things are accelerating in many ways and on many levels. For me this has sometimes shown up as a feeling of wanting less engagement, more solitude, and a distinct distaste for anything having to do with the Internet. Perhaps that’s because a load of 5G networks were activated back on January 19th in America. Perhaps you’ve felt a similar “call of the wild”, or maybe you haven’t. With the planet’s Earth Field more disturbed than at any time in Her herstory, it’s no wonder that we would feel the need to ground, and I do mean GROUND. Not much has been heard about 5G since the late spring of 2020. It hasn’t gone away though, and a lot more networks are going live this year. I have been studying and looking for correlating data to demonstrate how this is affecting human consciousness and human health and will share my discoveries sometime in the next few months. Probably in a webcast or webinar.

​
Celestial Weather Report:
After almost 40 days in the underworld, Venus emerges from her retrograde in Capricorn tomorrow at 8:48am GMT. This is not a subtle shift, because it is followed on Tuesday by Chinese Lunar New Year’s, the Year of the Water Tiger (see first item in this post). Then we have the New Moon at 12 degrees of Aquarius, conjunct Saturn at 15 Aqua. A potent activation once again of all things related to the shadow side of Saturn in Aquarian cycle – the State and the Experts demand compliance…individual choice is nothing. On February 4th, Mercury exits its retrograde journey at 24 degrees of Capricorn, right next to Pluto at 27 degrees of Cap. Have you noticed any upsets in your plans or tech the past 2 and half weeks? We certainly have!

The rest of February will be a footrace to the grand event – Pluto Return in the USA Natal Chart at 27 degrees of Capricorn. The end of Empire is nigh, and the institutions and structures that have supported Pax Americana since the Spanish-American war are crumbling. However, they won’t slink away without a fight. Nonetheless, nothing can stay Pluto’s hand when it comes to endings and death. The Lord of Hades in the sign Saturn rules will demand a reconciling of accounts, no matter what. With Uranus out of the star

If you’re feeling that this is something you should ​prepare for, then you are tuned in. Between the stationing direct of Venus and then Mercury, I recommend staying the course, and do what needs doing, but without any sense of what the end results may look like. In other words, a light touch and being deliberately detached from outcomes will be super helpful. Carry on and pay attention.

This New Moon may your intentions focus about how you as an individual can help those that may be struggling or feeling hopeless to feel reconnected and heard. Since the higher vibe of Aquarius is about community-building and the social fabric, it can be very altruistic to reach out and be available for the more vulnerable. Since the death of my friend and health coach earlier in January, I thought about how committed she was to not just people’s health, but also about supporting their right to choose how to be healthy. In other words, my friend did much to educate and support members in her community by organizing groups to go to Dublin and to protest some of the more onerous mandates that the Irish government instituted. Though I cannot know for certain, I feel that one of the reasons she deliberately left this world is because of these measures, and how they choked off human contact and social connections for almost two years. Since that event, a peer in the astrological community, Eric Francis Coppolino, has launched a Helpline for those who feel cut off and alone in their views and choices. He sent out the word asking for counsellors, healers, astrologers and therapists to join in creating a Helpline of sorts. It’s just called Planetwaves.net “Help”.  There is now a hotline of sorts in place handling emails from the at-risk members of the human family. The link to the post explaining everything is below.

Whether you are someone who can help, or who wants to help, here’s your golden opportunity. Yes, I am on the list of helpers. If you would be willing to come to the aid of your fellow human beings, then do as I have and make yourself available as a volunteer on his team. You can find out more right here.

Behind the Microphone:
Lastly, I am pleased to announce that I am ending my hiatus from KindaSound Radio Network and returning to do my first live show on “Revealing the Mysteries” since the end of November 2021. It happens on Sunday evening, February 6th at 5:30pm GMT. The title is “Reaching Within, Reaching Out” I will be sharing something about my own journey in 2021 and focus on how we can join hands and move forward together this year. I hope you can join me. Here’s the show link: https://www.kindasound.org/

Finally, in this New Year of the Tiger, I would hope you will study and emulate the traits of the Tiger. Independence, loyalty, fierceness, being bold and courageous. Being a Metal Tiger, I already embody those qualities, but am now challenged to step up and demonstrate them. Wish me luck!

