Sun conjunct Mars

Prepare to get your way

If you've ever felt like getting your way, the next 12 months are what you've been waiting for. You've got a fire under you, and your energy levels are so high, you may find yourself wishing you didn't have to sleep. This is really a time that's all about you, and quite frankly, you're determined to make sure everyone else knows that. As you're scrambling your way up the career ladder -- or into the arms of a loved one -- remember to try to avoid stepping on people's toes.When it comes to your career, you might as well pick a goal (or many) and go for it. Your chance of working your way to success is extremely high. You have just the right amount of ambition and adventure in you to take the big risks necessary for great achievements. Be sure to keep an eye on your temper -- it could be your downfall. All the same rules apply to your love life. If you're already with someone, your tremendous passion could very easily rekindle the romance. Just remember to give them a break sometimes, as they may have a hard time keeping up! If you're still looking for the perfect someone, try to be considerate when you do find them -- they've just been completely swept off their feet by you and are probably still trying to catch their breath.

You are your own rock

Nice as it would be to have a stable support system, your stability is going to have to come from within. Unfortunately, throughout the year, that will be made more difficult, as the harder to try to get a grip on current situations, the harder they'll be to grasp. You'll have to be your own rock.Everything in your world will be shifting and moving, making you wish you could just escape from it all. Again, you're going to have to turn within. Tempting as drugs or alcohol may be, they'll only cause you even more problems. If you need to escape, visit your own imagination; create a world of your own into which you can disappear when things just get too complicated. Or, if that doesn't work for you, try something easier like going to a movie or taking a short trip.Romance will also be difficult now. Since your understanding of yourself and your world is inaccurate, and you don't really see others for who they are, it will be challenging for you to relate to them. Remember that there must be some boundaries between you and others in order for the relationship to work out. Your best bet is to take many personal retreats so you have plenty of time for spend time alone and look within.

Sun quincunx Uranus

An odd perspective

Eccentric doesn't even begin to describe you. The stars will give you such an odd perspective of the world around you this year, that others will be inclined to ask what happened to the real you. The reality is that you've just got one heck of a finely tuned mind, and you're much more aware of everything around you than almost anyone else. However, it's likely that people will take your strange behavior and comments as attempts to rock the boat, rather than be impressed by them.There are two ways to respond to the criticism of others during this stretch of time. Your first option is to take what they say to heart and try to change who you are to fit some sort of societal norm. But beware: if you follow this route, you'll struggle throughout the year as your mind rebels against your actions. Your other option is to take things in stride and with humor. Turn it all into a satire -- write it out, create a comic strip, anything that will help those around you see the lighter side to your incredible insights. They'll catch on to the insights themselves later on. It'll just take some time.

Mercury in Capricorn

Eliminating cynicism

A structured and disciplined mind can accomplish a great deal, as you'll soon discover. You'll see patterns in everything you think about, which will provide an inherent organization to all of your work. Clear communications will be a snap, as others will easily understand anything you explain, and you'll find there's a certain sureness and confidence in your words. You might become a bit too traditional in your thinking, though, so you'll want to work a little harder to keep your mind open to new ideas.Cynicism could play a role in your life, this year. A little bit of skepticism will keep you on your toes and allow you a more accurate account of your world. But cynicism can hold you back. You don't want to become so mistrustful of others intentions that your mind turns into a destructive force, keeping out any new ideas or concepts. You may display formal communication styles and be a bit hesitant to share your thoughts and plans, but that doesn't mean that anyone who isn't like you has ulterior motives. Remain open to new ways of thinking, and be aware that inspiration and influential ideas can come in just about any form.

Mercury trine Jupiter

It's not luck, it's talent

Sometimes you get lucky and you can see both the forest and the trees. Other times you get even luckier and you have entire years with this kind of clarity. This is one of those years, and if you use it to your advantage, you can create a strong future for yourself.You'll have a keen eye for noticing everything around you, making your ability to see both the big picture and the smaller details more a factor of talent than luck. Where others see you as having things just going your way, you'll actually be achieving greatness because you were able to put into action some thoughtful, well-laid plans. Note that you are the one who has to put these plans into action. You may discover a certain tendency toward laziness if you're not careful, and that could be the downfall to all these great ideas of yours.However, if you are diligent and hardworking, this could be your chance to take off with your career. You're about to turn into a problem-solving machine, and it'll be hard for people (especially your higher-ups) not to notice your incredible talents for finding positive solutions to even the most challenging conundrums.

