ARIES:

If you leave your personal experiences and powerful life changing events cocooned and beyond the knowledge and understanding of others they will forever be devoid of healing and helping yourself as well as others. If you choose to stay closed and guarded you will live an unrealized and unspoken life. Your pain, your past and your personal stories will stay hidden like a talent for music or art that is stifled and you then will never know the effect your gift can have on others. Sharing brings about confidence, acceptance and perception to those that give even of their pain.

You have the power to demonstrate your dreams by committing yourself unconditionally and to manifest those dreams that serve humanity as well as your personal aims and this will assist you in accepting those opportunities that are currently available. You can gain a sense of achievement through consistent, daily applications of your spiritual ideals, no matter how seemingly insignificant. This will give you the knowledge that you have contributed to the manifestation of society’s ideals in a realistic way.

TAURUS:

Though this is a wonderful time of expansion for you with both Venus and Jupiter in Taurus it also brings about certain feelings of emotional tensions during this period of change. Your vision is changing and the old cycle of identity is dissolving and the new is coming into manifestation. This hopefully will give you enough confidence to release old forms of expression that are not working in your life now.

Do not hastily and on a whim enter into any business deals or undertakings that seems great on the outside but when looked at closely is prone to causing you problems and difficulties. It is advisable to look at any business venture from a sound mental viewpoint and have things in black and white. This may sound so very opposite to your general trusting and accepting nature, but you know your tendency to allow your trust to lead you into difficult ventures. A hasty and wrong step could cost you dearly and you need to have a solid grounding for any venture to make it work for you.

GEMINI:

For the moment it seems as if it is your destiny to suffer through your work but make sure you do not get caught up in victim mode. You seldom stick around in a job that’s mundane or repetitive as you are keen to be involved with new projects and you thrive in a competitive environment which can cause you to have difficulty in finishing what you start and then you tend to leave the finer details for others to complete. Because you’re independent by nature you could be uneasy taking instructions or cooperating with others and some people might find you brash at times but you’re happiest when you have a mission to accomplish. As you are very aware of your boundaries you need a demarcated working space. It should be easy to access and without clutter especially if you’re on the run and very busy.

A control issue could give you sleepless nights. Stay objective and try not to let it get to you. Taking things personally won’t help and the same applies to relationship dynamics.

CANCER:

Whether it is based on science or belief, healing is a self generated state. Though miraculous cures can manifest in either paradigm, it takes a profound acceptance of your self and a deep willingness to process your personal issues in order to allow true healing to occur. However you need to be aware of the inclination towards docility, inertia and sluggishness. These are born of fear and what you cannot handle. When you fall into this state it is only a matter of time before you attract someone or something that will make such immobility uncomfortable and compromising. It is then that you have to make a change or let something go.

You need to discover your truest, deepest and highest values, which is symbolized by knowing what you truly consider valuable and you will no longer be chained to people to do things that have lesser value to you. The greatest indication of value is beauty which cannot be owned only appreciated.

LEO:

Although your cultural background was established and solid in its way and it is always something you will fall back upon but it can keep you chained to limitations and reassured traditions. So the radical and individual streak in your personality will force you to free yourself from the negative tradition that is part of your background.

This is a time when that what is hidden or subliminal will be brought to the surface in order to be released from the old shell and transformed into a new source of consciously-usable power. This will affect how you feel about yourself and how comfortable you are both within yourself and in your current living situation. You need to transform the quality of your emotional life through the adherence to some belief or transcendental truth, which has the effect of liberating your Self from a morass of confusing emotions. Possibly at times this re-orientation will require long periods of loneliness and abstention from social interaction.

VIRGO:

You have the right to value your things and choices but you need to be clear and accepting of this and stand for your own truth and choice. Initially you may be illusive and undefined about your things and portray this attitude out into the world but this brings confusion as others may think that you are sharing and unconcerned about your belongings, whereas you are more inclined to be orderly and particular about your possessions.