I wish you and yours good fortune and blessings.

Peace,
Isaac

STATE OF THE PLANET UPDATE:

“Endings and Beginnings”
by Isaac
January 14th, 2022

Happy New Year (of the Tiger?)

​For my first article of 2022 I had intended to discuss some of the more significant Astrology and Energy events for the second half of the month of January.  As usual, the Universe sometimes has other ideas, and all it takes is one or two events not looked for to change one’s outlook and direction.  I will address what that event was in brief, then attempt to describe the Energies of the moment as succinctly as I can.  Remember…what I offer is only an opinion, and whatever information or guidance I supply must either resonate in your being somewhere, or not.  If it doesn’t vibe with you, chuck it out the window!

Right after New Year’s weekend I decided to not launch myself back into my myriad projects and unfinished business that had been dogging me since before the Christmas break.  Instead, I opted remaining quiet and observe what has been going on inside and outside of myself.  There was just zero impulse to push or make anything happen…at least not yet.

Then, this past Monday morning I received word of the death of a very close friend whom I met during my days of living in West Cork, in the south of Ireland.  She was a vibrant, engaging soul, with a winning smile and loads of intelligence. She worked at one of the only two health food stores in the area and was super knowledgeable about diet and supplements.  She eventually went on to study and get a degree in nutritional coaching and natural medicine and had a thriving practice in her hometown.

My marriage was faltering at this time, and we shared all the usual ups and downs about love, relationships and so on.  She was in and out of relationships during this time, and we provided a sounding board and support for each other which was treasured.  We also laughed a lot over delicious coffees and Irish scones.  In any case, after my separation I moved back to the U.K. and she went on to live part-time in the south of Spain, doing a lot of her health consulting work online.  Then the pandemic and lockdowns ensued, and things changed quickly.  She came back to Ireland, and basically got stuck there.  We had been in regular contact all last year, and I last spoke with her about two weeks before Christmas.  There was no indication of anything being amiss.  Exactly 30 days passed between that conversation and her death. 

​My partner and I both knew her very well, so we are still reeling from the sudden shock of her passing.  The suddenness of someone’s death is always a blow, especially when someone is as young, vibrant, and infinitely kind and compassionate as she was. It also gets you to focus on what is essentially important. The details and business of life looks somewhat banal and meaningless by comparison.  Strangely enough, I had just finished reading a book a few days before this sad news that is all about death and dying.  It’s entitled “Home with God” by Neale Donald Walsch.  I highly recommend it to anyone who desires a different perspective and deeper understanding of this touchiest of subjects. 

Of course, I went looking for any clues in her natal chart that might shed light on her death but came away mostly unsatisfied.  However, the energies that we currently are experiencing have been somewhat less frenetic and at the same time a bit wobbly. In that vein I will attempt to provide some insights as to what we can expect going forwards from today until the first of February.  But before I do so, I would like to invite anyone who feels so movedto offer a blessing for my friend that passed on this week, and to send healing and comfort to her family and the multitude of friends and grateful clients she had.  I was one of her clients during 2021, and her assistance was a key to my recovery from a serious health issue.  Her name was Alison, from Cork, Ireland.  Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
​
People are being born on this planet every single minute and dying every single minute.  It is part of ‘What Is So’.   To come to grips with one’s mortality is a heroic and necessary part of living, and we don’t give near enough attention to this part of our journey.  No single person’s death is insignificant, nor is it random, no matter what the manner of passing they’ve chosen.  Taken as a whole, it is important to acknowledge that we would do well to acknowledge death not as a curse, but as a rite of passage that is part of our coming into the wisdom and remembrance of who we really are. At some point even death will cease to be held in fear.  The need for dying will itself will also vanish once we have reached a particular stage of reunion with our Source Consciousness. This is where every soul is bound, no matter how long it might take us.

 The Energy Recap – January 14th to January 31st, 2022:

The astrological weather has now gone from being rather subdued to becoming very jumbled and uplifting, all at the same time.  Mercury will begin its first retrograde journey of 2022 today, reversing direction at 11:40 AM GMT at 10 degrees of Aquarius, and conjunct (close) to Saturn at 14 Aquarius.  In fact, by the time you reading this, it has already begun.

