New Delhi: Following the Gregorian calendar, the world celebrates New Year on January 1 annually. However, as per the Hindu calendar, the New Year begins on Pratipada of Shukla Paksha of Chaitra. This year it is falling on April 2 - therefore bringing in celebrations, happiness and prosperity in abundance for all. 

Accordingly, the horoscope predictions for all 12 zodiac signs have been mentioned below. The yearly predictions as per the Hindu New Year 2022 calendar have been made by renowned astrologer Sundeep Kocher. 

Astrologically speaking, 2022 will be the start of a new beginning. Jupiter has already transited and is now in the 11th House of Aquarius from Kaal Purusha. Many may have felt or seen some changes in the global economy as Jupiter has moved from debilitated Capricorn this year. 

By April 2022, Jupiter will transit to Pisces, its own house, and the house where Jupiter is at peace and in a philosophical and spiritual state of mind. We will see many countries overcome the challenges posed by the pandemic. The nations will start focusing on curing rather than battling COVID. The well-being of the people will become the new focus for nations. Saturn will transit from its house Capricorn to one more of its own house, Aquarius, which is the 11th house from Kaal Purusha. 

It is the house of gains, where Saturn is at its best when one's work demonstrates transformation and charity. Saturn will then shower immense benefits to those who are highly charitable and focus on engaging in social services. All the vigorous efforts and challenges that the nations and people have gone through should see results during this time. 

So, the year starts with Saturn still in its own house Capricorn, where Karma and arduous work will still be emphasized. The transition of gains and development will be seen gradually as the year progresses and from April, people will see the outcome. 

Additionally, Rahu is in Taurus, in exaltation in the second house of family and wealth from Kaal Purusha. From April 2022, Rahu will transit to Aries. The illusionary planet’s impact will be normalized, and it will be like pre- COVID times.

Transit Saturn aspecting Rahu from Aquarius from 3rd and Ketu from 10th will ensure that the Rahu transit will be beneficial for the next year.

Saturn will transit to Aquarius from April and the impact of the Sade Sati of Saturn will be felt on Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. People born of Moon Sign Pisces, may not feel the effect due to the presence of Jupiter in its own house and Saturn in its own house.

Aries

Continue focusing on your work. Saturn is in the 10th house, the house of Karma, and in its own sign. The results should be seen with the support of Jupiter currently positioned in the 11th house. In April, Saturn will transit to the 11th house, where your gains are still in continuum for the efforts you have been putting over the past year.

However, with the transit of Jupiter in its own house Pisces, one’s focus should be towards charity, meditation, and inner development, effectively bringing both economic and spiritual gains throughout the year. Rahu will transit to the house of Aries from April. This transit may bring an interesting change in one’s mindset. It will make you focus more intensively and push you to do or accept risky challenges. Smart and risk-averse Arian should cash out or monetize all the challenging work done over past years and consolidate their savings.

Those who are single can expect to find their partner during the second half of the year. Expect intensity in your relationship right from day one. It is good to seek advice but, in all sense, you will be head over heels for your partner. 

Taurus

From April, opportunities in earth sciences and mining may be a better bet. For people who are already in a relationship, or those looking for romance, this is the year where you need to understand your partner’s mindset.

While romance may not be an area of focus for many Geminis this year, for those who are in a relationship, marriage is on the cards after May and will be a suitable time to settle with your partner.

The new year is full of wonderful possibilities for Cancerians to chart a new course of their life, be it career or love life.