In a way life is quite a see-saw for you between your ‘good’ and comfortable self as opposed to the person that needs to seek and speak her truth. You need to find who you are in order to express yourself. This will be a time for you to express your higher potential and you will feel yourself infused with energy and enthusiasm for new creative projects. Go through the open door of opportunity to see where and how you can expand.

LIBRA:

It is not always easy for you to accept the restrictions that are placed on you through the legal process but in the long run this is what you are also learning about.

It seems as if career wise you could be going through some changes – possibly even just your own attitude and way you are addressing these issues in your life is going through change. In any harmonious picture you will find at least one discord that is the key to the balance. If yours is the voice of dissent to speak out against those things in society that you are not in agreement upon, then this is because of your own unique make-up which although it is not always what makes you popular it is what makes you feel truthful. It is also through your creative pursuits that you will express yourself out into the world, but the crux of these situations is the discipline and responsibility that you have to shoulder in order to fulfill your destiny. I see it is not always easy for you to accept the restrictions that are placed on you through the legal process but in the long run this is what you are also learning about.

SCORPIO:

It is time to move your boundaries and restrictions as well as the beliefs that you have held fast too. It is necessary to break down the walls and allow your own individual person to step forward and change your old belief structures because that is what is keeping you in this loop of never having what you want and need. Start constructing your future reality as if you have a loaded bank account. Money is merely a means of exchange -- energy exchange -- see what you can manifest in your life with and without money. Life is initially seen by you as a process to be observed coolly and impartially which can lead to either a strong awareness of how society and life functions as a whole or an inability to become involved or a personal level. It is also a great cover up for your very intense and strong feeling nature and the fear of becoming too involved with other’s emotional baggage. Look further a field and don’t keep repeating the same pattern over and over again as you extend your horizons.

SAGITTARIUS:

You could now be inclined to stir people up one way or another but some kind of philosophical or enterprising end has to be in sight so that there is an intelligent and appealing direction to justify your arousing nature. You are often the spirit of enjoyment as you excel at gathering people together for any reason be it as teacher, preacher or reveler.

They will make the vital practical contribution that you can easily overlook. Life is always full of possibilities, extraordinary experiences and new things to discover. With such an outgoing and adventurous outlook it is obviously an asset providing it eventually becomes more than just an outlook. There is the danger of promising your self and others the world and delivering practically nothing. You are liable to attract people that will provide you with the facts and figures in order to complement your adventurous spirit but this does not mean you do not have to do your own home work and expand to incorporate your full potential.

 

CAPRICORN:

Mercury turns retrograde on the 12th of March and you need to be objective of life’s adversities, or you will feel overcome by them and succumb to deep depression and self-perpetuating pessimism.

Everyone is made up of many particles and parts and each planet dictates certain aspects of one’s multi-faceted nature. We all have inherited a traditional set of beliefs and values that serve us well in the ordinary daily sense but when change, even in the form of opportunity, comes your way, you get held back by what looks like ‘normality’. So although you have a reliable way of progressing in life you occasionally have to put aside one set of plans or beliefs and look for another that will serve and guide you appropriately for the next chapter in your life. You tend to not believe in anything that cannot be proved and therefore you settle for whatever the system says is so and blindly mould yourself to fit. Unless you drop your inclination to subscribe to the letter of the law rather than the spirit of it your sense of joy will be as meager as your ethics are narrow and confining, reliable though they may be.

AQUARIUS:

There is an inclination to surrender to others ideas and ways to avoid conflict, but you need to assert your own boundaries. Harmony will be important to you and it is natural to feel a sense of duty to your family or community. The lesson is to find a balance between the expression of your own creative energies and time given to family or community affairs. You will feel burdened and resentful if you do not create these balances and you have to make choices along these lines.

You need to structure your personal and collective resources for which you are responsible so that you may be in service to the community, but you need and should create greater freedom of personal expression because you have special goals to achieve and will not manage to do so if you are limited in any way. Pinpoint your objectives and endeavor to stay with them, but avoid treading on others toes as diplomacy is necessary.

