Introduction

This astrological forecast report is based on an astrological technique known as solar returns. The influences begin approximately on your birthday and last until the following birthday.

Your Solar Return Forecast Report begins on October 27, 2006.



Zodiac Signs on the Ascendant and MC, and the Ascendant Ruler

The zodiac signs on the Ascendant and MC, and the house position of the Ascendant ruler at the time of the solar return are described below. Your social and career opportunities for the coming year are influenced by these signs and house placement.


Solar Return Ascendant Scorpio :

     FOLLOW THROUGH ON YOUR GOALS NOW
     ENDLESS ENERGY

    You can either be the devil bringing destruction and ruin, or an angel bestowing blessings on your fellow human beings. Those are the only two options this year, and there are no in-betweens. You will be extremely courageous, strong willed, sensitive, and emotionally deep inside. The capacity you have to overcome any obstacle or adversity that comes to you is unequaled by any other sign.

    You are not easy to understand this year due to your complex makeup. No one would ever say that you don't go after what you want, even if what you want is no good for you, that is beside the point. You do so in a quiet an unassuming way and usually get what you want. You live life to the fullest and dislike people who are superficial. Life has a certain passion and intensity that loves a good challenge, fight, or dare to do the unmentionable no matter where it may take you. For you the struggles in life and the pain it brings are normal daily occurrences and you take them in stride.

    With Scorpio on the Ascendant this year,  your physical stamina will increase, staying with projects until the very end, and can be somewhat obsessed with strengthening the body. You will stay with your goals to the bitter end now as long as there is a glimmer of hope at success. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and, secondarily, by this sign's ancient ruler, the planet Mars. You will be attracted to people who are also strong and magnetic. In your personal affairs you will become more secretive, not willing to reveal to the public your private business. Should you have any bouts with illness during this time, your recuperative abilities are strong, adversities that would befall many others. Health wise, vulnerable areas are the head, face and illnesses of the reproductive organs.

    Psychic abilities and insights into other peoples motives along with knowledge of the hidden side of their personality are a natural gift you share. You are not wishy-washy about people, so when you meet someone you go on first impressions, and how they feel to you. You go through life using an on board radar that defies explanation, as if you could, and that is the way it was meant to be.

    Whether it is a career, love, relationships, decisions, hunches, jealousy or hatred, you do so with your whole heart. You have a special kinship to the animal world and I would be surprised not to see dogs and cats scattered around the property this year. You seem to communicate with pets on a much different level then you do with your fellow humans. You are intensely loyal in your relationships and your partner had better understand that before they get involved or they will suffer the wrath of your revenge. Look to where PLUTO is located to see where your OBSESSIONS will be this year.

            Ascendant is in Scorpio, Pisces Decanate

    Ruled by the planet Neptune,  you can make some real sacrifices and serve humanity, or the other extreme of bringing other people down with you in your quest for self destruction. You will be much more mystical, intense and serious. You will be much more sensitive to your surroundings and more irritable as well.

Ruler of Ascendant in 2nd house

    With the Solar Ascendant Ruler in the Solar 2nd house, the focus is on security, material possessions, values and where your income or resources can be found this year.

Solar Return MC Leo:

    Since this is the most "visible" part of the solar chart, it represents how you are actually seen in the world by others. It represents your more outward or public face and where you are likely to encounter success, and your reputation in the world. Your goals will be courageous, proud and somewhat egotistical. In your career you need a position where all of that Leo energy can shine through. A job in the background would stunt your growth and creativity leaving you bored to death. You are a born leader and because of this you do not take direction or orders from others very well. Careers that allow your creative energy to shine, that bring forth your outstanding and dramatic abilities are what you seek.

    With Leo on the Midheaven, your strong ego needs will look for expression in the public in some way. You may find that assistance comes from the father or an authority figure this year. Careers for Leo include acting, politic, lecturing or a spokesperson for others. You may decide to start working for yourself or rise to a new position in your company.

    You are known for your courage and strength of character, and other people recognize it and you draw them to you for their own support and source of inspiration. Yes, you are somewhat self centered and what mark you can make on the world in the name of self expression is your forte. Do the best that you can, and the world can use you as a model for their own gain and inspiration.




