If Today is Your Birthday: January 26

The Year Ahead

Forecast for January 2009 to January 2010

The New Moon Solar Eclipse in your Solar Return chart suggests that you will instinctively begin a new phase of your life this year. A decisively new direction has come about in your life. This can be an emotionally stimulating time in which you feel the urge to initiate and project, even if you are not quite clear about what you are projecting. Much of the energy in your life can have a magical quality to it as things are just automatically going in a certain direction. It is important to be intuitive at this time and allow the natural course to show you the way to the next step. Surprises pepper your year. New beginnings are in order, and you are bound to feel some level of excitement as the year unfolds.

The Sun conjunct Jupiter in your Return chart indicates a greater awareness of moral issues, and a stronger than usual desire to improve and learn this year. This is a fortunate aspect that suggests optimism and confidence are with you, and you are able to attract fortunate circumstances into your life as a result. Problems are easier to resolve this year. Your social life will likely increase and bring you in contact with more influential, powerful, or simply happy and helpful people. Travel opportunities are likely. It is not uncommon to marry, have children, graduate college, increase income, do freelance work, get a promotion, publish a book, or receive public recognition under this influence. Matters related to universities, higher education, organized religion, publishing, legal affairs, and foreign interests proceed smoothly. This is an excellent year in which to seek advanced training or to further your education. Sun/Jupiter aspects often correlate with ceremonies that formally acknowledge past achievements. The Sun semi-square Venus indicates a possible tendency to overdo pleasures, whether these include over-eating, over-spending, or other such matters.

There is bound to be some struggle between convention and innovation, and between responsibilities and freedom, in your life this year. Attempts to assert your individuality, freedom, and originality could undermine your feelings of groundedness and security. Yet, you are not satisfied when you conform. There may be sudden and unexpected twists in your life that urge or force you to do something different or that free you from old habits. Setbacks tend to be temporary and often lead to new, more creative paths or solutions. Ambivalence is likely and could color many of your interactions. It can be challenging to make one particular decision and stick to it.

The Sun conjunct the North Node in your Solar Return indicates that you may assume a leadership role this year. You are likely to establish connections and/or relationships with people that help forward your own personal growth. Teamwork and camaraderie, as well as meaningful connections, are themes. You feel your life has definite purpose this year. Through your contacts with others, you are encouraged to grow.

Venus sextile Mars in your Solar Return signifies pleasant sexual tension, libidinal attraction, and playful competitiveness in relationships this year. Romance is in the air, as this aspect increases your sensuality, sex appeal, and animal magnetism. Marriage could occur in such a year. Now is also a good time to engage in creative projects and to join with others in pursuing a common goal. If you are involved in competition, you may very well come out a winner.

A conjunction between Venus and Uranus also promises excitement on romantic and social levels. For some, finances are also affected. It may be that you experience sudden changes or breakups with a friend or lover. However, the chance of a sudden new friendship is just as likely. At the root of this is a stronger taste for the unusual. What is familiar is less exciting to you than what is new and different. If a relationship seems to threaten your sense of freedom, you may have an easy time separating from it. Some fireworks in both your social and financial lives are to be expected. Venus also opposes Saturn, and there can be a tug of war happening on romantic levels, and this is between responsibilities to others and the desire to be carefree.

Mercury conjuncts Mars, sextiles Venus, and trines Saturn in your Return chart, suggesting much activity on mental and communication levels. Your mind is especially alert, active, and clear. These influences excite and over-stimulate the whole nervous system. Be careful to avoid cutting words and aggressive driving. You may be involved in frequent lectures, debates, and discussions during the year. You can convey your ideas more powerfully. You are quick to take the initiative and to put your thoughts into action. Adventuresome travel may be part of the picture. You may be more actively involved with young people. Steady progress in mental pursuits figures strongly in your year ahead.

Mars is in harmonious aspect to Saturn and Uranus, and you prefer to work very hard but at your own pace this year. Bursts of creativity and energy help you to further your goals, and a feeling of purposefulness helps to motivate you. You are more able to spot an opportunity when you see one, and it is easier than usual to break free from habits that have previously held you back from going after what you want in life. Work takes on definite shape this year, and you can see results from your efforts, or at least foresee success down the road.

The desire to create is strong, and the ability to realize creative or artistic dreams is with you this year, as you are motivated to bring form to your creative ideas.

The year ahead is bound to be a significant one in your “life story”. New beginnings are in order. Relationships are stimulating and changeful this year. You are eager to take on a challenge and happily engage in friendly competition. Some struggle between freedom and responsibility is likely in many areas of your life, but particularly in love relationships and with your career. A mostly optimistic attitude can carry you far this year. You are very much on track this year when it comes to going after what you want and pursuing your goals.

2009 is a Number Two year for you. Ruled by the Moon. This is a year of potential companionship. It is a quiet, gentle, and mostly harmonious year that is less active than other years. Instead, you are more responsive to the needs of others. If you are patient and open yourself up in a gentle manner, you will attract both things and people. This is an excellent year in which to build and develop for the future. Advice – be patient, be receptive, enjoy the peace, collect.

2010 will be a Number Three year for you. Ruled by Jupiter. This is a year of sociability. It is a friendly time, when it is easy to enjoy life and other people. Focus is on personal freedom, reaching out to others, making new friends, and exploration. You are more enthusiastic and ready for adventure. It is likely to be a rather lighthearted year, when opportunities for “play” time are greater than usual. It’s also a good year for expressing your creativity. Advice – reach out, but avoid scattering your energies.
