Aquarius (All):
Note This is where the summary of the year resides; more details are below!
The year 2022 and its astrological effects on the sign of Aquarius.
Your desire for security and comfort is hearty this year, dear Aquarius, and you’ll pursue these things with more confidence and verve. You feel that you deserve more or that you’re at a stage when you want to more thoroughly enjoy the fruits of your labor.
At the same time, you’re entirely open to making changes and improvements on the home front or in your personal life. In fact, the year ahead can find you connecting with family or “doing” home life differently, with an eye on innovation and progress.
Intellectual interests begin to take a primary role in your life in 2022. You have a stronger desire–and need–to develop and grow mentally as well as spiritually this year. Improving your skills will be a focus, and some of you will do so formally, benefiting greatly from it. There can be exciting new interests or worlds opening up through improved or new channels for communicating and transit.
You continue to struggle with tradition and progress–with clinging to the tried and true or embracing the new. The answer may be to find a balance, and that’s what you are working towards discovering.
Financial success comes through friendships, group associations, income from business, and fields having to do with technology or alternative approaches. For many, a greater flow of personal income is in your forecast, but do be aware that the flow can just as easily come in and go out if you’re not careful.

Key Events in 2022 for Aquarius:
Outer Planet Transits:
Pluto trine True North Node in February. This transit intensifies our passion to make a difference, a change, or connection. We can feel strongly connected to people or groups at this time.
For Aquarius, this period is particularly strong for boosting income or improving your reputation and general value. You can experience recognition and a sense of intention in your emotional or family life. Caring for family, plants, pets, and/or your home can be more fulfilling, and learning to be taken care of can be rewarding as well. You’re also learning to find more comfort and meaning in your inner world.
Jupiter sextile Uranus and semi-square Pluto in February. With these aspects, changes and innovations are exciting. We’re open to new energies, approaches, and attitudes. Fortunate events occur as a direct result of our willingness to entertain the unusual and to think outside of the box. We’re less tolerant of repetition and routine, and we’re resistant to obligations or limits to our self-expression. Good luck or money can happen unexpectedly, appearing in the nick of time.
For Aquarius, security is important and tradition, too, but it’s about thinking progressively
that can boost your security now, perhaps ironically. Be enthusiastic and open-minded now in order to see all of your possibilities and opportunities. There can be some excitement revolving around finances, possessions, home-related endeavors, or issues of self-worth. A windfall or significant gift can be in focus, or there’s a sudden urge to spend or invest money, a new money-making idea or project that seems to come out of nowhere, new insights into money and things. You might see money’s value as a tool used to achieve more freedom in your life.
Jupiter helps you to focus on the future rather than the mistakes or regrets of the past. It rules your solar eleventh house, and networking, making new alliances, focus on generating business income, and making future-oriented choices are all possible themes.
It can be a time of a significant memento or financial benefit from a friend, a wonderful personal possession, or a windfall related to a visionary or progressive approach. You might have more resources to invest in your home or property. You are pouring more heart, energy, and perhaps money into your comfort, safety, and domestic life.
Jupiter conjunct Neptune in April. With this fabulous alignment, idealistic and humanitarian goals or impulses surface. Themes now are making connections with others of a different background, a spirit of altruism and generosity, widening our minds through unusual or different experiences, expanded faith, and a feeling that anything is possible if we believe in it. We more easily make personal sacrifices for what we believe to be the better good.
Everyday, ordinary life doesn’t satisfy, as we hunger for a more idealistic life. This can certainly lead to disappointment or strong feelings of discontent and restlessness. We may need a reality check in order to keep our expectations realistic. However, it’s a period of greater compassion–when our guiding principle is to trust in people or the universe.
For Aquarius, you could often come up with moneymaking ideas, or you have more faith in your ability to make money, regardless of the current state of the economy. This attitude can certainly bring rewards to you, but you should also be cautious about becoming too starry-eyed about finances–keep it real and avoid jumping into moneymaking schemes without first considering the facts. Activities with friends or group associations seem to simply come to you without much effort on your part.
You more easily make personal sacrifices for what you believe to be the better good. You should probably exercise some caution with legal matters, finances, and worldly, practical affairs, in general, as the tendency to ignore critical details runs high. You’re seeking more idyllic conditions regarding money, comfort, and security.
Otherwise, this is a good period for bringing a fresh, positive, and confident attitude towards your self-worth and value or to your practical affairs, including work. You could be more enthusiastic or optimistic about earning a living. A money problem may clear up, or a major purchase or sale can figure strongly. It can be a time of a significant memento or financial benefit from a friend, a wonderful personal possession, or a windfall related to a visionary or progressive approach.
Jupiter sextile Pluto in early May. We’re discovering our ambitions and motivations, and it’s an enjoyable, productive experience. It’s a time when we want to improve, grow, and bring something to the next level. As we connect with our hidden talents or desires, we begin to embrace new directions or pursuits.
For Aquarius, this transit helps you see what you truly value, which can undoubtedly alter your whole approach to money and possessions. Regarding your money, talents, and valuables, you’re in the position to better manage or work towards reaching your goals. For some, this can be a time to discover old resources or ideas that benefit you in the present. Income may get a boost from imaginative undertakings, psychic or helping professions, or other work behind the scenes. Seek opportunities to turn around a difficult financial situation if this is a problem. You’re developing your talents and might find new ways to make money from hidden or current resources, perhaps for business development.
Income can improve through counseling, helping professions, behind-the-scenes work, home-related pursuits. You approach your earnings or belongings in a more positive way, bringing in different results. Turning a financial matter around can be a relief.
Uranus conjunct True North Node in July. With this transit, we attract people or lessons into our lives that encourage us to detach from traditions or conventions that are keeping us from growing. It’s a good time to make pivotal friendships or group connections. We’re learning to be more self-sufficient while concerning ourselves with bettering the world around us.
You are changing your definition of comfort, abundance, security, and pleasure, perhaps in ways that also benefit the group or the planet as a whole, dear Aquarius. You’re redefining what it means to be secure, comfortable, wealthy, or stable.
Other influences:
Venus is retrograde from December 19th. Venus is retrograde in the sign of Capricorn from December 19th, 2021, to January 29, 2022. This retrograde phase affects all of us, in general, mainly in the areas of love and finances. These matters are not straightforward during this period–it’s a time for reviewing our attitudes, needs, and affections rather than forging ahead boldly into new love relationships or financial projects.
Because this Venus retrograde cycle is not explicitly connected to romantic areas of your chart this time around, it’s likely to affect you a little less than it affects many others. Even so, romantic matters are on the complicated side for you, Aquarius, and you may be dealing with past relationships, love triangles, or sacrifices made for a lover. You should watch for secrets surfacing that prompt you to rethink current plans and possibly even alliances. This can be a time for reassessing your privacy needs and your attachment to past relationships.
The Sun aligns with Jupiter in Pisces and Venus aligns with Mars in Aquarius on March 5-7. It’s a wildly creative and optimistic time. We’re generous with our time and energy, and we can be quite reactive and affectionate, perhaps bolder than usual as we wish to do something special.
For Aquarius, this is a fabulous time for charm and attractiveness. You have more motivation or energy for personal plans, and you can experience a resurgence of vitality. Everyone seems to want you at this time! Your magnetism and appetite for pleasure heat up. You’re especially motivated to go after what you want. Look for inspiration if it doesn’t find you first, and enjoy the attention. It’s also an opportunity period for your finances, business, income, valuables, personal possessions.
Mars is retrograde from October 30, 2022, to January 12, 2023, in the sign of Gemini (pre-retrograde shadow begins September 3). We can feel stuck on past relationships or situations, finding it difficult to move ahead.
Slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations figure strongly now, particularly related to romance, recreation, and creative or heartfelt pursuits. There can be weighty issues and delays to manage. Lackluster areas of your life seem to be in the spotlight. Fortunately, you can use this time to get in touch with your current needs and desires.
Note that Mars is the ruler of your communications and transportation sector in your solar chart, and all Mars retrograde periods, including this one, seem to impact these areas.