Mercury sextile Venus

Open communication

With the way you'll be chatting people up, it'll be like you just took a trip to Ireland and kissed the Blarney Stone... repeatedly. For the next year, you're going to have an incredible gift of gab. From social situations to romance, you'll know exactly what to say and when to say it.You'll have a natural eloquence, and you'll easily make sense of other people's ideas, confusing or otherwise. As you should be trying to keep the lines of communication as open as possible with as many people as possible, this ease of understanding will prove quite beneficial. Job associations and other relationships will flow more smoothly, and your ability to form new acquaintances will reach a high point. In fact, schmoozing, negotiating and diplomacy are skills you'll master this year. Love will also be a strong point for you since you'll be so good at saying what that special someone wants to hear. Just make sure you don't spend so much time talking that you forget to listen. Keep your emotions flowing openly and get creative with your dates -- poetry readings and museums will grab you now, and they always have just the perfect touch of romance.

Mercury sextile Saturn

A transfer of knowledge

Persistence is a virtue. Yes, normally that saying is more appropriate with 'patience,' but in your case, the stars have made an exception. From now until your next birthday, you'll have the gumption to get the job done, no matter how much time and effort it takes. This will be made more powerful by the fact that you'll only apply yourself to projects that really are worth all that trouble.As you take on more projects and begin pestering people more to get the information you need, remember to call upon your own personal experiences for dealing with others. Consider how you respond to requests, and also offer up some advice to help with items other people are trying to cross of their lists -- your assistance will make them much more interested in helping you in return. If you find you enjoy the time you spend sharing your knowledge with those in need, you might want to consider teaching a class yourself. If that doesn't work out, try taking a class instead. Your mind will absorb and organize the new information well, and the simple transfer of knowledge is enough to make you happy now.

Venus in Scorpio

Deep love

Still waters can run extremely deep. When those waters are your love life, you can add the colorful swirls of gasoline reflecting off the surface, but just waiting to be ignited. Oh, and you might want to throw a hidden whirlpool in at the bottom, too. Your romantic life, which is usually complex enough on its own, is about to get many layers of mystery, depth and passion thrown in as well. You'll be a sexual magnet these next 12 months, and yet so much of you will remain hidden.There will be a dark side to your love and you could become very possessive and jealous. Your passions will be valuable to you and to those with whom you come in contact, and you'll do whatever you can to protect them. But if you become obsessive, overly sensitive or jealous, you'll know your efforts have been displaced. The intensity of your love and your creativity could be intimidating to some, but it's through these outlets that you'll reach a higher level of being. Your transformation this year to a much deeper soul will lead to an oddly empowering willingness to surrender your desires to the one you love most. Let the waters with in you boil up, and learn from the experiences they create.

Venus trine Saturn

Stable, long-lasting love

In a world of constant changes and unreliable people, you're becoming a rock. You'll be one of those dependable, loyal people that everyone loves to have around this year. You won't be particularly social, but you'll accept anyone who comes to you. Relationships will begin easily, mainly because you won't feel like dealing with anyone who doesn't connect well with you. These same relationships will also be much more likely to last longer because you'll just naturally have a stronger connection to people who are reliable. So romantically, you could find yourself with a strong, stable partner.Though you won't be overly social, you will find yourself concerned with appearances. You'll be very much aware of the public image of those with whom you associate yourself, as well as what others think of you. Try not to let this go to your head; let your grounded nature override any shallow tendencies. Help someone (or many someones) in need this year. Simple things like making soup for a sick friend or volunteering at a homeless shelter will go a long way toward helping another and feeling good about yourself. On the financial side of things, if you have a bit of extra money, this year will be a good time to invest as you'll be likely to see a pleasing return.

Venus opposite Jupiter

Temptation at every corner

Temptation can sure be awfully tempting sometimes, eh? And with the coming year, you'll have a hard time resisting any temptation that comes your way. Making things even more complicated will be your need to have whatever you desire immediately -- anything you have to wait for will drive you up the wall. On the plus side, you'll have a fairly pleasant outlook on life, and there will be many possibilities open to you if you can slow down enough to look for them.You'll find that what you value in the spiritual world will differ greatly from your materialistic values, and you may have a hard time coming to terms with that. The partners you seek out will likely be people you believe will help you understand who you really are and what you really need. You'll find yourself drawn to anyone you think of as a teacher, as one of your deepest desires will be to enhance your own knowledge. Your search for the perfect person could lead you to project your own intelligence and value systems onto others. Be careful that you don't forsake your own success because you expect it to come from someone close to you. Take some time off if you need a break, and get out and see the world -- that way you'll expand your understanding without relying on others to do it for you.

