of 2008 # 1
The first
aspect of this year that I will mention is a
Trine of the planets Jupiter and Saturn. It
is exact on the 21st of January and it will
repeat three times this year. You may use
its energy for the next few weeks. These
planets will connect with one another from
the earth signs of Virgo and Capricorn. This
is a positive aspect that can lead to growth
and maturity. Here's what it means for your
sign.
Capricorn Sun sign or Ascendant --
the Trine occurs from your first house of
personal expression (Jupiter) and the ninth
house of expanded awareness (Saturn). Do not
allow your need to be right all the time to
hold you back from experimentation. If you
have prepared your mind well and understand
the workings of society, you can take
positive steps to express yourself with more
enthusiasm. If you believe in what you are
expressing, you will be able to sell your
ideas and expand your influence.
Aquarius Sun sign or Ascendant --
the Trine occurs from the 12th house of
personal limitation and spiritual integrity
(Jupiter) and the eighth house of shared
resources (Saturn). You have an enormous
capacity for self discipline at this time
that can be used to develop a practical
approach to partnerships and business. Your
hard work, that you have done for many
years, may pay out in financial rewards
allowing you to acquire the things you value
most. Don't gamble unless you know it's a
sure thing.
Pisces Sun sign or Ascendant --
the Trine occurs from the 11th house of
group associations and personal hopes
(Jupiter) and the seventh house of
relationships, coming before the public and
legal issues (Saturn). This is an important
time few to know where you stand in your
relationships both personal and
professional. Have the people who are
closest to you helped to achieve the things
you want to achieve or have they held your
back. If they have held you back, it may be
time to find some new people to associate
with. Make sure you're using your abilities
to help others not just yourself.
Aries Sun sign or Ascendant -- the
Trine occurs from the 10th house of career
or social position (Jupiter) and the sixth
house of work, service and health. You must
be extremely efficient in any work
activities and you must be willing to adjust
to new conditions. If you are frustrated or
having a difficult time, you may have to
change what you are doing. But if you are
doing the right thing for your being this
can be a time of promotion and reward. Work
hard but work smart and make needed changes.
Taurus Sun sign or Ascendant --
the Trine occurs from the ninth house of
expanded awareness and higher aspirations
(Jupiter) and the fifth house of personal
creativity, romance and offspring (Saturn).
Saturn always has a practical reason for
doing anything. In this case you must bring
discipline to your creative activities and
make wise decisions concerning romance or
the needs of children. You may also find
that the greatest pleasures available to you
come from the realm of mind. Expand your
horizons through education, travel and
ambition.
Gemini Sun sign or Ascendant --
the Trine occurs from the eighth house of
group resources and business prosperity
(Jupiter) and the fourth house of home,
family, tradition and emotional foundations
(Saturn). You may feel a natural enthusiasm
for growth and prosperity by joining
together with like-minded individuals to
build a new future. This is all well and
good if you remember that to have a positive
future you must have a substantial
foundation to stand on. Do not take your
home or family for granted and remember to
nurture not only the people you love but
also your inner self.
Cancer Sun sign or Ascendant --
the Trine occurs from the seventh house of
relationships, coming before the public and
legal issues (Jupiter) and the third house
of mental analysis and communication
(Saturn). This is a time to be very careful
concerning the way you think about life and
understanding how your surroundings have
formed your thoughts. It's okay to be
serious when you have to be but if you're
going to have a good relationship, you most
also develop optimism and kindness. When you
reach out into the world to touch others, do
so with kindness, love and your heart.
Leo Sun sign or Ascendant -- the
Trine occurs from the sixth house of work,
service and health (Jupiter) and the second
house of personal resources, material
possessions and investments (Saturn). If you
are going to begin a work project, you must
be willing to discipline yourself and focus
on what needs to be done. If you're going to
play around, forget it. This is a time for
opportunity and a time for change. But you
must have a serious purpose or reason why
you are going to expend the energy that will
be needed for success. Remember time is
money.
Virgo Sun sign or Ascendant -- the
Trine occurs from the fifth house of
personal creativity, romance and offspring
(Jupiter) and the first house of personal
expression and appearance (Saturn). There is
no question that you are conservative and
maybe even too picky for your own good. This
would be a good time to blend your
conservative and limited expression with a
little bit more enthusiasm, color and flair.