Zodiac Signs on the Other House Cusps

The zodiac signs on the other house cusps affect your attitude to many areas of your life, and have a significant impact on what kinds of opportunities and challenges will present themselves in the coming year.


Sagittarius on 2nd cusp:

     With Sagittarius on the second house cusp you will not have to worry about being reserved, cheap or secretive in financial affairs. You will be generous, willing to share what you have with people in need. For you, your interest in finances extends only to taking care of your needs and sharing, therefore you may not accumulate very much because of your extravagant nature. You are likely to draw success and finances to you because of your naturally lucky personality. You are likely to take risks and suffer some financial losses from time to time. Look to the house containing Jupiter for some insight as to where money can be made. There might be some travel associated with the money that you make as well.

Capricorn on 3rd cusp:

     With Capricorn on the third house of communication and learning,  you are careful in your expression of thoughts and ideas. You are not the kind of person who sits down and write letters or speaking unless the need is absolutely necessary. Because of this you may be seen as secretive or cold in communication. You must be very careful to choose your words carefully and with great forethought, because you can be quite harsh in speech with  others and with family, friends and acquaintances. You are not into idle chit-chat, and because of this it will be difficult for people to communicate with you. The only things that interest you is what can turn your thoughts, ideas and ambitions into reality to work for you. Look to the house where Saturn is found to get some idea where your interests can be found.

Aquarius on 4th cusp:

     With Aquarius on the fourth house of the home, family, roots, real estate, property and security,  you will stress a great deal of freedom within the structure of the home. You will not want to be tied down to a daily routine, and domestic chores will be decided when you get to it. You will experience many domestic upsets, may move frequently and find it difficult to settle in one place. To say the least, your living arrangements may be unusual, be it bomb shelter, school bus, pup tent or camper that you hang your names on. On a positive note your home may be filled with electronic devices, computers, Internet, security and toys to keep you busy. You can come up with some great innovative ideas that should spice up your home life. Look to the house where Uranus is located to see where your home security can be found.

Pisces on 5th cusp:

    You have Pisces on the fifth house of Children, recreation, romance and creativity, artistic abilities, hobbies, writing books (creatively), speculation and investments. You can be somewhat frustrated in creativity, romance and children as constant disappointment and disillusionment accompany Pisces here because of Neptune, the ruler. Nevertheless, there is a strong determination to make some difference in the world through your creativity, maybe in film or photography, art and music. Making sacrifices for children is a requirement for Pisces in the fifth house. Look to the house where Neptune is located to see where you might find your recreation and romance potential.

Aries on 6th cusp:

     You have Aries on the cusp of the sixth house of Work, Work environment, responsibilities, health, work and service for others, relationships with employees and co-workers, and your interest in physical fitness. You are very hard working, and get great satisfaction from the work that you do, but can get lost in your work, excluding everything else. Sometimes you can have difficulties with people around you because of your enthusiastic attitude, where you may be critical of people who are not up to your standards. You may work each other very hard at home or on the job and take a very stern view of health and diet. Look to the house where Mars is located to see where you might find work or service to others.

Taurus on 7th cusp:

     Relationships, partnerships, marriage, people you have close associations with, cooperation or lack of, contracts, and legal matters are all part of the seventh house, with Taurus located here. Loyalty but jealousy and possessiveness will play a strong role in relationships now. You may be involved in a relationship that took a long time to get started, and the process of marriage can only come about after careful scrutiny. Stubbornness exists in relationships, and some stormy days can be expected. Material benefits can easily come to relationships, and security not extravagance is the key to success. Look to the house that contains Venus to see how you will deal with partnerships.

Gemini on 8th cusp:

    The eighth house deals with joint resources. Possessions that are not earned directly by you, but obtained through the relationship, wills, or pensions. It also has to do with money belonging to others such as taxes, corporate money, insurance, and the stock market. The eighth house also relates to the mysteries of life and sex. Gemini will have an influence on the above matters by discussing matters by the hour until you uncover every last detail of what is before you. You always have some pretty good ideas how you should invest or spend money, and the bigger the challenge the better. Look to see which house Mercury is located in, to see where your joint money can be found.