Venus square Pluto

Controlling and possessive

The perfect relationship is one in which both parties feel completely equal, and as you work your way through the upcoming year, you're going to realize just how important that is. But this realization will probably come the hard way. There's a dark, controlling, seductive side to your emotions and any relationship you belong to or venture into will be lopsided. Your desire for power will become both possessive and obsessive, and until you understand your darker side, your relationships will never be as fulfilling as you'd like.Sexually, as well as romantically, you'll become very dominating, but you must remember that if you love someone, you need to set them free. If you don't trust your partner to go out and make their own decisions, then you're not in a healthy relationship; you're in a possessive situation that will likely spiral out of your control. You'll need to come up with creative outlets for your power issues, and try to turn them into an opportunity for self-transformation. Ultimately, this is about how much control you have over yourself, and when you realize that, you'll be on the path toward your own personal freedom.

Mars in Sagittarius

Expansive understanding

Expansive knowledge is within your grasp. Your energies will be dedicated toward developing your intellect, and while that's always a good thing, you might want to ask yourself what your motivations are. Your potential for self-righteous behavior is high, and you may be inclined to expand your knowledge in an effort to be better than others, rather than for the simple sake of learning. That could prevent you from reaching your full potential, so you should try to make sure your motives are pure.You'll fight hard for your values, which is fine, but you should remember that everyone else is allowed the same privilege. More important than being right is the ability to be flexible. Many situations will come up that will test your sense of right and wrong, and being able to admit to a change of position will be a sign that you're on track to developing a healthy belief system, one in which you can assert your opinion without anyone else feeling threatened. Look for the big picture, as it will help you understand the opinions and perspectives of others without getting bogged down in the details.

Jupiter in Taurus

Earthly wisdom

The world around you can offer up plenty of learning opportunities that you can use to improve your life. It will simply be up to you to uncover these and use them to your advantage these next 12 months. Nature, especially, can provide a wealth of knowledge. From the growth of the plants to the communication between animals, there's a lot for you to learn. One of the most valuable lessons you can learn this year will be to take pleasure in all the small things around you.It's time to unravel any cynical attitudes that may have been holding you back. Your life does not need to be any more complicated than you make it, and only you have the capabilities to make things easier for yourself. If possible, take responsibility for holding down the fort. If you're smart with your investments, you could create some extra time for yourself. Plus, notwithstanding your tendencies to go to excess with food and sex, you'll have a good grasp of the essentials of life, and your love and understanding of security will make you a solid rock that those close to you can build upon. Share your wisdom of creating this ideal life with others -- they may not heed your advice immediately, but you'll have at least planted the seed of knowledge.

Jupiter retrograde

Open Your Mind

For hundreds of years, people believed the world was flat. And then, in what was comparatively a blink of the eye, they were forced to change their views and accept that the earth was round. Don't be surprised if your beliefs go through a similarly drastic about-face, this year. You'll need to remain completely open-minded when it comes to the values of others because you never know when you might be completely stunned to discover that they could actually be right. This doesn't mean that you'll have to disregard the beliefs and faith you've worked so hard to develop over the years, but it does mean that there may be more to life than just what you understand at the beginning of the year. Travel as much as possible to open yourself up to new ways of thinking, and then share what you've learned. Talk with people you come across, and maybe even think of becoming a teacher. This will be one of those times where you may not even realize change is happening until much later. Just remember that, regardless of what you think or feel about the events and values around you, it's important to remain open to them -- they may just change your life!

Jupiter sextile Saturn

Learning from each experience

Basically, your whole life is about personal growth. It's about taking what you've learned and expanding on that to make things better for the future. If ever there was a time for you to dive right in and get started on the plan to improve yourself and your future, this year is it. Theoretically, you should try identify every growth opportunity that comes before you, but in reality, every single experience is just that opportunity. Use this knowledge and it will help you bring a positive influence to any and all aspects of your life.It will be up to you to motivate yourself to open the doors that will bring you a better future, and fortunately, you'll have the skills to do just that. You'll have a grasp of the details you'll need to work through in order turn your dreams into reality. Your strong understanding of your place in society will be a major component in just how far you can go -- which will be quite far, if you put your mind to it. You will have the creative ability to imagine the best life possible, and you will be able to accept the responsibility of seeing that come to life. Ultimately, your power to see everything to completion will be your greatest strength and ally.