​Between now and February 3rd the Winged Messenger will travel backwards through the early Aquarian degrees into the Earth sign of Capricorn, before turning around and heading back to where it started at 10 degrees of Aquarius.  All Mercury Retros take about 9 weeks to complete.  The shadow phase about two weeks prior to the retrograde point, then the 3 weeks or so for the actual backwards journey, then two more weeks to traverse the degrees forward till he arrives back at the starting gate.  We get four Mercury Retrogrades this year…very unusual!

During this retrograde Mercury will conjunct Pluto at 26 and 27 degrees of Capricorn.  A relentless digging to unearth some truth will be happening, collectively and individually. If you have any natal planets hanging out between 25 degrees of Capricorn to 10 degrees in Aquarius, Leo, Pisces, or Virgo, you’ll get to see what gets lit up in your blueprint.  Also, and I am serious about this, Mercury Retrogrades ask us to examine what we’re thinking about, and why, and if there’s any truth still in those thoughts. We can take this opportunity to put more emphasis on our intuition and feeling natures, rather than simply rely on the monkey-mind in our left-brain. 

It also is a good idea to back up data, check your anti-virus update status, avoid starting a new business or enterprise, sign any important documents, or make any big purchases that involve electronics or vehicles.  Purchasing land or a home?  If possible try to postpone signing anything until early February.  Again, work with the energy consciously…and don’t panic if you must buy a new toaster or something like that. Just do what is necessary without anxiety or pushing. 
​
On Monday the 17th we get a real corker of a Full Moon.  Sun and Moon at 27 degrees of Capricorn and Cancer respectively.  Just before that happens, the Sun and Pluto well team up on the 16th.  Then on the 17th at approximately 11:37 PM GMT the Sun, Pluto, and Juno conjunct each other, and Juno gets up close and personal with the Moon.  This will be an interesting mix with the emphasis on several disparate issues.  The Sun energy is about core identity, Juno about preservation of traditions – especially regarding families and couples, and Pluto, the Lord of Death, whose archetype represents relentless growth and transformation through letting go of anything that no longer serves us…willingly or not!  All that energy is harnessed behind the Nodes of the Moon, and opposite the Moon in Cancer (see chart below). 

​This chart is very wobbly, without any symmetry or balance.  Hence the Moon becomes the recipient of a load of conflicting energies from Sun, Pluto, and Juno.  It may feel like our egos experience multiple ego deaths of one degree or another.  Again, if you have any sensitivity to all this look for any planets or angles in your blueprint that are at or near 26 degrees of Cancer, Capricorn, Aries, or Libra.  All of these signs are in the Cardinal elements, so it may feel more pressing and stronger than usual.  Of course, the energies of Capricorn and Aquarius are at present defining the feeling that our space is shrinking. Tyranny or draconian agendas are trying to get firmly entrenched, just hoping that the extreme levels of fear being generated will force compliance to “the rules.”  I will provide you with new data over the next few weeks that counterpoint and countermand these impulses, along with my interpretations of what we need to be paying attention to, as well as what actions we can take as individuals to preserve our freedom to choose how to live the lives we want to live, and to establish and strengthen our commitment to health and healing on all levels of our experience of being human…and divine, and part of this planet and the Cosmos.