PISCES:

Your emotions carry memories and remembrances as a natural process. Water speaks of emotional flow, movement and sustaining energies. These are keywords identifying the particular aspects of your inner nature. It is the source of all growth and the most sacred of natural forces. It is both a giver of life as well as one that could take life away, depending on whether it came as a gentle shower or a devastating flood.

Being born under the sign of Pisces now with Neptune in its own sign, puts you in touch with the dreamtime and the necessity in your life to give space and time to dreaming. It is through your dreams, the wakening and sleeping ones, that you access the depth of your inner being and many things are revealed to you during this time, hence the essential nature of dreaming to you. It is also necessary for you to have this space during which you can ponder and consider issues that require decisions – a time to contemplate things from all sides before you rush in with any fiery energy.

MOON PHASES:

NEW MOON : 23RD JANUARY

WAXING HALF MOON: 31ST JANUARY

FULL MOON: 7TH FEBRUARY

WANING HALF MOON: 14TH FEBRUARY

PLANETARY ASPECTS:

22ND JANUARY -- SUN SQUARE JUPITER

24TH JANUARY -- MARS TURNS RETROGRADE

28TH JANAURY -- MERCURY MOVES INTO AQUARIUS

1ST FEBRUARY -- VENUS OPPOSES MARS

4TH FEBRUARY -- NEPTUNE MOVES INTO PISCES **

7TH FEBRUARY -- SATURN TURNS RETROGRADE

8TH FEBRUARY -- VENUS MOVES INTO ARIES

10TH FEBRUARY -- VENUS CONJUNCTS URANUS

14TH FEBRUARY -- MERCURY MOVES INTO PISCES – CONJUNCTS NEPTUNE

ARIES:

When Mars turns retrograde the anger issues are prone to be inner directed and not easily dealt with. This is not ideal and is inclined to create demonstrations in another way and particularly as it is in Virgo, through ill health and physical discomfort. Some physical expression can and will help for this. Neptune moving into Pisces will have some major manifestations of water issues. The emotions will also tend to overflow and it is best expressed through tears. Illusions can change and come tumbling down and you have to take responsibility for your own addictions as you learn to direct your energy towards personal and global issues.

Each negative thought creates a negative response and these responses are an ongoing ripple in the vase lake of consciousness.

When the planets Venus and Uranus conjunct in Aries you will feel inspired to break free from the fetters of authority and find your own creative outlet. Freedom is vital and you need to explore what this means to you.

TAURUS:

To heal the wounds, and to restore the values that are intrinsically human you need the connection with your ancestors and spirits that will emphasize your correlation to family and community. This might appear to be simple; however, the chaos of the current system creates a lot of obstacles. The power of your humanness needs to confront these obstacles so that your true self can be honored, respected and uplifted once again. Then a deep process of individuation leads you naturally to see yourself as and organic part of a human community instead of just a private person. There is no ‘one right way’ to do this work. One size does not fit all. Everybody is different. The response to each situation will be different for you and each one. Rediscovering the beauty, compassionate nature and innate power of your self

is part of your journey. Possibly you have come to mistrust the inherent goodness of human beings and even yourself, but now with Neptune in Pisces there will be a strong focus on unconditional love for yourself firstly and for others too.

GEMINI:

Your attempts to assert yourself and get things your own way get diffused through the emotions and your need to do things around the home. This puts a damper on your social life.

Sustaining community and global consciousness is essential for all of us at this time and this does necessarily involve a healing process in which you can step out of the cycles of pain, mistrust and violence that run through human history, and take responsibility for initiating new patterns. Now you need consciously to reinvent cooperative and harmonious ways of living together with others. For those raised within the hyper-individualized paradigm, or in settings where people come from diverse or even warring factions, learning the subtleties of constructive and mutually beneficial interaction may take a major effort. However this is not impossible but as with any physical or emotional condition, we are once again trying to treat the effect, without finding the cause of the problem. This is a paradigm that breeds violence, instead of peace. Your choices are what makes your world peaceful or a warring place.

