Predicting 2020, 2021 and 2022 With Astrology

1. HI Jessica, 1983 – the fateful year in my life – many wonderful times when I was finishing college and involved in sports and was so happy. Yet, it was a horrible year, where I was forced into an arranged marriage and went through the ceremony in India and it was the saddest day in my life where I was crying when the ceremony was taking place. I refused to follow the traditions of being subservient person just because I went through the ceremony and it took me 7 long years to get out of it. I left for the US from India in 1984 and consider June 4th my independence day from India even though it took me until 1989 to get out of the marriage I never was for. Reading the article about 1983 made me go back and I wondered how 2020-2022 will affect me – hopefully in a positive way. I would appreciate your insight from reading my chart. Thank you!

   1. I am so terribly sorry you were forced into an arranged marriage. I can understand your tears when the ceremony took place. The karma from 1983 means an apology or way of ‘making good’ with your former husband and his friends and family. I know it was a bad marriage for you, but you also have to see the wedding through their eyes, and your tears hurt pride and feelings. Take a deep breath because in 2020 or 2021 there will be a chance to settle the scales and balance them between you both/all.

      1. Thank you so much Jessica. The chance to settle the scales and balance could happen with my own family who arranged the marriage and saw the misery unfold and did not do anything about it for years until I hit rock bottom and had to take matters in my own hands to start a fresh in the US. With the India/Pakistan type of countries in the limelight, wonder what that spells in my life as my entire family is still there while I reside in the US with my own family now.

2. Hi Jessica – interesting! I was born in 1983 and I have a strange feeling that a previous parenthood potential partner may be coming back into my life from the 2001-2003 time period back when we first met. Visas and emigration issues were what split us up. What does my chart indicate for the next few years?

   1. Oh, you two have karma. There will be one discussion, meeting, email or (physical) reunion which shows you what must be sorted out!

      1. Thanks for your insight Jessica. Yes I can feel it. Our relationship feels frozen in time. Together but not together. He still has my image in his Facebook profile picture years on yet we have not spoken. Could what needs to be sorted out be a reunion, now that visas are meaningless, or will this more likely mean final closure? He’s a 7 Taurus 1985 birth year

         1. You may want to do this in early December to stop going back and forth with him, and then see where you both stand, in terms of emails or social media, to begin with. He is focussed on finance, 2020 and 2021 so the back story is really that he knows very well he has to marry, to have the best chance with property. The unromantic truth!

3. Hi Jessica

   I’m curious how this works for me given I have no Sagittarius factors.

   Regards
   Sharlene

   1. Sharlene, you’ll be affected by other people’s plans. Expect relocation/immigration shifts now through 2021, which utterly change your work sphere, friendships or home circle.

4. Hi Jessica, Absolutely none of this fills me with hope. It seems like we’re going back to dealing with Third World countries, Pakistan, India and Hong Kong instead of first World Europe (our main heritage) I do not see this as moving on to a bright future. I’m sitting here in beautiful Italy, upset by all the shenanigans of our stupid politicians and what we will lose. I see nothing exciting about trade with these other Commonwealth countries (a concept I loathed) of course, that’s all personal, but so so sad. It seems like we are exchangi g one set of overseas powers telling us what to do for another. My friends here in Italy seem to think a Brexit deal will be done in name only, something go print in the papers, but not in actuality. I know you’ve spoken about a final Brexit, and I understand things change, but there really seems like nothing to look forward to either. (I’m. Not a remainerr by the way, but I want government to radically alter.) Thank you, A.

   1. The bigger picture is actually the New Age of Aquarius which begins in December 2020 and changes the world from 2023. By then, the European Union, Great Britain, Italy, Ireland and Scotland question (which triggers pain from centuries ago, for all nations) will look very small indeed. Trust the teenagers and children. They don’t do politics, they do trees, birds, fish, animals, flowers. I absolutely love them and you can find them from Northern Ireland to Uganda. This is essentially what it’s all about, in the end. The trade carve-up and end of money laundering/modern slavery is a key part, sure, but ultimately it’s about ‘form one planet/save the planet’!

      1. This is so exciting Jessica. I feel a part of it as I have Uranus conjunct my Sun natally and it’s about to pass over my ascendant at the exact time that my Progressed Moon goes into Aquarius. I feel absolutely wired and tingling in a kind of pre warning state. I feel important changes afoot for the world at large and my own world. I love reading your blog.

5. Another great article, Thank you very much dear Jessica!
   I have this website opened in a tab on my device, and i keep refreshing it at least twice a day, morning when i get up and night, before i sleep to check if a new article uploaded.
   I can’t wait to see how and where my natal Uranus in Sag will take me from May 2020 onwards.

   1. Thank you so much. I will pass that compliment onto Alyas, Brooke, James, Jodi, Justin and Kerry – I think you’re the first reader who ever told me about refreshing a tab, twice a day. Uranus in Sagittarius is in your Ninth House of publishing, the internet, foreign people and places, cultural differences, universities and colleges, workshops and seminars. You periodically go through huge upheavals here, rejecting what you are taught – what you publish – what you write – what you learn – where you travel – with whom you cross international or cultural boundaries. You reject, and then are rejected. This makes your life unpredictable (predictably so, actually). As the South Node goes through Sagittarius, heading for Uranus in your chart, you will be heavily involved with a teacher or student you know about 19 years before. It does not stop there, though. This teacher or student figure knew you in a past life too. A foreign destination that seems strangely familiar to you is part of the story. You have some karma to complete by 2021.

6. WOah. What an article.
   I have a stellium in Sagittarius – sun moon Uranus Neptune Juno. The themes you describe about appearance all make sense and academia and a bit of Good old Capricorn thrown in the south nodes, past few years have been tough, I’m hoping things will be better in the few years. Karma themes are big – I’m 1981 child and there are major reworks going on around family members, tax property, I’m hoping I’ve got luck on my side?

   1. Thank you very much. Your entire life is about to transform, actually, but in a way that seems oddly familiar. You’ve had to expect that Great Britain’s departure from the European Union will change who comes into your local town/area – and who goes out. The Gemini-Sagittarius Nodal cycle is really powerful, beginning May 2020, and you are going to experience a direct hit in your (rather busy) Ninth House. We just don’t know the policies, rules and laws that will come in by then, and also in 2021, but it’s really clear that you have at least one past life in a particular foreign city or country, and have karma there. Those faces, spaces or places will come back to you.

7. Hi Jessica, I only have Neptune in Sagittarius. I can’t remember any foreign connections from 1983 when I was 8. What does this mean for me? Thank you. And I also check your website daily. Thanks for sharing your insights!

   1. Too funny. I knew so many readers would be scratching their heads, thinking back to primary school and wondering if they could possibly recall a geography lesson or foreign schoolfriend! It will come back to you in 2020-2021, as the Node goes over Sagittarius and you realise your Eureka moment. I have seen people go back to a town they visited on a school trip as a child but forgot – and find it rather life-changing..

   2. Hi ST – I’m exactly the same, only Sagittarius in Neptune in my chart and the same age. I have been scratching my head too! Really curious to see or revisit what is rolling back around.
      Good Luck to you!
      And thank you Jessica 😉

      1. You will be tempted by bargain air fares or flight sales to a part of your country, or the world, which you knew before. If you go, don’t be surprised to find yourself ‘knowing’ the area or feeling immediately at home. That is because you were!

         1. Thank You Jessica!
            I’m really looking forward to the coming changes, even the uncomfortable ones.

      2. Thank you Diana. Same to you!

8. Hi Jessica,

   This is so interesting! I have the South Node in Sag in the 9th house at 28 degrees. so will have my nodal return. I also have Sag in the 8th house at 4 degrees. In 1983 I graduated high school, moved, helped take care of my sister’s new baby. It was a time of transition for sure as I was on my own at that time and trying to figure things out. Can you peek at my chart and help me understand how this might affect me? Thank you as always for these readings; I’m always amazed at their accuracy.