Cancer on 9th cusp:

    The ninth house is the house of long range goals and long distance travel. Religion, philosophy and higher education are ninth house matters. With Cancer ruling the ninth house, you will be emotionally connected to areas that put the spotlight on you, especially in the areas of religion, education and promotions. You will work long and hard on causes that you believe in, and working a long distance from your home would not present any problems for you. Look to the house where the Moon is located to see where your interests in higher aspirations can be found.

Virgo on 11th cusp:

     The eleventh house has domain over achievement of goals and objectives, and hopes and wishes. Humanitarian efforts, clubs, groups, associations, sharing ideals are also associated with the eleventh house. People that support your efforts, friends and connections to the outside world can be found in this house. With Virgo located in the eleventh house, the focus turns to serving friends, groups and organizations. You will be somewhat detached, but work very hard for the welfare of each other, and friends. Crowds are not your forte, and your immediate friends will be few in number. Look to the house where Mercury is located to see where you might find your friends, associations and group involvements and interests.

Libra on 12th cusp:

     The twelfth house rules the subconscious mind, problems arising from unseen causes, and limitations in our lives. This house has rulership over behind the scenes activities, emotional problems, secrets, deceptions, problems to overcome, the side of ourselves away from public view, where the soul can step back and take a look at the world around us. The twelfth house also has rulership over prisons, hospitals, and other institutions that would remove you from society. Libra energy on the twelfth house indicates you can easily become a loner, and feel that your relationships in some way can be fated right from the very beginning. Working together or with others may not work out as you want it to, and lessons in cooperation and working in harmony are the culprits. Look to the house where Venus is located to find that area in which you retire from public view.




The Sun

The placement of the Sun in the solar return chart is very important and affects almost every area of your life!


Sun in 12th house:

    The Solar Sun is now in your 12th house. But what does the  position of the Solar Sun mean to you and how will it affect your life this year? The Sun indicates where the greatest growth will take place during the Solar Year and how it can express itself through creative means, success and recognition in life, or where it can be best identified.

    Private time will be needed so you can spend some quality time by yourself rather than sharing it with the outside world this year. This is not the time to gamble, speculate or take chances with your resources. The intuition is heightened and perhaps you will gain insights into hidden or secret matters that you are curious about. Any secret activities or secret love affairs are much more important to you this year. You may notice an illness can arise, sometimes minor, that forces you to take some rest to recuperate. Look at the aspects to the Solar Sun this year to see what you will accomplish.

Sun sextile Moon:

    The creative juices are flowing this year! What can you use that creativity on? Let your mind go free and experience something perhaps for the first time.

    Don't be so easygoing this year that people take advantage of you unless you want them to, that is the only real danger this here. Romance and Real Estate matters are also favored.

    Satisfaction with working conditions allows a better product to be produced and a more traditional type of entertainment will prove more satisfying to you in your off time.

Sun conjunction Venus:

    An optimistic outlook and a desire to cooperate with others is present. Plan or take part in social activities or put your energies into creative outlets, because this is an excellent time for artistic self expression. Relationships are highlighted, but use caution because overindulgence of any kind are likely in this year. New love interests can touch you very deeply this year. Matters of money can play a very important part of your life at this time.

    Clear perceptions highlight this year so buy some artwork, go take part in the pursuit of fun and good times or bring good feelings and peace to others. Play the lottery or other speculative venture, but remember that Venus represents small wins as compared to Jupiter's large wins. You are the optimist who is happy and cheerful.

Sun conjunction Mars:

    Use a lot of restraint when dealing with others to avoid confrontations. The self confidence and assertion level is high so be careful not to use force as a means to an end. Games of competition, physical exertion or sports are highly favored or try a workout at the gym.

    In the business sector, there can be an active influence to be number 1, but don't step on other people in the process. The danger this year is being too IMPULSIVE, getting yourself into trouble. Start new projects this year, especially if it involves a good physical work out. One of the problems with this year is working around sharp objects of any kind, or machinery because the possibility of injury is increased.

    One of the unfortunate definitions of this influence is being "The Bully", so tone yourself down! Courage is a very positive attribute here in the face of danger to see you through it and you will not be afraid of anything. On the negative side you must be careful not to lose control, lose your temper or get into arguments that CAN lead to violence. The sex drive is strong as well as the pursuit of "lust" disguised as "romance" is in high gear.