The world is not black-and-white. There are
many colors and many different types of
expression that can lift you up and allow
you to stand out in a crowd. And you can do
all this on your road to success.
Libra Sun sign or Ascendant -- the
Trine occurs from the fourth house of home,
family, tradition and emotional foundations
(Jupiter) and the 12th house of personal
limitation and spiritual integrity (Saturn).
This is an extremely important time for you
to go inside of yourself and work on the
value of your soul in relation to the power
of your emotions. If there are personal
fears that have held you back, it is time to
confront them, so you can heal them and
leave them behind. You may appear calm on
the surface, but there is a great depth in
your being and sensitivity to your emotions
that needs to be used in a positive fashion.
Scorpio Sun sign or Ascendant --
the Trine occurs from the third house of
mental analysis and communication (Jupiter)
and the 11th house of group associations and
personal wishes (Saturn). You instinctively
know that it takes organization and
discipline to properly use power. Now is the
time to use the strength of your mind to
accomplish needed tasks. You may be able to
move people and organizations into a much
more productive path. Just remember that you
may need to be gentle when you are
communicating to some of the people around
you. A heavy hand is not needed.
Sagittarius Sun sign or Ascendant
-- the Trine occurs from the second house of
personal resources, material possessions and
investments (Jupiter) and the 10th house of
career and social position. This is an
excellent time to make your career pay off
so that you may be able to afford the things
that you value. Just remember this, there
may be more need for resources in the future
so don't spend unwisely in the present. You
do have discipline, you do have insight and
you do have intuition. Use these talents to
take you to a more successful place in the
future.
Best Days
of 2007 # 12
Jupiter
conjuncts Pluto - this is a major aspects
that can have a long term effect in your
life. It occurs on December 11 but it will
last for an extended period of time. Below
are the interpretations for each sign.
Jupiter Pluto for
Sagittarius - The first house represents
how we present ourselves to the world or how
we move outward into our surroundings. This
Transit/Conjunction marks a time of change
in your personal expression and projection.
Optimism and self-confidence will be
important to move forward in life and
experience new opportunities. This can
happen in business or social areas. Do not
overindulge or be too self involved for the
real opportunities in life come as you are
willing to share your good fortune. You may
find travel and adventure beckoning as well
as new understanding, so study philosophy or
spirituality. Don't try to be what you are
not. Be careful with diet, get plenty of
exercise, and control your little ego!
Jupiter Pluto for Capricorn - The
twelfth house deals with inner dimensions.
Pay attention to your inner prompting - you
may gain great dividends later on. Develop
an understanding of your psychological,
psychic and spiritual self. Be compassionate
of others but also of yourself. Do you
believe in random events? What does the Law
of Karma, "as you sow, so you reap" mean to
you? You may find great understanding
through quiet time, prayer, meditation,
occult studies and Astrology. Find a teacher
who can act as a spiritual guide. Work
behind the scenes on yourself, or for your
church or community as a volunteer in
schools, hospitals or other places of need.
As you open your heart, your heart will be
filled. Use your intuition and imagination
to see yourself in a better world. Dreams
bolstered by action and belief can come
true.
Jupiter Pluto for Aquarius - The
eleventh house deals with groups,
organizations and social contacts. Try to
realize your personal humanitarian ideals by
doing unto others what you would want to
experience yourself. Use power or prestige
gained in career in a positive manner. It is
also a good time to join like minded people
in the pursuit of something that transcends
the importance of your little hopes. Give
and receive kindness, have hopes and dreams
fulfilled, and grow to understand the power
of wishes. One person can only effect
another but like the ripple caused in a
still pond, a group of people can have a
lasting effect on their culture and the
whole world. Make change happen with
compassion.
Jupiter Pluto for Pisces - The tenth
house deals with your career or social
position. A heightened sense of ambition and
the ability to approach powerful people can
help you. How would you fit in or try to
change established cultural and social
roles. You may find opportunities in
government, law, educational institutions,
foreign trade, teaching or publishing.
Accept new challenges and opportunities they
may pave the way for a brighter future.