   1. Graduating is a Sagittarius karma story so you could expect to go back to school, pursue workshops or seminars, perhaps teach what you learned, or even go further with college, as you go through the next Sagittarius node cycle in 2020, 2021. It’s your ongoing life education. You may also find that books/subjects from that time come alive, or physically turn up. This could easily be a subject you knew in a prior incarnation too.

9. Hi Jessica, I have a stellium in Sagittarius and 1983 was a very significant year for me and my family as we made a major move from a very cold northern climate to Florida, and while it was rough going the first year or so, it was the best thing overall for our family. How do I interpret the effect it will have on me and my family during the upcoming cycle beginning in 2020? Are we due for another major upheaval like the one we experienced in 1983?

   1. Florida is part of your past life inheritance, actually, and you have lived there before, perhaps in more than one incarnation. The next chapter in connection with your adopted home will arrive on this next cycle. You may ‘owe’ Florida, or perhaps she ‘owes’ you on some level. This goes beyond merely living somewhere, into being woven into the tapestry of its culture, buildings, natural environment, status and so on…

10. Hi Jessica, always, always love your columns! I am 4 Virgo with a lot of Sagittarius in my chart:
    ASC: 3 Sag
    Hyegeia: 13 Sag
    Chiron: 15 Sag
    Ceres: 9 Sag
    Salacia: 29 Sag

    Our son was born in 1983….4-21-83.
    I also have 5 signs in Pisces. Our son married a Pisces!!

    How does this all seem to play out for me?
    Thanks so much!! Jelz

    1. You are strongly Sagittarius-Pisces which is basically the signature of a surfer, diver, swimmer, sailor or keen angler and traveller. Have you gone there yet? We’re going into Sagittarius weather which could easily take you there, in quite a life-changing way, by 2021.

11. Hi Jessica, What if i wasnt even born in 1983? I have 4 factors in Sagittarius.
    thank you as always

    1. You have incarnated with past life memories of being an explorer, migrant or adventurer/lifelong traveller and if you have not already connected and clicked with a foreign country, quite deeply, you will do so in 2020. Don’t be surprised if you visit and know exactly which building you’re going to see around the next corner…or feel you’ve eaten that food/spoken that language…before.

12. Hi Jessica, thank again for all your work! Could you, please take a look at my chart and tell me what do you think I should do?
    I am almost done with my divorce (after 27 years of marriage and no kids) and I am waiting for my boyfriend of 6 years to do the same. But unfortunately he has kids, grandkids and is not that easy for him. The opinion of his family and friends about him is more important than his own happiness. I am getting tired of waiting for something that maybe will never happen. I am 56 years old and I think that enough is enough. I am ready for a new love and a new life!!! My boyfriend is 61 and a Gemini and his wife is a Pisces.

    Thank you,
    Alina

    1. Alina, this is about karma for your Gemini boyfriend and his Pisces wife. So, beyond your own chart, there are two powerful currents here and you are swimming against a tide that began about 19 years ago (for her) regarding their children and perhaps, grandchildren. From May 2020 that finishes and she may then start making some decisions – so will he – in fact, the middle of next year is a watershed for both these two with the final choice by 2021 at the latest. I just don’t know how long you want to wait for these two to sort everything out. I have to be honest and say there is a chance they will decide to stay, not go (after a choice of both). You consequently have your own decisions to make, if you are tired of waiting. These two have shared a couple of lifetimes together, perhaps more, and their children/grandchildren are involved on a past life level too, so you have been drawn into something bigger than you. Only you can make that decision to wait or walk.

13. Hi Jessica,

    I have three factors in Sagittarius, Cupido, Neptune and Minerva.

    What’s happening right now?
    Didn’t get my US citizenship yet – I didn’t apply for it either, even though I could – but want to now.
    My business has an import/export component to it.
    I’m not in a relationship with anyone who’s a long term partner material, lol.
    Looking forward to partner with someone in the beauty business, hopefully for an international market.
    Also looking forward to a karmic repay for all the (huge) effort I put into a previous relationship during 2001/2003.

    Thank you so much.

    1. You are in a global reshape now through 2020 and 2021 when you will be amazed at the flight bargains, relocation offers, currency exchange swings, new accessibility of rentals (or home exchanges), foreign invitations to work, study or more – and a big karmic decision. Nothing to do with sexual relationships. Everything to do with living or working in a new place, or taking an extended holiday there, which would have business results for you as well. You’d be amazed at what happens to the world economy when Britain starts exporting electric Minis.

14. When will the world leaders publically confront the reality of the xenos . Who will expose this : how we hide these things for 100+ years and consequently do their will? Trump won’t .Putin won’t . The EU won’t. You can’t have any “age of aquarius” without facing reality. Basically, it’s all fantasy.

    1. Which is exactly why we hit peak crisis in January 2020. Read my two-part series The Capricorn Effect, which was published here a long time ago.

15. Hi Jessica

    What an absolutely fascinating article!

    I have my South NOde in Saggitarius as well as my Desc. And I have had a deep feeling for most of 2019 that the next 3 years will change my life. I am French born (and was still living in France in 1983, moved to England in 1986) and have been living in Australia since 31 January 1998. I am a Jewellery Designer and decided in 2019 that international expansion was what I needed to make a success of my business. So I have just started listing my products on an American website, advertising in the UK and was featured in a pan Arab magazine. But France has been calling me back and I have long had a dream to buy a chateau in France and sell my jewellery there. THe US and NY in particular have also been strongly pulling me.

    Could you please shed some light on which direction my business might go and whether we will move out of Australia back to France?

    Thanks so much for your insights and I am so grateful to have your guidance.

    Best wishes

    Natalie

    1. Thank you. Your timing for jewellery design overseas is perfect. Congratulations on your feature in the Arab magazine. Now you want to buy a chateau in France and begin again. Natalie, once Great Britain has left the European Union, you will be amazed at the business and financial incentives for Australia and France, but also Australia and Britain (hours away from France). Watch the rules change, currencies change and incentives alter. Watch trade agreements change. This is right across 2020 and 2021.

16. Hi Jessica! How would you interpret a transit from one node to the other? Like when the transiting South Node in Sag conjuncts my natal North Node in Sag?

    1. The North Node and South Node Oppositions are triggers of old karma, as you might expect. It is amazing how much we come from migration (rather like the pilgrims setting off for America) or from active overseas duty (Romans posted to Africa). In 2020 and 2021 you will have the chance to travel to, or even move to, a place you knew very well before. The art, history, culture, beliefs, language, food will certainly speak to you.

17. Hi Jessica,

    Intriguing. Sag in the South Node at 4 degrees and heavily Sagittarian. I was 17 years old. 1983 was a very mixed year of good and bad but it also felt like a very important year.

    I am planning to revisit old school friends and places next year. I would be grateful for any insights into what will be important for me next year including the themes I need to work through.

    Kind regards,
    Patricia

    1. Patricia, you have timed your visit to old school friends in 2020 perfectly as the North Node goes through your Ninth House of education. Did you know that at least one of these friendships is past life in origin? Perhaps you are aware of that already as this friendship feels more like a family bond than just another schoolfriend. The theme is education, literally. You teach each other. You specifically teach each other about your beliefs, actually, so the other person may have strong views on religion, astrology, science – you tend to find the other person is coming from a completely different place in terms of his/her philosophy or faith.