The third biggie is two days later, when Uranus finally turns direct in the sign of Taurus. Uranus has been idling along in backwards motion since turning Retrograde on August 19th, 2021.  Having this archetype-energy of unpredictability and revolution turning around in the energy of Mercury Retro and a punchy Full Moon will give us that same kind of thrill as that moment you get just before the roller coaster tops the first big hill and begins its descent on the far side. Thrilling, but you may feel a bit white-knuckled by the sudden acceleration.  This energy is the proverbial unforeseen monkey wrench in the works.  Watch for possible shifts in global financial or commodities markets.  I always recommend the Solari Report or Trends Research Journal for analysis and updates that make sense and possess a high degree of integrity.
​
Lastly, next week’s marathon includes the Nodes of the Moon changing signs from Sagittarius-Gemini to Scorpio-Taurus.  Since Uranus is in Taurus, and Pluto is also in the Earth sign of Capricorn, the Nodes will stimulate those two outer planets significantly over the next eighteen months or so.  The North Node in Taurus will trine Pluto on February 6th, and conjunct Uranus August 6th this year.  There are many more aspects that the transiting Nodes will make to inner and outer planets, but these two dates I’ve provided may stand out large.  The archetype of Taurus represents in symbolic form the themes of tribe, primary partner, sex for procreation and pleasure, fecundity, planting the crops, food growing and distribution, natural resources, money or modes of exchange, home and shelter, clothing and implements and in short anything that has to do with security and comfort.  Scorpio resonates with acquisition, issues of power with or power over, Life, Death and Sexuality, legal proceedings, wills, inheritances, legacies, property, mystical practices and secrets, desires, obsessions, passions, and simply getting to the bottom of things.
​
After these events take place, the Sun moves into Aquarius on the 20th of January, and then just five hours after midnight on February 1st, we get a New Moon at 12 degrees of Aquarius, conjunct Saturn at 15 degrees of Aquarius. This for me is of those testing points, on what sort of Aquarian Age will we choose. A human one, or a transhumanist one. We will have to wait and see what we present to ourselves and what the world presents to us after the events of next week. On February 1st the Chinese New Year begins in the sign of the Water Tiger. Grrrr...

Summary: We have two very strong allies in the skies during all of 2022: Jupiter in Pisces and Chiron in Aries. The Jupiter effect is to expand and amplify, throw blessings around, and in Pisces encourage us to seek a deeper spiritual connection within ourselves and our Planet. It is a gentle and loving hotline to Home, to Spirit. 

Chiron in Aries will be reminding us to that we are all individual expressions of the Divine, and that we possess the authority over what we allow or do not allow.  Chiron was the outcast, the loner, and so it may feel like that for anyone who is personally resisting mandates and the intense coercion to comply with outer authority or herd mentality.

Perhaps mass demonstrations and protests are useless.  Perhaps each one of us standing in our power of "no" is the way to go.  A perspective worth investigating and pondering for sure.  There are many people throughout our history who embodied this quality of spirit: Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Robert Kennedy, Malcom X, the hunger strikers in Belfast prisons during The Troubles in Northern Ireland.  Individuals and small groups of people who demonstrated courage in the face of overwhelming opposition, and at great personal cost to themselves.  Will we dare to follow in their footsteps?

Solar Activity:

From Spaceweather.com – “SOLAR CYCLE UPDATE: Solar Cycle 25 is heating up. New sunspot counts from NOAA confirm that the young solar cycle is outperforming the official forecast. monthly value at the end of December 2021 was more than twice the forecast, and the highest in more than 5 years. The "official forecast" comes from the Solar Cycle Prediction Panel representing NOAA, NASA, and International Space Environmental Services (ISES). Using a variety of leading indicators, the Panel predicted that Solar Cycle 25 would peak in July 2025 as a relatively weak cycle, similar in magnitude to its predecessor Solar Cycle 24. Instead, Solar Cycle 25 is shaping up to be stronger. Sky watchers have already noticed the change. "We are definitely seeing the effects on the ground in the Arctic!" reports Chad Blakley of the Swedish tour guide service Lights over Lapland. "Auroras now are the best in years." – Data courtesy of Spaceweather.com.​

I cannot report any hard data at this moment regarding interstellar influences per se, such as the Schumann Resonance fluctuations or gamma rays coming in from deep space. However, I am aware that we are experiencing massive influxes of energy that perhaps originates from other dimensions of parallel realities.  Coupled with the end of the Long Count Mayan calendar and end of time (as we’ve known it), and the turning of the great ages from Pisces to Aquarius, we are all being offered a new set of choices.

What we do with these intense times in response to the many forms of stimuli we are receiving is still hanging in the balance. There are many serious and pressing issues we face as a species. Will we have the courage to do the right thing, and choose Life – an organic and dynamic state of being while having a human experience, full of light, health, equanimity, and joy?  Or will we submit and succumb to the will of others, or other forces, that seek to enslave and dominate?

We are coming to a time of many endings, and a time of many new beginnings. I am feeling quite optimistic about it all.  I would just prefer the transition to be a lot less full of uncertainty, pain, and suffering.  I hope you feel the same  way as well.

Blessings on your journey…

Peace,
Isaac
