2008 Horoscope Sagittarius

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) – 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius: 

2008: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

2008 Overview. A year-long trend towards greater abundance of personal income is in your forecast, dear Sagittarius. You could never be defined as a materialistic person, but your attention this year is certainly on the more material, physical, and practical areas of your life. At the root of this focus is the desire for increased freedom, and you instinctively feel that taking care of your practical affairs will help you to eventually enjoy more freedom of movement. In 2008, you have especially strong feelings about your career, reputation, income, and possessions. Increased responsibilities in general and in your career figure, and are actually important for your development. While there are no shortcuts or totally lucky breaks in your career this year, you are likely to derive much satisfaction from your achievements that come from your hard work. You are noticed and recognized for your natural talents on the job, and you could be busy re-investing money into your career. Some of you will be making money from esoteric endeavors or through work behind the scenes. Learning and education are areas of your life that undergo the most change. Contentment, rather than changefulness, figures in the love department this year. Love finds you most easily in April and from mid-November to the end of the year.

2008 Details. Jupiter, the planet of abundance, graces your second house this year. During this period, you are likely to see benefits to your earning power and value system. Jupiter in this part of your chart should bring a profitable and productive period if you avoid the pitfalls of overspending, of course! You are likely to feel more confident and enthusiastic about your ability to earn a living, and you may choose to develop your talents in order to boost your earning power. Your income is likely to increase, and there may be an opportunity to improve your future financial situation. However, you may also be just as inclined to splurge on yourself, plumping up your nest or your store of personal possessions. Monetary problems from the past may clear up during this period. You can add to your possessions, and a major purchase or sale is very possible. A significant gift or bonus may come your way. This is a good time to go for a raise, apply for a loan, or take part in various dealings with financial institutions. You may need to curb an inclination to overspend–feeling good could bring you to the stores as you temporarily forget about the future! These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar second, from January through the first week of May, and then from the second week of September through December. The very best times occur when direct Jupiter trines Saturn in January, September and November.

Saturn continues to transit your solar tenth house this year. This cycle represents a time in your life when you build a secure foundation in your professional and/or most public life. Your standing in society comes under Saturn’s scrutiny. You have found yourself in the spotlight, and what it is exactly that you have been building has come up for inspection. Some of you find yourself receiving recognition and career “rewards” at this time. If this transit occurs in early adulthood, it is a time when you truly begin to face your duties as a career person. Although the tenth house is a house of ambition, you do not focus on where you are going as much as you focus on where you stand. Saturn’s transit of the tenth house is an eye-opening one—a time when you are working hard, taking on your fair share of duties and responsibilities, and either reaping some of the rewards of your hard work or facing the consequences of poor choices. You become aware of what you have and haven’t accomplished to date. You are now treated to a realistic look at what you have built and achieved. You no longer view your place in the world, your career, and your reputation with rose-colored glasses. At times you may feel exposed, publicly scrutinized, or under fire in your career. If this discomfort is great, it is only due to the fact that you may have been holding onto a false image of yourself.

Until August, Saturn squares your Sun (or Ascendant). You‘ll be working hard at disciplining yourself in the first half of 2008, as many of you began to do in the last few months of 2007. As you face obstacles to your goals, you begin to see the tools with which you have to overcome them. A dose of realism may seem forced upon you from time to time during this period, but your efforts to measure up to expectations can ultimately increase your confidence in your ability to be responsible for yourself. You are likely to have new or increased responsibilities this year, and it might take some time to get adjusted to them. The need to re-structure and re-organize your life will become glaringly apparent. Much can be accomplished during this cycle. Although you may not see immediate results for your efforts, important groundwork can be laid for the future.

Saturn teaches us about the value of moderation and caution. Perhaps the best way to “handle” hard Saturn transits is to avoid fighting these lessons. Accept that, at this time in your life, things may move at a slower speed (even a snail’s pace). Saturn wants you to work hard, put your energies into practical, useful, and meaningful projects, and to live in the “here and now”. This period in your life is a time for building a solid foundation. Understand that moderation right now is necessary for your spiritual growth and your physical body as well. Avoid blaming others for where you are at now–doing this will only lead to feelings of melancholy and anger. Know that this period in your life, while temporary, is a time for learning about your personal limits as well as your inner strength. Carry these lessons as you move beyond this phase, because how you handle your life now will make all the difference the next time (7 years from now) Saturn makes a hard aspect to your Sun.

Positive connections made from your second house to both the fourth and tenth houses this year suggest some material benefits coming from your career as well as real estate or family. Alternatively, you may have more resources to invest into your career or business, as well as into your home and property. You may find that you are more able to earn a living from what you love doing this year. Your public image is quite important to you in 2008. Being in a position of responsibility or authority is something you place a high value on.