       1. Thanks Jessica,
          I confess I had not thought about the past life connection in relation to school friends but it is definitely there. I think one lifetime with another female when we were male soldiers. I suspect Roman soldiers. It is a very strong attract and repel relationship. And with at least one other friend there is a close bond that could transcend time.

          1. If you have dreams about Rome or feel recognition when you visit museums with Roman artefacts on display, you will know why.

18. Hi Jessica – I don’t have Sagittarius in my chart. However, the urge to relocate to somewhere in Europe has been building over the years and now is ridiculously strong, but not possible. Is this my karma; to always dream but to never have? If so, karma is definitely a bitch.

    1. You’re talking about something else here – the transit of Chiron in Aries in your Fourth House of residency, houses, apartments, home town and country. The opportunity to relocate will be there in 2020 and 2021, as the South Node trines Chiron in the heavens as it passes through, and the North Node textiles it. Expect new rules, new currency exchange rates, new property and work options. It’s all pretty irresistible.

19. Jessica, I have quite the stellium in Sag which included south node, Uranus and Neptune. It doesn’t feel at this moment in time that this will affect me in any way as I have no links to any other country and given my profession, I would not make an attractive immigration applicant. What do you think?

    1. Tempting fate is what that’s called. Other countries will come to you, in 2020 and 2021, thanks to the new importance and huge significance of a person with a foreign passport and accent. It will be linked to training, new work, education or academia, workshops or seminars.

20. Hi Jessica, thanks as always for this advance forecast. I have Neptune 13 Sagittarius, Minerva 14 Sagittarius and Cupido 6 Sagittarius. Any insights you can share please re the next few years? I’m particularly focussed on my career and finances, health and love life. Career seems to be improving, finances and health maybe now on right track, love life is heartbreaking. Thank you for any insights you can provide, please.

    1. The South Node of karma will sweep over your Neptune, Minerva and Cupido in the Ninth House, after it changes signs in May 6th 2020 and build in importance until January 18th 2022, with particular focus on Sagittarius Season (late November to late December 2020 and late November to late December 2021). You will go back to teaching or studying a subject you were so interested in, during the years 2001, 2022. You will also travel back to a place that was important to you in those years, move there, or welcome one of the locals.

       1. Thank you – always appreciative.

21. Hi Jessica,

    Another great article to make me sit up and contemplate. I was a teenager in 1983 and there was a lot going on. There was a lot of disruption due to my parents marriage failing and I moved up to nine times between 1982-1984. Needless to say I also moved to the UK where my father was working at the time and came back to Australia three months later. I did have the fun experience of attending an English school. Needless to say my parents did finally separate, and just as well.

    The South Node return in Sagittarius in 2001-2003 was when I met my husband, married him and we had our first child by January 2003.

    I do wander what this next South Node return may bring. Hopefully none of the trauma or disruption of 1983.

    I look forward to reading more of your articles.

    Kind regards,

    Fran

    1. All that moving in the early Eighties is important, Fran. You ‘owe’ some of those people or places, and they ‘owe’ you. It’s usually spiritual, not financial. You have ties with your British school, the teachers and pupils there, and the country itself. This returns to you, for completion, as you go into the new Sagittarius Node cycle. Someone or something is owed by you, or owes you, and the circle will complete on a soul level.

       1. Thanks Jessica.
          I’ve been thinking about writing some children’s books about my dog who was my companion during this time and just as disrupted and displaced as I was. There are many anecdotes of her “adventures” but the subtext being constant to your four-legged friend as they are to you. I certainly feel she is owed that.
          There is definitely a spiritual connection to the UK. I would love to move back to be honest. I remember visiting Fosters Lodge in 1983 (now Great Fosters) and having a past life experience. It used to be Henry VIII’s hunting lodge and I found I knew my way around the manor and grounds. Then I stopped outside a door and wanted to cry only to find a child had died in that room.

          1. You must definitely go back to Fosters Lodge, or Great Fosters, and try to make your peace with the past, when you can. Sensitive people (mediums) used to be called ‘sensitives’ in the old days, and sensitivity to dogs is usually part of the story. I love the idea of a dog reflecting human disruption and displacement, in his/her own life story. Sagittarius rules publishing and as the South Node sweeps through that sign, you will see the publishing industry, online and in bookshops, open up in fascinating new directions with intriguing possibilities for you, with technology.

             1. Thanks Jessica!

                I’m inspired!

22. Hi Jessica

    Interesting article ! Thank you very much. I have my North Node at 26 Sagittarius degs. In 1983, I was living in Australia with my hasband and my son who was born there. Many years later, my husband had to relocate homeland to help his late parents run a family business which was unsuccessful. It was a tough upheaval for all of us. I have my own relatives still living there and my sister and family. I hope we dont have old karma left. We will not be relocating back to Australia as we have a home here now. From May 2020, what will happen when there is a transit of the NN in my natal chart ? Will there be a relocation again ?
    E.

    1. You will have the South Node crossing your North Node in August and September 2020, so I don’t know if you scheduled those months for a holiday or another relocation. It seems very likely you will travel then, or welcome travellers, and if so it is part of continuing karma. You’d have to expect family members, on this point.

23. I don’t know whether this is significant but on Oct. 23, 1983, a suicide bomber drove his explosives-laden truck into the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon. His bomb killed 241 U.S. service personnel, mostly Marines. While Iran sought to hide its responsibility for this act of mass murder, the evidence indicated the attack was carried out by an element of the Lebanese Hezbollah and under the orders of the Iranian government.

    I am worried because Oct. 23rd 1983 laid the foundation of America’s enduring relationship with Iran and if history is about to repeat itself ………well what can I say.

    What do you think Jessica?

    1. Iran is absolutely caught in the Sagittarius Node weather and so is its chequered history with America, including all the facts that have been hidden from both sides about the truth. It will unfortunately have to come back for inspection starting May 2020, continuing into 2021.

24. HI Jessica, I was a little girl then and have two factors including my North Node in Sagittarius. I’m set to participate in Egyptian dance classes in 2020, which are part of my ancestry. It was also at this time that my mother married my step father. Could you please tell me overall what to expect? My childhood doesn’t have many fond memories. Thanks.

    1. You have a past life in Egypt and will remember it, likely through dreams, as the Node goes through your Ninth House of foreign countries and foreign cultures and people. The dancing may seem very familiar and easy. Why? You watched it before, or did it before.

25. Hi Jessica,,

    What will repeat in my life, as I don’t recall anything significant happening at the age of 5.

    Thanks,

    VSN

    1. Most people can’t remember the age of five VSN, so you are not alone! On the most basic level, you will find that the Millennium (the year 2000) and the following year (2001) come back to you in terms of the whole planet. Back then the world shared a common fear, that our computers would be affected by The Millennium Bug. It actually brought the world together. Right now, the Climate Emergency is another global fear, bringing the planet together. Even as a child you may remember that atmosphere, as we went into 2000. Well, it’s back!

26. Hi Jessica,

    Such a thrilling read, thanks so much! I was born in 2nd June 1983 and as you mentioned I have a stellium in Sagittarius (Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, South Node and MC) and not only that my BA is in international relations and I have a masters and PhD Degree from an abroad university ( academia which I never planned to get in ) and almost all my work experience is in abroad either United Nations or other international organisations, sometimes I feel like I am a Sagittarius but not a Gemini 🙂

    After reading your article, I am incredibly curious what I should expect from the south node in Sagittarius, change of country for professional reasons (once again), partnership (maybe a marriage) or further travel???? I would be very happy if you say a few words.

