Areas of Expansion in 2016 for Pisces: Partnership, Self-Knowledge, Intimacy, Finances

Your Pisces 2016 Horoscope points to areas of life that are destined to expand and grow.

Until September 9, 2016, your partnerships, relating abilities, and powers of negotiation continue to grow and expand. New partnership opportunities (yes, even plural) can arrive now, or the chance to bring fresh energy to an existing committed relationship emerges. Relationships entered into now are generally successful and happy — at least for the time being, they are mutually beneficial. Sometimes, this transit absolves an existing partnership, but if this is the case, it is likely to come as a relief or it is a “blessing in disguise”. Meeting someone better for you at this point in your life may be a reason for this. Your ability to get along with others is enhanced as you are especially willing to compromise, and you are more appealing than usual. This influence has been with you since August, 2015.

You can negotiate more successfully, and, if applicable, win in legal matters. Legal matters or challenging relationship problems from the past can be resolved, and more casual disputes can be settled amicably as well. 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 career has you working with or before the public, you can safely expect increased popularity. Relationships and partnerships benefit from expansive, warm energy, difficult relationships may be absolved, and/or successful new ones are entered into during this period.

Jupiter rules your sector of career, reputation, accountability, and responsibility. Any of these things can be tied with partnerships during this period. There could be a business partnership established. Your career may involve counseling, relationships, negotiations, one-on-one interactions. A boss could be considered a peer or equal in some cases. There could be increased work with the public. A romantic partnership could form through professional connections, or an existing partnership can strengthen through sharing of professional aspirations. This could also point to legalizing a relationship, or going public with a partnership. Some of you could be relying heavily on the support of a partner or mate in order to succeed in your career.

Potential negatives: You may be attracting partners who are more concerned with freedom than with pairing, or who seem to be quite extravagant or full of themselves. There could be troubles associated with an existing partner’s extravagance or demand for freedom, and you are more likely to experience these things, if at all, in mid-February to March, late May, and mid-August.

However, for the most part, you are likely to enjoy an improved social life during this cycle. You learn a lot through your experiences and interactions with an important “other”. January through June is an especially powerful period for taking advantage of the benefits of this influence. Friendships are strengthened, alliances are made, and partnering matters run smoothly. There is a strong feeling of growth and ambition now. This is a time for going all out, expanding a business, attracting customers and developing important relationships with colleagues.

From September 9th onward, there is a wonderful new focus on your intimate world – a possible deepening of a relationship, or an increased understanding of your own inner workings. Your intimate life enlarges and expands, bringing you more joy and new discoveries. During this cycle, you learn to embrace inner change in order to feel more empowered. There may be more opportunities to find support, financial and/or emotional, but you should be wary of living on credit and borrowing too heavily from the future.

This influence is with you until October 2017, and it’s time to grab opportunities that help you to feel empowered and on top of your life. Conversations are deep and lead to discovery. Sexuality is richer. There can be benefits and support coming your way through others, whether it’s money back from the government, an easier time getting loans or mortgages, a partner’s income increases, or you inherit something valuable. Combining your own resources, talents, and/or money with a partner can improve your own financial outlook.

These things can be related to your social standing, reputation, or career, since Jupiter rules these things in your solar chart. You might find that you’re doing more research in the work you do during this period, or drawing upon others’ talents or resources in order to work towards an important goal.

There may be a metamorphosis of sorts when it comes to your profession or career and life path goals this year.

Potential negatives: Taking on too much debt or relying too heavily on others for support. In late November and late December especially, you would be wise to avoid excesses that can negatively impact your personal income and watch for the accumulation of shared debt. It will be imperative to use caution when it comes to lending and borrowing, particularly with friends, and for investing too much into a cause or long-term project.

Otherwise it’s a strong period for opening yourself up to others and for feeling more confident about your own emotional depths. This is a period when you can quite successfully purge yourself of some of your inner demons, guilt, and buried psychological problems. From later September to mid-October is an especially strong period for intimacy and ridding yourself of addictions. You could be especially interested in finding meaning to your life. Some opportunities can open up for you in November that allow for a little more creative and personal freedom.

Areas of Contraction and Lessons in Simplicity: Career, Reputation, Responsibilities

Your Pisces 2016 Horoscope, the Saturn profile, points to areas of contraction, restriction, and necessary “slimming down” in order to test for stable foundations. There are always areas of life that require more simplicity. Tests may be part of the picture as you learn that life with only growth and expansion can run away with itself.

In 2016, the areas of your life that require a “back to basics” approach are associated with the sector that rules career, profession, reputation, and public life. There may be tests of sorts in these areas of life, as if the universe is checking that the foundations are strong. Things built on weak foundations may very well crack under the pressure of these tests. Those that are strong will endure and strengthen.

This influence began December 23rd, 2014, and is with you until December, 2017. It can be felt most strongly earlier or later in the cycle, depending on whether you were born earlier or later in the sign of Pisces. This year, those born in the first four days of Pisces are most affected.

