2022 trend predictions based on astrology

in: flip phones out: grad school

Happy new year! For the past few months I’ve been looking into the major transits of 2022, especially the outer planets and eclipses. Based on that data, I present: a trend forecast.

I didn’t want to include an “out” portion, since Jupiter is in Pisces and everything is everything. I noticed these “in and out” lists started being shared with Jupiter at the last degrees in Aquarius which, as a sign is much more elitist. Once Jupiter entered Pisces everyone was like “in and out lists? out.” So in the spirit of Jupiter in Pisces, my trend predictions are based on astrology rather than the Aquarius “this is what’s cool” agenda. It’s hard to pass judgement because it kind of is what it is.

If you want to take a moment to review 2021 before sliding into 2022, check out my 2021 horoscope. I have no idea why the website says they’re by S*san M*ller.

I wrote some annual horoscopes for a TV pilot for 2022, which I will share as soon as I get a link. For now, let’s get a general feel for what’s coming up.

1. I personally am not saying this is IN it’s just part of the trend forecasting… it’s not a preference but an observation. I personally prefer analog, archival media.