    Again many many thanks

    1. You are living the Sagittarius dream, there, and must feel fulfilled by your life in academia and travel. When the South Node goes through Sagittarius from May 2020, right into 2021, you will be given the opportunity to work, teach or study in another country, either via a scholarship, grant or new vacancy. It would take you back to the years following the new Millennium, actually. You can’t really go wrong with the Node going over Jupiter in your chart and what unfolds will expand your intellectual and spiritual horizons. If you want a partner, then you have until the first week of December to do so much more with an opportunity which came your way a few months ago, which also opened a door. You’ve done nothing about that, really, but think about it.

       1. Sounds so sweet Jessica, thanks a lot for your insights.
          As for the partner, yes someone hinted that he liked me a few months ago but I assume he changed his mind later, sometimes even Jupiter cannot do much !

          Cheers!

27. Hi Jessica

    Very interesting piece here. 1983 was a great year for me— our marriage and first home was the beginning. I have always been keen to travel but foreign lands were not on the horizon for us until four years ago, when we travelled for the first time. And as much as I am hoping for something to happen in publishing, I have only one sign in my chart in Sagittarius. In that case, where do you see the influence of 1983 in my chart to suggest the return? I think I’m too old to begin study again and we moved to the sea three years ago, so another move seems unlikely!

    1. You are not particularly Sagittarius-influenced and your Ninth House is pretty empty (most people have an average of three factors there) so you would not necessarily expect the South Node in Sagittarius to change your life. You married in 1983 when Saturn and Pluto were both in Libra passing through your Seventh House of marriage, so that’s actually the story in your chart. I am sure your vows or promises to each other were deadly serious as this combination of planets in Libra, the sign of engagement and weddings, is a force to be reckoned with. You have also both survived the Saturn Return of the marriage itself, and any bond that can stay glued tightly through that, is one for the history books.

28. I have a big stellium in Sag. Hygeia, Juno, Sun conjunct the North Node at 17 degrees and Mercury at 20. 2001-2003 I fulfilled a lifetime ambition which I had inexplicably had since a tiny child in the UK to visit Argentina and ride out with the gauchos. I used to ask my parents for this when I was four or five. My trip was paid for by an option deal on a movie I wrote. Now it looks like another trip back to Argentina is on the cards for next year as I have made a lot of friends with connections there. My son was also born on December 17, 1981.

    1. Thank you for confirming the astrology predictions here. Have the most fantastic trip back to Argentina, where you must have had a past life.

29. Thank you for your wonderful overview Jessica, which fills me with awe and dread in equal amounts. These last couple of years have been too ‘interesting’ in the Chinese use of that word, for me!!
    I have my Sun, Mercury, Cupido, Salacia and Chiron in Sag and my South Node in Libra. In 1983 I was living and working in the Middle East. It brought about a change of career and this was when i started working (teaching) with refugees and asylum seekers. So a true Sag …. education in an international and multicultural context, and i continued with this work until 2013. Also it was the context for a disasterous marriage but thats another story. So, am I right to feel awe and dread about 2020-2022?

    1. I don’t know why you would dread 2020-2022. Yet, you are going to see new laws on migration, border control and ‘people flow’ right around the world, as the South Node moves through Sagittarius, covering the tracks of old transits by Uranus, Neptune and Pluto in Sagittarius, over many years. Some of this will take you directly back to the Middle East. Nothing to do with your disastrous marriage, but everything to do with globalisation, and you can bet that your work or study in 2020, 2021 and early 2022 will be affected as the South Node corrects situations.

30. Hi Jessica, I have a stellium of 4 factors in Sagittarius which include Uranus and Neptune! So this article does hit home quite a bit. In 2001-2003 I was studying in school. In particular Jazz music, and was also heavily interested in Indian classical music. Even though I was in my home country, does this indicate a strong possibility that I will reconnect with Jazz music and/or possibly move to India? (which has been on my mind for quite some time!)

    Also, about the visa thing… is there a possibility of me obtaining second citizenship (US citizen here)? As an expat and traveller, this sort of issue comes up every few months due to the fact I have to always renew work visas and such.

    Thanks for the wonderful article!

    1. Indian classical music, and India as a nation, calls you throughout the entire North Node in Gemini/South Node in Sagittarius cycle, from May 2020 until January 2022. I am sure you have seen how Modi is changing the nation. That will very likely embrace tourism, travellers, temporary and full-time migrants in a new way (India calls the Nodes Rahu and Ketu). In fact India will be part of a redrawn world map which makes travel or relocation more affordable, easier and less restrictive than it has been. This will partly come about as Great Britain leaves the European Union with all its rules and regulations on trade and business. So, putting all this together, you really need to keep your eyes open for opportunities.

       1. I am not surprised it’s in the astrology that India is calling! But what kind of opportunities should one look for? I may even have a change of career from music full-time (currently) to something else, perhaps to do with land or even writing (I don’t know!). Hard to focus on one thing. Is there any indication towards a certain vocation?

          1. You need to move with Mother India, actually, as this nation is set for the biggest transformation in over 240 years, starting in a small way in January 2020 and absolutely dominant from December 2020, into the years 2021, 2022, 2023. So, you have your ideas of what used to work for you professionally, and in business, but the country itself will tell you what she needs. India is a deep and mysterious country as you know and she speaks her own language and organises her own destiny. To say things are altering there is the understatement of the next 200 years. Yet, you will find your way. You’ll be shown, actually – a lovely man will beckon you forward. An advertisement will be involved – quite a garish one, so you can’t miss it.

             1. This sounds like a story movies are made from! Well, I’m not surprised to hear this although very happy to hear about it! I’ve had dreams where I’m in India talking with people I’ve never seen before. And often have encounters with people from there, not to mention my step brother and step sister were adopted from Kerala… an area where they practice an old form of martial arts (which for some reason has been calling me!). Too many connections! Thank you for this lovely insight, Jessica. Very exciting to hear of these possibilities! 🙂

31. Dear Jessica

    I’ve only now understood there are these wonderful articles beyond horoscopes. Thank you for such wonderful insights.
    I have also just re-read my Gemini annual horoscope and honestly about 95% of it resonates with me, unfortunately. Toxic relationships have blurred my mind for most of the year (for the first time in years) and honestly I can’t wait for this year to be over. My true Node is in Sagittarius, as well as my Neptune and I was born in 1975 so I am wondering how this Sagg karma will play out for me. I pray for more mental clarity, more reasoning and less energy vampires where it’s hard to set boundaries. As you can guess my ascendant is Pisces. 🙂

    1. Thank you. You are going through a year of ‘shakedown, wake-up and improvement’ where your former, current and potential partners are concerned. With Ceres and Jupiter both passing through your solar Seventh House, it was always going to be an eventful year, but two disappointments in particular have taught you a tremendous lesson about where things are really at, and where you really are! You were given two opportunities in 2019 and by now might have chalked up what could have looked like success stories to the rest of the world, but the truth is, your values, visions, tastes and ideas have changed. What used to be acceptable to you, no longer is. That’s perfectly fine, but you do need to find out what/who really moves you, and move towards that – yourself. There is still time. In fact you could go out on a high by the first week of December when the cycle ends.

32. Hi Jessica,
    I have Neptune in Sagittarius. Got into an arranged marriage in 2000, while in India.i was in the Army at the time. Started living together in 2001, but then he moved again due to job posting, until we got back together again in 2003. We moved to USA in 2006. It had been a looong traumatic marriage, I think for both of us. Husband is Sun sign Pisces. I’m looking at 2022 as the year for destination divorce. Any valuable insights on this Jessica ?
    Thanks

    1. You want to divorce your Sun Pisces husband? This seems more likely earlier, actually, as the North Node in Gemini will go through his Fourth House of property and family from May 6th 2020 until January 18th 2022. He has no other comparable transits of the Fourth House, or even the Seventh House (divorce) in Virgo, or Eighth House (financial settlement) in Libra. This very likely concerns his own parents, too, and any children you may have had (you do not say if you became parents or not). At the very least, May 2020-January 2022 is about the house or apartment for him, and settling karma with you.

