Astrological Insights for January 2023
Overview
The energy of the retrograde Mars
in sidereal Taurus will continue to
dominate the January news headlines
as reflected in violence and unrest
occurring not just only in the United
States but also in other parts of world,
notably in Ukraine, Russia, China, and
Iran.
While Mars is retrograde, Mercury
becomes retrograde towards the
end of December and remains
retrograde till January 19. Typically,
retrograde Mercury means anxieties,
communication breakdowns,
unexpected delays, frustrations, missing
deadlines, unforeseen obstacles, and
disappointment in daily chores. The
details on both retrograde Mars and
Mercury are provided below.
One of the most important planetary
events of 2023 is going to occur around
mid-January thru mid-February of

2023 when Neptune will be reentering
in sidereal Pisces (Feb 15) and
Saturn in sidereal Aquarius (Jan 17)
simultaneously. The manifestation of
the preview of this early 2023 event has
been slowly emerging as it seems to be
clearly reflected in the current protests
and unrest in authoritarian regimes
like China (recent protest in Shanghai),
Russia (the new military recruiters and
soldiers fleeing Russia) and Iran (niece of
Iran’s supreme leader speaks out against
his “murderous and child-killing regime”
as protest continues). As a result, it’s
very likely that the friction between the
Unites States and Russia, as well as that
between the United States and China,
and United States and Iran will be
becoming more severe.
Finally, the Saturn’s reentry in the sidereal
Aquarius (Jan 17) may signal the beginning
of the end of Covid-19 era. Also, Covid-19
may be on its way out, albeit slowly by mid-
2023. More on this is covered in the 2023
annual predictions and below.