Jupiter square Pluto

Unplanned successes

Struggling to work effectively with people in power will start to feel second nature to you. You'll have a strong drive to succeed and to reach high levels of power yourself, but it will begin to feel like others are purposely trying to hold you back. That may or may not be true, but what your true focus should be on is your own personal growth. If someone blocks one path, then you must decide whether to defend yourself or find another path. You may be tempted to choose the former, but look carefully at the situation before making a decision. Either this person is really out to get you, or they're stopping you for a reason, and in either case, you may want to step aside and let them have their way.That could be the hardest lesson for you to learn this year. Your own desire for power and your tendency to overreact will make it extremely difficult for you to just step back from your plans because someone else said so. Avoid becoming too obsessed about a particular plan or goal, and try to remain open to change. Your challenge will be to find a common source between your goals and those of others. When you've achieved that, you'll know you've accomplished what the stars had in mind for you this year, and that could result in some unplanned successes.

Saturn in Pisces

Faith in the unknown

So much out there is unexplained, intangible and just not understood. And yet you'll be asked to put your faith in it, anyway. Scary? Yes. But doable? Probably. Your fears may hold you back for a while. The unknown is always a scary place to visit, but you'll be asked to live there this year. Irrational thoughts will rule your world, and you'll feel like you don't have enough control over the chaotic circumstances that take hold of your life. Sometimes you need to take a leap of faith and trust that things will work themselves out in the end.In response to this, you may have problems with drugs or other addictions. You could also develop relationship issues, and you may not feel comfortable devoting yourself to someone else or relating to others with true compassion. However, once you can accept that you have these fears and faults, you can work on improving them. At that point you will begin to build up faith again, and you'll be more likely to be able to develop a compassionate and unconditional love, as well as a more matured trust in the intangibles of life, such as the mystical and spiritual aspects.

Northnode in Aries

Your true individuality

The desire to discovering your true individuality will hold a strong power over you this year. You'll be looking to develop a freer, more accurate way to express yourself as a distinct entity, separate and unrelated to those around you. This may sound an awful lot like a teenager struggling to find themselves, and it is similar, but your actions and reactions in trying to find yourself will go much deeper than just understanding your place in society. You will attempt to walk away with a truer idea of who you are and where you're going by the time your next birthday rolls around.You are already familiar with your place in in society and in your more personal relationships. The path to your future will start when you step beyond that and attempt to familiarize yourself with who you are as an individual. You will seek out challenges in an effort to fulfill the independent energy within. This could include anything from pulling away from a comfortable partnership to heading off on your own with your career. You don't want to alienate others in your search for your identity, but you will need to head out on your own if you're going to succeed in following your life path this year.

Uranus in Taurus

Secure changes

You are heading into a unique situation in which you will have the power to make major change, but you'll be able to do so in a grounded and safe way. Progressive action can be scary and unpredictable, but you will manage to create a smooth balance between the radical ideas flowing through your mind and the processes needed to turn these ideas into reality. You will certainly see some major transformations occur in many aspects of your life, and possibly in aspects of the rest of the world as well.There is much wisdom to be gained from this world, both from nature and from history. Unlocking these secrets will be the key to keeping your originality and growth moving forward in a stable manner. Two of your major weaknesses this year could, ironically, be a fear of change and an impatience about upcoming transitions. Mixed in with your forward-thinking ways will be a stubborn steak, a part of you that just wants everything to remain the same. At the same time, you'll be giddy waiting for your plans to go into effect. If possible, try to find a happy medium. Your mental powers will be strong and stabling this year, so don't forget to use them on your own psyche as well.

Uranus sextile Neptune

Spiritual technology

Ever notice how so many of the greatest artists and writers got no credit for their work when it first came out? That's because they were too far ahead of their times -- sort of like you in the coming months. The exception being that you won't have quite as hard a time getting your ideas out (though it will still be a challenge). You'll have a wonderful openness to new thoughts and concepts, and you'll develop a clear style of communication that will help others see and understand your point of view. They may not agree at first, but they'll come around eventually.You will develop a lovely balance between science and spirituality this year. Technology will motivate you to turn to your spiritual side in an effort to understand all that's going on and why it's here. You might want to turn to less orthodox realms such as astrology, tarot or the occult to satisfy the unusual side of you. It will be your goal to push the boundaries of human knowledge farther out, and if anything can raise some eyebrows it will be going out of the mainstream for religious or spiritual beliefs. You, if no one else, will certainly develop a highly evolved understanding of the dynamics of human experience.