33. Dear Jessica, I was eight in 1983. I remember the usual kid stuff, being curious, hating homework, annoying older brother, discovering life.. Your article made me look up the music from back then, this is how I remember and connect life events. I loved Chrissie Hynde’s short haircut and my mum did take me to the hairdresser, and they cut my long ponny tail but it wasn’ t exactly like Chrissie’s in the end… My mum kept that cut ponny tail, I still have it and I miss my mum… I have my Moon, Neptune and Ops in Sagittarius, any tips? Thank you!

    1. The South Node in Sagittarius travelled from 29 degrees of the sign, from March 17th 1983 until it reached 0 Sagittarius on September 11th 1984 and it is of course the sign of the centaur – the half-man, half-pony, with a ponytail literally at the back end. Your Moon, Neptune and Ops in the Ninth House, in the sign of Sagittarius, are part of your appearance and image, as well as a statement about who you actually are. Lopping the ponytail was a swipe at your Sagittarius identity back in 1983, even at the age of eight! As the South Node goes back to Sagittarius all these years later, you may well find yourself again – and it could be via the way you physically appear. It is certainly time for you to go galloping off, adventuring and exploring. Perhaps, riding. Maybe just hitting a ‘trail’ somewhere across your country or the world.

34. Hi Jessica such an interesting post and I have come to realise your astrology is incredibly accurate. I had been living above my means and suddenly we can’t afford it! Now I’m coming to realise I’ve put up with a lot I feel I shouldn’t have in terms of work and responsibility at home. Not having a work-home life balance. Also to the point that what worked for me since these last 7 years does not work now! All of that I realise is spot on! I also feel some self discovery and awareness and healing. What I don’t understand is my sag stellium. Any connections to foreign countries that I should realise? In 1983 I was 10. No bells are ringing. In 2000 I married and qualified as a lawyer. 2001 was not so significant. Im curious to know how the Sagittarius aspects influence me. I have a husband and two children 15 and 10 years.

35. So no mention of Scotland and our Independence, are you now saying we are trapped in this union because it wouldn’t be Britain or Great Britain if Scotland returns to Independence? For years you have mentioned Scotland leaving Union, now no mention?

    1. Scotland is leaving.

       1. Sadly, listening to today’s news we are “leaving” but not the UK but EU. In Scotland we can hope and pray that this is the final nail in coffin and soft No voters will now cross to the leave UK side. Nicola Sturgeon is going to call for the section 30 to allow us our Independence Referendum, legally through international law, no one has right to stop a Nation to become Independent so even when the Tories refuse us this, we will go the legal route and win, it is only fair that Scotland’s choice is granted, we voted to stay in EU by 62% and we are the only Nation out of four who is being ignored and not getting what we wanted which would have at least been what N.Ireland has a bit of both worlds so now I think most people will emphasise why we MUST now leave UK for our people.

          1. I predicted Scotland would leave the United Kingdom many years ago, at the time of your last referendum. If you hit Search and look up Scotland you’ll find the original astrology forecast. I think the earliest possible forecast of the break-up of the European Union was made during the Greek election, actually – years ago! Have a look. I’ll look myself later.

             1. Looking back quite a few blogs from around 2016 and beyond, you have been the most consistent of Astrologers who have seen the return of Scotland to its Independent status, something that may rest our ancestors in peace after 312 years when they were denied the vote whether to merge or not, only a select few thousand wealthy elite in Scotland got that vote and the ordinary people of Scotland rioted in their thousands to try and stop it. I think each Nation of UK are so far apart now, it is only fair we are pulled in the way our hearts desire and what has been universally predicted for a long long time or lest this island and surrounding islands will be forever in strife. Thank you.

             2. Thank you. Those old horoscopes for Scotland are astonishing. I know your referendum was supposed to be final, and we have to respect democracy, which the Scots always have. Yet you are now in this bizarre situation where England will leave Europe and there is a valid reason why you might go back to the polls again. Even before Brexit became real, I filed a prediction about Scotland going back for a second vote. I did not understand why at the time but it’s now clear. I don’t do politics, I do astrology, but your nation goes back centuries and we’re seeing a very, very old piece of karma come back here. Deep breath. You’ll become Indie Scots.

36. Dear Jessica,

    Thank you for the compelling post! I’ve Neptune, Minerva and Bacchus in Sag. Around 182/83, I was taken away from my grand parents who had raised me up until that time. My parents has decided it was time for me to move with them and my two sibling in another country. That decision was made over a month and it had a drastically negative impact on me. I cried every night for a long time and until today, don’t feel like I quite ‘fit’ with my family. In any case, I also recently started a new assigned working in the country (not physically), where I grew up with my grandparents (both have since passed). Could this be related and what can I expect? Thank you

    1. Thank you. I am sorry you had that experience on the last cycle. You cried yourself to sleep and you have never really adjusted to the loss of your grandparents, but also your physical home, roots, culture and place in the world. Yes, this entire cycle is about that. Your grandparents are with you in spirit, care for you deeply, as you do for them, and you need to reconnect, if you do not already regularly do that. Get to the heart, soul and core of what you are looking for in the place where you grew up. What are you owed by the place? What can you give back? This is massive for you! Yet, in 2020 and 2021, you will come home to yourself, settle some very old karma and finally be able to move on for 2022.

37. Hi Jessica,,
    I dont have much on sagit what is in store for me?

    1. You will benefit from the world’s Sagittarius transit, which is about reconstructing trade relationships, business partnerships and goodwill agreements between countries which have been barred from contracts before. You are looking at a new world map with different opportunities for learning, working, travelling or relocating. On the most basic level you will be astonished at the incredible flight, hotel, Air BnB or housesitting options which come your way in 2020, 2021.

38. Jessica thank you for this insight. My husband is born February 21 1971. I thought I had been the biggest loser in this dead marriage. Lost pretty much everything including my soul. But the fighter in me kept hanging on. I do have two children in this marriage, aged, 17 and 10. Thinking of going back to school, for a two year doctoral degree. I won’t finish school until the end of 2021. That’s why I was looking to divorce after that. Are you suggesting that I might loose my house through divorce. Oh! No! I’ve no words to explain how I feel. Also i’m surprised you mentioned his parents. With dowry system, a sad tradition in India, money had been the bone of contention for them. His parents and his brother made him a dummy for their purposes.

    1. Please go back to school. The Node in Sagittarius in your Ninth House is telling you that you are ‘owed’ karmically – and would benefit from learning. A doctoral degree fits perfectly with the Node transit in your Ninth House, 2020 and 2021. I mentioned the parents because it’s in your chart. There is karma there, but honestly – think about claiming the education you deserve, again.

39. Hi Jessica
    Can you please tell which node is ‘comfortable’ in birth chart and by transit and which node is ‘frustrating’ in birth chart and by transit.

    In this article and many other posts- South Node by transit is comfortable, but the astrology oracle cards on the website say otherwise. Please help me gain better understanding. Pardon my use of words comfortable and frustrating- its just my code word for nodes.
    Thank you.

