2012: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

2012 Overview for all Sagittarians. Although you’ll continue to experience changes in 2012, dear Sagittarius, life in general is a little more stable this year than it has been lately. Those looking for a partner will have more opportunities in the latter half of the year, and into next year. Until June, work continues to take up a lot of your attention, and you’re enjoying it for the most part. Your very identity is tied up in the services you provide and the job that you do. Reassessment of your professional goals will do you well from January 23-April 13. Search inside for answers. Mid-year, your focus shifts considerably. Your social life begins to take more precedence. By October, with strict Saturn leaving your friendship sector, this is even more likely. Pleasing others is a theme, but you’re also bound to get something back – it’s not a one-way street. In fact, you’re likely to find that others are supportive and interested in 2012 and 2013. While this is generally a good thing, the North Node in your sign until September suggest that your path to greatest fulfillment is through avoiding becoming too dependent on others, and recognizing your independence and ability to stand alone. Love is a strong theme in your life this year. Dealing with the past is likely from mid-May to the end of June. Partnerships tend to fare better in 2012 than more casual love relationships, which can be temperamental. While you’re certainly more companionable in the latter half of the year, dear Sagittarius, freedom is an important theme in any love relationship or partnership you have right now. Alternative relationships hold stronger appeal. There can be plenty of distractions in 2012, and while this is true for everyone to some degree, it’s especially the case for you. Although distractions tend to dissipate towards the end of the year, so may your professional and practical ambitions, so do what you can to push your professional agenda in the first three quarters of the year.

2012 Details.

Until June 11th, Jupiter continues to move through your solar sixth house, and you are likely to see benefits in the areas of work and health, as well as daily routines. This transit enhances your ability to handle the details required to do a good job, and others become more aware of your skills. Benefits may come through work itself, co-workers, or employees during this cycle. Any type of service that you may provide is likely to go well now, mainly because you are finding more joy in being of service. You are more successful in hiring good workers, if applicable, and improvements to your working environment are likely. You find more enjoyment in the work you do, and it is easier than usual to find employment now. You may get a new job during this cycle. Work tends to be very available to you–perhaps even too available in that you don’t know which one to choose. The best way to handle this transit is to take pride in and recognize your usefulness–this is bound to give you a great deal of joy, and you are likely to be rewarded as a result. As well, the more integrity, directness, and honesty you bring to your services and work, the more “payback” you will receive. Health is likely to prosper this year, and medical procedures or programs, if necessary, are more apt to be successful. There may be an inclination to put on some weight, however, if you don’t watch your appetite and/or choice of food. Some people get a new pet during this cycle, and this brings them much joy. 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. Sometimes Jupiter brings too much of something, and this could mean taking on more work than you can handle, getting lost in the details and organization necessary to keep your daily life running smoothly, and so forth. Watch that overconfidence doesn’t lead you to overload your plate with jobs and projects.

From June 11th forward, Jupiter transits your solar seventh house, and you may enjoy benefits through marriage, serious partnerships, common-law partnerships, business partnerships, negotiations, and/or contractual agreements. This is a year in which you are more likely to establish, or solidify, a significant partnership; or you could be enhancing an existing relationship. You can negotiate more successfully than usual, and, if applicable, you are that much more likely to win in legal matters or other forms of official negotiations. Financial benefits could possibly come through partnerships. For most of you who are already partnered, you are likely to find more joy in close relationships due to a more easygoing and tolerant attitude towards others and partnering in general. Legal matters or challenging relationship problems from the past might more easily be resolved now, and even more casual disputes are likely to be settled during this cycle. The need for freedom in your social relationships is strong, however, and if it is not forthcoming, you could feel caged in and restless. You may find yourself taking on the role of consultant or advisor, or you could benefit from help from same. Good publicity may come your way. If your work involves the public, you can safely expect increased popularity now, or you might receive good reviews, feedback, or word-of-mouth opportunities. Relationships and partnerships benefit from expansive, warm energy, or successful new ones are entered into this year. 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. Also, although Jupiter is generally considered a positive and happy energy, close relationships could end during this cycle, but if they do, it’s generally in order to move on to a happier, healthier, more tolerant relationship. A warm, open, and honest approach to others wins you positive new relationships, or enhances existing ones.

