Can you imagine for a moment that it is one year from now, January 2024?
How do you want to feel? Can you put yourself forward into the future and feel exactly what it is that you have achieved over the course of the year?
Wouldn’t you like to be able to say to yourself, I really did believe in me and it paid off?
Jumping into the future mentally and imagining you already have experienced what you want is a great practice to begin right now.
A huge part of successful manifesting relies upon your clarity of vision AND your ability to feel yourself already having what you desire.
Setting yourself up for the year ahead emotionally and mentally is the best way you can ensure your success.
I have never been a big believer in New Year’s Resolutions.
I prefer to concentrate on how I am working towards my dreams every single day, regardless of the date!
When you combine your positive energy, alignment, and focus, that is the perfect recipe to create abundance and all that you desire.
Of course, knowing when certain astrological patterns are occurring is important too, and can greatly enhance your efforts.
There are some big cosmic shifts coming in 2023.
Many of them will contribute to significant change and shifts for all of us on the planet.
In 2023 three planets will shift signs.
- Saturn enters Pisces.
- Pluto shifts from Capricorn to Aquarius.
- Jupiter shifts from Aries to Taurus.
These are all fairly monumental shifts that will certainly impact the overall energy of the year ahead.
The Four Eclipses of 2023
This year we have two super potent Solar Eclipses and two slightly less intense Lunar Eclipses.
- Aries Solar Eclipse on April 20th
- Scorpio Lunar Eclipse May 5th / 6th
- Libra Solar Eclipse October 14th
- Taurus Lunar Eclipse on October 28th / 29th
Numerology
In addition, the numerology of 2023 is the number 7.
The number 7 is a highly spiritual number. It’s related to the energy of intuition, introspection, seeking answers and spiritual wisdom.
Here are some specific astrological dates to note:
Mars goes Direct – January 12th
The red planet has been retrograded since the end of October 2022 but will station direct on January 12th.
Mars emerging from retrograde is great news for our energy levels, discipline, and motivation.
It’s the perfect time to start moving forward with work projects and creative goals.
Saturn Enters Pisces – March 7th
For the first time in close to 29 years, Saturn moves into the sign of Pisces.
This is big news. Pisces is a water sign, associated with intuition, creativity and compassion.
With grounded Saturn in Pisces, we could find it easier to place some of our more spiritual, and esoteric ideas in reality.
We may feel extra connected to our higher selves and experience deeper intuition.
Pluto in Aquarius – March 23rd
Pluto is the planet of death and rebirth.
As it moves slowly out of Capricorn and into Aquarius it signifies a shift in power.
Pluto in Aquarius is all about greater equality for all humanity.
On a world level it could potentially be related to financial institutions and governments.
On an individual level it may symbolize a personal rebirth.
A dismantling and shedding of the old, to welcome in a higher frequency.
Aries Solar Eclipse – April 20th / 21st
This will be a great eclipse for manifesting!
It’s also the first time we have had a Solar Eclipse in Aries since 2015.
It’s set to be an exciting time for creativity and abundance.
You will likely be filled with inspiration and energy to pursue your passions.
Jupiter Enters Taurus – May 15th
Jupiter moves from Aries to Taurus bringing a more grounded, slower energy.
Taurus is the sign most associated with pleasure and money, so any of your desires for more abundance could be brought into reality if you’ve been focusing your energy right.
Venus Retrograde in Leo – July 22nd
When Venus is in retrograde we usually spend time reflecting upon our relationships and finances.
Leo is the sign ruled by the Sun. It’s a very heart-centered, joyful sign.
When Venus is retrograde in Leo, we may feel drawn to exploring how we express ourselves and experience deeper heart-centered connections.
Overall 2023 is set to be an exciting year of many changes and positive shifts.
If you are feeling stable and grounded in who you are, you can look forward to aligning with your desires this year.
You might feel a stronger sense of self, reconnect with your deepest desires, and see through creative projects and entrepreneurial endeavors.
You could begin a brand new chapter in your life, saying goodbye to anything outdated and toxic in your experience.
Whatever 2023 may bring, make sure that you are stepping into the highest version of yourself right now by projecting into the future and truly seeing and feeling your success before it has happened.
Use these affirmations to help you get into that frequency now.
I am a money magnet.
I experience incredible health.

I give and receive boundless love and joy.
I am full up with gratitude and appreciation for my wonderful life.