    1. The North Node and South Node are sometimes called ‘what we need to eat’ and ‘what we need to delete’ by astrologers. The North Node is seen as the head, so it shows what you take in, or feed upon, and the South Node as the tail, so this is what you should be excreting or getting read of! It’s a funny way of looking at life and actually it doesn’t work like that at all. The two are just part of an endless loop of time, and in a way, they constantly recycle each other. The North Node tends to feel more frustrating and stuck, rather like always having the same diet, or stuck with the same food in the local shop. The South Node can feel more comfortable, because you’ve let go. You’ve been there, done that, moved past, moved on, and so you are in the rather easy position of choosing if you actually want to go back there or not. Most people don’t. Yet, you can’t really do one without the other. Your North Node in Pisces and South Node in Virgo is a case in point. Your North Node is about what you are stuck with. Who you are stuck with. We’re talking about your relationship with your God, here. Nuns and priests. Astrology and astrologers. Psychics and mediums. Psychologists and psychiatrists. Dream coaches and therapists. Counsellors and gurus. Monks and rabbis. I have no idea what your religious or alternative spirituality background is. You can’t do a hell of a lot to change what you have been landed with, here. You can alter your reaction to it. You can reshape your response. That puts you in control. We also associate Pisces with ‘inner demons’ and sometimes a guilty conscience, sins or confession. The South Node in Virgo shows where you feel you can take it or leave it. You know it backwards. You’ve digested and absorbed here, many lifetimes over, and quite frankly it’s easy to leave behind! Virgo rules your health and wellbeing. Doctors and drugs. Healers and fitness. Surgeons and medicine. It also rules workload, duty, service. So, the body and the job. Both work in a loop!

       1. Thankyou Jessica! I mean it really!

          Nodes intrigue me and watching their transits and the scenarios they bring about humor me.

          In my case I have observed that working with the 6th house somehow balances my 12th house also. I will put it this way: when I work consciously and constructively with the 6th house, 12th house is taken over of seamlessly, which otherwise looms large over every other part of my life.

          I had wanted to join the sun sign school this year but dropped the motivation because of financial issues. Hopefully will learn from you sometime.

          1. Thank you. Sounds like you have the Sixth House/Twelfth House balance sorted out. Do join us for the 2020 Sun Sign School term!

40. Hello Jessica,
    What if the periods mentioned 2000 to 2002 / 3 were uneventful in that one wasn’t aware of, permitted to be one’s own – in personal and professional lives?
    I’d rather have nothing than have experiences from 2000 to 2003 play out , as I was, as I see today , in a stupor , not knowing anything about who I am , what I am for, etc. I did not travel or study during that time, it was some familial stuff , traumatic very. Now, my mother and I are completing work reg, finance and house bought during that period. Father was a tyrant even though he had come out a life threatening surgery. Madness it all was.

    It is now that I feel free, I know who I am, personally still on the path of learning, and professionally as well. I am on a major struggle with academia at present with univs abroad (two specifically) and profs but even thinking of 2000 + 2 years gives me a shocking shudder. No way I want even a glimpse of a shadow to come close in 2020 , onward. I have a Sagittarius stellium, no major planets though just Neptune, Hygeia, Vesta, MC, Diana and Pallas that you don’t consider in your study, and Jupiter in Gemini that is exact with Hygeia at 27 deg.

    I don’t know how this academic struggle is going to play out, especially since the struggle is financial and also about a chance that I think I regret I left in 2018 because of tensions at home.

    But if one is completely lost, during the past (2000 – 2003) and had no clue of living , of one’s identity whatsoever, will that past South Node affect still? I do hope not, but will it Jessica, acc to laws of astrology? This is so terrifying then. Thank you for all you do.

    1. I am terribly sorry your father was a tyrant. You have turned to your mind, to escape from your heart, soul and possibly your body as well, as these are containers for the greatest feelings. You know your mind is capable of just about anything and you have headed for academia. There is more to you and your life history than just the years I have mentioned. I don’t see a chart so I can’t tell you more. You have your own path to tread, regarding what happened to you, and how to sort that out. You’ll get there too, but what you need to do is understand that it’s lovely to live in your head, read widely and learn – but you also need to write for its own sake. A diary or journal. Shred it if you wish. You will not be judged, marked or rated. It will be therapeutic, if not actually life-changing and I suspect you would be tempted to do so in 2020, 2021. Just do it.

41. Hi Jessica, Thanks for a great article! I have a Sag MC 11 degrees and Part of Fortune at 22 degrees Gemini in 4th house. In 2000 I completed studies and 2002-3 I had a good connection to London for my textile design work, I have moved on to other areas of design and am thinking of using my designs for a book and storytelling. Do you see any possibility of this being published or good connections which support my work. Your insights are always appreciated. S

    1. Thank you. Yes, you will find a home for your designs with digital or traditional publishing, so this may be via paperbacks or hardbacks, websites or enhanced ebooks and so on. The old Ninth House of astrology ruled by Sagittarius used to be associated with almanacs and printing presses in the 17th century and of course today (especially with the Node into Sagittarius in 2020 and 2021) it will be cutting-edge technology. I’m glad you can be taken back to the future with your talents and qualifications, S.

42. Hi Jessica
    I don’t have any Sag factors but back in 2001 I started taking College classes in the evening and started a new job part time as a courier…maybe has something to do with all my Gemini factors in the opposite sign? Was I working more on the NN in Gemini?
    In 83 I was 13. we had just moved about half an hour to another town and that summer I sprained my ankle at an amusement park!
    And then starting at a new school and meeting new ppl. Wasn’t easy as I was quite shy back then. Not sure how that would apply now!
    Thanks for another thought provoking article!!! Cheers!

    1. Yes, the North Node and South Node are always in opposite signs, so in 2001 you were experiencing the North Node in Gemini and South Node in Sagittarius, crossing over your Gemini factors in the Third House, which rules education and communication. You began evening classes and funded them by working as a courier. You’ll be taken ‘back to the future’ in 2020 and 2021, likely by returning to education. You may also find yourself playing the messenger again, but on a different level. It is entirely possible you were involved in university or school life, the media, the post office and so on, in at least one prior existence too.

43. Hi Jesssica, A great article. I was wondering, i have neptune and ascendant in Sagittarius. How will a south node transition of my ascendant impact me ?
    By the way the advice you gave me for my previous posts was spot on. I recovered from it. Thanks.

    Regards
    Subramanya M.S

    1. Thank you Subramanya M.S and I am glad the astrology was spot on. The South Node conjunct your Neptune and Ascendant in Sagittarius in the Ninth House will return you to life as it was in 2001 or 2002, with another country, nationality or culture. You had a holiday from the real world then and were travelling, relocating or perhaps studying/teaching/working with a different face, from another place. You are owed, or you owe (karmically) and there are some things to complete. Thus, you may go back by 2002, or find that this culture or nationality returns to you. It can be a different region of your own country too, but it would have felt quite foreign to you at the time. A good way of checking is to search 2001 or 2002 on your email account and see where you were, back then!

44. hi Jessica,

    You have mentioned, the more Sagittarius factors you have (more than three is exceptional), the more your entire life will change 2020-2022. I have 7 factors in Sagittarius. Could you please take a look at my birth chart and let me know how will my life change?

    Thank you

    1. It’s already begun changing, actually, as you have been experiencing Jupiter and Ceres in Sagittarius in your Ninth House in the year 2019, and are set to experience more interchange with other cultures and nationalities, from May 2020, into the year 2021. It’s rather like finding yourself on the old Silk Road, navigating new journeys with other faces, from other places. That has been growing in importance this year and you have come away with a really good connection (at least one!) I hope you are following up.

45. Hi Jessica, Thank you for your long term future predictions. In Saggitarus I have Salacia at 28, and Jupiter at 22. At the same time in Gemini, There is Uranus at 22, and Hygeia at 20. When I verified my past, in 2001 November my wife left Japan, where we have been living, for the U.S. for 4 years. I myself didn’t move. And in 1982 April, I came back from Japan where I studied as a foreign student at that time for 3.5 years to my home country (at that time Burma). These were the only major events at those times. I came back again to Japan in 1993 February and naturalized in 2004, never go back to my birth country Myanmar (the biggest event in my life). Now that the South and North nodes are approaching again to Saggitarus and Gemini respectively, I wonder this time the major events, greater than those in 1982 and 2001, will happen to me in 2020. Please give me your accurate predictions, as always, for me.
    On the other hand, my business partner has Pluto at 0 degrees Saggitarus. Is it helpful for him and/or me? Thanks again for your intensive posts.

