2022’s Biggest Opportunities and Challenges: Your Year Ahead Horoscopes

Lori Randall Stradtman, author of "Online Reputation Management for Dummies," is also a practical mystic astrologer who's given over 10,000 readings. She's offered Rumble readers an astrological look at what 2022 has in store.

For Sun and Rising Signs

Aries: 

Your biggest opportunity for 2022: You, dear Aries, are known for your courage. Even so, there may be a bit of you that is holding back from really daring to dream BIG, for fear of disappointment. No matter, because this year is a beautiful year for you to dare to dream something big and deeply meaningful, especially in the first half of this year. 

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Remember to work with others (instead of getting adversarial) and to slow down enough to listen to your deepest wisdom about people and situations before moving forward with them.

Taurus: 

Your biggest opportunity for 2022: You, sweet Taurus, are known for having solid values. This year is a year when you can really make a difference and derive a huge sense of satisfaction from helping those whom society has forgotten. Seek a community that resonates deeply with you and explore where you can lend your excellent ability to take something with potential and polish it into excellence. 

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Dig deep into your deepest feelings about trust, avoidance, and true intimacy, both with yourself and in relationships. 

 

Gemini: 

Your biggest opportunity for 2022: Clever, insatiably curious Gemini, you will have no trouble exploring ways to include metaphysics/spirituality of some kind or another into your work in ways that add to the experience for all. You might even astonish yourself and others with just how well the experiment goes! Have fun with that charm you possess - just keep it ethical and everybody will love you for it!

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Slow down and use your excellent critical thinking skills before investing your time, money, or energy into a project or person that sounds absolutely dreamy…

 

Cancer:

Your biggest opportunity for 2022: Caring, nurturing, Cancer, whom everybody loves… maybe a bit too much sometimes. You’ve probably had a solid year or more of taking on other’s problems and emotional turmoil to the point of burnout, possibly. Your cosmic mandate right now is to love yourself in the form of taking the time, energy, mental space, financial space, to mother yourself in the most meaningful ways possible. Pedicures are fun, but really listening deeply to yourself, allowing your needs to rise to the surface and gently, patiently nurturing them as only you know how to do… that’s your huge opportunity this year.

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Put yourself first, before relationships. I dare you. ;)

 

Leo:

Your biggest opportunity for 2022: Lovely Leo, your presence lights up any room and attracts attention. This year, you will have unprecedented opportunities to ramp up your creative passions. Tap into what makes you feel deeply alive - and give yourself full permission take the time, energy, and financial investments necessary to indulge your magnetic, child-like creativity. 

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Avoid those who tend to drag you down. Heaviness is your kryptonite. You know how to gently keep moving.

 

Virgo:

Your biggest opportunity for 2022: Practically perfect Virgo, you amaze everybody but yourself sometimes, and forget to take time to smell those incredibly fragrant roses while they are in bloom. This year is the perfect year to really connect with the lighter, brighter (dare I say it?) FUN side of life!

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Schedule and plan (you’re good at that) some earthly pleasures that are simply fun, romantic, or simply creative. Commit to your fun time and guard it jealously.

 

Libra:

Your biggest opportunity for 2022: Lovely, diplomatic Libra, what a relief to be at the end of a long-term responsibility that you’ve probably been feeling keenly over the last couple years. Getting this time back to yourself will feel fabulous, especially if you decide on a clear course of action and follow through with it. Don’t worry about how your decision will land with others. If they’re keepers, they’ll understand that you have to love yourself first before you can really love anybody else long term. 

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Embrace a new way of relating to your body, specifically in balanced eating and fluid, balanced movement. Yoga would be fantastic. 

 

Scorpio:

You biggest opportunity for 2022: Determination is your middle name, Scorpio, and we love you for it! This year presents you with a real opportunity to dive deeply into what you want, in terms of trust and intimacy. What do you really want and how can you experience it while holding on to your treasured autonomy? 

 Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Learning to meditate, even something as simple as giving yourself 10 minutes at a time to simply feel how you’re feeling in the moment without having to lift a finger to change anything. Feel into the beauty of nature and tune in. 

 

Sagittarius:

Your biggest opportunity of 2022: Sagittarius, enthusiastic adventuring is your middle name! The only problem is that you can tend to be overly optimistic, taking on several projects at a time and maybe even dropping the ball because, well, you’re human, after all.

 Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Tap into your deepest wisdom. Be sensitive to those Divine nudges that show that area that is seeking you. Then focus to the point of excluding all of the good, until you get to that which calls to you unmistakably. Then run with it!

 

Capricorn:

Your biggest opportunity of 2022: Practical Capricorn, you’re already proficient at making money. You might have had an “interesting” time with your investments over the past year or two and are getting a welcome opportunity to think outside the box on how to manage your money, because the established ways are bending. How can you adapt or even innovate in a grounded, practical, stable way?  

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Deepen your ability to make that money work for you in the form of Investing. This Spring will be a fantastic time for you to immerse yourself in a fresh course of study that resonates with you on a deep level. 

 

Aquarius:

Your biggest opportunity of 2022: Inventive, independent Aquarius, odds are you’ve been craving your independence (involving a move,) or at least a mind-expanding trip abroad over the couple years. This year promises more expansive opportunities for you, as you meet with them and simply say “yes” to that which feels genuinely GOOD. 

 Your challenge, should you choose to accept it: Venture out, move if you want to, but do so on your own terms. Tap into your deepest wisdom, get an inspiring reading, do that which lights up your heart and keep moving with it.

 

Pisces:

Your biggest opportunity of 2022: Pisces, you’re empathic and often downright psychic. Because of this, you might take longer to bounce back from major disappointments because you feel so deeply. Look back to 2010, odds are you closed off a precious place in your heart, saying “never again, that hurts too bad.” Maybe it was a romance, maybe it was an artistic dream.

Your big, beautiful opportunity this year is to tenderly, wisely, joyously… start opening up again in fresh ways. You can trust your deepest self. You really can. And we’re here for it.