The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar seventh house, from June 11th to October 4th. (This transit lasts until June 2013).

Saturn transits your solar eleventh house again this year, ending its transit in October, and can point to the strengthening of ties with a special friend or group. You are becoming more selective about how you spend your time and with whom you spend your time. Some friendships built on weak foundations may be left behind. As well, events or realizations during this period inspire you to question where it is that you are going. Your long-term personal goals come under Saturn’s scrutiny. How you fit in with others, your affiliations with people and groups, and your peers all become serious matters in your eyes. You may come to the conclusion that your personal “circle” or your networks are superficial or somehow unsatisfying. You might feel some disdain for the superficial workings of casual friendships, beginning to feel uncomfortable and self-conscious about “going through the motions”, doing and saying the right things, and so forth. Alternatively, you might meet someone with whom you establish a serious friendship, or you might become a member of a group or affiliation that you devote much of your time to. These themes continue during this period. Weeding out what seems now to be superfluous social associations from your life is very likely at this time as you become more serious about what you want, on a personal level, from your life. You take a hard look at the role you play in others’ lives, and consider exactly what it is that satisfies you and contributes to your happiness, beyond marriage, romance, career, religion, and so forth. At some point through this journey, you should begin to find ways to bring definition and articulation to your innermost wishes and hopes for your personal path. A more solid sense of belonging might be experienced now. You know whom you can rely upon, and they know they can rely upon you!

From October forward, Saturn transits your solar twelfth house. You may discover vague fears and anxieties that act to undermine your confidence during the course of this transit, which frees you up to work on resolving them. This influence lasts until 2015. Contemplation of your accomplishments and your “failures” may figure now. Saturn is turning a critical eye to all that lies beneath the surface, and you are forced to do some serious “spring cleaning” of your psyche during this period. You are facing your own demons–the vague fears that undermine you. We all have skeletons in our closet. What we don’t always realize is that they can seriously undermine our happiness and well-being. Saturn sweeps through your “closet” (the twelfth house), and demands that you take a hard look at what’s been hiding in there. Is this process uncomfortable? For some of us, it can be. But getting rid of outdated attachments, and examining and discarding irrational fears, is not only necessary for further growth and development–it’s ultimately a huge relief. The twelfth house in some ways is a dumping ground for things we have left “undone”. Saturn here wants us to sort through the junk and keep only those things that we truly need for future development. This process can be rather lengthy and it can feel very slow, but if done properly, it can be most rewarding. You tend to deal with endings rather than new beginnings during this transit, as you shed outdated attachments and unconsciously prepare yourself for Saturn’s transit of the first house in 2015, when you will work diligently on your individuality and personal identity. Some of you may be introspective at this time, perhaps isolating yourself from worldly activities and acquaintances a little in some manner. Health issues, generally of a psychosomatic nature, may come to the fore. You may be attracted to alternate ways of living and to self-help or self-study fields.