The influences of Uranus and Neptune are similar to last year. Your home life may continue to be in a state of flux this year. It’s possible that you move house this year, but even if you don’t, there could be some disruptions to your domestic routine or erratic elements on the home front that you need to deal with. Neptune continues to transit your third house, as it has been doing for a number of years. During this cycle, you have been learning to rely on your intuition. You may have had some problems arising from your inattention to details, practical matters, and facts and figures. Others may have found you less reliable in terms of making appointments on time or remembering them at all! Some challenges putting your thoughts into words likely leads to a stronger appreciation for such things as musical lyrics, poetry, and other art forms that experiment with modes of expression. This year, you are likely to discover more imaginative means of expressing yourself.

With your ruler, Jupiter, in Capricorn this year, you are more conservative and goal-oriented in general, and certainly less inclined to throw caution to the wind. Practical matters are far more important to you in 2008, and feeling secure, safe, and protected is a driving force.

Eclipses mostly activate your third and ninth houses this year. Issues surrounding learning and sharing knowledge will come to the fore in 2008. Your attention to your immediate environment, and branching out and beyond it, comes into play. Circumstances “conspire” in such a way that you need to become more active in your immediate environment (neighborhood, with siblings/relatives, etc.), and/or to learn and communicate facts that fuel your opinions. As well, you will be learning to expand your horizons, either through contact with people from an entirely different background than yours, travel, or higher learning. Your personal philosophy will be changing, and eclipses this year give you a push towards adopting beliefs that truly work for you in the real world. Other possible issues stimulated include transportation and mobility (for example, some may be learning to depend on others for getting from point A to point B, and others may be learning to take charge of their own mobility), running errands and tending to your daily life effectively, and learning about your need for self-expression through adventure.

Some key periods in 2008 for you: From November 16-30, you have tremendous energy at your disposal. Life picks up pace considerably, and you feel like you can move mountains…and you probably can! This is the time to go after what you want. The best times for magnetizing what (and who) you want into your life are January 1-7, April 6-14, and October 18-27. Your strongest financial periods in 2008 occur from January 24-February 2, November 12-21, and December 21-31. Energy for making money is strongest December 27-31.

For Sagittarians born from December 11-13 and those born with a Sagittarius Ascendant from 18-20 degrees, Uranus squares your Sun this year. This could stimulate you to make changes that have long been overdue. For example, you might break free from limiting or frustrating circumstances. Your life speeds up, and decision-making can be very hasty now. You definitely feel the need for action this year, but if you don’t know where you’re headed, you might take the wrong turn. Unexpected changes in plans or events can test your patience, and you could feel a bit out of control at times. However, events could stimulate you to try new approaches and they certainly act to cut boredom. Your creativity is stimulated this year, but so is your excitability and your need for freedom. You are likely to be more outspoken than usual, perhaps even rebellious. Letting go of old family conditioning is a theme this year.

Contentment, rather than changefulness, figures in the love department this year. Love finds you most easily in April and from mid-November to the end of the year.

2008 Details. Jupiter, the planet of abundance, graces your second house this year from March forward. During this period, you are likely to see benefits to your earning power and value system. Jupiter in this part of your chart should bring a profitable and productive period if you avoid the pitfalls of overspending, of course! You are likely to feel more confident and enthusiastic about your ability to earn a living, and you may choose to develop your talents in order to boost your earning power. Your income is likely to increase, and there may be an opportunity to improve your future financial situation. However, you may also be just as inclined to splurge on yourself, plumping up your nest or your store of personal possessions. Monetary problems from the past may clear up during this period. You can add to your possessions, and a major purchase or sale is very possible. A significant gift or bonus may come your way. This is a good time to go for a raise, apply for a loan, or take part in various dealings with financial institutions. You may need to curb an inclination to overspend–feeling good could bring you to the stores as you temporarily forget about the future! These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar second, from the last week of March through the first week of May, and then from the second week of September through December. The very best times occur when direct Jupiter trines Saturn in September and November.