Neptune in Pisces

Altruistic motives

The truest compassion is not something that comes and goes depending on your moods or the circumstances, but rather, it's a state of being. It should be given out as unconditional love for all creatures, good and bad. The most real feelings of brotherhood and sisterhood will come to you this year when you are able to develop a genuine empathy for all creatures on earth. You will feel something of a craving to get out and help those in need as much as possible, and that's one craving you should certainly give in to. Volunteer at homeless shelters, children's organizations, hospitals, etc. -- anything that will leave you satisfied with the work you've done.Your spiritual connection will also become much stronger, and you'll feel an overwhelming desire to transcend the rational world and move more fully into your belief system. Again, feel free to give in to the desire. Let your dream world and your imagination guide you along the path to enlightenment. Just be sure you don't fall astray into the world of escapism. Though you might enjoy yourself there, you will not fully complete yourself until you leave the physical realm behind your entirely.

Neptune sextile Pluto

The cycle of life

The cycle of life says that something must die in order for more life to go on. This could be something traumatic like a mother dying in childbirth, but that's extremely rare compared to all the other little things that occur by the millions every day. A piece of rotten fruit in a field provides nutrients to animals passing by or the soil below it. A caterpillar turns into a butterfly. Even you getting rid of old clothes to make room for new ones falls under this category. Change and transformation are simply processes of life, and ones that we deal with every day.This year, however, you'll be more sensitive to the transformations that occur, and they'll become a part of who you are. It will likely be a very spiritual time for you, as you will begin to question all that goes on around you. Just what is the reason for our cyclical behavior? How can one concept apply to every aspect of life (e.g. for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction)? These questions and many others will plague you as you make a transition from simply accepting the world around you, to really seeing its complexities and wondering if a powerful being is in charge, or if everything just fell into place somehow, like a well-oiled machine.

Pluto in Capricorn

Societal transformation

Your mission for the year will be a total overhaul of all the outmoded forms of society that can no longer measure up or function as they're supposed to. Sound like a big job? It is. But you can start by just focusing on the structure of your own life and trying to transform that before you even attempt to tackle societal issues. One of the key areas you might want to look at improving, though, will be your social status. The higher you can raise your social standing, the more freedom you'll have to make more necessary changes later on.In fact, if you can increase your social status, you'll actually be on the path to breaking up some of society's most useless structures, which involve placing power in a small minority. Your goal is to work your way into that minority and try to break it up from the inside. Again, this is by no means a small task, and you should only focus on your own life this year. Maybe a promotion at work can help you reset some of your corporate structures, giving you practice for a bigger job later on. If you want to jump right in to freeing society from the power of the social elites, then see what kind of luck you can have in your own town. Volunteer for an elected official or get your own name on the ballot for the next election.

I hope you have enjoyed the valuable insight, wisdom and guidance of this astrology report. You might be a little curious about astrology and perhaps wondering how an astrologer can know so much about you!

Astrology is a mathematical system. It's all about applying meaning to numbers, or more specifically, finding meaning in the movements of the planets around the Sun, as viewed from our perspective here on earth. These planetary movements are easily captured and recorded with measurements, calculations, angles and so on.

That's why astrology works so well with computers, whose programs are also based on numbers and formulas. In 'the old days' -- thousands of years ago, when astrology was first recorded -- those early astrologers had to painstakingly observe the heavens and catalog their observations for the next generation of astrologers to build upon. Thank goodness for the computer age! Now we can simply use computers to make those calculations quickly and pull just the applicable pieces of information. Now, astrology is instant, based upon thousands of years of observations obtained through careful methodology.

Interpretations of planetary positions are based in part on ancient Greek and Roman mythology, but your astrological report is unique, describing you and you only. Even in the case of twin siblings, their birth charts differ from each other's in at least a few ways. And besides, no one amounts to just a simple interpretation of their birth chart; everyone's personality is complex. Your astrological report leaves plenty of room for variations based on your free will, personal growth and transformation over a lifetime.

Just like you, your astrological report is unique. It’s generated online in seconds and provides you with instant insight at your fingertips. Whether you have a pressing question about your future or you just want some guidance and direction, now you can have it all -- in a fast, focused, all-about-you format.

You can choose from several different types to find the report that's right for you and your needs. Your natal report is all about you -- your unique characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, potential and so on. Compatibility reports analyze the connections between two different people, to see how well and in what ways they get along. And a forecast is based on where the planets are today and how they're affecting you, uniquely. Be sure to try a free sample of another report to find out more about you!