CANCER:

The Victim, the Rescuer and the Accuser; creating a spiral effect, making us the Victim over and over again; quite a difficult cycle to break with your will. The reason for this is that the will resides in the conscious mind, while the change and correcting of perceptions have to happen in the subconscious mind. The only problem is that it is not easy for the average person to get into his own subconscious mind! The critical faculty is that part of your mind that tells you that something is hot or cold; the earth is round or flat, thus giving you feedback of what you already experienced before, so that you can weigh it up and work out a comparison to make a decision. You are consciously unaware of this process going on all the time, but only experience the emotional and physiological response to what happened previously. These perceptions are not necessarily true, but carry huge emotions, which do not mature as you mature in life. The fear, hate, anger, abandonment, shock, disappointment, fatigue and other traumatic emotions are written into cell-memory. When re-living the traumatic experience, there is usually an overwhelming outpouring of emotions called catharsis and with Neptune in Pisces you can anticipate healing coming through the dissolution of the emotional baggage.

LEO:

You will be presented with challenges in your personal life to put you in touch with your personal contribution towards changes for a healthier, more environmental friendly use and attitude towards the earth and her inhabitants. The key to self-regeneration is through being absolutely honest and to excavate the layers of superfluous and unnecessary issues until you find your true self in the process. You may be required to have an enforced reality check if you are caught up in illusions or wishing and hoping for things to be different. If you are living in fantasy and pretence you will probably be jolted back to the harshness of reality, which could manifest through ill health. Your actions catch up with you at certain times and if you’ve been abusing your body you will need to pay attention and take better care of it. Don’t look to compromise or evade your responsibilities or gloat over other’s misfortune as the wheels of Karma are still in the spin and you never know when it hits your number. Life is a gamble and can deal you any cards and it depends on you how to rise to the challenges that are presented to you.

VIRGO:

With Mars gone retrograde in Virgo you are predisposed to racing around as if there is some time limit set upon you and maybe there is but you are the one to pace yourself and to recognize your limits in order to keep cool and not burnt out. So somewhere along the line you need to cultivate a steadier emotional rhythm. Recognizing and going with the ebb-and-flow of your own patterns in life are absolutely central to governing your emotions rather than letting them govern you. Alienation and emotional discomfort will result in your insistence on being right and your own growth will stagnate. Be magnanimous and stretch your learning experience into viewing things from all viewpoints. You need to flow through life without creating such friction and disturbance for it is your resistance to change that places demands on you, which in turn causes emotional and physical distress. You are inclined to have a good memory of both favours granted and wounds inflicted. Learning to forgive and forget is necessary in order to forestall spells of deep depression.

LIBRA:

Like a diamond with many facets you will find that truth has many different interpretations and not only your viewpoint. Allow for others to also have their own interpretation of things. Move forward in life and stretch your mind to make space for some of the alternative ideas coming into your consciousness with the Venus and Uranus conjunction in Aries. Open up to communicating and sharing and although you may feel compelled to express your truth and opinion, restricting elements will force you to keep your temper in check. If you have boundless energy you can rather channel it into a creative effort and get things done rather than looking for a sparring partner and wasting your time on senseless arguing. If you could glimpse the vastness of the possibilities available to you, you would shift your way of thinking, to include what you have always relegated to the attic of your subconscious and therefore not paid attention to. It’s a wonderful time to pay attention to your dreams and focus your subtler psychic powers to bring about the fulfillment of your life destiny.

SCORPIO:

Although all the signs are there and your intuition is giving you the same message you will initially try to repeat and recreate old habit patterns that worked in the past but are not going to work now. On the surface it may appear as if things are just going to go smoothly, but if you give yourself time to reflect beforehand you will see the obvious and address the necessary changes. The tendency to procrastinate with Mars retrograding in Virgo is there but it is better to take responsibility for what your choices are and get going. You need to be aware of your pioneering streak for in this way you can enjoy life more and can avoid being pushed around by others and you need the freedom to act. You should not be afraid to be forceful when necessary and at all costs you should avoid negative emotions like resentment, regret and self-pity for they deny you what is essentially your true nature – straightforwardness.

Knowing what you want and how you can achieve this is paramount to your own satisfaction and growth as you will have to address the residue of hidden issues and unfinished business. It is a growth period and you have to look deep into your self and be ruthlessly honest regarding your own personal feelings.