    1. Sure, you’re having repeated Sagittarius/Ninth House cycles regarding your wife’s departure from Japan to America, and your own transit from Japan to Burma, along with life as a foreign student.You have karmic ties in all three countries which suggest past lives lived in each, and as the South Node swings back to Sagittarius and your Ninth House, you will be finishing up. Collecting old spiritual debts owed to you, which have never been ‘paid’ and perhaps balancing the karmic books with others. We reap what we have sown on a Node cycle and are often shown things very clearly. From May 2020 you will see why. Your business partner with Pluto at 0 Sagittarius in the Ninth House wants to control the internet side of things, are you aware of that?

46. Thank you very much. I have now learned that Nodes are as effective as big planets. I’m very excited to wait the coming weather of Nodes changing.

47. 1983, I was in my mommie’s womb and she was going through a tough time because I am a girl child and her in-laws (my grand parents) weren’t really happy. Other thing I know is that grand mother was diagnosed with bipolar manic depressive and remained insufficiently treated for most of her life. Now, in 2019, after being single for over 9 years, I am desperate to get married but also avoiding desperate action. I am dating a 1984-born Scorpio in New York (where I live, too) and I cannot tell where things are going. I feel all at sea except my professional life – guess what – I might be offered an even higher position in Illinois. If I don’t accept the position and sit here in New York waiting, will my personal life turnaround? To move or not to move is the question!

    1. You may want to decide about the cost of your rent (presumably rent, in New York) and your salary, superannuation/pension and other financial considerations when Mercury is not retrograde in Scorpio, the finance sign. That takes a while. Can you wait until early December? I am focussing on the immediate issue which is Mercury (paperwork, agreements) going backwards and getting stuck (retrograde) in Scorpio (your bank account). The bigger issue is, you want to marry and are dating a very, very Scorpio kind of Scorpio! So it is about finance and property for this person too. Have you discussed this? Because this is the key with this person.

48. Hi Jessica –
    I read your article on Aesculapia and would like to know where it is in my birth chart. I am a Premium Member but do not see my chart.
    Thanks so much –
    Laurie

    1. Laurie, if you still can’t see your chart, please hit Support and we can help you. Thank you.

       1. Thank you.

49. What an exciting time to be alive! I have four Sagittarius factors including SouthNode. I wonder what the next three years the universe will bring especially my Jupiter return in this Dec. These two months (Sept/Oct) have been difficult with work and income. Also had a conversation with a work partner and it seems things aren’t going as well as I would like regarding business development which may prevent my financial growth. All these signs tell me that just like you said the real changes happen in 2020 Xmas and I need to be patient (very hard for fire sign!).

    1. Sagittarius has nothing to do with money or work. It’s solely concerned with emigration, travel, foreigners, education, academia, the worldwide web and publishing. If those are your goals, you will have a huge opportunity, not possible in 12 years, by the first week of December. You should really take it as it won’t return. If your priority is work, business, finance you’re looking at Virgo, Capricorn, Taurus, Scorpio in your chart. And that’s different.

       1. Thanks Jessica. I’m really appreciated your advice and knowledge of astrology. Travelling play a huge part in my life as it is my day job giving me the opportunity to escape where I’m from. I always wish to leave my home city and live abroad and or maybe even having homes in different major cities. I’ve been invited to perform in a country that I’ve never been to and I’m definitely feeling that more opportunities will come!

          1. Yes, the invitation to perform in a new foreign country is part of this Sagittarius cycle. It’s all starting to come together. If you are going to take the initiative here and put a lot of time and energy in, you could exploit an obvious success story that you know for a fact is due in November and do so much more with it, by December, with a view to a major plan from June 2020, into 2021.

50. Dear Jessica,
    I have been offered the opportunity to return to my retail job but anxious about doing so. This is not where my heart is but I feel I have wasted this year initiating anything else. I feel I am going backwards from accepting this situation in fear of change. I am losing myself and I feel I have nothing to offer to the world. Nothing is aligned with the universe anymore it feels and I don’t know why. I feel like leaving home/country but I don’t know where to go – is it the right time too go? Shall I go alone? Will I have to wait 12 years to start study again? I have been in the same place for many years and so feel I am on a downward spiral – would this be bad karma? Sorry for this message, I just can’t see no light. Take care, Kindest regards, Bea.

    1. Small steps help big steps later Bea. There is no bad karma here. You can easily take the retail job to ground yourself, give yourself a daily routine and begin some cash flow. You still have plenty of spare time to pursue your other interests and talents. It doesn’t matter if you are not there forever. And you have years – literally – to follow other part-time or full-time careers. Just for now, to come back to earth and feel connected, you may want to do something to help your Sixth House (mind, body, spirit, workload) and feel your feet on the ground. I am sure you’d like to leave your home and country, but you also have plenty of time to do that too. Think about reliable cash flow. Baby steps.

       1. Dear Jessica,
          It now seems my employer is to have offered the option to sign up to a incapacity pension. I’m not sure whether to accept this or to ask for a formal fit for work interview so I am able to return to my job for the Christmas period. The pension is due to be up for a review in Feb 2020. What would you suggest would be a favourable decision? I’m trying to interpret my chart but my mind can’t seem to think clearly.
          Thank you for you support and guidance, it is deeply appreciated indeed.
          Take care,
          kindest regards,
          Bea.

          1. Bea, the review would fit Mercury Retrograde – you always put ‘re’ in front of everything – so you could accept a pension during this time, when agreements go backwards and forwards – then go for a review next year and possibly ‘re’ return to work. This decision is yours not mine, though, so I strongly recommend you use your Astrology Oracle cards and the guidebook that comes with membership. Good luck Bea.

             1. Dear Jessica,
                Thank you so much for your guidance, I am deeply thankful. I had been drawn to the oracle and notice the card Uranus and 12th house appear. How do I read this? Do I turn to the natal chart as well? Take care, Bea

             2. Uranus in the Twelfth House (if you were asking about the future) predicts radical changes in your relationship with the Universe. This may be God, Buddha, or astrology. It really depends on what you believe. Uranus always brings a break with the past, and new freedom. I do not know the time-frame you were asking about, but if you were enquiring about 2020, you will find that there is a tremendous inner need to be liberated by – or liberated from – your old faith, or even your lack of faith. This card combination commonly turns up when people become Christians. It can also show up when people abandon astrology, funnily enough. I have also seen Uranus in the Twelfth House appear when people make extreme decisions about their rabbi, priest, pastor, psychic, psychologist. You’ll be set free. But it’s personal to you.

51. Hi Jessica,

    Thanks for all of your articles. 1983 was a crappy time for me, very unstable transition into college and my family (parents) were totally unreliable, it was not a good time. My spiritual beliefs became more important and more foundational when my family let me down. My life is in a very different place today. I have stelliums in both Sag and Gemini where my nodal axis lies.

    Anything you can tell us about north node in Gemini during this time period?

    1. College was Sagittarius and Gemini. God was Gemini. You still created good things for yourself, the people around you and your life, despite the hardship of 1983. You get payback after May 2020, into 2021, and 2022. Karmic settlement! A professor, student ,teacher or lecturer will be involved, though with a different subject this time.

52. Jessica

    I love these articles and find your horoscopes extremely accurate – dead on. My questions is this – sometime ago I read where one of the articles said Trump would be long gone by 2022 – what does that mean?