Build your reputation through cooperation
and responsibility. Beware arrogance and
manipulation so use power with insight.
Travel and perhaps an increase in pay may be
yours.
Jupiter Pluto for Aries - The ninth
house Jupiter Pluto transit hails an
interesting and exciting time. Jupiter rules
this house and his influence is usually
beneficial and expansive. The trouble here
may be too much. Your perspective may open
up, you may travel to distant shores, and
you may find new ideas, philosophies and
thought systems attractive and compelling.
Teacher others, if you have prepared
yourself, or pursue classes and learning in
abstract subject areas such as religion,
metaphysics and the occult. What is your
favorite peeve with the world? Understand
why things work the way they do and then try
to change them if you find them lacking. But
don’t use force! Study Plato's Apology and
the Republic so you may understand the
Socratic dictum on Wisdom. Think about this,
people have changed little in thousands of
years.
Jupiter Pluto for Taurus - The eighth
house represents renewal and rebirth, the
hallmarks of Pluto. You may gain through
inheritance, business activities, publishing
or higher education. Invest in real estate
or study a new area of interest in depth.
You may feel that you have come back to life
or life has become more exciting. This may
be due to a new attitude. Many of
limitations have been imposed by others or
by yourself - free yourself from them. Be
careful romance for your sensuality may be
increased. On a higher level this is a good
time to open yourself to psychic and
spiritual development and you may find that
you healing abilities. Remember this is a
time of death for the old (which sometimes
is painful) and a rebirth of inner
potential.
Jupiter Pluto for Gemini - The
seventh house presents opportunities for the
end or improvement in the area of
relationships, dealing with partners or with
the general public. Cooperation is the key
to help you get what you need and want. You
may find it easier to express the real you.
Act, perform in a circus or go on TV. Just
remember Jupiter expands and Pluto can
exaggerate so be careful when interacting
with others on a professional and personal
level. New and unusual social opportunities
can change your life for better or worse, so
choose carefully. What you start here with
other people can have a great effect on you.
Grow in your friendships; grow in your
relationships; and you will grow in power
and influence.
Jupiter Pluto for Cancer - The sixth
house usually deals with work and health
issues. So you should focus your energy on
your work skills, fulfilling obligations,
and self improvement. More responsibility
may come your way and you may have to put
your nose to the grindstone. In the long run
this can mean a reward, bonus or promotion,
You may also feel deeply satisfied. You may
find challenging conditions are eased or you
may leave for a better job. Travel and
education can help you improve your
position. This may also increase your
interest in diet and health and you may
develop an interest in natural or spiritual
healing. This is a good time to purge
yourself of bad habits and begin new ones.
Work hard, take good care of yourself, and
improve the quality of your life.
Jupiter Pluto for Leo - The fifth
house can open you to new experience for
self expression. You may feel more dynamic
and courageous and you have the ability to
be open and direct with others without
needing to be ego protective. Your social
life should pick up, but remember this
doesn't represent carte blanc, so maintain
selectivity and common sense. This energy
does have its dangers. Creative can increase
and you may find you work is given the
opportunity to come before a larger
audience. Broaden your understanding of life
through studying religion, philosophy or
world history. You may work with children or
find yourself in a teaching situation. If
all this sounds too good remember not to
take foolish gambles in love, with money or
with overindulgence. Use common sense.
Jupiter Pluto for Virgo - Fourth
house issues are highlighted so it’s the
perfect time to pursue and enrich your inner
self. This house represent home, family and
personal emotional foundations. Jupiter is
accidently dignified here so you should
improve these areas of your life. You might
find the emotional support you need right at
home. This is a great time to improve or
acquire property; to put down or firmly
establish your roots; and to develop a real
sense of belonging. Your personal confidence
can be at an all time high any therapy
undertaken at this time should show positive
results. Take time to deepen your family and
personal values; develop any latent psychic
or spiritual gifts you might have; and
enhance your nurturing or healing abilities.
Take a long trip to the ocean or enjoy the
good life as you see it.