SAGITTARIUS:

You probably have a ready wit and lively imagination and you respond to the world with diverse but definite concepts. However in your relationships you tend to reduce vague emotions to specifics in order to solve them but at times being intellectual and detached from your feelings has a long-term impact on your feelings and suddenly there are no words that can describe what you feel. Initially relationships will have the uncomplicated tendency of innocence but due to your tendency to expect others also to be generous, direct and guileless you are prone to being disappointed. Emotions are to be felt and sometimes they hurt and sometimes they give you pleasure and joy but they will always act as teacher in your life. However in true Sagittarius fashion you are able to pick yourself up quickly yet you will find if you don’t look at the injuries incurred you will suddenly be confronted with unexpected anger issues. These anger issues come from a backlog of unmet needs and unresolved fears from your past.

 

CAPRICORN:

There may be feelings of conflict when you are faced with difficult situations and the urge to accept them and to move forward may be held back somewhat by a certain amount of inhibition. However, your ability to tell others succinctly about your needs and problems may convey your message and have an impact on them that possibly is not the desired result. Revenge may seem sweet for the moment but the lasting effects will be with you for a long time and you have to live with the choices you make. Diplomacy and consideration can go a long way in softening blows to others egos. If negative feelings can be overcome and caution is allowed to take the place of any lack of self-confidence, you will achieve a great deal that is constructive and helpful. You may feel subjected to rapid and sometimes constant changing emotions and desires. However these continual emotional responses could be a mechanism for not facing emotional needs that need extra work and attention.

AQUARIUS:

You are not as confident as you used to be, under-estimating your abilities and probably feeling life should be approached with a more clinical approach. Your serious attitude towards life, discriminatingly expressed, is likely to bring about a tendency to worry and a possibility of pessimism at times. Although this is a necessary steadying influence you also need to express the more lighthearted side of your nature to be in balance. Humanitarian issues will be strongly highlighted and rebuilding human communities is an endeavour whose immense challenges should not be underestimated and you will start realizing your duty and liability towards creating social structures that bring about a safer environment. It is each one’s individual choice to either be part of the problem or part of the solution. No paradigm is ever able to imagine the next one. It’s almost impossible for one paradigm to imagine that there will even be a next one.

PISCES:

With Neptune in Pisces the trickster is at play and can upset the applecart by scattering all your well devised plans to the wind. Having an angry outburst may relieve you from inner tensions but avoid dumping your angers in somebody else’s lap. Face your fears and take responsibility for your own emotions. Avoid office politics and getting involved with other’s dramas. If you are out of balance and find you are always giving and not receiving then you are prone to feeling like a martyr and the ‘poor me’ syndrome clouds your view so that instead of having half a full cup you find you have half an empty cup. If you diminish yourself with self-pity then you are prone to attracting others negative energy towards you and becoming over-burdened with others emotional issues. Empower yourself with the realization of your own worthiness as sometimes what feels like restrictions are in fact re-directions on your path of finding your multiple talents. Your world gets constructed through your belief systems, which are not always informed, but more like comfortable, repetitive and habitual patterns of behaviour. Transformation comes from letting go and making a gap while shifting your fixed viewpoints

SUMMER SOLSTICE – 22ND DECEMBER -- SUN SQUARE URANUS IN ARIES

MOON PHASES :

NEW MOON : 24TH DECEMBER

WAXING HALF MOON: 1ST JANUARY

FULL MOON: 9TH JANUARY

WANING NEW MOON: 16TH JANUARY

 

PLANETARY ASPECTS:

29TH DECEMBER -- SUN CONJUNCTS PLUTO IN CAPRICORN

8TH JANUARY – MERCURY MOVES INTO CAPRICORN

13TH JANUARY -- VENUS CONJUNCTS NEPTUNE IN AQUARIUS

14TH JANUARY -- VENUS MOVES INTO PISCES

19TH JANUARY -- SUN SQUARES SATURN IN LIBRA

ARIES:

Needless to say this is a very intense and challenging time with the solstice coinciding with the Sun and Uranus square. The sense of duty and responsibilities and what you have to do as oppose to what you want to do is creating choices that are difficult to make. Everyone’s looking for the perfect teacher, but although their teachings might be divine, teachers are all too human and that’s something people find hard to accept. Don’t confuse the teacher with the lesson, the ritual with the ecstasy, the transmitter of the symbol with the symbol itself. Divinity is linked to your encounter with the forces of life and not with the people who bring this about. When you ask that you get sent guides to assist you, you only find signs to the road you need to follow. However the choices are ours to make and the results will be there to live through.

