The new year is a time of new beginnings. It is a time of fresh ideas and new opportunities as we wipe the slate clean and prepare to embark on new adventures. However, outside of changes in our strive and mindset, it is also a time rich in new astrological events that are sure to bring many unique energies to our space all year long. While certain annual astrological events shake up our lives each year, there is always a chance for some new rare occurrences, as well as some events that are just likely to impact us more than others. And today, we’re going to talk all about them.Â
In this blog, we’re going to go over ten of the most significant astrological events of 2023 and how they’re likely to impact our lives. Let’s get started. Â
December 29, 2022
The new year is upon us, Zodiac signs, and it’s likely to be a big one. While 2022 was thought to be a year of insight, growth, and clarity for many of the signs, 2023 is likely to be a big one for change and alignment. While there are still likely to be trying times that challenge us and push us toward growth, this year is likely to help us stick closer to our divine path than ever before.
With that said, the year is going to kick off bright with a lot of energy for many of the signs, but it could also be a bit slow-moving. This is because we will start the new year off with both Mercury retrograde and Mars retrograde, which could make us feel slower, more irritable, and more emotional than usual. But thankfully, this will end before January is over, and we should have no problem getting back on track. In March, Saturn, the planet of responsibility, will enter the Pisces sign, which is likely to encourage the path ahead to clear and could help manifestations fall into place more easily. Later in the month, Pluto in Aquarius will likely bring changes to our lives that could have the potential to be quite big. As such, this is likely to be an auspicious time for the signs to align more with their destiny, as big changes are likely to begin pushing you in new directions.Â

As we prepare to say farewell to 2022, we welcome December, a month of change and renewal to send us off with flying colors into the new year. As the last month of the calendar year, December is likely to bring some closure to the events going on in our lives and present the signs with the opportunity to sit down, reflect, and plan out their future. As such, this is likely to give us a chance to get our life together more, slow down, and enjoy the moment with loved ones.Â
Aside from the general vibe of the month, December is likely to be quite an active month for the planets, with key influences coming from Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter. To start, we will kick off the month with Neptune going direct in Pisces in the first week of the month, stirring up a dreamy and imaginative aura that is likely to help us find better clarity in our lives. Mercury will then move into the sign of the Capricorn on the 6th of the month, boosting our communication and pushing us to speak more freely about the things on our minds. A few days later, Venus will move into Capricorn, which is likely to put a focus on our relationships for the next several weeks and help us find more stable ground within them. On the 20th, Jupiter will enter the Aries sign, encouraging expansion, new energy, and passion in our lives.Â
Then, on the 21st, we enter the season of the Capricorn, which is likely to push the signs to become more serious about the path ahead and work to start planning out their future better. This is also the same day that Yule begins, bringing with it a powerful period of restrospection, transformation, and rebirth. To end the month, Mercury retrograde will begin in Capricorn on the 29th, ushering us to reflect and slow down as we move into the new year with a steadier and calmer pace. And, with Mars retrograde still actively going on until January, this is likely to slow our energy even more so.Â
As you can see, December is likely to be full of many unique energies that are likely to inspire many changes within us as well. But, to give you a better idea of some energies that may be present around you this month, today, we're going to go over what energies and changes each Zodiac sign can expect throughout November and how you can adjust your life to make the most of them.Â

Moving deeper into the cooler winter months, we welcome November, a month of relaxation and coziness into our lives as we all begin to snuggle into the cozy season and direct our focus more toward family and personal connections. However, this month doesn’t just mark the start of the holiday season; it also marks a powerful season of new energy that is likely to help the signs progress on their path of growth.Â
With that said, we will kick off the month in the sign of Scorpio, which is likely to bring more emotional, mysterious, and passionate energy to our space. As a result, this month, we may find ourselves directing our focus more toward our relationships, which could make this a powerful month for couples to grow closer. At the same time, this is also likely to direct our focus toward our personal passions, which could help to welcome new ideas, new opportunities, and new progress on our goals.Â
Aside from the Zodiac influence, we welcome a full moon and lunar eclipse in the sign of Taurus in the first week of the month, prioritizing our need for balance and pushing us to work through any problems of the past we may be holding onto. To follow, around the 16th, Venus, the planet of love and beauty, will enter the sign of Sagittarius, which could ignite our hearts and bring a more spontaneous and energetic approach to our love life for the next several weeks. Around the 22nd, we enter Sagittarius season, welcoming some ambitious new energies in our lives that are likely to direct our focus towards our goals, as well as push us to grow and align more with our authentic selves. And lastly, on the 23rd, Jupiter will also become direct in the sign of Pisces, which could help to restore any lost creativity in our lives and help us to become more in touch with our emotions and intuition.
As you can see, November is packed full of many different energies that are likely to direct our focus towards stillness and growth as we delve deeper into ourselves than we have all year.

The hot summer days and long hot nights are just around the corner as we make our way closer to summer. The earth is flourishing, the sun is growing in strength, and all around, the world just seems a little merrier. For that reason, it’s time we start bringing out all our summer-themed decor and items for our personal practices, such as crystals aligned with the sun and its energy.Â
In the summer, the energy around us is new, fresh, and beaming with potential. New confidence and adventure inspire our world, helping us to strengthen our personal power, overcome obstacles, and live our life a little more freely. Not to mention, summer can also invoke feelings of joy, passion, sensuality, and grounding within us and can be an excellent time to work with some summer-themed tools. For that reason, changing up the crystals you work with each season is incredibly important and can help you to channel this into your life and your practices and even help to make your intentions and rituals that much stronger.