The horoscope on this page, Aquarius Yearly, shows the trends and predictions for the year in detail. Because outer planet transits are lengthy, there are variations in the timing of outer planet transits for each of the three decans of Aquarius, and these are shown below the main, general forecast.
There are some interesting developments for you this year, dear Aquarius. Every year, we see challenges and opportunities in different areas. It’s my hope that by understanding these areas of potential disruption and ease that you can make the most of these trends as you seek the opportunities and manage the challenges.
Aquarians are progressive yet loyal. They are not afraid to break from tradition if it doesn’t serve a good purpose. However, there is a need to structure your life or return to basics in some manner with Saturn continuing in your sign for a transit that cumulatively lasts about three years. It started in 2020 and will last until March 2023.
In 2022, Saturn is again in your sign all year, and you’re getting more organized, self-disciplined, and on top of things. It’s a sometimes lonely transit as you learn to be more self-reliant. Fortunately, you have some support from Chiron, and from May to October, Jupiter as well.
The following chart shows the outer planets and other points in relation to your sign, revealing whether they are harmonizing with or challenging Aquarius:
Aquarius 2022
| Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec | ||
| Jupiter | |||||||||||||
| Saturn | |||||||||||||
| Uranus | |||||||||||||
| Neptune | |||||||||||||
| Pluto | |||||||||||||
| Chiron | |||||||||||||
| North Node | |||||||||||||
Grey is neutral (no direct relationship, but can be picky, nagging),
Pink is challenging (the planet is in a direct, challenging relationship with your sign),
and Green is easy and supportive (the planet or point is in a direct, harmonious relationship with your sign).
As is evident in the above chart, there is a little more harmonious than challenging energy from the outer planets, and a fair amount of neutral energy. This suggests a generally straightforward energy flow and may indicate a more harmonious or status quo year in most life departments.
Even so, the one challenging outer-planet influence is from your own (modern) ruler, Uranus. This transit can be somewhat destabilizing. It’s a period for reorienting yourself and answering a call to make some changes, even if they are not immediately welcome.
The North Node (not a planet) is challenging you, and it helps you push your boundaries at home or in your personal life to improve yourself and your life.

Overview: Harmony and Challenge of Outer Planets:
Uranus is the only outer planet that’s actively challenging you in 2022, as was the case last year. Interestingly, Uranus is one of your ruling planets. This does point to a need to make changes to your home or domestic world and living conditions or arrangements, which can be occasionally disruptive, but ultimately liberating.
With a continuing focus on personality development and structuring your life this year (brought to you by Saturn), surprises on the homefront can sometimes challenge you, but you’re on the road to major improvements.
Pluto will remain in the background of your solar chart for a while longer, suggesting there is further work to do with getting closure in your life, but for the most part, 2022 is a year in which you’re getting established.
Figuring strongly can be special attention to comfort, money, and security, and for half the year, exciting interests and developments with communications, connecting, and transportation. Go big in these areas, but know your limits!