    1. He will be dead, in jail or have resigned and be facing charges. This is good news for the planet. He’s a climate emergency denier.

53. Dear Jessica,

    I have a big fear. In 1982 I was 19 years old when my fiancee died in a car accident, I was pregnant with our child and barely survived the accident myself. I kept the baby despite the doctors opinion that it was too big of a risk to have her after my injuries. It was the best decision of my life, but also it was the most difficult time too and for many years ahead. I read everywhere for ascendant Libra that we should think of 2020 as 1982. At the present time I am very happy and satisfied with my life, and also with my daughter’s life, but I can’t stop being afraid of next year with all the planetary turmoil – I will have Pluto and Saturn squaring my ascendant, progressed Mars conjunct my natal Sun and some other smaller factors. My career is on the upswing and I hope that what was tragic in the past in my personal life, somehow will not repeat, but all these aspects would mean some kind of a breakthrough for me or my daughter.
    Could you please take a peek at my chart and tell me what you see?
    Thank you very much in advance <3

    1. You and your daughter have past lives together and they may have been life-or-death more than once. You were 19 years old when you lost your fiancee, and experiencing your first North Node and South Node return. You must have been devastated to lose your fiancee in the car accident. Even though he will have stayed with you and his child in spirit to look after you, you still lost your future husband here, in the real world. Let’s be clear about the North Node and South Node return. It’s not a repeat of events. It’s repetition of spiritual debts and credits, which is quite different. You can see you have the North Node in Leo in the Fifth House. If you look up Leo and/or Fifth House on Search and in your guidebooks, you will see it is about pregnancy, children, teenagers and young people. That’s your daughter. You kept your baby even though doctors thought she endangered your life. She owes you spiritually. You will find you both take turns, for the rest of your own life, giving to each other. That’s essentially what this whole Node cycle is all about, for years into the future. Also – I would not read too much into the Ascendant. It’s just your image. Your photograph on Twitter. Your wardrobe. There is a lot of really confused and confusing astrology out there so please be careful about reading a stack of websites together. As for next year, again – it sounds as if you are reading a whole lot of different astrologers, which is never a good idea. I don’t use professions. Pluto and Saturn square your Ascendant is just pressure on you to change the way you look. That’s all. That could be because a job requires you to have your hair a certain way! It’s really that superficial. Or you may want to lose weight. I can see I’m going to have to write an article with examples of how the Nodes work…and how karma works. We owe, and are owed. The Nodes are about settlement, on a soul level.

       1. Thank you for your enlightening reply! And spiritually encouraging. You’re 100% right about the dynamics of my wonderful relationship with my daughter. And I keep my soul and eyes open for any way that I can to give back.
          And you are right about me reading too much different astrologers. I am relieved to read about your take on Pluto and Saturn squares to the Ascendant for next year. You gave me peace of mind, thank you again, Jessica!
          An article about the Nodes and karma will be great!

          1. What is your take on progressions? Do you consider natal planets in aspect with progressed, or aspects only between progressed planets?

             1. I don’t use progressions at all, actually, I use transits.

          2. Thank you.

54. Hi Jessica
    Thankyou for your wonderful blog I am an avid reader.
    1983 was a year that I did not achieve good A level grades and consequently I accepted the only offer of university that was available to me. I did not enjoy the course and did not settle and moved back home the next year.
    2000 to 2005 I began a business with my sisters that failed and I lost thousands of pounds so I see these years as failure.
    In the past two years I have been retraining as a silversmith in my spare time and have thought of trying to make a living from it but with my south node in sagittarius I am having second thoughts or could it be third time lucky?
    I appreciate any feedback.
    Jen

    1. Thank you for this compliment. The North Node in Gemini and South Node in Sagittarius (education, study, workshops, evening classes, academia, seminars) will return you to the karma of 1983, as you are ‘owed’ by the universe or the actual college/uni you went to. There is karma when things are incomplete or not rounded off. It would be unusual if the actual lecturers or university administration came back to you 19 years later to make amends, or the other students and tutors. It can happen, but the Node is usually not literal. It is symbolic. So, you felt limited by your options in education, did not enjoy the course and never finished your degree. That will be made whole when the Nodes go back into the Third House and Ninth House of your chart (you can look those houses up on Search if you are curious). You can and will succeed as a silversmith, or develop a second skill which is a natural branch of the first one – and in fact should be looking at foreign employers or foreign collaborators – at the very least foreign purchasers and clients.

55. Hi I have a few (related) questions as I am trying to understand how to interpret my chart. ILI could not find a place to post in comments under November monthly forecast! Please forgive me if I am posting in the wrong place.
    In November’s monthly forecast you ask if we had factors in Capricorn at 16°. I have
    Minerva 16° Aries and Bacchus 16° Virgo .
    When you point out that a certain degree is being triggered but we don’t have that same house for example – in this case Capricorn, what does it mean? Does it make any difference that I have 16° in Aries and Virgo and not Capricorn?

    Similarly you ask if we have Scorpio or Taurus at 3° factors? I only have 3° factor in Diana 03° Gemini. Again does it matter if we have different houses being triggered but in the same degree?

    You also ask if we have factors at 28° in Sagittarius? I actually have no Sagittarius in my chart but I do have the Sun 28 Taurus and Aesculapia 28° Aries.

    Last but not least you ask if we have factors in 4° Sagittarius. I have no sagittarius, but I do have Proserpina 04° Gemini. How do the factors that are being triggered in November affect me if the houses they are in are different than mine? Many many thanks!

    1. You are experiencing aspects, or patterns, that will show up, but in the monthly horoscope, space does not allow for me to list them all. If I listed all possible aspects, the November forecast would run into dozens of pages. If you are curious about the aspects to your Minerva, Bacchus, Diana, Sun, Aesculapia and Proserpina I understand – but you would need to look this up in the guidebooks that come with membership, or my most recent ebook, 2020 Astrology: Your Five-Year Horoscope Guide. Put it this way. If you have nothing at all at 16 Capricorn, then November is not going to change your career – which is what that pattern is all about.

56. Hi Jessica – interesting! I was born in 1979 and I have a strange feeling that a previous parenthood potential partner may be coming back into my life from the 2001-2003 time period back when we first met. What does my chart indicate for the next few years? I have in my chart neptun, panaceu and vulcano in sagitarius . Regards

    1. Without that person’s chart it is hard to say if this specific person comes back to you – or you come back to them – but as so many of my readers are psychic, you may be picking this up quite accurately for yourself. A parenthood-potential partner tends to come into view when we have Leo weather and Libra weather (through your Fifth House of pregnancy and adoption, step-parenting and blended families – and your Seventh House of marriage). We are seeing this next, in February, August, April, October 2020. Your Sagittarius factors are about travel, not love, and you will be travelling to a place you have known in other lifetimes, in the second half of 2020, or the year 2021. You were there before and it will seem very familiar and somehow ‘right’ to you.

57. Hi Jessica,

    I am curious on how this will affect me? I was born in 1984 (8/19) but do have Saggitarius in my 9th house, ascendant, mars, neptune, uranus and my south node.

    Have not had any luck in love in years (single mother) and my career has been feeling stagnant. Any insight on what maybe to expect, would be helpful.

    Thank you! 🙂

    1. You are a Sun Leo, born on 19th August, who will have a new career from 2020 and a new partner from 2021, if you want it. The partnership will be hard work but also introduce you to someone who can educate you (or you can get back together with a person who fits that description). The new career is down to Uranus in Taurus in your Tenth House of work. The new partnership is down to Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius in your Seventh House of duets, from Christmas 2020. If not love and sex in a duet – not everyone wants it – it will be a business and professional partnership.