The Moon

The placement of the Moon in the solar return chart affects emotions, moods, domestic affairs and relationships with women during the coming year.


Solar Return Moon in 2nd house:

    The Solar  Moon is now in your 2nd house. The Solar Moon rules your emotional needs and the specific houses show where your needs will lie and be met for the next 12 months.  The Moon shows where significant changes will take place during the year, and where relationships are formed.

    When the Solar Moon is in our 2nd house we become emotionally attached to our possessions, including the family automobile. Generosity isn't commonplace during this year because we are too involved in our own patterns of security. Spending money can be the way we pacify our emotional needs and we will buy more useless material possessions to make us feel secure, wanted and needed and if we were in a different frame of mind, we would know that.

    Men will spend their money on electronic gadgets of any kind, whereas women will take a different approach and buy clothing, jewelry, make catalog purchases, host a home house party and buy products to beautify themselves. The routine and everyday financial matters of life take on great importance this year. Balancing the budget and increasing your savings should be the goals that provide emotional security for you. Groceries and domestic supplies also can also bring emotional satisfaction. If you are short of money this year, you will also be short on self worth as well. On the positive side we can appreciate what we have a lot more, especially if they trigger thoughts of the past that brought us great happiness. If the Solar Moon is harshly aspected while it is here, matters of security can look for material gain to satisfy it. If you are away from home this year, there will be a great need to come back now, so that you can feel more secure in your own surroundings and bed.

Moon sextile Venus:

    Physical attractions, harmony, great feelings and an appreciation for beauty exist in your life this year. This is a very POSITIVE time for love and romance, children, gentleness, sensuality or being in love and devoted to your spouse or mate. If you have been fighting, had disagreements or experienced a breakup in relationships, you can easily see them renewed this year.

    Happiness is in abundance with feelings of tenderness and affection for everyone in your environment. Women may decide they want to have a baby this year.

Moon sextile Mars:

    You will draw strong and courageous people to you and you will be attracted to them too. Feelings are wonderful and in harmony with your surroundings. Domestic chores will go quickly and easily, and this energy will give you the added drive to be busy in your daily life. Sexuality reaches a peak with this energy, and more freedom and space will be sought, with an added tolerance for others.

Moon sesquiquadrate MC:

    This is not a time for work because you are in a very lazy frame of mind. Instead, this is a year for goofing off! Your emotions are out of harmony with others, and there can be difficulty adjusting to family expectations as well. Domestic problems can arise and should be dealt with immediately. This is an unfavorable time for public relations and business activities involving public contact. There will also be an uncertainty relating to people that you associate with, and a lack of maturity in social situations. You may notice some temporary allergic reactions to your environment and minor problems with your eyesight.




Mercury

The placement of Mercury in the solar return chart affects communication, and your ability to learn and express yourself during the coming year.


Solar Return Mercury in 1st house:

    Mercury is in your 1st house, and indicates areas of interests in your life this year, as well as health matters or where your thoughts are likely to be focused. Because Mercury "is" communication of every form, it shows where transactions, business deals, service to others, writing and communication will be focused.

    You will be opening up verbally to the outside world now and this will be a welcomed change after last year when communication was not only difficult but unwanted. People will react to you now just shaking their heads as you talk with such speed that they never get a word in edgewise. Because of this be careful of confusing yourself and others at the same time. This is a favorable year for negotiating and forming contracts with others and short distance travels are emphasized. Stressful aspects to Mercury while in the 1st house can bring on nervous problems and irritations, a very rigid self righteous attitude can develop or the communicative ability interferes with working conditions.

Mercury conjunction Jupiter:

    Mergers involving insurance companies or investments are favored as well as merchandising, buying and selling. Rewards and appreciation can come through raises and partnerships. Interests shared with others are in complete harmony.

    There can be delusions that you can never be wrong in what you strive for, but please remember to consider others in all matters.

    A year for making long range plans and talking together. Remember that Jupiter expands what it touches. In this case it touches the communicative side of our nature.