During this cycle, your career requires important decisions and choices. Important projects may come to fruition, and this can be a time for reaping their rewards, but there can be some disappointment now as well if you haven’t achieved what you wanted to achieve. You are certainly more accountable for what you have and haven’t done.

Projects that you have been working on behind the scenes or that you’ve left unfinished might come to fruition or you could be using them to further your career. Your career might involve more altruistic goals or helping others could figure strongly. You may need to employ some caution with regards to elements from your past, as these might come before the public eye in some way during this cycle.

You may acquire a higher position now, and you are likely to feel the weight of increased responsibilities that come with it. There can be issues to handle with a parent or parent figure, or a boss/authority figure in your life.

In late March and late May, the challenges of this position are more likely to be felt. It can be difficult juggling the needs of a partnership and your increased responsibilities. You are finding more joy in being with others and work or career can feel heavier as it takes you away from this joy. As well, when Saturn squares Neptune, peaking in June and September, it will be especially important to take better care of your health and body. Demands on your time and responsibilities to others can take their toll on you. You might at times feel at odds with your ambitions and responsibilities, perhaps questioning whether your path is a fulfilling one.

While this period can be a tad difficult at times, there are some bright spots, making it a rewarding period overall, particularly if you focus more on long-term benefits and less on short-term frustrations. A more creative way to earn money is quite possible now, as you are drawing upon latent talents and skills that you may never even knew you had, or that have been dormant. There can also be more recognition of the efforts you put forth, as well as increased motivation for tackling tasks that you previously felt were monotonous or uninteresting. These are more likely to be experienced from December forward, and well into 2017 as Saturn picks up a harmonious aspect with Uranus.

Areas of Excitement, Innovation, Independence, and Speed in 2016: Finances, values, Security

Your 2016 Pisces Horoscope, Uranus Profile points to areas of your life that seem to speed up so that you are able to innovate, revolutionize, and take some risks.

In March 2011, you entered a lengthy cycle in which your attitude towards personal finances, as well as your value system, has been changing rapidly. This influence is with you throughout 2016 and beyond, until March 2019. There is a need to be free from some attachments during this long-term cycle. Financial ups and downs are possible, especially in March and August, when some of you could be dealing with the expenses of partnership or when an erratic income or changing values affects a close relationship. Extravagance of a spouse or significant other could be a problem later in 2016 for some of you.

When it comes to income, you are challenged to think outside the box in order to come up with viable plans to improve your finances. Your value system is changing rapidly again this year. April and May especially, you have excellent opportunities to come up with innovative ideas, particularly work and money-related ones. There can be increased opportunities to advance. From December forward, and well into 2017, you can most successfully combine innovation and hard work; dreams and reality. This can be a strong time for realizing a dream or putting business plans into action.

Areas of Change, Purging, & Transformation: Friendships, Groups, Finances, Intimacy, Partnerships, Personality

Your 2016 Horoscope reveals areas of life in which change and transformation take place. It’s a time for “out with the old, in with the new”.

Attitudes towards friends and group involvements continue to transform this year. Challenges with these matters are more likely in November, when attention to an intimate relationship can clash with your friendship and long-term goals. There can be a strong temptation to take on too much, but this can lead to overload. Some of you could encounter problems in a current relationship/friendship, where boundaries can be crossed and concerns about betrayal or level of commitment can surface.

However, opportunities through these changes are likely to present themselves particularly until June. There can be a very beneficial alliance forming, and the sharing of common goals can take you far. There could be friends in high places who help you advance.

In 2016, the cosmos continues to challenge you to improve your financial picture. Your finances are evolving in important ways. Dependencies on others are revealed. This influence ends in March, when an eclipse brings the final push to change and improve the way you deal with money and talent.

Additionally, your personality and your partnerships continue to evolve in important ways in 2016. Your definitions of “me” and “you” are transforming. Issues of personal courage, confidence, and independence come to the fore. Personal appearance, your body, and your image become especially important. 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 strong focus. Particularly around the eclipses in March and September, you’ll be discovering where you stand when it comes to partnerships (September especially) and independence (March especially).

With the North Node moving through your partnership sector all year, you are called upon to face up to your needs and desires to partner.

Your Planetary Rulers in 2016: Neptune and Jupiter are your planetary rulers. Neptune is in your sign again, all year, reminding you of your special magic. A Solar Eclipse in your sign occurs in March, as it did in 2015, offering you the tools to reinvent yourself. Partnerships continue to be in larger focus, but the last quarter of the year brings more depth and intimacy to this theme. Both rulers form a square with Saturn this year, suggesting a real need to mature and add more structure to your life. At times you’re likely to feel resistant to this, perhaps as you prefer not to conform and restrict yourself, but you’re also in a good position to find ways to feed your creativity and follow some rules and schedules at the same time.