For those of you born November 26-30 and December 1, and those with a Sagittarius Ascendant of 3 to 8-1/2 degrees, Uranus trines your Sun and transits your solar fifth house this year. Pleasant surprises pepper your year ahead. You’re open to a certain amount of change and progress, and thus attract interesting and sometimes unusual events into your life. A few doors open to you as you express yourself more spontaneously this year. Romance or creativity can be the catalysts for your changing, more open-minded attitude. Fortunately, it’s easier to make necessary changes in your life without making too many waves. You are drawn to new experiences, and they contribute to your growth. You have a twinkle in your eye this year! Your own originality and uniqueness is bound to come shining through. You are slightly more outspoken, daring, and progressive than usual. Events that occur this year tend to show you (and others) a different side of yourself, and could attract new people into your life as a result. Any new friends or connections made this year are likely to be quite different than those you have had in the past. If you want to rid yourself of some unhealthy habits or past conditioning that has been undermining your confidence, this is the year to do it. Some of the people around you might be surprised at your newly found independence, but most will enjoy it. Unexpected or unusual experiences tend to enhance your understanding, and a new perspective on your life is in store. You tend towards unconventional ways of expressing yourself and your creativity. Your hobbies can be out of the ordinary, and so can your relationships with children and lovers, depending on how this cycle is affecting you. Sudden developments or surprises in your romantic life are par for the course with Uranus here. This is a time when you free yourself of personal inhibitions that may have been part of your life in the past. It’s a time of more spontaneous expression. Casual love affairs that have grown stale may be left behind now. You may also attract unusual romances or romantic partners into your life during this cycle. Your personality is sparkling. That twinkle in your eye returns, and the pace of your life picks up. You are more open to change and you are filled with inspiration, creative and otherwise. Unexpected opportunities to express yourself or to break free of bad habits appear this year. It’s time to rework old problems with a fresh perspective and to react to life with more spontaneity.

The influence of Neptune is similar to last year for most of you. 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. However, for those born November 23-26, Neptune squares your Sun this year. There may be some confusion about your goals, or challenges in your close personal relationships, particularly involving family ties. You are more idealistic than usual when it comes to these relationships, which can cause a few problems if you‘re not careful. A noncommittal attitude in your personal life could leave people in your life feeling frustrated with you as you attempt to find yourself. There is a reason behind this “identity crisis”–you are learning to let go of ego attachments. Your self-image is being re-worked, and you are becoming more sensitive to a greater, perhaps more spiritual, sense of purpose. As Neptune’s “fog” lifts, your self-confidence will increase many times over. During this cycle, you may find that you require more sleep than usual and that you are easily drained. This can be a reflection of inner confusion and a natural need for more rest and meditation.

Your ruler, Jupiter, continues to move through the practical, sensual sign of Taurus until June, when it enters curious, communicative Gemini for an approximately year-long stay. When Jupiter is retrograde, this can be a natural time for introspection and the hatching of plans; while you may tend to push forward with more confidence and take action while Jupiter is direct. This year, Jupiter is direct until October 4th, after which it turns retrograde for the remainder of 2012 (and into 2013).

Eclipses in 2012 fall in your solar first and seventh houses and sixth and twelfth houses. Issues of personal courage, confidence, and independence come to the fore. Eclipses also alert you to the need to interact with others–either the public, or through a close partnership. For some, marriage or divorce will be an issue. For most, carving out a personal identity that includes a significant other who furthers their own personal growth will come into focus. Additionally, issues of work, service, and health (both mental/spiritual, and physical), come into focus. Circumstances are such that you need to develop some healthy habits, routines, and schedules. Recognizing your personal limitations in terms of just how much you can give to others and just how much compassion and understanding you can show is essential now. It’s time to structure your life. You are learning to rid yourself of guilt about under-performing. Issues of guilt, worry, and anxiety need to be managed this year.

From June to September, it would be wise to guard against risky financial moves, gambling, and the like. You might find some conflict involving your pursuit of pleasure this year. Unsettled financial matters could get in the way of your desire to indulge in extra-curricular activities. Watch for illusions and self-deceptions in June especially.

A positive connection between your sixth and second houses in March suggests that practical matters are a large focus and are very strong. More security in your job is likely. You are more willing than usual to work diligently for money, and your natural talents are likely to be utilized more in the work you do, as well as appreciated by others. Some of you might also find an opportunity to work at home, or work in real estate or domestic-related fields. For you, peace with the past can figure strongly now. You are a little more deliberate in your efforts, and this benefits you greatly. You are also more persuasive. It’s a strong influence for money and feeling valued in the work you do.