Mercury square Saturn:

    If you are involved in sales, they may not be up to par and it might be best to reschedule clients. Dragging the past into your life this year won't help matters, so leave them in the past. Keep things on a strictly legal basis and keep business strictly business this year.

    Communication problems can leave you alienated from others, and lost mail or delays in deliveries can be expected. People will say what is on their mind this year and you will not take criticism very well.

    Negativity and mistrust surround you this year and ill health and problems with bones, teeth, constipation, aches, pains, colds and flu can develop. Energy levels and vitality will be very low as well. This is not good time for legal matters.

Mercury Semisextile Pluto:

    This is a very Spiritually attuned time in which new insights can be gained into the world. Your thinking may be off in the edges of "outer space" somewhere this year, so wait until you come back to earth to make decisions. Recreational clubs and activities can flourish and the potential for writing or speaking to others is very favorable.

    Be on the alert for positive trends in business and finance, you may be able to take advantage of it for your own personal use. The accuracy of interpretations and personal insights are profound. Paying attention to details can uncover some wonderful facets of your life, so practice positive thinking for mental stability. Your perceptions are right on target, so make sure to pay attention to your own little voice. Be flexible and willing to bend when dealing with others. You possess the ability to comfort others in their time of need.

    Courage is abundant to face the future and any dealings and communications with other people is favored. You can act as a mediator for people experiencing conflicts, or go over your personal finances and make the necessary changes. Advise and council others if you are asked.

Mercury trine Node:

    Communications increase with harmonious results this year. This is also a favorable time for public relations, advertising, short trips and contacts with the general public and it is also a very sociable time for the exchange of ideas. You have a good grasp of any situation at hand and your judgement is sound, so use it for any form of the written or oral word. Joint plans and the exchange of ideas will prosper, and the same goes for any intellectual pursuits, social or business communications.

Mercury square MC:

    Disagreements are likely with others in your environment, so make decisions and stick to them. Things can easily get blown out of proportion so keep the issues in focus. This is a difficult year for people to meddle in your affairs, gossiping, health, dealing with the public or matters on the job. Your home and life are out of sync with each other.




Venus

The placement of Venus in the solar return chart affects romance and friendship over the coming year.


Solar Return Venus in 12th house:

    Venus is in your 12th house this year. Venus is the Goddess of  love and where you might find it and money matters and how you will handle it or what you might spend money on.  Venus shows where you are likely to find compatibility with love or money, or where favors can be found from others.

    Compassion and understanding for the world around you, selfless actions in love and helping those more unfortunate than yourself become important. Problems that are unresolved, spiritual rewards, private and secret loves are highlighted as well. Secret admirers or relationships with secret overtones can easily develop. If Venus forms harsh aspects to the 12th house, there may be some secret love attachments or adopt a self-indulgent attitude that has a harmful effect on your reputation.

Venus conjunction Mars:

    A very aggressive nature exists this year and petty annoyances will be encountered if you try to push sensitive issues. You will be working hard to make things beautiful in your environment. Don't hurt someone you like, as the potential to do so is there and difficult to rectify. This is a very artistic time when creativity can be expressed easily.

    Romantic relationships started now will prove to be most stimulating and fulfilling. Business connected to art, music, luxury items and insurance is favored.




Mars

The placement of Mars in the solar return chart affects your drive, ambition, and vitality during the coming year.


Solar Return Mars in 12th house:

    Mars is in your 12th house this year. Mars is the planet of intense activity and the house it occupies by placement shows where that activity will take place. Mars is aggressive and can be quite selfish in its needs and desires, so be careful how you utilize this tremendous energy. Mars also indicates where new ventures or projects can begin, where you will be highly motivated, where you can expect to be much more competitive, but also quarrels if aspected poorly.

    A time of secretive and behind the scenes activities fills this year. Secret enemies may arise to be dealt with or occult and metaphysical subjects can be investigated and utilized. Hospital procedures, self undoing and charitable endeavors also come with this year. Energy and vitality will be at a low point and you require rest and a placid environment. If you are experiencing difficult aspects, you may have to take the blame for something you are not responsible for, become involved in secretive activities, or be sought out by secret enemies.




Jupiter

The placement of Jupiter in the solar return chart determines in what areas of your life you are likely to have opportunities for growth and expansion during the coming year.


