2023 Year Ahead Astrology Forecast

In episode 381 we present our year ahead astrology forecast for 2023, with astrologers Chris Brennan, Austin Coppock, Leisa Schaim, and Diana Rose Harper. At the beginning of the episode we give a big picture view of some of the major transits happening next year, such as Mars finishing its retrograde in Gemini, Saturn moving into Pisces, Pluto moving into Aquarius, a Venus retrograde in Leo, and eclipses moving from the Taurus-Scorpio axis to the Aries-Libra axis. Some of the themes we talked about were the emergence of AI (artificial intelligence) with Saturn finishing its transit through Aquarius and Pluto getting ready to start a 20 year transit through that sign, as well as the escape to the imaginal realm with Saturn entering Pisces and beginning a long sign-based conjunction with Neptune. In the second half of the show we go through a quarter by quarter and month by month breakdown of 2023, discussing in more detail some of the quicker astrological transits next year, such as the fact that the three main Mercury retrograde periods will all occur in earth signs. There are timestamps below for when we talk about different alignments and parts of the year. This episode is available in both audio and video versions below.

2023 Year Ahead Horoscopes for Every Sign

In episode 380 astrologer Chris Brennan presents a set of year ahead horoscopes and astrology forecasts for all twelve signs of the zodiac for the entire year of 2023. This is meant to take some of the general transits that we will talk about in our big year ahead forecast and personalize them, by discussing them within the context of each of the zodiac signs. I would recommend listening to the zodiac sign that matches your rising sign and Ascendant, although you can also listen to the your Sun sign, especially if you were born during the day, or your Moon sign, especially if you were born at night. These horoscopes were originally livestreamed on YouTube, and they contain a number of visuals, so I would recommend watching the video versions if you can, although the audio versions contain most of the information. Timestamps for the Audio Version Here are timestamps for where I talk about each sign in the audio version. Aries: 2:00 Taurus: 23:44 Gemini: 41:00 Cancer: 1:05:07 Leo: 1:26:53 Virgo: 1:51:52 Libra: 2:08:13 Scorpio: 2:26:57 Sagittarius: 2:45:19 Capricorn: 3:06:57 Aquarius: 3:24:35 Pisces: 3:41:49 Video Versions of the 2023 Horoscopes Here is a link to the playlist on YouTube that contains all of the horoscopes for 2023: 2023 Year Ahead Horoscopes & Astrology Forecast Or here are direct links to the video for each sign: Aries 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Taurus 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Gemini 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Cancer 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Leo 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Virgo 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Libra 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Scorpio 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Sagittarius 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Capricorn 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Aquarius 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Pisces 2023 Year Ahead Horoscope Transcript A full transcript of this episode is available: Episode 380 transcript Listen to the Audio Version of This Episode Listen to the audio version of this episode or download it as an MP3:

Intergenerational Healing Through Astrology

In episode 377 astrologer Aerin Fogel joins the podcast to discuss using astrology as a tool for healing intergenerational traumas. We dealt with some kind of heavy topics in this episode, since the focus was talking about healing trauma, but it ended up being an extremely fascinating and wide ranging discussion. Much of our focus was on the emerging field of epigenetics, and the notion that major traumas can be passed down through generations, and how this might have parallels with astrology through specific astrological signatures. We talked about Aerin's personal connection to this topic because she comes from a family of Holocaust survivors, and later talked about the history and some of the signatures associated with that, as well as with the field of epigenetic research in general. We also spent a lot of time talking about myths and how they connect to astrology, and contain deeper archetypal truths that can sometimes describe family dynamics and traumas, as well as how they can be helpful in the process of healing some of these traumas.

The Uranus Return of the United States

In episode 376 astrologer Nick Dagan Best joins the show to talk about the Uranus returns of the United states, discussing how the transit of Uranus in Gemini has worked out for the country in three distinct periods in American history, and what it may mean for the future. The planet Uranus spends about 7 years in each sign of the zodiac, and it takes about 84 years to make a complete cycle and return to where it started. Astrologers have long noted that Uranus was transiting through Gemini during three distinct periods in American history: the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and World War II. This correlation between important conflicts in the past is important today because Uranus is again getting ready to return to Gemini starting in 2025, and then transiting through that sign all the way through 2032. In this episode I sat down with Nick for a detailed conversation about those three previous periods in American history, in order to see just how close the previous correlations with Uranus transits have been, and also so that we could try to gain some insights about what may be coming up in the future. Nick wrote a book about this topic in 2013 titled Uranus USA, which was recently re-released as a PDF ebook: https://theastrologypodcast.com/uranususa/ For more about Nick visit his website: NickDaganBestAstrologer.com This episode is available in both audio and video versions below.