TAURUS:

If everything in your life is organized down to the last detail and there is no space for opportunity to knock, then you become like an automaton that desperately wants to cling to your plans instead of living life like an adventure. You avoid any risks and thereby fail to see the beauty of the world around you. Possibility you are so focused and undistracted on your own aims that you do not notice the feelings of others around you, which can cause them to feel insignificant, excluded and hurt.

This lack of mercy can arise when you judge the action of others in black and white, which may make you feel justified in your retaliation and punishment but is devoid of compassion and empathy.

It is a time to seek beauty and harmony and value the possessions you have got. Your relationship/s are expansive but you have to take responsibility for your own actions and not seek a scapegoat to carry them for you.

GEMINI:

Whether you realize it or not, most people are constantly manipulated by the media and established institutions which influence the national “agenda”. This, in turn, influences much of your own behavior, expectations, and values. Your notions of right and wrong, and your concepts of morality are also part of your cultural heritage and experiences. This method of control does not require the use of physical force, and has been so successful that few recognize or feel the manipulations.

However now with the Uranus making a square to the sun it is inevitable that you will start asking yourself some personal questions and you need to find some answers as to where and what you want to achieve and crate in your life.

You will also start feeling deep stirrings of your spiritual awareness and growth and you will find that there is no black and white answer to the questions you may be asking.

CANCER:

A control issue could give you sleepless nights … stay objective and try not to let it get to you. Taking things personally won’t help and the same applies to a relationship dynamic

You’ll seldom stick around in a job that’s mundane or repetitive as you are keen to be involved with new projects and you thrive in a competitive environment.

You can have difficulty in finishing what you start and often leave the finer details for others to complete. Because you like to think you are independent by nature you could be uneasy taking instructions or cooperating with others. Possibly some people might find you brash at times but you’re happiest when you have a mission to accomplish.

As you are very aware of your boundaries you need a demarcated working space. It should be easy to access and without clutter especially if you’re on the run.

For the moment it seems as if it is your destiny to suffer through your work but make sure you do not get caught up in victim mode

LEO:

You may feel as if you are facing a wall of pragmatic necessities which is solid as earth and you cannot just passionately burn your way through them. Consequently the best advice would be to slow down and deal with the practical necessities in life. But since when has any Leo taken good advice but rather dramatically insisted on doing things their way. Just as the boredom with tranquility sets in, Uranus strikes swift as a bolt of lightning to bring about sudden, unpredictable happenings.

While you are still processing the effects of the sudden changes in your life, you will feel things lighten up and your spirited, sunny self perks it’s head up again.

You may once again be in a quandary concerning a problem on the home front that has intermittently bothered you for some time. Discuss the issue with a trusted friend or your partner and you possibly will hit on a solution.

VIRGO:

A lot of your emotional issues at present are directly related to your home and also to the way you care and nurture yourself. You need to realize your own personal needs and attend to them and it is through learning to say things in a less impulsive way and non- aggressively but with sympathy and compassion.

The main focus is on your friendships and relationships. In your relationships you are expanding and there’s a lot of growth as well as opportunity for family affairs. But if you don’t look at your own creative powers and abilities you will find the friendships and relationship are heavily taxed with dissatisfaction. A person that is not finding and expressing their own creative potential starts to become a drain on others energy. You need to apply yourself to things that make you happy and content as well as express who you are. Be open-minded and learn new ways of approaching your life and situations that are challenges for you. Apply yourself creatively and pursue what you believe in.