Solar Return Jupiter in 1st house:

    Jupiter is in your 1st house this year. Jupiter tends to expand your efforts and brings good fortune and positive change to the house it occupies. Jupiter shows where favor will be found from others, education, spiritual matters, learning and teaching.

    Begin new projects and activities this year. Opportunities can arrive for expansion of your career and in the weight department you can expect to expand as well. People and resources just seem to find you and you should take advantage of the circumstances. Spiritual interests will increase and an interest in education, philosophy and religion and a desire to travel will occur. One danger is an over inflated sense of self importance that can get out of hand. If there are difficult aspects to Jupiter while it is in the 1st house, there can be a "holier than thou attitude" adopted which will surely get you into trouble.

    You will feel lucky during this year and promotions can have your name on them. Relationships are very favorable and you will find it an appropriate time to approach people for favors. This is a wonderful year to become a leader or famous in some way. You will exhibit a very confident attitude which will help you overcome any adversaries. Investments and speculation should render positive results as well.

Jupiter square Saturn:

    Leave business matters alone until the end of this year, because the possibility of failure is high. You face the danger of comparing yourself to others and feel insecure and perhaps angry about your failure and their success. You might notice some inflammations in the joints or arthritis or suffer some discomforts from water on the knees this year. Progress can very easily come to a screeching halt in any area of life this year, and on any project. If you are involved in large projects requiring the help or support of others, then you can expect to be tested on the validity of the project through the people that you associate with. I know that you won't want to hear it but PATIENCE is the key.

    When considering any actions, let this influence pass first and then take a look at it again. You will be a very restless spirit who will want to be on the move, but that movement is blocked and so the tension builds, especially if you are waiting for something to happen.

    Traditional methods for handling money won't work now, and the differences between religious and spiritual issues can arise and you may have difficulty sorting through the differences in the two. This is a time when we want to expand ( Jupiter) but we are frustrated (Saturn) and held back. This is a poor time for business and business expansion and there are bound to be legal difficulties and red tape to deal with. A financial crisis is possible at this time and this is a poor time to do any publishing or travel.

    This is a poor time for legal issues, lawsuits, education, publishing, travel and love relationships, instead get back to the basics of life.

    Money can be tough to come by this year and don't look for rewards to come for work done until after this influence ends. Needless to say you will be very restless, longing to do something but cannot.

Jupiter Semisextile Pluto:

    Basic reforms in any area of your life will be very fortunate. Large scale renovations can take place successfully this year, and make sure to use the power that accompanies it for positive purposes, both for others and yourself.

    Positive changes can be undertaken in your life making this is an excellent time for your business and career. People in authority can help you, and is a fortunate time to ask for their help. This is a lucky influence when benefits can come through joint finances. Your spouse can render support financially to help you through some difficult times.

    This is a favorable time for keeping your need to control or hold power over others under control. Outdoor activities, adventures and travel are excellent outlets for this energy. When selecting a friend or new mate, choose someone who shares the same mutual interests as you, perhaps this is when you will find such a person. There will be a strong urge to be noticed and appreciated by others as well.

    If you are planning any home improvements, this year is the time to initiate it and any travel done will be for business instead of pleasure. There can be an increased understanding of the universe and its workings and you may start a course in Metaphysical study.

Jupiter trine Node:

    There will be a noticeable increase in social contacts with friends and you will both look forward to and enjoy their company. Harmony in traditional educational, religious and social beliefs exists.

Jupiter square MC:

    MISUNDERSTANDINGS

    You may be so wrapped up in your beliefs that you cannot make any changes in your life and you will avoid or shun any social opportunities that arise.

    Avoid any unnecessary expenditures and new debts that can take its toll later. Trying to finish projects can seem impossible to do and you will find that you have the ambition to work very hard and significant achievement is possible if you keep your cool. The ego doesn't need any help but it gets a boost anyway this year and you may want to expand professionally but over-expansion is the danger.

    Business and finances won't do very well now, and new business ventures should not be started. Cooperation will not be easy to find from friends, the boss, government agencies or people who can have an influence on your life. Be careful not to take on too much work, it can overwhelm you especially now. Disagreements with your in-laws, social circles, colleges, schools and teachers can be expected.




