The Water Oracle Monthly Horoscope
2020 HOROSCOPE
A Work in Progress
WINTER
Theme: Co-create not spectate!
The beginning of winter finds us in a healing cycle. Lots of upheaval from 2019 may still be causing some to be still needing recovery. A respite from turmoil or the frustration of progress thwarted or stalled. It is hibernation time. Though you shouldn’t need permission to take a break, you definitely need one. Try to allow these initial few weeks to be somewhat recuperative.
The end of 2019 may leave many with an unsatisfied taste in their mouth. Changes begun or strived for have not yet been accomplished and have left us with a lingering feeling of stagnation instead. We still recognize that changes are needed or much desired, but now we are struggling to find ways to bring them about. This is how December ends, but it not where we dwell for very long. The energy of change is still woven into the fabric of these winter months. The cycle is not complete, therefore the power remains for us to manifest the outcomes we desired. Whatever shifted for you in 2019 is only mid to ¾ of the way towards manifestation. What does this mean? It means, DO NOT GIVE UP. We need to maintain our intentions and vision. We need to raise our vibration back up to fierce. Once you’ve had a little time to chill this winter it’ll be time to get realigned with your master plan and start strategizing real goals and brainstorm the detailed steps you can take. Capricorn energy lingers in the air rekindling our need to apply ourselves to something worthwhile. It inspires us to believe that we have a purpose and kindle the desire to keep going. Write it all down. Vision board the shit out of your goals. What do they look like? Are they achievable? Get excited again. Imagine the winter as a time for you to prepare for an epic quest, imagining your destination like you are plotting a course on a map. But how will you get there? That stumbling block will finally be cleared out of your way the back half of January. Things will begin to shift right around or slightly before we move into Aquarius and put our universal thinking caps on. Aquarian energy is clever and the wisdom that can be gleaned from the past is vast. Combine that with a little intuition and emotional intelligence from Pisces in February and we will be rocking and rolling back on track! Hallelujah!
SPRING
Theme: Lead with the heart not with the head
There are big swings in universal energy from late March through early June. Big shifts! Most of Spring will find us all grinding away, spending much time on our work and that which we are most passionate about. Creative breakthroughs come to pass fueling us forward. The spring months will require patience however while we shift back and forth from our emotional self to our analytical self and back again. Lots of relationship stuff comes up. Our relationships with people, our work and ourselves. It will be a continual balancing act between critical analysis and emotional intelligence. However, the advice is to feel our way through. We will need to balance our emotions but also our personal time. Work – life balance is important. Creating personal rituals for health and wellbeing will be beneficial as you work to build relationships wilth all the things that matter to you.
Love is in the air, passions ignited. Feel all the feelings and use them as the compass and tool they are meant to be. This will mean controlling and tempering the behavior that is initiated by those emotions too. Our emotional barometer is the “red light, green light” of taking action or pausing. We’re feeling good, secure… move forward. We’re feeling upset, agitated… stop and assess the situation further. This is a fundamental tool of your well-being. Do not take steps forward towards something that doesn’t feel right. Common sense, yet we do it all the time.
Spring should be a time of applying oneself towards what we love doing and spending time with people we love. Find your friends and make plans. Make new friends with similar interests. Get out there and join clubs, groups and workshops which align with your beliefs and passions. No? Doesn’t sound like you? Okay try being of service to others and volunteer somewhere. The key here is to connect, connect, connect. Spring is about coming out of hibernation mode and getting back into the swing of living outside of your own head. Feel and share those feelings with the people around you.
SUMMER
Theme: New beginnings reveal a different side of you.
The summer months we will be pushed to focus on new perspectives, new beginnings, projects or developing new ideas that continue our positive momentum forward. All this newness will require us to let go of any past disappointments and heartbreaks. Try not comparing the present to the past and assuming the worst. Allow yourself and the people around you the benefit of the doubt. The summer months will present opportunities for us to embrace who we are as an asset. Our uniqueness, the way we are different from others is just that, an asset. Though in the past this aspect of yourself was something you hid, the universe is now asking you to you reveal it and use it. It is what will attract what you seek most. Sounds crazy but it’s true. Your freak flag is your ticket in.
In the summer we’re still working on emotional balance but during these months it’s all internal. It is all about controlling the internal dialog as we struggle to be vulnerable and show the world the pieces of ourselves we have hid away or have felt uncomfortable with. You are good enough. Share struggles with friends and learn how to share your unique story with others. Build bonds and find strength by sharing and learning from the people around you.
FALL
Theme: Decisions, decisions.
More opportunities to evolve and thrive are on the horizon. Many will feel challenged to jump into another epic quest. Already? There is fear and anxiety that spikes during this time because of it. More change? Perhaps. There is plenty of time to decide. These events are more likely to unfold in the coming year 2021. They present themselves as paths that you could choose from. You may not have thought this time would come again so quickly but important choices will be on the horizon as the year ends. Before we can arrive at the point of feeling comfortable enough to choose, we will need to work through all the fears we have about the decisions we must make. Until we can do so, we will feel stuck. Try to harness that monkey mind for good though. Imagine what could go right rather than what could go wrong. Apply the emotional intelligence you gathered this year and apply it to what you’re feeling. What are you really afraid of? Make decisions from a place that is aligned with your life goals and from a place of emotional security. Red light – Green light how you feel about your options. Making a decision to move forward allows for the final pieces of your transformation or changes you were seeking to take hold. Try getting excited about the potential for the positive here. We can end the year with as much potential as we begin it with.