Saturn continues to transit your solar ninth house until November. This period in your life is generally dedicated to self-improvement. You are developing your ideals and your commitments. Ideals and spiritual goals that you may have taken for granted or worked with for many years seem superficial or not particularly useful to you now. You come face to face with your self-defeating attitudes during this period of time. The ninth house is a fire house, and it has much to do with our outlook, our sense of adventure, and our confidence. It also is associated with our faith, hope, and vision. Although its attachment to such things as higher learning and travel might mean that a Saturn transit to this house will affect these things, for most of you, it is more about taking a closer look at, and re-assessing, your attitude and confidence. The blind faith or optimism that may have carried you to date comes up for inspection. Are your belief systems sound? What do you stand for? What kind of future are you working towards, and why? These are some of the questions this transit stimulates. The spirit that drives you and motivates you to move out and beyond the everyday grind comes up for inspection. By the end of the transit in November, you will come face to face with what it is that offers you hope and optimism as well as that which fuels your drive. While you may have been questioning yourself recently, working hard at self-improvement ultimately leads to replacing your old spirit with a regenerated one. You will be one step closer to knowing where you are headed, and you will have re-built faith in yourself. Ideally, you adopt a more mature attitude towards adventure and facing the unknown. You let go of self-defeating attitudes that have been holding you back, you recognize exactly where you have been overdoing your expectations, and you find new ways to nurture faith, hope, and vision. This is truly a period of self-discovery.

Saturn transits your solar tenth house from November forward. This cycle represents a time in your life when you build a secure foundation in your professional and/or most public life. Your standing in society comes under Saturn’s scrutiny. You have found yourself in the spotlight, and what it is exactly that you have been building has come up for inspection. Some of you find yourself receiving recognition and career “rewards” at this time. If this transit occurs in early adulthood, it is a time when you truly begin to face your duties as a career person.

If this discomfort is great, it is only due to the fact that you may have been holding onto a false image of yourself.

Positive connections made from your second house to both the fourth and tenth houses this year suggest some material benefits coming from your career as well as real estate or family. Alternatively, you may have more resources to invest into your career or business, as well as into your home and property. You may find that you are more able to earn a living from what you love doing this year. Your public image is quite important to you in 2008. Being in a position of responsibility or authority is something you place a high value on.

Sagittarians born December 13-15 and those with a Sagittarius Ascendant of 20-22 degrees, are experiencing a Uranus square this year, from the solar fourth house. Your home life may be in a state of flux this year. It’s possible that you move house, but even if you don’t, there could be some disruptions to your domestic routine or erratic elements on the home front that you need to deal with. This transit could stimulate you to make changes that have long been overdue. For example, you might break free from limiting or frustrating circumstances. Your life speeds up, and decision-making can be very hasty now. You definitely feel the need for action this year, but if you don’t know where you’re headed, you might take the wrong turn. Unexpected changes in plans or events can test your patience, and you could feel a bit out of control at times.

You are likely to be more outspoken than usual, perhaps even rebellious. Letting go of old family conditioning is a theme this year.

For Sagittarians born December 13-17 and those with a Sagittarius Ascendant of 20-24 degrees, Neptune is now solidly in your third house, and it will be for many years to come. During this cycle, you learn to rely on your intuition. You may have some problems arising from your inattention to details, practical matters, and facts and figures. Others may find you less reliable in terms of making appointments on time or remembering them at all! Some challenges putting your thoughts into words likely leads to a stronger appreciation for such things as musical lyrics, poetry, and other art forms that experiment with modes of expression. This year, you are likely to discover especially imaginative means of expressing yourself. Neptune’s influence is, in fact, quite magical this year. This dreamy planet stimulates your imagination and intuition. Your words are more poetic and perhaps even inspirational. Long journeys are favored now. This is a very creative time that should not be wasted. Ideas can pay off quite well for you now.

Almost all Sagittarians are now past a powerful Pluto transit conjunct their Sun. However, those in the last two degrees of the sign (born December 19-21) are still going through it in 2008. This transit acts to completely reshape your self-image. The changes inside of you are magnificent, and they spill out of you through different mannerisms, a new look, and a brand new way of presenting yourself to others. This is a time when you are reclaiming your personal power. “Life is what you make it”–you live and breathe this concept now. The things or even people that have held you back from being who you really are tend to be left behind during this transit. Superficial attitudes or manners of self-expression no longer do it for you! Those born before December 19 have recently gone through this period of self-transformation and self-empowerment.

With your ruler, Jupiter, in Capricorn this year, you are more conservative and goal-oriented in general, and certainly less inclined to throw caution to the wind. Practical matters are far more important to you in 2008, and feeling secure, safe, and protected is a driving force.

Eclipses mostly activate your third and ninth houses this year. Issues surrounding learning and sharing knowledge will come to the fore in 2008. Your attention to your immediate environment, and branching out and beyond it, comes into play.

Some key periods in 2008 for you: From December 13-27, you have tremendous energy at your disposal. Life picks up pace considerably, and you feel like you can move mountains…and you probably can! This is the time to go after what you want. The best times for magnetizing what (and who) you want into your life are January 16-24, April 22-30, and November 4-12. Your strongest financial periods in 2008 occur from January 10-20, February 9-17, and November 29-December 7.