LIBRA:

When you are feeling insecure about any part of your life and specially in your friendships, this can prod you into attempting to resolve things more quickly than is naturally possibly and you are then prone to rushing into matters that you have not given deeper thought to and you keep racing around as if there is some ghastly time limit set upon you. With your strong personality you can either precipitate predicaments where hurrying seems unavoidable or use such forcefulness quickly to slow down, decide what you are after and then establish your own more comfortable pace.

Whatever motivates you in the first place is a sense of insecurity. So you have difficulty in being calm as this can become boring to you. Nonetheless you have a marvelous ability to recover quickly from traumas, be they emotional, mental or physical. Being subject to emotional surges rather than lingering moods marks your resilience as you are inclined to experience life as something of the moment.

SCORPIO:

Your interactions with your friends and also in groups is especially intense for lately but this has now come to an ending and you will find friendships blossom and grow more spontaneously and fluid. if you are blindly expecting security and predictability in your love life then you are in for a disappointment. You have a strong urge to prevent stagnation and maintain fluidity in your relationships and a partnership that is not allowed change and freedom is doomed to failure whereas being true to your desire to pursue your dreams and ideas will literally rejuvenate flagging relationships.

You need to nurture your love through being more steadfast and not abandoning it or leaving it to the winds of fate. You like variety but it is better to seek diversity within a relationship than outside of it, for obvious reasons. If you feel you love someone you should let it be known to them rather than sitting on the fence.

SAGITTARIUS:

Changes can occur during this year, which affect the emotions deeply, forcing you to think more carefully about the consequences of your thoughts and actions.

These changes will constantly throw you back upon your own resources so you become more aware of where your true strengths lie.

You may feel the need to learn more about your spiritual destiny and matters of a mystical nature,

Harmony will be important to you and it is natural to feel a sense of duty to your family or community. The lesson is to find a balance between the expression of your own creative energies and time given to family or community affairs. You will feel burdened and resentful if you do not create these balances and you have to make choices along these lines.

CAPRICORN:

There is an inclination to surrender to others ideas and ways to avoid conflict, but you need to assert your own boundaries, which is a natural process for you. This is a turning point that gives you freedom from restrictions you imposed on yourself in the previous year. Because you are a very practical person you have the gift of being able to find solutions to situations and things that you create or make. You are capable of becoming very expressive as your practical side is well balanced with your imaginative, creative side. You have a flair for the dramatic side of life and could do very well on stage too – but life is a stage itself and you will enact your own role in your life. Because you are so concentrated you are able to fulfill and make a success whichever direction you choose, except for the option of not doing anything at all.

Be wary of involving others in your plans if you have specific personal aspirations in your sights.

AQUARIUS:

Combining your obviously creative and enterprising mind with an awareness of the ideas and attitudes of other people involved in your dramas will benefit everyone and not least of all your own projects.

You tackle problems imaginatively and energetically and are able to teach effectively because you encourage interest in a subject through your creative and dramatic treatment of it. The way you speak has authority built into it and so others automatically take you seriously as you have so many good ideas. Allowing them to be mixed with and slightly altered by the input of others will strengthen and enrich them and rather than being a frustrated one-person show your mind will thus become the vital spark that ignites any greater group endeavors.

Do not get side-tracked by irrelevant criticisms but stick to the facts that are presented to you.

PISCES:

You are always trying to be fair but you need to have firm principles if you are to discover and establish your own ground rather than just teeter on the spot. Your undeniable social or political dynamic outlook should become a self-motivated expression rather than a two-dimensional response that can earn you a reputation for indecisiveness or insincerity and even moral cowardice for the lack of individual identity.

You tend to attract quite assertive people to yourself. You either accept this as desirable or eventually you realize that this is an imbalance or even an injustice in itself and that you must get off the fence and start making your own standpoint firm and clear. You may be inclined to make decisions without consulting your partners or others. As a result of this failure to delegate to others you may have to resort to being troublesome in some ways -- from being aggressive to being feeble. So being more decisive and allowing others to also take charge at times brings a better balance into your life.