Saturn

The placement of Saturn in the solar return chart determines where you will encounter obstacles, difficult lessons, and where discipline will be needed in your life during the coming year.


Solar Return Saturn in 10th house:

    Saturn is in your 10th house this year. The purpose of the planet Saturn is to teach us and help us to mature in the houses associated with Saturn. The stronger we resist these changes, the stronger the effects will be felt until we submit to a more structured way of life.  Saturn brings with it obligation, commitment, responsibility and a more serious demeanor. An increase in work, self control and discipline, as well as disappointment and delays, matters from the past returning, people in authority or government agencies.

    If you have always wanted to be a leader somehow, this year is an auspicious time to take charge but remember it can also be a time for disasters. Sudden changes should be expected in status and reputation and promotions and recognition as well as increased responsibilities can occur. You will be working with older people, groups or business contacts rather than new age types. If Saturn makes a difficult aspect while in the 10th house, then difficulties with authority figures, governmental agencies, parents and employers can be encountered.

Saturn trine Pluto:

    Get rid of old habits which are standing in the way of your relationships this year. Relationships will be very intense, making new commitments to make it last. An actual marriage can take place under this influence.

    Promotions are possible and the backing and support of friends and family may come with this added positive influence.

    Focus your attention and energy on goals, as this is a perfect time to discover what you don't need in your life to survive. Look around at all of those luxuries that are weighing down your mind and soul. You have the will power will get you through the toughest of times, as this is a truly spiritual time.

    This is an excellent time for legal matters, scientific pursuits, mathematics, technical matters, seeing your doctor for a checkup and consulting your attorney. Put more harmony in your life!

Saturn Quincunx Node:

    Health matters can be somewhat vulnerable through constipation, lessened bowel movements or constrictions in the throat or throat muscles.

    Gloom, depression and sadness can easily occur this year, so stop blaming others for your failures and inability to keep a long lasting friendship or relationship going.

Saturn conjunction MC:

    A time of increased responsibility and paying attention to your duties has arrived. Your ambition for status and security will be high and fame and recognition can come for work done both positive and negative.

    New starts in your career can take place this year, and avoid taking the shortcut in anything that you do.




Uranus, Neptune and Pluto

The placement of the 3 outer planets in the solar return chart indicates areas in your life that are likely to take surprising twists and turns, where idealism and illusion may enter your life, or where compulsive or extreme situations may arise in your life during the coming year.


Solar Return Uranus in 4th house:

    Uranus is in your 4th house this year. Uranus is the planet that causes us to make changes of the sudden and electric kind in our lives with very little regard as to whether we want to or not.  Where matters are apt to be unpredictable, where we separate ourselves from our environment as well as attractions to the new and untried. Original ideas, awakening to new concepts and unconventional behavior highlight Uranus in the houses.

    Old hang ups can arise to be dealt with creating some discord and separations and unexpected and sudden changes occur in the domestic scene. A change of residence is possible somewhere with the placement of Uranus here, or you may decide to make much needed repairs. If Uranus makes a difficult aspect while in the 4th house, home projects will not do well, moves that were planned will not go well if at all and business activities centered around the home will not do well.

Uranus trine Asc.:

    There can be a strong attraction to someone in your life who is very unconventional and somewhat a rebel and they will have very strong Aquarian qualities. You will find that there is also an increase in your enjoyment while showing affection to others. There will be nothing "dull" about you during this year.

    Increased freedom is needed in relationships if they are to survive and new interests, hobbies or studies will be sought.

    You will be have a fascination or attraction to technical or scientific areas, while being exhibiting a very impulsive and nervous constitution needs to be satisfied.

    Sudden contacts can bring wonderful opportunities to you, and travel is favored as well.

    Relationships that start under this influence may very well cease at the end of this year, granted it was electric and wonderful, but this time period does not support a long lasting one.

    Unexpected partnerships in business can develop as well, but wait until after this year is over to see if it will be a strong one.