Jupiter Pluto for Libra - The third
house presents opportunities to broaden or
in this case deepen your intellectual
abilities. Reach out into your environment
to gain more experience and expand your
consciousness. Make new contacts, study,
write, and formulate your beliefs. You may
increase your mental abilities through
meditation or education and you would be
wise to take some time out for spiritual
development. The purpose of your experiences
is to increase the power of your perceptions
and deepen the understanding of your mind.
You may change your attitude toward life and
form completely new thought patterns. If
there was ever a good time to communicate
and illustrate your ideas this is it. Remove
restrictive fears from your mind, understand
how vivid life can be, and have fun.
Jupiter Pluto for Scorpio - The
second house presents opportunities for
expansion or contraction. This can be on the
material level or it can be in your personal
talents. What is really important at this
time is your sense of values. What is it
that is most important to you? Your ideas...
your possessions... etc? How do you use your
resources to get what you really want? You
may be optimistic in business, you resources
can increase and you may benefit from
generosity. You may make money through
banking, the law, sports, higher education,
foreign business, religion, and travel. You
should invest with wisdom and a conservative
eye or you can lose big. Do you own your
possessions or do they own you? Manage
things carefully and you will gain more
freedom - perhaps this is what you truly
want. Take advantage of your advantages.
# 11
Both Mars and Uranus change direction
this month but Uranus may have the most
lasting effect. His course had been
retrograde since June 23rd taking care of
unfinished business. Now he will begin his
direct motion on November 24th which should
bring some unexpected and sudden changes
over the next few months. Here’s what you
can expect for your sign. (Interpretation
based on sun sign as the Ascendant)
Aries - twelfth house - When Uranus
transits the twelfth house expect the
unexpected in your dream and spiritual life.
The subconscious, super-conscious and
spiritual realms will be energized. You may
have uncomfortable feelings that you really
don’t understand but you should not push
them blindly aside. These experiences deal
with the results of your thoughts and
actions or what may be called our fate or
Karma. Memories come up to the surface or
you may gain intuitive knowledge. Release
yourself from hidden fears and worries by
taking stock of them and looking them
squarely in the eyes to ascertain their
truth. This is a good time to open yourself
spiritually, to spend time at a retreat or
with a teacher, and to study the meaning of
the Occult and Natural Law. Look to the
light of spirit for healing and affirmation.
Taurus - eleventh house - When Uranus
transits this house you may sense or
experience inner change toward prior goals
and objectives. What once was important
changes as new possibilities appear. You may
have to lose old friends but new friends and
new potential are near. Social structures
relied upon may change. You may step up to a
leading role. This planet is at home and it
asks you to use it's energy constructively.
You may try to force social institutions to
change. You may be seen as a rebel and
institutions, like individuals will resist
change. You may find yourself a tool of the
social structure so use diplomacy and
creativity.
Gemini - tenth house - When Uranus
transits the tenth house you may experience
exciting and unpredictable change. The tenth
house represents career or social position.
Examine your real goals and objectives in
professional and social areas. You may sense
the outer world and its responsibilities are
attacking or challenging your deeper beliefs
or feelings. You may be willful or your need
for independence may butt-up against those
who have power over you. Be open to new
ideas or techniques which can lead to
unexpected opportunity. If you have
developed your talents and individuality you
may find that success seeks you out in
unusual ways. Study Astrology or other
occult sciences to help you understand the
trends that you're experiencing.
Cancer - ninth house - When Uranus
transits the ninth house your understanding
or vision of the world may change. Abstract
thought, religion, philosophy, new
discoveries or knowledge bring new
understanding. The larger world takes on new
meaning. You may find interest in the law,
higher education, religion or ideas that
bind humankind together. The false forms of
your view of success may change. Uranus is

technology may remove self limitations. You
may find wisdom in simplicity and the
ability to adjust to prevailing conditions.
L eo - eighth
house - When
Uranus transits this house expect powerful
and far reaching changes that may occur
suddenly or unexpectedly. The eighth house
deals things we share with others; that are
given to us by others; and lost by us
through others. You may open to a more
intense and intimate way of sharing with
another and have moving experiences. If
you’ve been too confined change may come.
Finances change for the better or worse or
an inheritance may come. You may develop a

spiritual experiences which you should try
to understand.