Happy New Year to all! Good luck to you in all your endeavors.

2020 A Year Working With Vulture Energy
Vulture is a story of sacrificing for the greater good. With her energy coming with us into 2020 she is acknowledging that sometimes the journey is difficult. We may have had to put the needs of others ahead of our own. That we may have had to shelve our plans or our progress to take care of bigger concerns first. The good news for 2020 is that the sacrifice part of the story is over. This means the focus is back on us. Our power can be used towards what we want to do rather than what we have to do. Vulture energy can teach us a great deal more than sacrifice, especially since we’ve passed that point in the journey. I’ve outlined some of the most valuable takeaways from what vulture can bring.
Powerful Lessons Vulture Energy Guides Us Through This Year
Purification: the need to release what doesn’t align with the life you want, the changes you are trying to make or your better health and well-being. It entails working on letting go of negative patterns of behavior, as well as managing grief and learning how to process and manage trauma. The influence of vulture is about restoring harmony and balance to our lives. This will come in many shapes and sizes depending on where you need this particular medicine. It may mean healing old emotional wounds, finding work-life balance, etc. Vulture will also help us focus on wellness and restoring good health practices. Her energy helps us recognize our bad habits and work towards healing them.
Death and Rebirth: We are constantly evolving creatures. Like a snake we must learn to shed the skin of who we thought we were in order to become who we are meant to be. Allow yourself to try new ways. Push past the fear of loss so that you can gain access to the potential of what is possible. Today is not yesterday. Rebirth is a chance to cling to what works and let go of what is not yielding results or bringing you joy. Vulture energy allows us to build on a clean slate from a solid foundation.
Truth: In vulture energy we meet the archetype of the Egyptian goddess Maat, the goddess of truth. If a new beginning is going to succeed it must be built on and around truth and honesty. Be honest with yourself about where you are, who you are and what you truly want. It is also important to be honest with the people around you with what you want and how you feel. Stop saying yes when you mean no. This archetypal energy also reveals truths as well. It can lead you on a journey of self- discovery, unraveling mysteries about the past or where your true abilities and purpose lie. Vulture and Maat can also help us discover what all the hard work and suffering has been for. Why is it taking so long? This is a year where you will finally start to understand and be able to make peace with the length and difficulty of the journey you have been on.
Detachment: In vulture we find a little Zen Buddhism. The lessons it brings are about learning to detach yourself from expectation. Pre-determining what things should look like, feel like, etc. is the road to disappointment and often gets in the way of us enjoying what actually is. Detachment or non-attachment does not mean not feeling. It simply means letting go and embracing what comes, Attachment to what we think things should be like causes suffering and pain. While its good to have standards and important to have beliefs, not everything will live up to our imagined expectations. Detachment allows you to make room for and peace with reality.
Flight: Vultures are beautiful and graceful in flight. Their ability to soar seems effortless. It is because they are using little to none of their own energy but the energy of thermodynamics. What this means to us is that this year’s effort will not seem so arduous. Learn to work smarter rather than harder. Use resources you have already as the base. Glean the wisdom from the experiences of the past few years, even from things that didn’t work out. This year you will only need the knowledge you have already to get started. Network and use the connections you already have to gain access or move forward. Vulture says you are not starting from scratch because you have already learned how to fly. Now you are just going in new direction.
The Committee & The Wake: Vultures are highly social creatures. There are several names used for the way they gather.. A group of vultures is called the committee and is similar in context to the way we use the word tribe. A flock of vultures in flight is often called a kettle and a group of vultures feeding together is called a wake. People gather in similar types of groups; friends, family, co-workers, etc. Vulture energy pushes us to create strong communities of people around ourselves this year. If we have established this already it is time to add new members to the flock or to invest more time with feeding these relationships. Take a look at who you bring your important information to. Who are you sharing the stories from your journey with? Time to access who the members of your committee are. Do they have good judgement? Are they supportive? Do they have positive energy? Do you trust them? The committee are the people you can trust most in life. They are the ones who would bury the body with you, no questions asked. In the wake, the vultures gather to feed. The wake on a human level are the like-minded souls we gather with who we share our interests or beliefs with. The wake are the people we feed our souls with. These are the people we go explore with and pursue our craft with. They are the people in our churches, the ones we play soccer with or go to yoga class with. Spirit is urging us to come together again. We are drifting as people, further and further apart. Build social groups for yourself and help your children do the same.
Vulture is here to help foster a loving, social environment which focuses as much on your own needs as well the needs of others. She teaches us to spread our wings and soar and to build our lives based on truth and a belief in ones ability to reach new heights.
May the luck of the cosmos be yours!