Solar Return Neptune in 3rd house:

    Neptune is in your 3rd house this year. Neptune is the Grand Master of illusion, deception, imagination and inspiration, perhaps all at the same time. Psychic and intuitive aspects can emerge from our personalities either consciously or subconsciously and new concepts that are somewhat poetic, compassionate and humanitarian can easily arise. As long as we remain realistic in our approach to life, we shouldn't encounter too many lessons though. Expect Neptune to put you through many changes of perceptions and your views or reality will be altered several times as well. Neptune is where you are vulnerable, gullible, and where mis-information, false hopes but spiritual enlightenment can be found.

    Communications with kin, neighbors and close family members can become confusing and perhaps somewhat deceptive this year, so speak precisely and realistically as possible under this cloud of confusion. If Neptune makes a difficult aspect while in the 3rd house, dishonesty can be employed in speaking and thinking can become very foggy. Appointments can be missed altogether and communications with you can be very confusing.

Neptune square Asc.:

    Partners can easily deceive partners this year, so rely more on your intuition about others. You will find others fudging the truth in a very convincing way and there will be an increased craving for stimulants like drugs, alcohol or caffeine.

    Be careful in consulting others for advice as well, as they may not have your interests at heart. Information received may be untrue from doctors, lawyers and counselors as they may conceal matters from you.

    Once you can unmask the illusion that surrounds your relationship and you can recognize it for what it really is you can avoid a deceptive and unsatisfactory experience. Do not enter into any marriage or business commitments because they are not what they "seem" to be. Unfortunately there should be a sign on you that says "please use me, I can use the abuse!"

    You are way too trusting, easily influenced and setting yourself up for financial and business losses. People who are emotionally or mentally troubled will find you like a radio antenna set to your frequency who will "dump" all of their troubles on you. Let your imagination be just that this year and put no importance on it. Perhaps what this year is showing you is yourself in a past life and what you have done to others. This year it is your turn and you have the same vulnerability they did.

Neptune opposition MC:

    Confusion in life direction can easily occur this year. You may be feeling somewhat inadequate in some area of your life. It will be very difficult to see what other people want from you in relationships.

    A negative side to this influence is using underhanded methods in getting what you want. If you haven't learned it yet, these actions always backfire and come back to haunt you. Those wrong doings that you do or contemplate are in danger of being exposed.

    Being deceived or deceiving others is another side effect of this influence and deceptions always blow up in your face! The profession becomes more important to you, to the detriment of domestic responsibilities.

    Unpleasant childhood memories can come back to haunt you this year, so deal with them instead of letting them run your life. You may experience some gas, water or oil leaks somewhere in the home or just in general.

Solar Return Pluto in 2nd house:

    Pluto is in your 2nd  house this year. Pluto is the master of digging down beneath the surface of who you are and bring some very powerful yet subtle changes into your life. Pluto is where your OBSESSIONS can be found this year, where your personal "power" can be found, major changes in life, and changes in life with regard to groups of people.

    Drastic changes can take place with your material possessions and income. If you allow status or material matters to hold power over you there can be losses. If Pluto makes a difficult aspect while in the 2nd house, you may attempt underhanded methods to make money or be subjected to dishonest people yourself.

Pluto square Node:

    Do not use this time for planning retaliations against people who have wronged you, even though it will be strong, so resist the temptation. Be careful of USING people for your own purposes as well.

    Associations can become very burdensome this year and tension and intolerance for others can lead to unwise choices. Aspirations for power can lead to problems or frustrations.

Pluto trine MC:

    Gradual changes are taking place that forces you to move in new directions and power may be granted to you over others in personal or professional life. Be careful what you do with it. Expect people to be drawn to you, fascinated by that energy and power.

     The following influences are based on the relationship of the solar return to the natal chart. These influences tend to bring about changes in attitudes and your perspective on life.


Natal 4th on solar Asc:

    With your Natal 4th house on the Solar Ascendant, matters regarding living together or living arrangements will be a focus in your life. Do it yourself projects, sex in the environment and caring for or nurturing others will be issues that you face this year.

Natal Asc in solar 9th house:

     With your Natal Ascendant now in the Solar 9th house, learning about your own identity will be a very  important part of your life now. You will encounter the things that help you discover your place as an individual in the greater scheme of things.

Most importantly, it is where you as an individual fit this year.