relationships, business partnerships and
dealing with the public. If you are not in a
relationship you may find there are
opportunities to pursue or be pursued by
unusual people. People who have developed a
sense of individuality, creative self
expression, or social purpose. On the
negative side you can be willful and run
into people of the same ilk. The legal
manifestations in personal or business
partnerships may become important. Control
irrational urges for freedom and destructive
willfulness but remain open to new
opportunity.
Libra - sixth house - When Uranus
transits this area sudden and unexpected
changes in the areas of your work,
employment and health may occur. So, eat
right, dress right and exercise right. Yoga,
meditation or spiritual healing help you
with stress. Use Astrology to help you
understand the changing condition of your
life. Your job changes or you need to change
the way you do your job. Computers or other
electronic gadgets, may be introduced into
your work procedures. You may have to look
for a new job. Try to remain flexible and
open to the new in what you are doing and
also in your life in general. It is not just
your reaction but the quality of your
reaction that counts. Will you grow through
and be willing to help others.
Scorpio - fifth house - When Uranus
transits this house you may be in for an
exciting time. A new urge for freedom,
independence, adventure and self expression
awakens. You may throw caution to the winds
and become experimental in your personal and
professional life. Old attitudes about love
and romance or sexual encounters may be left
behind so use your head. Think twice and use
your good judgement. On the other hand, if
you've been in a destructive or confining
relationship this may be the time to let it
go. Perhaps the best effects of this transit
come in the area of creativity, personal
expression and pleasure. Listen to your
inspiration and expand your visionary
talents.
Sagittarius - fourth house - When
Uranus transits this house you may be in for
the deepest changes in your life. Prepare
yourself for a change in your basic
attitudes and approach to life. This may be
forced on you or you become willful.
Conditions in your home and family almost
demand change or adjustment. You may move or
incorporate new technology into your home
such as a computer. Major upheavals are
really signals from deep inside that you
needed change so it would be wise to listen.
Be flexible, remove obstacles from the past,
and look at the world in a new light. There
could be great happiness just ahead. This is
a good time to develop and listen to your
intuition.
Capricorn - third house - When Uranus
transits this area of your chart you may
experience a deep and sudden change in your
approach to learning, writing,
communications, close associates and
neighbors. You may experience new ideas and
new approaches in the above areas due to a
heightened intuition and increased mental
awareness. Life may be very vivid and
stimulating. Some people may feel a bit
uncomfortable with you because even some of
your old habit patterns are changing.
Astrology, yoga, Tai-Chi and other mind-body
philosophies are helpful. The change that
occurs during this transit is one of
preparation. But remember, as we see the
world - so the world is.
Aquarius - second house - When Uranus
transits this area you may see many
fluctuations in the things you value. You
may gain or lose money and possessions
suddenly or unexpectedly. You may develop a
more detached attitude towards material
things or learn to use your talents to make
money in unusual ways. Technical,
scientific, occult or individualistic
creative talents help you move ahead. You
can see material things for what they really
are and you may re-assign their value. Grow
your individuality and creativity. Seek out
new technology or new methods of operation
to help you keep up with the pace.
Pisces - first house - When Uranus
transits this house you may be in for the
most exciting period of your life. Most of
us are afraid of change and seek stability
and security. But the future is calling.
What is your true potential. The experience
of this time period ultimately come from
within. Learn about your individuality,
distinctness and potential. Uranus brings
freedom but it may also increase your
willfulness and erratic actions. You need a
new awareness. Create a new image, start a
new life style or begin a business project
that can change your life. Study Astrology,
Metaphysics or the Psychic.
Saturn Conjunct Venus
This month the highlight is a conjunction
(two planets in the same place) of Venus and
Saturn that takes place at 4 degrees 51
minutes in the earth sign Virgo over the
weekend of Oct 13 - 14th. Saturn is somewhat
more sympathetic in an earth sign but Venus
is not too happy in this somewhat picky
sign. How can use this energy? See the
interpretations below.
Here’s the Venus - Saturn conjunctions
effect. It is interpreted using your Sun
sign as the Ascendant.
Virgo or (first house) Ascendant - It
is time to improve your self image, act
carefully and express harmony into the
world. This is the house of personal
projection. Take time to renew your energy
and create new personal foundations. There
is a deeper you inside, and you can express
it with gentle confidence. Grow in depth not
in breath and wear earthy colors to
highlight the naturally healthy glow of your
skin.
Leo or second house - This house
represents personal resources. This includes
things, money and what you value. You may
also think about personal talents and
physical energy. Venus rules this house so
it is important that you understand your
values and deepen them. Try to understand
what you can do to increase the value of
yourself to yourself. Don’t buy that new
outfit, unless you don’t need it or credit
card bills can mount up. Practical beauty,
economy and security are important.
Cancer or third house - This house of
the mind and everyday environment asks you
to improve your surroundings and
understanding of the people close to you. Do
you put on a happy face or do you grin and
bear it. What could you learn more deeply to
be a more effective person. The old saying
is honey will attract more than vinegar and
you may want to practice that idiom now.
Assimilate knowledge, spread sunshine and
adjust to the needs of the moment.
Gemini or fourth house - This house
deals with home, family heritage and your
emotional roots? Is there some friction in
the family that needs healing? Are there
some repairs needed in the basic foundation
of your home? These are some of the obvious
issues you can address at this time. Clean
up, fix up and make your life easier. That
will take make some of the emotional
challenges easier also. You may feel the
blessings of unity in your home and family.
Taurus or fifth house - This house
deals with your approach to creativity,
personal expression and romance. You may
have an opportunity to deepen a relationship
or restore some depth in an ongoing love
affair. Ideas should be taken seriously, if
they pass the test of practicality.
Children’s needs may be emphasized so try to
give them the time they need. You must
express deeply through your love and
creativity
Aries or sixth house - Health, work
and energy are highlighted in this house. So
examine the demands of your job and see if
there isn’t a more effective and efficient
manner to discharge your duties. You may
need a bit of faith if there is a crisis in
your life but your reaction can build
strength. Discrimination may be necessary to
decide what is important and what is not.
Serve your fellow beings.
Pisces or seventh house - This is the
house of marriage, personal relationships,
business partners and social acceptance. If
you want to fit in you need to have a
purpose that serves the social norm. If
you’re having problems in a relationship,
its time to work it out. Fear and
selfishness will not work. And talking about
work, when you feel you’re bringing
something good to the table you’ll feel
great satisfaction. This is a seriously
romantic time.
Aquarius or eighth house - This house
deals with the way you share energy and
resources with others. So here’s the
question that needs to be answered. What
have you given and what have you received
from others? There can be great intensity at
this time or coolness which can destroy
intimacy. Even sex has its practical purpose
of sharing and releasing energy. Try to
create a balance of energy when dealing with
shared resources and listen to your deeper
intuition with great clarity.
Capricorn or ninth house - This house
incorporates the sharing of ideas and how
religion and philosophy bring us together or
tare us apart. If you know where you are
going and how you fit in you may be very
ambitious at this time. If you do not,
control yourself or you may cause
disagreements. What you know or learn at
this time can lead you to power but it must
be in service to others. Stay on the side of
the law and use your uncommon - common
sense.
Sagittarius or tenth house - Saturn
is at home in this house of ambition, career
and social standing. You may be standing
near the top or you may be ready to slide to
the bottom. Here’s the measure of success.
What have you done to serve society that
also fit into your natural ambition or need
for success and recognition. If you have
blended these needs together, if you have
been productive in your own way, you may
find recognition and success comes your way.
Be graceful and thankful and share your
achievements with others.
Scorpio or eleventh house - This
house deals with hopes, wishes and dreams
but beyond that what you can bring to life
through your associations or power you have
gained. You must take a practical and
creative approach to your goals. You must
understand your limitations and abilities.
Use your influence quietly and for the good
of others - especially women. Have you
experienced freedom and equality? Make sure
they are available to all.
Libra or twelfth house - This is the
house of the soul, spirituality and hidden
things. This is a good time for meditation
and therapy. If you are confined or limited
reach out for help. You may also open your
heart to those in need. The spiritually
awakened will recognize this time as an
opportunity for change and the doing of good
works. The past should be used as a guide to
the future. You have an opportunity to grow
spiritually.
